Full management
One point of contact for the whole villa.
Renting out a villa in Tuscany from another country is hard work. Guests write at all hours, and the Italian tax system has its own forms and deadlines.
MANERI takes the whole operation off your hands: bookings, guests, cleaning, maintenance, pricing, marketing and Italian tax compliance. You deal with one point of contact and pay one fee, and each month you get a report that shows every number.
We manage 12 villas in Tuscany, from the Lucca hills and Volterra to Chianti and the Val d'Orcia.
What we handle
The work we do for each villa.
From the listing to your annual tax certificate, this is what we take over.
- 01
Bookings and pricing
Your calendar, your rates and every platform the villa is listed on. We set the price week by week instead of leaving one fixed rate for the whole season.
- 02
Guests
Enquiries, check-in and anything that comes up during the stay. Guests talk to us, never to you.
- 03
Cleaning and linen
Cleaning between every stay and hotel-standard linen, done by a team that already knows the house.
- 04
Maintenance and care
Pool, garden, small repairs and the seasonal work. We look for problems before your guests find them.
- 05
Photography and marketing
Professional photos, the listing itself, and the direct bookings that come in through our own website.
- 06
Tax and compliance
Cedolare secca, CIN, F24 payments and your annual certificate. You never have to deal with the Italian tax system.

These are results from specific villas and are not a promise for yours. We give you an honest, property-specific estimate before you commit to anything.
How it works
From the first call to your first payout.
Five steps. Once the villa is live, you get a report and a payment each month.
- 01
First conversation
You tell us about the villa. We tell you honestly whether it is a fit and what it could earn.
- 02
Assessment and pricing
We assess the property and set its positioning and prices, with a revenue forecast based on real data from comparable villas.
- 03
Onboarding
Photography, the listing, pricing setup, CIN and compliance, and coordinating the suppliers.
- 04
Live
We run bookings, guests, cleaning, maintenance and care of the property.
- 05
Every month
You receive your report and your payout. You do not need to do anything else.
Step one is a conversation. It is free and does not commit you to anything.
Tax and compliance
Italian taxes, handled for you.
If you own a villa in Italy and rent it for short stays, Italy taxes the income at a flat 21% or 26% (cedolare secca). We operate the withholding, issue your annual income certificate, and handle the F24 payments and your CIN.
Owners who live abroad never have to deal with the Italian tax system directly.
Fees
One fee, no surprises.
We charge one management fee for day-to-day operations, plus a commission on the bookings we generate.
- Management fee
- Covers day-to-day operations
- Commission
- Only on the bookings we generate
- Suppliers
- No mark-up on their bills
- Hidden costs
- None
Every number appears in your monthly report, so you always see where the money goes. Your exact rate depends on the villa and the level of service you want. We quote it after we have assessed the property, once we both know what it needs.
Where we work
Eight areas of Tuscany.
Our villas sit between the Lucca hills and the Val d'Orcia, and we cover the areas below. If your house is in or near one of them, we can help.
FAQ
Questions owners ask.
If yours is not here, write to us or ask for the free evaluation.
What does MANERI do?
MANERI is a luxury property management company in Tuscany. We manage villas for their owners from start to finish: bookings, guests, cleaning, maintenance, pricing, marketing and Italian tax compliance. You pay one transparent fee and receive a monthly financial report.
My villa stays empty most of the year. Can you just check on it?
Yes, with Home Watch: scheduled visits, a photo report after each one, and a call within 24 hours if something is wrong. It starts from €110 a month, VAT included. You can build a free quote on the Home Watch page.
How much does villa management cost in Tuscany?
One management fee plus a commission on the bookings we generate, with no supplier mark-ups or hidden costs. The exact rate depends on the villa and the level of service, and we quote it clearly after assessing the property.
Do you handle Italian taxes for owners?
Yes. We handle short-term rental tax from start to finish: the cedolare secca withholding (21% or 26%), your annual Certificazione Unica, F24 payments and CIN registration. Owners who live abroad never deal with the Italian tax system directly. The details are in our tax guide.
I don't live in Italy. Can you still manage my villa?
Yes. Most of our owners live abroad. Because the villa is in Italy, its rental income is taxed in Italy, and we are your point of contact for the whole operation, tax and compliance included. You do not need to be here to run it.
Where in Tuscany do you operate?
Our villas are between the Lucca hills and the Val d'Orcia. We cover Chianti, the Val d'Orcia, Valdichiana, the Siena countryside, the Florence countryside, the Pisa area, Volterra and Forte dei Marmi.
How do you decide what my villa should charge?
We assess your villa and build a revenue forecast from real data on similar villas, not inflated projections. If your villa cannot realistically reach a number, we tell you before you sign.
Can I still use the villa myself?
Yes. We agree your personal-use dates up front and block them in the calendar, so your own stays are always protected.
How and when do I get paid?
Once a month. Along with your payout you receive a full line-by-line report of gross income, tax, our fee and your net.
How do I get started?
Ask for a or write to us. In the first conversation we tell you honestly whether your villa is a fit and roughly what it could earn, before you commit to anything.
