For owners
Running a villa in Cortona.
Cortona is in our home valley. The office in Torrita di Siena is about 35 minutes away, so we can get to a house here quickly when something needs looking at.
The tourist tax
€2 per person per night for holiday rentals and €2.50 for houses registered as case vacanze, for up to 4 nights in a row. Children under 12 and Cortona residents do not pay.
Half price in winter
The tax is halved in November and from January to March, while December is charged in full. The 2026 rates are the same as in 2025.
Quarterly returns
The return goes in on MOTouristOffice by the 20th of the month after each quarter, even with no guests, and the tax is paid by the same date. We do both for the houses we manage.
What we can do for you
Full management
We rent the house and run it: bookings and prices, guests, cleaning and linen, maintenance, pool and garden, the Italian tax and paperwork. You get a report and a payment every month.

If you would like to meet in person, our office is at Viale Giuseppe Mazzini 17/19/21, Torrita di Siena. Call or write and we will fix a time.
Cleaning, laundry, pool and garden are done by local people we know, and every visit ends with a photo report. Spending above the agreed amount waits for your approval.
The first step is a free evaluation of your house. It costs nothing and does not commit you to anything.

Montepulciano
Vino Nobile cellars dug into the rock under the palaces, and a long main street that climbs to the Piazza Grande.
MAEC, the Etruscan museum
In Palazzo Casali: an Etruscan bronze lamp, the Tabula Cortonensis, one of the longest Etruscan texts known, and an Egyptian funerary boat.
Fra Angelico
The Museo Diocesano has his Annunciation, painted around 1430, and works by Luca Signorelli, who was born in Cortona.
Into Umbria
Lake Trasimeno is about 20 minutes away and Perugia about 45, so Umbria is an easy day out.
