"Exceptional views from this property.
The room was for 4. It had a rustic farm house vibe.
Unfortunately there was mold in the bathroom and a nest of spiders in the beams above the bed (which my husband was happy to sleep under - so we ignored).
There is no noise insulation between floors and you can hear other guests above you, but everyone was respectful and noise minimal.
The spare blankets in the cupboard needed a wash and were unusable. Otherwise room was clean and comfortable.
The infinity pool was great and generally quiet creating a relaxing atmosphere.
You need a car if you stay in one of the annexes otherwise you would have to walk up a hill.
We had access to a balcony and a common area. The kitchen was accessible but you are not allowed to use unless you book an apartment.)
Breakfast was very good and the terrace is amazing.
We only had interaction with two staff members. One was lovely, friendly and helpful. The other was the complete opposite, which ruined some of the shine.
Overall lovely place to stay, fantastic grounds and we will definitely try and visit again!"
"We loved our stay. The hotel had really nice breakfasts included and the pool was fantastic after a hot day walking around the old city. We had a standard room and we were expecting it to be small. It was very small - it was difficult to find space for our cases and the shower was so small that it was hard to use it without banging your elbows. The room did include a nice outdoor balcony which made up for the super small room. The hotel was an easy walk into the old city."
"We were a group of 10 who just returned from a 4 night stay at this beautiful hotel. It exceeded our groups expectations. It is quaint, in a beautiful setting. The staff was excellent, accommodating any request that was made. Restaurant is very good, included breakfast was great, many choices. We enjoyed the pool and the bar servers at the pool were excellent. Overall a wonderful stay and would highly recommend. "
"This is about 30 minutes outside Florence but a really cool, quiet location! It was nice to be outside of the cities and take a break from the crowds. The hotel had a ton of amenities and the staff was super nice. You would need a car if you are staying here (unless you want to pay for cabs), there is free parking though. "
"Really nice, quiet place to stay with an incredible view and convenient to San Gimignano. The staff and service was top notch with very friendly poolside service and at the restaurant.
The room accommodations and beds are very comfortable, but the AC had trouble keeping up with the 90 degree days…especially with a mezzanine sleeping space. Regardless, we had a wonderful time.

"Amazing place. Only 10 min car drive from Porta Romana but far away from city noise. Huge property on a hill with beautiful views of the valleys and olive orchards. Ideal place to relax and enjoy Tuscan sun by a beautiful pool. Great breakfast buffet and restaurant. "
