Villa Fontelunga

We had an incredible time at Villa Fontelunga. From our first greeting from Paolo we felt at home. The staff are incredible, especially Greta and Emily who are friendly and very attentive. The grandeur, facilities and location of this villa made for a relaxing base from which to explore the Tuscan countryside. I think we’ll have to return at some stage …

The hosts are awesome and authentic. You must try their affiliated restaurant…..Mateo and his staff are something else. You can hire a car and travel with great advice from the hosts. Truly one of the great experiences of our 8 week European holiday. We will go back. Just loved it

Just absolute perfection…beautiful accommodation a great balance of luxury and authenticity and they had thought of every detail. The staff were lovely and Philip gave us a restaurant recommendation with a view and sunset that was so beautiful it almost brought me to tears. Close to lots of lovely towns to visit or just turn off and sit by the beautiful pool and enjoy the view which never gets boring.

An outstanding experience from the minute you arrive until you leave. Paolo and Philip run both Fontelunga and Borgo 69. We were upgraded to Borgo 69 and it was beautiful beyond words. The decor, the peaceful and beautiful surroundings not to mention the restaurant on site were outstanding. Perfectly positioned o explore the best Tuscany has to offer, this property has a stunning infinity pool to relax in at the end of the day. Your boys take the time to get to know you and cater to your every need. An exceptional experience.

Villa Fontelunga is among the finest boutique hotels we have ever stayed at. The Villa is centrally located in the heart of Tuscany; 1 hour from Florence, about 40 minutes from Sienna, and 30 minutes from Arezzo and Cortona. The proprietors, Paolo and Philip, and their joyful and professional team (Greta and Erica) are extraordinary hosts. We took our family ( 17 adults and teenagers) to the Villa for a week of relaxation, tours to Firenze, Arezzo, wineries, Sienna (where we had a fabulous cooking lesson from Scuola di Cucina de Lella), and superb local restaurants. Fontelunga deserves its Michelin rating. For us, it was as good as any five-star accommodation. It has 9 en-suite rooms including a separate villa, magnificent views of Tuscan hills and delights for all—a beautifully maintained swimming pool (necessary for 90 degree heat) and tennis court, outside courtyard for dining and wonderful breakfast room. Many excellent restaurants were only 10-15 minutes away. On several evenings we decided not to leave the hotel and the Villa arranged to bring in lunches and dinners, which were phenomenal. We cannot say enough about Paolo and Philip and their team. We felt at home there and the Villa Fontelunga team became part of our family during our stay. We cherished our visit and cannot wait to return.
