Location shows countless views of Tuscan countryside. Estate is beautiful with many gardens and greenery. Many amenities to enjoy time. They were very accommodating to my family with small children. The staff seemed to know us on a more personal level from even the time we got in. Our room was amazing with a lot of Tuscan charm. It was great value. Can't wait to come back!

This hotel is beautiful. We came for our honeymoon and enjoyed every day. We actually wish we'd spent more time (we did 5 days, 4 nights), because there's so much to explore in this area of Tuscany. We got upgraded to a lovely room with an outdoor area overlooking the Tuscan hills - cozy and charming on the interior, and we loved the design and architecture, which felt very traditional without trying too hard. We spent our days lounging by the pool and eating breakfast in the outdoor restaurant - it's beautiful, and the staff is very attentive. The highlight of our trip was a Vespa ride through the Tuscan hills, which we booked through the hotel. Someone dropped off the Vespa and gave us a quick lesson — we were a little nervous at first, but it's really fun once you get the hang of it! The concierge team was so easy to work with - one of them printed out directions to three possible destinations, along with photos, which was such a thoughtful and helpful touch. We took him up on his recommendation to head toward Radda, the most charming hillside Tuscan town. We got lunch, strolled the streets, and ended with gelato before driving back. It was just a really fun, lighthearted day. We'd definitely come back and recommend this place to anyone. There was a good mix of couples and families - if you want something quieter, the sister property, The Club House, is adults-only, but we didn't mind having families and kids around. It was still very quiet and pleasant.

I hardly ever write reviews. While I rely on them extensively when planning our travels, I have probably written fewer than ten reviews over the past twenty years. Our stay at Hotel Le Fontanelle, however, was so extraordinary that I felt compelled to share our experience. My wife and I recently spent three weeks traveling throughout Spain and Italy, staying at a number of beautiful, high-end hotels and resorts. Of all the wonderful places we experienced, Hotel Le Fontanelle stands at the very top. This was our first visit to the Tuscan countryside, and I will admit that when we initially began driving through the region, I wondered whether Tuscany could possibly live up to the romantic images we had seen in movies and photographs. Then we arrived at Hotel Le Fontanelle. It exceeded every expectation. The property is simply breathtaking. Perched among the rolling hills of Tuscany, surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and seemingly endless countryside, the views are difficult to adequately describe. “Stunning” hardly does them justice. It is the kind of place where you find yourself stopping repeatedly just to take in the scenery and appreciate where you are. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found somewhere special. We were warmly greeted by Anwar and Duccio, welcomed with wine and genuine Tuscan hospitality. There was an immediate sense that every detail mattered. Duccio personally escorted us to our villa while our car was taken and parked in the property’s underground parking facility. The level of service was gracious, attentive, and effortless throughout our entire stay. We stayed in Villa 39, which offered a spectacular panoramic view across the valley. Our suite was beautiful and spacious, with a large living room, bedroom, and two very generous bathrooms. Waiting for us were fresh flowers, a bowl of fruit, and a complimentary bottle of wine from the estate — small touches that perfectly reflected the thoughtfulness and elegance of Le Fontanelle. One of the highlights of our stay was dinner at their Michelin-starred restaurant, Il Visibilio. The restaurant serves only a very limited number of guests each evening, creating an extraordinarily intimate experience. On the evening we dined, seven chefs were serving just six guests. What followed was remarkable: a 22-course dinner lasting approximately three and a half hours. Every course was a work of art. The presentation, flavors, wine pairings, cutlery, serving pieces, and stemware changed throughout the evening, with extraordinary attention given to every detail. It wasn’t simply dinner — it was a culinary performance and one of the most memorable dining experiences my wife and I have ever had. We also participated in a three-and-a-half-hour private Italian cooking experience with Chef Kevin, where we learned to make our own pasta, gnocchi, and three distinctive and flavorful sauces. It was educational, entertaining, personal, and incredibly enjoyable — another first-class experience that we will always remember. And then there is the pool. Set against the magnificent Tuscan landscape, the pool may have one of the most beautiful views imaginable. Relaxing there in the afternoon with a freshly prepared cocktail or glass of wine, looking across the rolling countryside, was Tuscany exactly as we had dreamed it would be. I could continue describing the property, the food, the service, the scenery, and the countless thoughtful details, but perhaps the greatest compliment we can give Hotel Le Fontanelle came after we returned home. My wife and I talked about our three-week journey through Spain and Italy and asked each other which places had left the greatest impression on us — the destinations we would genuinely travel across the Atlantic to experience again. Hotel Le Fontanelle was at the very top of that list. It didn’t simply give us a beautiful place to stay. It gave us some of the most memorable moments of our entire trip and completely transformed our appreciation for Tuscany. Without question, we plan to return next year. Five stars simply doesn’t seem like enough. Hotel Le Fontanelle is a truly exceptional property, and we cannot wait to return.
