Top Hotels Near Antinori nel Chianti Classico in San Casciano in Val di Pesa from NZ$174

"The property is beautiful, but not even close to half the size of what it looks in pictures and very different. There’s actually nothing much to do except wine tour considering it’s very far from Florence and the cabs are very expensive to go and back. We had to wait more than an hour to get a drink and chips in restaurant as there was nobody there between lunch and dinner hour. So if you get late for lunch, there’s nothing to eat until dinner hours except coffee. It would have been nice for place to have at least some sandwiches or snack to grab between meal hours, considering there are not any restaurants nearby. The place can be a good idea if only you want some quiet time away from city. I do not recommend it if you have children or want to do activities!"

"Breakfast was lovely. Our room was huge and very comfortable."

"We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful, comfortable place to stay. The staff we had the pleasure of learning from, Irene and Ivana, made our trip. We loved the wine and olive oil tasting and the cooking class."

"This property was magical. We booked it as a post-wedding place for our extended family. We had 9 adults and 3 children. There was something for everyone! The heated pool was pristine. It was relaxing soaking up the Tuscan sun, the gentle breeze and the breathtaking view of the vineyards in the the distance. The beds were hotel quality, the towels plush and plentiful. Each room was perfectly clean and comfortable. Plenty of closet space and private baths in every room.We asked for dinner in the villa both nights and it was terrific. The first night was a Tuscan dinner with homemade pasta! The second night we had a pizza chef give a class using their centuries-old pizza oven. Everyone loved it and it was DELICIOUS!They even arranged for massages in the front garden for the bride and groom. After a long week of activity, it was much needed and appreciated.The ability to make our own coffee each morning was nice. The kitchen had everything. We had a full breakfast one morning and pastries and fruit the next. Everyone found something they loved. So yummy!Our hosts (Cate and her family) were responsive, friendly and soooo helpful. They even showed up with gifts for the kids as well as water-wings for the pool. They were exceptional.We arrived as guests, we left as friends. We will be back!"

"We loved Castello di Montegufoni. We felt like royalty in our large rooms. The grounds were absolutely beautiful. The bathroom was small but adequate. I plan to go again. This is a great place to stay as a base when visiting Tuscany. "

"We almost hesitate to share this, because part of us wants to keep it our little secret—but it’s simply too special not to talk about.Tucked into the hills above Greve, the property offers sweeping Tuscan views of vineyards, olive orchards and scattered farmhouses. With 270-degree vistas, you can see both sunrises and incredible sunsets each day. Our family of 15 spent two unforgettable weeks there, and evenings quickly became a ritual: sipping their Santo Stefano wines as the sun melted into the horizon.There was endless space for our six children (under the age of 9) to run, play and explore, indoors and out. And there are plenty of areas to sit or lounge around the pools while enjoying the views. The house itself invited us to slow down and savor every moment. Several nights, we prepared traditional Bistecca alla Fiorentina over an open fire—an experience we won’t forget—and gathered for long, memorable meals at tables set throughout the property.And then there’s Elena and her family—truly exceptional hosts. Warm, attentive and never intrusive, they were always there when needed (which was rare), ensuring everything went seamlessly.We left with full hearts, lasting memories, and one shared hope: to return as soon as possible. This was truly a trip of a lifetime to a very special place on earth. P.S. Skip airport and roadside meals on the way in - you’ll want to save your appetite for the region’s incredible meats, excellent wines and unforgettable chees"

"One of the most hotels we have ever stayed at! I would reccomend to anyone. It’s close to Florence, but just far enough away that you feel like you’re in the Tuscan country side. The winery there is also fantastic!"

"We returned last month from our trip to **Villa le Calvane** and I’m still dreaming about our stay. It was truly a masterclass in Tuscan hospitality. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel like royalty, yet it’s their genuine warmth that really stands out. The accommodations are breathtaking. The rooms are impeccably designed and create a sense of peace that is hard to find elsewhere. A highlight was the stunning infinity pool; lounging there with a panoramic view of the rolling Chianti hills was pure magic. Every meal was a celebration of local flavors, perfectly paired with incredible wines. You can even order olive oil from their groves and wine from their vineyards to take home or they will assist with the shipping! It’s rare to find a property that hits a **perfect 10/10** in every category, Villa le Calvane does it effortlessly. We cannot wait to return!" "

"Beautiful property in the beautiful Tuscan region, food was great as was the staff but I do think it important to note that there is no 24hr airport shuttle transportation as listed in the property details. Rather it is a private service that can be arranged through reception based on driver availability and for a pretty steep cost (approximately $200 is US dollars). Be sure to consider this when booking or rent a car!"
