10.0

This place is truly a dream come true! Everything is maintained to the highest standard. The view is absolutely breathtaking – like something straight out of a painting. Waking up to such beautiful scenery every day was an unforgettable experience. The swimming pool is beautiful, and the staff is professional, friendly, and always willing to help. The rooms are spotless and cleaned every day, which made our stay even more comfortable. A special thank you goes to Barbara, the owner, who is an absolutely amazing person. When we arrived, the refrigerator in our room stopped working. After we reported the issue, Barbara immediately arranged a brand-new replacement. Her care for guests and attention to every detail are exceptional. We felt welcomed from the very first moment and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We will definitely return to this wonderful place again. ❤️ Highly recommended!

"Pleasant stay in a convenient location."

9.0

The location and the breakfast were amazing. The staff was really friendly. Great views, lovely pool, overall relaxing atmosphere. They also have a little booklet with nearby restaurants etc.

The pool "closed" at 7pm. I am a huge fan of having a swim in the evening, but unfortunately that wasn't possible. Also, the check in starts rather late (4pm). The prices to purchase additional drinks at the property were rather steep.

"Herrliche Lage mit Aussicht auf San Gimignano, zuvorkommendes Personal, gastfreundlich und flexibel"

9.0

Das Frühstück war sehr auf die Tradition in der Region abgestimmt, immer hervorragend zubereitet und mit Liebe an die Gäste ausgeteilt. Man konnte sich soviel nachholen, wie man mochte. Die aus der eigenen Patisserie stammenden Mehlspeisen waren köstlich. Die warmen Speisen zum Frühstück waren vielfältig. Lediglich Schwarzbrot fehlte.

Es gab nichts zu beanstanden

"Amazing experience in Podere Sant'Elena"

10.0

Barbara was a wonderful host! Her hospitality was very warm and welcoming. Our stay in Podere Sant'Elena was amazing, spacious and authentic place that also includes parking and a beautiful pool overseeing a pastoral view of San Gimignano and the surroundings. Also would like to mention that Sylvia was amazing and helped us with any question we had. We will definitely return and recommend our friends and relatives about this place.
