"Amazing property in the hills of San Gimignano, surrounded by vineyards and olive trees."

10.0

AMAZING STAFF, INCREDIBLE BREAKFAST, gorgeous pool area, surrounded by vineyards and olive trees!!!

it was a bit too far to walk into Montepulciano, and we didn't rent a car this week. Enjoyed hanging around the property, and very nice visitors, too. Staff was INCREDIBLE, and owner, Barbara owns the best bakery/cafe in the city centre of San Gimignano. We were served here pastries for her cafe, fresh juices, traditional dishes made right there in the on site kitchen.

"A lovely and convenient base for exploring Tuscany, with great views and friendly service."

7.0

Beautiful location surrounded by Tuscan countryside, perfect for visiting San Gimignano and other nearby towns. The property is charming and peaceful, and breakfast was tasty and fresh each morning.

The room was smaller than shown in photos, and the bed was quite hard while the pillows were very soft. Breakfast, although delicious, was the same every day, and not being able to serve yourself (especially drinks, jams, and cereals) felt a bit awkward.

"Incredible stay in a special place"

10.0

Podere Sant’Elena is a special place and we absolutely loved our stay here! The location is quiet and secluded with incredible views of the rolling Tuscan hills of San Gimignano. It’s close enough to walk to SG on a fairly hilly/rocky track but only takes about 30 mins. We had a car that only took 5 mins and it’s easy to park at the property, so would recommend to hire one to easily travel around. The property itself is stunning with well kept grounds/pool area and everything you need for a pleasant stay. The breakfast is also a special experience with morning sunrise views over SG with lots of delicious options. Last and certainly not least to mention are the staff, everyone is extremely friendly and welcoming that add to overall experience. Silvia in particular was exceptional and couldn’t do enough to help and make our stay a great one! Overall a wonderful trip and we’ll be coming back!

Nothing!

10.0

Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet und sehr speziell im positiven Sinne. Ein sehr familiäres Ambiente und sehr sehr hundefreundlich. Das Personal war außerordentlich freundlich! Großes Pool 🏊🏻 Toller Ausblick auf San Gimignano 😍, das Städtchen ist zu Fuss in gut 30 Minuten zu Fuss erreichbar.

Gibt es ehrlich gesagt nichts
