Guest Reviews
- Martyna (10/5): - Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The accommodation is set in a beautiful surrounding, and the design of the place — along with its unique and original touches — was truly impressive. Even though we only stayed for one night, we managed to relax completely and recharge. The owner was extremely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We would definitely recommend this place!
- JOHAN (7/5): Mooi maar te duur - Mooie uitzichten. Dichtbij San Giminiano. Heel behulpzame eigenaar. Te duur voor het aangeboden comfort. Ontbijt was heel simplistisch. Koud in de kamer en verwarming werkt niet.
- Jean (10/5): We have been in Tuscany for two weeks, and our stay with Manfredi at the Rocca degli Olivi was the highlight of our trip - The beautiful fields surrounding the property perfectly set the tone of our stay there. The olive orchards, the walnut trees, the rolling Tuscan hills, and the walled town of San Gimignano in the background…oh my…you could have anything better. Manfredi, our host, went well above and beyond to make our stay very memorable. He gave us a lot of important information about the area (not only San Gimignano but the area all the way down to Siena) only a local could provide. We followed all of his advice and had experiences we never would have had we stayed elsewhere. He even scheduled an appointment with a local doctor and brought us to the appointment. Ginger and Macchia provided comfort and relaxation after a full day of adventures. Breakfast was delightful and his olive oil is one the best I have ever tasted. My only regret is that we didn’t get to stay longer!!! Nothing! Everything was perfect.
- Simona (10/5): Esperienza da ripetere - Pulizia, tranquillità, accoglienza
- Radka (10/5): - Nádherné miesto s výhľadmi na toskánsku krajinu, čisté izby, chutné raňajky - najlepšia foccacia od manfreda. Majiteľ je veľmi nápomocný, odporučil reštaurácie, miesta na výlety. Vynikajúci olivový olej.
- Lauren (10/5): Perfect tuscan stay in every way. - My 11 year old son and I spent 4 glorious nights at this property. After a long train/car trip, we were welcomed with scrumptious meats, cheeses, caprese and bruschetta, and a warm welcome from Manfredi and the sweet cats. The location was perfect - rural and quiet yet close to San Gimignano and other wonderful towns. The new pool is stunning and provided a much needed respite from the 100 degree weather (thank you heat dome in Europe!). Breakfast was plentiful and yummy, especially the homemade focaccia which was addicting. The rooms and public spaces were spotless and tastefully decorated with family heirlooms. Olive oil is produced on the property - ask for a tour of the cellar and bring some olive oil home! I highly recommend Rocco Degli Olivi and hope to return one day! Tip: Discovered hiking trails and swimmable river in Colle di Val d'Elsa - Sentierelsa Trail, 25 minutes away - fabulous and refreshing! PS: Miscommunication between Booking.com and the property regarding our request for a twin-bedded room. We ended up sharing a bed which was not ideal but did not detract from our wonderful stay. Nothing!
- Svetlana (9/5): - המארח Manfredi מאוד נחמד. קיבלנו המלצות מה לראות בסביבה, איך להגיע ואיפה לחנות וגם המלצה על מסעדה, כולל הזמנת מקום. במקום נוף פרנומרי מדהים. חדר מרווח ונקי. המקום קרוב לעיר העתיקה במרחק נסיעה של דקות. ארוחת בוקר טובה, כולל פוקצ'ה טעימה מאוד שמנפרדי מכין בעצמו.
- Alejandra (10/5): - Manfredi is an excellent host! The property is exactly what we were expecting. I would stay again deffinetly!
- Daniël (10/5): -
- Esther (8/5): Magische plek tussen de olijfbomen en druivenranken in hartje Toscane - Dit agriturismo ligt op een prachtige plek in Toscane tussen druivenranken en olijfbomen. Er is geen zicht op de torens van San Gimignano. De afstand naar deze mooie stad ligt op 10 min rijden. Het pand, tuin, zwembad en kelder met olijfolie zijn zeer smaakvol aangelegd en ingericht en worden zeer goed onderhouden. Het sanitair op de kamers en het zwembad zijn nieuw. De eigenaar, Manfredi neemt uitgebreid de tijd om te vertellen over de geschiedenis van het agriturismo, de olijfolieproductie en bezienswaardigheden en restaurants in de omgeving. Hij zet heerlijke cappuccino. Er zijn 2 ontzettend lieve, aanhalige poezen. Het zou fijn zijn als er een zitgelegenheid op de kamer was geweest en een plek waar je zelf koffie of thee had kunnen zetten. Het ontbijt was karig; helaas geen versgebakken brood, verse kaas of verse eieren voor ons. Er was geen gelegenheid om er te lunchen of dineren. Het was einde seizoen half oktober. De eigenaar, Manfredi kwam wat eenzaam en oververmoeid over. Er waren voortdurend werklui over de vloer. Zwembad ging dicht. Er waren veel regels over afsluiten deuren, ramen, contant betalen van toeristenbelasting, 1 drankje bij het ontbijt etc. Het ligt langs een redelijk drukke weg.
- akueiancle (10/5): 很好的住宿經驗 - 民宿主人Manfredi非常樂於助人,停車方便,環境美麗安靜,早餐很好吃,咖啡很好喝,距離San Gimignano只有幾分鐘的車程很方便
- Siti Zaharatul Akma (10/5): Manfredi and the hosts Ginger & Machia make you feel right at home. - Amazing surounding, very giod location
- Maria (10/5): A wonderful experience at this cozy Bed and Breakfast - We had a wonderful time at this cozy b&b. Manfredi the host was very nice and gave us a lot of tips for what to do and where to go. He also made a good breakfast which we enjoyed on the terrace with a wonderful view. We also enjoyed the new pool area and the two beautiful cats. A wonderful experience!
- Michał (6/5): Starnardowy obiekt zlokalizowany przy drodze. Zimny basen, małe pokoje. - zimna woda w basenie, bardzo małe pokoje, lokalizacja budynku bezpośrednio przy drodze.
- Kaitlyn (10/5): - Manfredi is very attentive to his property and to his guests. His homemade focaccia bread is to die for and his cappuccino is a nice wake up in the morning. He has great communication with you if you have great communication with him. The scenery is to die for, the pool was a nice touch, and the cats are so cute!!! Ran out of hot water pretty fast but I was always the second in 😆
- ineke (10/5): De moeite waard - De omgeving en de lieve gastheer en uiteraard het verblijf
- Francesca (6/5): - Bella la struttura esterna e la piscina anche se molto piccola e con poche sdraio ed ombrelloni, di certo non sufficienti per tutti gli ospiti. La stanza è molto scarna, pochissima luce, nessuna zanzariera pur essendo pienissimo di zanzare, colazione non inclusa.
- Adéla (10/5): - We love this place. Manfredi is really good man and his olivě oil… mmm yummy :)) We look forward to coming back here again.
- paul (9/5): Excellent week-end toscan - L’emplacement dans la belle campagne toscane . Idéal pour rayonner dans cette belle région. La piscine qui permet de faire une pause entre 2 visites . Le propriétaire qui est très accueillant de bons conseils et qui parle très bien le français. Rien
- Tomislav (10/5): Odmor za dušu u vili okruženoj predivnom prirodom. - Lokacija i domaćin odlični.
- Gatti (10/5): - La camera spaziosa e ben arredata. Bellissimo panorama sulle colline toscane.
- Jolanta (10/5): - Stary dom z duszą, pięknie położony wśród winorośli i gaju oliwnego, właściciel bardzo pomocny i zaangażowany, pomógł nam zaplanować zwiedzanie okolicy. Smaczne śniadania z własnej roboty focaccią i naturalną oliwą z oliwek- również produkcja właściciela. Do dyspozycji gości kameralny basen z pięknym widokiem.
- Annemieke (10/5): Mooie plek, met veel persoonlijke aandacht - Geweldige locatie, heel centraal gelegen om alle bezienswaardigheden in de buurt goed te bezoeken. De eigenaar, Manfredi heeft hier ook veel goede tips voor. Daarnaast hadden wij een hele comfortabele kamer met een priveterras. Bij het ontbijt inderdaad de al veel geprezen foccacia met lekkere cappucino. En aan het einde van de dag is het prettig afkoelen in het nieuwe mooie zwembad. Niets
- Silvia (8/5): -
- Stefan (9/5): - Wunderbare Umgebung, Aussicht sehr schön Tolle Terrasse Technisch (WLAN, Mobil-Phone) etwas abgeschieden. Frühstücksauswahl etwas begrenzt.
- Giulia (9/5): -
- Thomas (9/5): Un endroit à vivre. - Monsieur Mandredi est une personne très agréable et très touchante. La villa est merveilleuse et très bien située seulement à 3km de San Giminiano. Les vues depuis la maison sont à couper le souffle. C’est la Toscane à perte de vue. La piscine est parfaite et on peut y passer la journée tellement on y est bien. Enfin, pour les amateurs de chats, Ginger et Macchia sont super sympas et apprécient les câlins.
- Federico (10/5): Un'oasi di tranquillità - Abbiamo soggiornato in famiglia alla Rocca degli Olivi e siamo tornati a casa davvero soddisfatti. La struttura è meravigliosa, immersa nel verde e ogni angolo è curato con gusto, creando un’atmosfera accogliente e rilassante. Il gestore, Manfredi, è attento e disponibile, dimostrando grande cura nel far vivere agli ospiti un soggiorno speciale. Consiglio questa struttura alle famiglie che desiderano rilassarsi e godere di un panorama suggestivo.
- Paola (9/5): Vacanza rilassante in ambiente molto piacevole. - Posizione perfetta, lontano dal caos della cittadina. Ambiente molto familiare e accogliente Nulla
- Silke (10/5): Traumhaftes Anwesen und tolle Gastgeber-besser geht’s nicht! :-) - Wir waren begeistert…Eine traumhafte Lage, überall herrliche Sitzgelegenheiten um die schöne Landschaft zu genießen. Ein wunderschöner Pool und herrliche, große, sehr gut ausgestattete und saubere Zimmer! Wir waren auf der Durchreise, hatten aber einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt und kommen ganz bestimmt mal wieder an dieses außergewöhnlich schöne Fleckchen in der Toskana. Nochmals ein ganz dickes Dankeschön an Manfredi, seinen Sohn sowie an Ginger, Macchia (die beiden tollen Katzen ;-) ! Alle waren sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und haben uns einen rundum tollen Aufenthalt beschert! Es gibt absolut nichts auszusetzen!!!!
- jean-jacques (10/5): Exceptionnel. - Magnifique endroit, au calme et parfaitement situé avec de très belles prestations, chambre avec terrasse magnifique et piscine d'exception. De plus Manfredi est un hôte très agréable qui est de très bon conseil, il aime sa région et sait bien la présenter en français qui plus est . Rien.
- james (10/5): Fantastic hotel - Manfredi is a perfect host in a truly beautiful setting.
- Giacomo (6/5): Pleasant -

- Jenny (10/5): Family trip - Beautiful property, great time to spend with family!
- James (10/5): Everything we hoped for and more - A simply stunning location. Our stay was everything we hoped for and more and we were very sad to leave. Manfredi is a superb and welcoming host who makes the best focaccia in Italy! We were treated to fresh loaves each morning for breakfast along with his own olive oil. He even had English breakfast tea and milk which was brilliant as a tea drinker travelling in Europe. Ginger and Macchia, the cats, were very cute. A must stay if you are in the area.
- Jeroen (9/5): Superb - Manfredi makes the perfect focaccia, his brother knows
- Tomaz (10/5): Exceptional - The location is perfect – just a short distance from the town, offering stunning views, a lovely pool, and beautifully kept grounds that exude charm. Mr. Manfredi, the host, is incredibly welcoming, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to making his guests feel at home. The breakfast is a real highlight – authentic, crafted with local ingredients, and full of personal touches from the host. The accommodation itself is spotless, comfortable, spacious, and tastefully arranged. The entire estate feels warm and inviting, making it a perfect place to unwind and an ideal base for exploring the heart of Tuscany."
- Carolyn (10/5): - Our host was awesome! He gave us great ideas for what to see in this region of Tuscany. He was so gracious and concerned about our comfort. He even made homemade focaccia bread for us for our breakfast! The lodging was comfortable and the setting beautiful! We were so happy with our stay and would not hesitate to visit again!

- Elinor (10/5): Exceptional - We had such a great time in this lovely place with a very unique atmosphere.! The owner has welcomed us so nicely and the room was neat and comfortable. I wish we could stay more than just one night but we will come back next time for sure.
- Andre Felipe (8/5): - Great place to stay - but no breakfast.
- Viola (10/5): Exceptional - The property is included amid lush greenery...kept spot clean and only 5 min drive from the main town san gimignano. If you want a true toscany experience this hotel is it.
- Experience614422 (10/5): Exactly what we were looking for. - We spent 2 nights and had a fabulous time. The property and buildings are clean and impeccably well maintained. Very tasteful, with an historic background and feel, yet with modern amenities. The owner Manfredi is the best and now is a newfound friend. He’s there for you as much or as little as you want, and happy to make great suggestions for what to see and do in the area. Others staying there were returning guests, which is telling. Breakfast was very good as well. Gorgeous views across the hillsides and vineyards. We will definitely return.
- Mary (10/5): Just what I needed - lovely weekend in historic home in the heart of Tuscany. - Family owned which is always a plus. Staff was so friendly and knowledgeable. The property was beautiful. It is very close to San Gimignano. The cats were so friendly. Nothing
- Mo (9/5): Superb - The host is very nice and welcomed. He also shows us around the premise. The surroundings with amazing parnaomric view is perfect for pictures. We have a decent room with comfortable bed. The location is quite closed to the old town with few mins driving. The host briefs us where to park the car and recommendation on restaurants which we enjoyed the dinner. Breakfast is included which is a bonus to us. We'll come back again and stay longer. We're fine with everything
- Mert (10/5): Exceptional - Great host and amazing location.
- Gabriela (10/5): Lovely stay in the heart of Tuscany - Beautiful place nestled in a quiet and breathtaking setting, close to our favorite San Gimignano, making it a perfect base for exploring Tuscany. The area is peaceful, but still right in the heart of everything worth seeing. The host was incredibly helpful, offering excellent recommendations for local spots and restaurants. Everything perfect
- Kadrie (10/5): Perfect venue with a very nice host - Everything. Unique scenery, nature, natural stone, it s a blessing for the eyes
- Chantal (9/5): Superb - Nice room, beautiful place. Nice people that run the place Everything is nice and good
- Antonis (8/5): Very good -
- Ioannis (8/5): Very good - Manfredi was a very kind, polite and helpful host. He was also kind enough to give us recommendations on the area. The location is great, very close to San Gimignano, quiet and the view just incredible. The building is very beautiful and charming from looking at it from the outside. The room was clean and we were offered a daily cleaning. Very relaxing to sit outside and enjoy your coffee while looking at the nature. The WiFi was working sufficiently. Some suggestions from our side would be a mosquito net (at least at the window) so that you can let the fresh air come in. Otherwise flies and insects come inside the room. A trash can in the room, apart from the bathroom, would be also handy. A nice to have option for some guests would be a small TV. A second towel hanger in the bathroom would be much appreciated, as there was not enough space to hang a second one. Hand soap and shampoo were provided but unfortunately no shower gel. Lastly, an extra pair of pillows with pillowcases would make our sleep even better
- Charlotte (10/5): Lovely bed and breakfast, great views , friendly host - Manfredi the host was very friendly and welcoming. The rooms were clean and nicely decorated and had air con. The breakfast was very enjoyable with a lovely view. We loved the cats ! Quiet location but easy to get to San Gimignano
- Saverio (10/5): Wonderful, fantastic, and amazing host. - Manfredi is the best host you could ever ask for in Tuscany. Direct, honest and easy to work with. He made our vacation amazing! Close to San Gimignano, everything accessible. Too hot in August :)
- Kalin (9/5): Superb -
- Janja (10/5): Exceptional - Rocca degli Olivi is special place🌞 breakfast served in terrace with wonderful view.Mr. Malfredi is very kind,he gave us many recommendations. We enjoyed,and we will be happy to come back😀🐱🐱
- Ludvig (10/5): A nice and quiet break from the busy life that so many people live nowadays. - It was situated beautifully in the hills just outside of San Gimignano with lush olive and grape trees surrounding it. The terrace outside offered a stunning view of the Tuscan countryside. We loved the fact that the estate carried so much history, dating back some 250 years, while belonging to the same family all these years. It is clear that they treat this place with love, since it’s oozing of it. That we didn’t stay longer!
- Benjamin (10/5): - Very nice place. Beautiful view. Very authentic house
- Konstantina (10/5): Fantastic - The landscape is amazing. The room we stayed was beautiful, Manfredi really polite and hospitable. A great place to stay. We hope to visit again in the future.
- 740kenv (10/5): Amazing stay at a Beautiful, Authentic Farm House B&B atop of its own olive grove. A highlight for sure! - Oh my goodness!!! - if you want to experience true Italian hospitality in an amazing farm house B&B with beautiful views, a short drive to San Gimignano, and the BEST host we have ever met...then Rocca degli Olivi is the place for you. When we arrived Manfredi was waiting for us, greeted us warmly, showed us around his amazing property and then we checked in to our room. The room was perfect, nice cold a/c, clean crisp sheets, remodeled yet still rustic room, beautiful view from the terrace, and very quiet at night. Breakfast was served on the main terrace overlooking the olive trees that give this property its name - and was very delicious and fresh. Manfredi was so helpful with all his directions of where to park as we got to San Gimignano (which kept us out of the dreaded ZTL's) and even gave us a few amazing recommendations when we asked for his advice as to what he would suggest we should experience. We took the Chianti Route on our trip to Rome and WOW! so beautiful! We plan on returning later when the weather is a bit cooler and look forward to staying once again at Rocca degli Olivi!
- Mariane (10/5): Very beautiful place - The owner is a very nice guy and very kind. He show us all the place , it’s simple but very clean and beautiful. The breakfast was made for us with all fresh items, was very good.
- Kevin (10/5): Exceptional place to stay. - Manfredi was an exceptional host going way beyond what I would expect to make our stay enjoyable. The room was perfect, he gave us a choice of two rooms, and we took a very comfortable private room away from other guests. Would highly recommend this stay to any body wanting to stay in Sam Gimignano.
- Muriel (10/5): Fantastic location. Great host! - The most beautiful property in a tranquil setting run by an amazing host, Manfredi. The property has been in his family for more than 100 years. Super helpful with advice on how to make the most of your trip. Will come back and stay longer next time. Can get to San Gimignano in 5 mins.
- Jennifer (10/5): Stay with the cats! - Really super stay! Great base for exploring all the beautiful towns. Our room was very clean, very spacious, and very comfortable. Nothing!
- Mariana (8/5): Very good - The place is beautiful! And the owner is really nice and welcoming! I really liked and felt the real vibe of Tuscany! Wifi is not really good!
- Corina (10/5): Absolutely fantastic :) - The hosts (cats and human) have just been wonderful. The owner is very kind, knows a lot about the region, can give you many recommendations, and makes an excellence cappuccino. The view to the countryside side is exceptional and you can enjoy it every day while having a great balanced (continental) breakfast. It is a quiet little paradise not only for the cats living there but also for its human guests :) We enjoyed our stay very much! Thank you for an amazing time Manfredi, Macchia and Ginger :) We are both tall people, so the bed was a bit short for us. But other than that still very comfortable :)
- Hoai (10/5): We love Manfredi!❤️ - Beautiful old house, spectacular view and lovely Manfredi.
- Lien (10/5): Exceptional - the manager is very nice

Very nice breakfast - by nice weather you can eat outside with a beautiful view. We liked our stay Very much. The hotel has a good location to make different trip around Chianti area.

- Richard (9/5): Warmly recommended - perfect for exploring the area - Manfredi was an exceptionally welcoming host - professionally attentive and balanced with warmth and enthusiasm. Stunning views - true 360-degree Tuscany - high up on the hill and but 5 minutes drive from San Gimignano. Well kept grounds - olive trees abounding and wild board snuffling around at night in the groves. Ably supported by the brother and sister pairing of cats - as they say dogs have owners but cats have staff and we all became their staff during the stay.
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Miscode (10/5): Wonderful stay at Rocca degli Olivi - Our family of 5 stayed at Rocca degli Olivi and we had a wonderful time. We got a very nice room with even a better view. The large room could accommodate us all. It was very clean and had all the comfort you need. As the weather was good, we could have breakfast outside on the porch. The breakfast was very extensive and you will not leave the table hungry. Rocca degli Olivi is situated very close to the old centre of San Gimignano, if you are up for a hilly walk you could go by foot but we took the car. The owner Manfredi does everything he can to make you feel at home and is very knowledgeable about the surroundings. If you are looking for a location where you can relax and want to escape the busy town centres, this is the place to be.
- Nicolas (10/5): A hidden gem right next to San Gimignano city, the ideal location for a stay you will never forget - We found this place last minute before visiting San Gimignano itself and absolutely love it. It has a great Tuscany feeling, the rooms are spacious, clean, luxurious... and the host is very welcoming and professional. Don't forget to buy their home made olive oil as a souvenir. The views around the rooms into the Tuscany hills are breathtaking. We stayed for one night but we would have stayed longer if we had the time, we'll book here again in the future for sure. Nothing to report, it was all superb.
- Luciana-ionela (10/5): A must-enjoy location - Amazing view, nice smell in the property, high cleaning, excellent breakfast, sociable host.
- Victor (10/5): Oasis among olives - Rocca degli Olivi in itself is an oasis of happiness, but what makes it truly wonderful are the ones taking care of it. You can feel Manfredi's passion in everything around the property and when you leave, you just feel genuinely full of life. That we did not stay more than 1 night :) which means we must return.
- Alejandro (10/5): Exceptional -
- Melanie (10/5): Exceptional - Manfredi was an amicable host, helpful concerning planning of daytrips troughout the region, served lovely breakfast and probably makes the best cappuchino in town. Lovely big and clean room with air conditioner and a nice and modern shower. In case I'll returm to San Gimignano I stay here again. The cats Macchia and Ginger are pure gold. --
- Adrian (10/5): Excellent location - Excellent location to visit many towns in Tuscany and a great start point for the wine road. The breakfast was tasty and the staff was very nice all the time. The room was very clean and comfortable and the terrace view was breathtaking.
- Noemiterenyi (9/5): Superb - Extremely friendly staff (the cats and the employee too :)), good location you can easily reach San Gimignano by bike and car too. Good breakfast and perfect cappuccino. The room is friendly and cosy.
