    • Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    The room feels a bit empty and simple compared to the outdoor area, which is very well-maintained and cared for. A bottle of water costs €4, which seems expensive. It would be nice if complimentary bottled water were provided, as we experienced in other places during this vacation, while keeping additional bottles available for purchase. The breakfast is good, but I expected it to be a little better.

    We stayed for one night. The view is amazing, and the location is very convenient—close to both Montepulciano and Pienza. The swimming pool is a saltwater, chlorine-free oasis surrounded by the beautiful Tuscan hills, and the whole property is well managed and cared for. I really appreciated that the hotel allowed us to check in early, and also that we could leave our cat in the room while we visited Pienza. The room was quite spacious for two people, and since finding parking in Tuscan old towns can be a real challenge, I loved having parking right in front of the hotel.

    The property is beautiful. A restored old castle that keeps its charm while being very comfortable and up to date. The pool is lovely overlooking Valle d’orcia. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful and breakfast was really good, accommodating dietary restrictions. Many Tuscany villages just 10-15’ away by car.

    Stunning - lovely staff - a bit crowded at times
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Triple Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The farmhouse we stayed in was picturesque but lacked any public or outdoor space that wasn't the pool area - which could get crowded (I think if you stay in the palazzo you can also come down and use the pool, so there were more guests than loungers one day). It was a beautiful area and very 'grammable (and the clientele mostly matched - mostly couples) but some quieter garden areas would be nice to give everyone a bit more space especially those who had brought kids. There was a bar but it was a drive away in the palazzo; an honesty bar in the farmhouse itself would have been a nice touch.

    The property has three areas - the palazzo, and two farmhouses each with a pool. They were some way away from each other. We were allocated to a farmhouse. Loved the setting - idyllic views. Pool was amazing. Room was lovely; the triple was actually two rooms with a separate hallway and bathroom - almost a suite. Breakfast was *fabulous* - looking at previous reviews they've clearly upped their game. Staff were super friendly and helpful.

    A Tuscan dream

    Staying at Palazzo Massaini Cavarciano was an absolute dream…the breathtaking views with rolling hills, vineyards, and golden sunsets that looked like something out of a postcard. The infinity pool was perfect, it felt like we had our own paradise. Breakfast was fresh and local, with a great selection of pastries, cheeses, and more. The entire property has this quiet elegance…rustic charm meets understated luxury. The staff was warm, helpful, and made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a place to reconnect with nature, and just enjoy the beauty of Tuscany, this is the perfect place. We honestly didn’t want to leave. Can’t wait to come back!

    There was no AC in the room, and even with lower temperatures outside (20-25°C) it is still not possible to sleep without a ventilator which is very loud. Also our room was lacking mosquito net on the windows.

    Peaceful location in beautiful landscape. Room was spacious, tidy and clean. Breakfast was delicious, with accent on local products. Staff was very polite. Mornings by the pool are my favorite memory. Helps you rest your body and soul. Pienza is 5 min drive away and great starting point for exploring Val d’Orcia.

    Keep into account there is no A/C but only a fan on the ceiling.
