AUTHENTICITY. I think it’s the best place where you can feel the peace of mind you was looking for a long time . Every person is very gentle. The vibes is the vibe of the most beautiful dream you have ever wished to live in Tuscany . Good food, good wine of course . The cure of details it’s what conquered the heart of my girlfriend . From the glasses to the napkins and … one BIG THING, there is a spray released during the day to protect guest from mosquitos . Quality , authenticity , detailes, romanticism, relax . It’s really the best place you can pick for the most unforgettable moment of your life .

Stunningly beautiful grounds, walks, scenic and relaxing pool area, lovely and helpful staff and owner on site, small villages and towns within 20 minutes drive. Delicious small menu, great cakes at breakfast that you can take for later. Romantic and brilliant background sax player outside on our last night (Friday).

Went to the beach one day, grey sand, nice food but headed back to the hotel to lie on the grass by the pool instead. For more casual food (though they do sandwiches throughout the day) head to the small town 10 minute drive away.

The hotel is absolutely wonderful — very peaceful, pleasant, and extremely comfortable. The interior and design are beautiful, with great attention to detail. The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. The staff provide excellent service, always attentive and friendly. The restaurant deserves special mention — the food was delicious and beautifully presented. A perfect place to stay, we will definitely return! ✨

One of the most beautiful hotels I have seen, the flowers in the gardens and the interiors have all been so well thought out.

My only suggestion would be that more staff are definitely needed. For the price of the hotel I’d expect it to be easy to get drinks etc throughout the day but I had to keep going to reception if I wanted to find a staff member and it was very hard to get drinks/lunch by the pool. There is a bar but I didn’t once see a member of staff working there

Great staff and communication despite last minute stay. Massage was affordable compared to most hotels. Setting is in an ideal Tuscan landscape and the food and service delicious. Even made me the perfect martini even thought it wasn’t on the menu. Tried to spend a second night but was fully booked.

Nothing to mention. Perfection for the price

Tucked away in the picturesque rolling hills of the Italian countryside, our recent stay at Relais Sant Elena was nothing short of magical. This hidden gem offers an unparalleled blend of rustic charm and modern comforts, making it an ideal destination for those seeking tranquility and a taste of authentic Italian hospitality.

Absolutely stunning. The property was so relaxing, inviting and charming. Between the pool, the gardens and the common outdoor spaces we wished we had stayed longer. The kitchen staff was so accommodating. We came in late afternoon and they accommodated us for a late lunch, without hesitation.

Everything !!

- Secluded and beautiful land-house with great facilities - Small number of rooms, enough space for everyone - Regional/home-made food - Own Olive Oil, Wine, Beer, Honey (don’t miss the olive oil tasting) - Welcoming yet unintrusive staff - Don’t miss enjoying the welcome drink watching the sunset from the closeby windmill - Natural mosquito repellent is sprayed

- The bar area at the pool could be a bit nicer

One of the most beautiful, well-kept hotels we have ever had the pleasure to visit. The food, which changed daily, was top quality, and the staff was as professional and kind as you will ever experience.

The only issue we had was that the interior walls were not well sound-insulated, but this was a minor inconvenience when compared to the whole experience.

Amazing setting between hills. So, so quiet! You can fully relax. Beautiful buildings and property. Nice size pool, not overcrowded. Very tasty food, breakfast with so much choice that everyone will find something! Air conditioned room, slightly dark on first impression BUT it actually turned as highly appreciated when sun was a bit too much! Plenty of lamps inside if anyone needs more light. Attention to details was beyond amazing! Atmosphere was great, staff very caring but not bothering you, little meaningful things and surprises made stay even better - we didn't want to leave. Dinners served in the garden, with fresh menu for every day, you can eat while watching sunset over mill on the hill with cat sleeping nearby in the last sun rays - little piece of heaven!!!!!

Nothing.
