We have visited Florence, Siena etc before but this was our first visit specifically to the Tuscan countryside and smaller towns and villages. We now know why it has been so popular for years. Allessandro's hospitality is genuine and well gauged. He greeted us warmly and with all the information we needed, he was around in his office if we... More

My husband and I stayed at Il Santo for a week with our 19 month old son. The accomodation was wonderful - our cottage had the most amazing 360 degree views of the Tuscan countryside. Alessandro was very friendly and helpful when we needed him and for the rest of the time it felt as though we had the place... More

We have stayed at Il Santo on two occasions (August 2010 & 2011). When I was a young boy I had spent summer holidays near Cassino in southern Italy; but having visited the country on just one occasion in the last 20 years my memories of Italian 'life' were (I thought) a little distant, and the polaroid snaps in the...

We stayed in Girasole apartment in early June and absolutely loved it! Our apartment had a separate entrance and was very private. The accommodation is not luxurious, but is very pleasant, rustic and clean. The owner Alessandro was very friendly and an excellent host. Oh, and the views...Breathtaking!!! Especially the sunset colors! The estate is located a couple of minutes... More

Me and my wife came to Il Santo for the first time in the summer of 2006. Ever since then we've been coming back there regulary every year. Doesn't it say it all? So far we've stayed in two of his apartments and both were great. In fact, I'd say that these were one of the best accomodations ever, and... More

I stayed at Il Santo in Sept 2010 and the experience still is vivid in my mind...the landscape is stunning and the guesthouses themselves are cozy and perfect for a relaxing getaway. Il Santo is situated atop a hill overlooking the town of Greve-in-Chianti and it's only a short walk to get into town. At the property, there is an... More

The location and setting are what makes Il Santo special. The views from the farm are spectacular and we were fortunate to witness the first day of the grape harvest. Sitting outside for dinner each night was a treat especially as the moon was in full spendour. The drive into Greve is easy and we were able to do day... More

We were attending a wedding in Chianti and stayed in Fienile in Il Santo for 4 nights. Accomodation was really pretty and rustic. The view from the patio of the Tuscan countryside was amazing. Alessandro, as the other reviews reiterate, was a complete gentleman. We had no car so he picked us up from Greve the first day and brought... More
