Villa Dianella

From the moment I arrived at Villa Dianella, nestled in the heart of Tuscany near Vinci, I knew my stay would be nothing short of magical. This 16th-century hunting lodge turned luxurious wine resort, with its rich history and breathtaking views of the Tuscan hills, offered an experience that was both enchanting and deeply relaxing.

As I wandered through the lush gardens, I was struck by the villa's serene beauty and the panoramic vistas that surrounded it. The infinity pool, overlooking the olive groves and vineyards, was a tranquil oasis where I spent many peaceful hours soaking up the Tuscan sun.

The charm of Villa Dianella extended to my accommodation as well. My suite, one of the villa's elegantly appointed rooms, was a perfect blend of classic Tuscan elegance and modern comfort. The attention to detail in the decor, with its fine furnishings and luxurious amenities, made my stay exceptionally comfortable.

Dining at Villa Dianella was a highlight of my visit. The on-site restaurant, Il Magazzino, served exquisite Tuscan cuisine made with the freshest local ingredients, many sourced from the villa's own gardens. Each meal was a culinary adventure, perfectly paired with the villa's own exquisite wines. The wine tastings and olive oil samplings, hosted in the villa's ancient cellars, were not only informative but a delightful sensory experience.

The staff at Villa Dianella deserves special mention for their warm hospitality and impeccable service. They went above and beyond to ensure my stay was memorable, offering personalized recommendations and sharing insights into the local culture and history.

One of the most unforgettable experiences was the bicycle tour through the surrounding countryside. Riding through the picturesque landscape of vineyards and olive trees, with stops at charming local villages, was like stepping into a postcard of idyllic Tuscany.

As I departed Villa Dianella, I took with me not just memories of a luxurious stay but a deeper appreciation for the beauty and rich heritage of Tuscany. Villa Dianella was more than just a place to stay; it was an immersion into a lifestyle where beauty, history, and the joys of the palate are celebrated in every moment. I am already longing for my next visit to this Tuscan paradise.

I loved the estate, it's amazing, very nicely decorated and smelled like wine when I arrived!
The gardens and pool are very beautiful, the view from the room and specially at sunrise was magnificent. The staff were friendly, specially the breakfast staff.

Amazing place, delicious pasta, great wine & very friendly stuff. Loved staying here - especially with our dog!

We loved everything about our stay. This place is incredibly tranquil, the staff is very kind and helpful and the view is breathless. Also, we learned a lot about the delicious Chianti wine.

My friend and I are traveling through Tuscany with a campervan. On a website I found that this wine villa allows guests to stay with their camper in the parking area for the night. There are no facilities, but that is no problem for us. It’s an amazing spot with view on the wine and olive yards.

We made a reservation for a wine tasting & tour through the villa. The tour guide was Valentina, she did an amazing job and knew a lot about wine. She speaks several languages and surprisingly also Dutch! I loved the history of the villa and to hear about the several products they make here nowadays. It’s not only wine and olive oil, but also cosmetics and candles.

Unfortunately the restaurant was closed for dinner today, but the female (!!) owner of the winery and Valentina gave us some great recommendations. It’s a 20 min walk to town. Note that about 300 meters doesn’t have a pedestrian pathway, but there’s enough grass on the roadside to walk on. Not sure how that looks like in summer though with high grass!

I recommend this place if you are looking for a wine tour & tasting. They are doing some construction to expand their hotel availability, it looks so beautiful! I’ll definitely be back some day and stay in the accommodation.

Beautiful views, such a tradition and culture inherited from Medici family and kept alive by Veronica and her family.

Definitely a lovely place, I strongly suggest a visit.

Stopped in while waiting for our nearby Airbnb to be ready. Had a fantastic lunch and a wonderful wine. Going back in a couple of days for a tasting and tour!

3 Star Hotel yet feels like a 5 Star Hotel!

Brilliant location within their own vineyard, waking up to birds chirping daily.
Breakfast serves one of the freshest best homegrown lemon-orange hybrid juice ever! (each of us definitely have 2 cups every morning.)

Service staffs are well trained and friendly, always going the extra mile.
Receptions are helpful to assisting us on the local activities and guides, planning for our meals as such.

Room was spacious, comfortable, well maintained. (see video)
-kettle was slightly too heavy with limescale.

In-house wine tour - tasting - food pairing, was a great experience.
Enjoyed their Tuscan reserve wine.
They also reuse the leftover grapes and make into candles! Smells lovely! Environmentally friendly.

Also had a dinner arranged by their in-house chef,
Tuscan Ham
Florentine Steak
Homegrown garden salad (very fresh!)
Meats was a bit salty, but lovely experience!

Just stumbled across the nicest place while out for a mountain drive. We had a very friendly and helpful guide, they were very busy with an upcoming event yet still took the time to help us with a tasting. The wine was delightful, and would recommend this winery to anyone.

We loved our stay at Villa Dianella and would love to come back. What a breath of fresh air and a relaxing time!

We visited Villa Dianella for dinner as one stop on our tour of Italy. The hospitality was wonderful, the tour of their facilities was interesting and the meal and wines served we're very tasty.

Producer of local wine and olive oil. After short tasting we bought the oliva oil from own production and a good Chianti. Very friendly staff, nice views on the wineyards. 😁🥃

Amazing farm, villa, restaurant, winery and destination spot. Very knowledgeable about the wines and olives of the region. Beautiful grounds and buildings.

Very clean large rooms. Staff very helpful. We stayed here for 6 nights and had a wonderful relaxing stay.

Excellent service, friendly, relaxed, great food and amazing wines

Amazing wine 🍷 house!

History, Elegance, Ancient Wine Sharing in Wonderful Remembrance.

Magnifique endroit. Le déjeuner était excellent, l’accueil chaleureux et la chambre superbe, confort 5 étoiles! Nous avons très bien mangé le soir à leur restaurant. Merci pour le séjour!

Eine Villa mit so viel Liebe zum Detail! Wir kamen ein bisschen zu spät an und wurden aber trotzdem seehr herzlich empfangen! Die Umgebung ist umwerfend und man hat einen atemberaubenden Blick in die Landschaft!
Das Zimmer ist sehr schön eingerichtet, man hat das Gefühl in einer anderen Zeit zu leben! Am Abend waren wir noch im hauseigenen Restaurant (welches in 5' Gehminuten liegt) essen und es war hervorragend! Tolles Ambiente und super Essen!
Das Frühstück war auch super! Wir wurden auch hier wieder herzlich begrüsst, das Buffet war super ansprechend und das selbstgemachte Rührei ein Traum!
Wir kommen sehr sehr gerne wieder!
Vielen Dank für diesen tollen Aufenthalt bei euch!
Valeria und Nicci
