Reviews of Tenuta Di Monaciano

Absolutely famous destination, the embodiment of Tuscany, total peace, 7 km from the city of Siena, no problem shopping in the large Coop store. very helpful staff, especially Veronica from the reception, everyone is absolutely nice, wonderful!!!!!!!

ATTENTION, AIR CONDITIONING IS NOT PART OF THE EQUIPMENT OF THE ENTIRE COMPLEX (there is an exception in only one house)

How you imagine a Tuscan holiday to be. Beautiful apartments set in a stunning location. Super helpful staff.

Beware, no air con, just fans, which was not great in August.

Silent and with a feeling of beeing in the middle of nowhere without beeing in the middle of nowhere. It was a short drive to Siena.

The apartment was huge and stocked with everything you might need. The location was peaceful and had a pool in the complex. It is also on top of a smaller hill, so it had some nice views, especially in the evening with the sun setting. There was also ample outdoor seating, to enjoy these views or a leisurely snack.

The complex has no bike storage and we had to carry our bikes inside each evening, which was a bit of a chore, since we were on the first floor and had some narrowish, steep stairs. So if you're visiting with bikes, ask for a ground floor apartment. It's also a bit remote, so if you want to eat or get something from a shop, you'll need to take a short drive for that.

A dreamlike area, very friendly staff, and a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. We felt very comfortable and will gladly come back!

Extremely helpfull crew. Very clean and silent rooms and VERY beautiful surroundings. We where there for the bike race of Strade Bianche - it was a perfect location for that BUT be aware of closed roads on raceday.

Stunning area & beautiful location, amazingly kind and helpful staff and an overall wonderful experience!

Great location, though you need a car/taxi to access it. The room was nice, peaceful, and we enjoyed the stay a lot!

It would have been nice if the kitchen was equiped slightly better with things such as cooking oil and basic spices, but this was not a big deal.

I never wanted to leave this place! It is the picture of a tranquil, beautiful stay in the Tuscan countryside. We stayed in a small house that was in great shape, had a large living room and kitchen, came with a toaster oven, Keurig-type espresso maker, fridge, etc., large bedroom, and clean, updated bathroom. There was a little porch with a table and chairs to eat or drink outside and take in the spectacular sunsets. The white gravel roads that run through the property link up with a quiet, beautiful walking path into a more forested area. It suited our needs perfectly and I would go back again in an instant.

Driving on the gravel roads into the property is a bit stressful the first time you do it. Once you get used to it though it's fine. The nearest restaurant is a bit of a trek down to get to from any of the apartments/villas so make sure to plan ahead when it comes to food! The shower was tiny and the water changed temperature of its own accord sometimes, but that's pretty minor.

Wonderful location. What we had in mind for Tuscany Tuscany holiday

The shower was terrible. Very small. I’m a small guy and found it small. My friend who was a big guy, didn’t fit in the shower.

Great location, clean swimming pool and amazing view!

Kitchen in our apartment lacked some utensils.

Perfect location amidst the Chianti vineyards and olive trees. Nice, clean and large swimming pool. Staff very friendly and helpful. Very spacious and clean apartment. Nice view from the apartment. Amazing sunsets. Only 10 minutes drive to Siena and 2 local restaurants at only 5 minutes drive. Free laundry service.

NB. Because of the pictures we expected to stay at the villa and to be able to use the swimming pool with the magnificent view from the villa, however, access to the villa and the pool are only reserved for weddings and not accessible for 'normal' guests. Difficult and slippery road to reach the Poggio. Only very basic equipment in the kitchen (e.g. not even a cutting board of wine glasses). Tiny shower. WiFi was not working great. Breakfast service would be nice. No air conditioning; being pregnant and with outside temperatures up to 37 degrees the apartment was unpleasantly warm inside.

Amazing place! lovely helpful staff! Beautiful surroundings. Can’t wait to come back!

Nothing

such a beautiful location, like in a movie. very lovely place,

some basic cleaning stuff (eg a sponge in the kitchen) and some basics like salt, pepper, oil in the kitchen would be nice to have in an appartment (in particular when it says ‚fully equipped appartment) actually everywhere else this is pretty much standard

We had a great stay here! Before we arrived the communication with the staff was very nice, they were very helpful in giving us some recommendations and helping us with our late arrival. The estate is just a 20min drive from Siena and is absolutely beautiful! Perfect location to discover different places in Tuscany. We stayed in a 1bed apartment that had everything you need and very clean. The pool had an amazing view over the vineyard and Tuscan hills. During our stay we also had a tour around the villa and joined the wine tasting. Many many thanks for your hospitality and for the great stay! We will be back!

The location was great and the staff were nice, But those are the only positives, unfortunately.

- Kitchen not well equipped. Instead of our planned outing in Siena that night, we had to run around to different stores after 20.00 to buy basic things for the kitchen (such as matches/lighter to light the gas stove, to have this ready for making breakfast), dishwashing things etc. - No AC. It was very hot. It's ok in the bedrooms as we had a fan on the ceiling but in the kitchen/sitting room, it was ROASTING. I had somehow overlooked this in the description, so if you are coming in summer, you may want to consider this! - No dishwasher, but also not provided any alternatives for washing the dishes. - The bathroom was mouldy (yuk, especially in the shower - this needs to be taken care of - it is disgusting). It is a very old bathroom (which is ok, I realise this is a farm stay and not a 5-star hotel), but my friend is tall so he did not even fit in the shower! - Overall, we liked the location but it was NOT worth the money, in our opinion.
