The hotel offers a stunningly serene setting for relaxation, and while the amenities like the spa and restaurants are appealing, the service quality is somewhat lacking, which detracts from the overall luxurious experience. The food can be great in quality, but expect some hiccups in service timing and responsiveness. Overall, it's a beautiful place with potential, but improvements are needed in management and service.

The hotel has beautifully landscaped grounds and is set in a serene Tuscan environment, which adds to the overall charm of the stay. The service overall was satisfactory, but the housekeeping left much to be desired. On the upside, the dining experience was exceptional, particularly with the high-quality food and variety available. However, the inconsistency in staff assistance was a downside, affecting the overall experience.
