Relais Val D'Orcia was in one of the most beautiful, breathtaking locations I've ever seen. The owner was extremely kind. Facilities were immaculate; room beautiful, service superb. I would love to stay here again. If you're looking for tranquil and romantic, this is it!
How can you thank God enough for creating such a paradise on Earth that is this Relais. Under the magic wand of owner/manager Laura, Relais Val d'Orcia sits atop a hill with Pienza rolling out before you. The coziness, cleanliness and convenience are perfect and the welcoming staff and pets are the icing on the cake. You will need a car because Paradise should never be easy to reach but, oh is it worth it!
I can’t recommend this property enough. Laura went above and beyond from the time I made the reservation. I asked her for a lot of help with reservations and just general information. She was responsive and gave great recommendations. The property was as described, there was much attention to detail and breakfast was wonderful. I would highly recommend this property.
Relais Val d’Orcia was a lovely place in beautiful Val d’Orcia .Everything was perfect from services to accommodation. It only opens few years ago and it’s just beautiful. Very comfortable bed, big room, spotlessly clean bathroom and an indoor parking. You get a great view of the Tuscan valley from every window in your room. It is very close to towns like Pienza and Montepulciano, only 20 minutes drive. It is a place to stay if you’re in Tuscany .
The property is on top of the hill. The view around you of the Tuscan valley and surrounding mountains: astounding! The owner Laura is very hands on in taking care of her guest. She took her time to even orient us even in how things work in our room. This property is a must, but you need to have a car to get there. They have a parking garage included in the price. Garage even has a gate. You cannot get into the property without going through a gate. Very safe.
It was a beautiful facility and surroundings and owners were extremely nice.
Only problem for me was no air conditioning! Guess I forgot to check that and it was very warm.
The property is absolutely amazing, offering a unique eco pool with astonishing views of the valley. It is a family-run estate, the staff is very friendly and makes sure you really enjoy your stay.
The property is located in a beautiful, private setting. There are lovely views of rolling green hills all around. The accommodations are updated and fresh. We stayed in a lovely large room with a large bathroom and great shower. Wonderful place.
This property is so beautiful, amazing views from every window and lots of outside areas to sit an enjoy just being in this part of the world - so relaxing.
The hosts were friendly, helpful and attentive and spending time with their lovely dog was honestly a highlight for us! What a welcome we received when we arrived.
The breakfast was the best we have had on our two week trip in italy, amazing selection and the quality of local ingredients is superb. The local yoghurt made down the road was delicious. The homemade cakes were lovely and you can have them with coffee any time.
The property is exceptional, like stating in a luxury hotel with a homey feel because of Laura and her husband. Beautiful views from anywhere in the property. Breakfast was perfect everyday. Every detail in the property was spot on you’ll forget about any minor flaw.
If you are looking for a converted tuscan farm Villa haphazardly done as someone’s “personal project” this is not it.
What this is is a state of the art small boutique hotel/villa designed (architect-owner) and manage by the owner-couple.
The main building is at the top of a small Tuscan hill surrounded by crop fields. It is modeled after a classic Tuscan villa with the exterior walls covered with repurposed field stones. Everything else is modern premium commercial grade materials including remote controlled iron gates to access the property and also a second gate to access the underground cement parking lot, outdoor patio with long chairs and simili-stone in ground swimming pool.
Inside the finishings are high end and tastefully executed including a cor-ten modern steel stair case, cut stone and stained wood flooring. There is even a small glass and chrome elevator to take your luggage up from the underground parking to the upper living floor.
We booked the corner deluxe room which had views of the tuscan country side in two directions. The room was very spacious and designed with the comforts of a fine boutique hotel. This included: high ceilings with exposed wood beams (I’m going to guess more than 15 feet high), wide plank stained hard wood flooring, wall mounted smart TV, electronic thermostat, numerous USB charging plugs, 20 power outlets no less (including one that remains powered even if you remove your room card - for charging
It was an amazing stay with such beautiful scenery blended with contemporary architectural design of the house. The delicate hospitality and the super lovely dog heightened the experience. We’d definitely re-visit again and stay for a week.
Stayed 3 nights at Relais Val d'Orcia. Laura was great and was a perfect host. The building is brand new and built to match the old farm house that was on the site. Breakfast was good with a selection of cheese, cured meats, yogurt from the farm next door, fresh fruit and 24 hour access to cake, espresso and milk. Laura baked pineapple coconut and ricotta chocolate cakes which where delicious. Location was central in the valley which allowed us to explore the area by driving a loop. Beds were comfortable and the property was quiet and relaxing.
It was absolutely perfect!! We found this property on a whim when we decided to go wine tasting from Florence. It was all beautiful! Great hospitality, nice breakfast, comfortable rooms. You can tell that a lot of time and effort went into renovating this home. Every detail is thought out. 5/5!!

Magnifique petite perles d’hébergement. Plein de possibilités à même le relais (Café, eau, gâteau, Prosecco à l’arrivée) dans un environnement magnifique et à mi chemin de plein de beaux petits villages de Toscane!
Malerisches Haus das von innen total modern ist. Tolle und sehr saubere Zimmer. Sehr leckeres Frühstück und toll dass es den ganzen Tag über Kuchen zur freien Verfügung gab. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr freundlich und die Umgebung/aussicht ist wunderschön.
