Castello di Vicarello

We had the most incredible stay at Casello di Vicarello — truly one of the most special and memorable places we’ve ever been. The entire team made us feel so welcomed and cared for, with an ease and generosity that’s hard to come by. Huge thank you to Michelle, Licia, Sole, Nicolas, Giuseppe, Morocco, and the rest of the amazing staff — every single person we interacted with brought kindness, joy, and true hospitality to the experience. The property itself is breathtaking: lush gardens, peaceful views, and interiors that blend rustic charm with refined, thoughtful design. Every meal was a highlight — fresh, seasonal, and full of flavor. It’s the kind of place that manages to feel both elevated and deeply personal. We already can’t wait to return.

I had the pleasure of staying at Castello Di Vicarello, and it truly exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the attention to detail in every aspect of the hotel. It’s clear that every corner is thoughtfully curated to create a warm, welcoming atmosphere while staying deeply connected to the local heritage. The design, amenities, and all the little touches were executed with such care. One of the standout features of this incredible place is the exceptional, high-end family-run business level of care. Speaking with the two brothers who run the hotel, you can instantly tell they go above and beyond, working closely with their staff to ensure every guest feels at home. It’s rare to find such personalized, high-end service. This to me is true hospitality with impeccable attention to detail, I highly recommend staying at Castello Di Vicarello. I’ll certainly be back soon!

This trip was pure magic. From the second we arrived, the staff made us feel like family kind, genuine, and always making sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling overbearing. The property itself was straight out of a dream. Every corner, every view felt like it belonged in a postcard. I don’t think I’ve ever felt so calm and present. But honestly, what made this trip unforgettable were the experiences. The wine tasting was incredible not just the wine, but the whole atmosphere, the stories, the laughter. And the cooking class… I can’t even explain how special it felt. Laughing, learning, tasting it wasn’t just a class, it was a moment you want to bottle up and keep forever. If you’re looking for more than just a hotel something that feels like a true Tuscan experience this is it. If I can give it a 10 stars I would!

A Dream Honeymoon at a Hidden Gem We had the absolute joy of spending our honeymoon at this magical hideaway, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Tucked away like a secret waiting to be discovered, the property feels like a true escape—peaceful, romantic, and surrounded by timeless beauty. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the most wonderful staff—always smiling, genuinely warm, and eager to make our stay special in every way. Their kindness and attention to detail made us feel instantly at home. And of course, no stay here would be complete without a mention of the famous castle dog, Uva. She stole our hearts the moment we met her—gentle, playful, and somehow just as much a part of the charm as the historic walls around her. This wasn’t just a place to stay—it was an experience we’ll remember forever. We left with full hearts, grateful memories, and a promise to return.

We had an incredible experience at Castello di Vicarello. Everyone treated us like family. The property has a unique charm that cannot be described in pictures. Food was exceptional, as were all the activities you could do at the Hotel. The truffle hunt around the hotel grounds was very enjoyable, and so were the dishes the chefs prepared for us using our freshly-hunted white and black summer truffles!

5 stars!! Castello di Vicarello is pure magic. It’s the best place to stay in Tuscany peaceful, beautiful, and unforgettable. The two pools, one heated and one stunning infinity pool with the best view, were amazing. My favorite part was the gardens, so serene and full of life. We also did the wine tasting and cooking class, both fantastic experiences, and the massage was incredible. A personal highlight was meeting Uva, the property’s dog — back in 2019 I added “meeting Uva” to my bucket list, and for my 30th birthday, my dream finally came true. Staying here was everything I hoped for and more. I can’t wait to come back

This was one of the most incredible places I have ever had the pleasure of staying. It exceeded my expectations in every way and as an optimist, this is hard to do! It was the first stop on my honeymoon and it did not disappoint. The food was exceptional, the atmosphere was exactly what you picture Tuscany to be, the decor was well thought out and not one corner was missed. It was the epitome of a Tuscan dream and it was clear the family run castle was curated thoughtfully. Castello di Vicarello is family run and it is clear that the family takes pride in this extraordinary place with each of them specializing in a different area .The staff were incredibly professional, friendly, accommodating and you can't help but feel that you are at a home away from home. They also have a dog named Uva who roams around the grounds! She is a sweetheart and a wonderful addition to the stay. There is not one negative thing I have to say about CDV. I will 100% be going back there and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!

Castello di Vicarello lived up to the hype. The accommodations and food were superb. The hotel staff made you feel like you were home. The cooking class and wine tasting are a must. Would recommend to anyone looking for an Italian countryside get away.
