Lupaia

Lupaia is located in the breathtakingly beautiful southern Tuscan countryside outside of Montepulciano. It is close to many wonderful towns - Montepulciano, Pienza and Cortona, but also smaller villages that are fun to spontaneously explore. The staff could not have been more lovely and accommodating, from the front desk/concierge to the wait staff and housekeeping staff. The breakfast was delicious, and my husband and I enjoyed dinner on site two or our three nights. The menu was different each night, and delicious, making use of ingredients produced on site or very nearby. The wine list, both by the glass and by the bottle, was also very well chosen. We enjoyed trying different wines from the various Tuscan winemaking regions. We appreciated this on-site dinner option, as one does not want to drive far on the picturesque but narrow and twisty rural roads after dark (or after a couple of glasses of wine!). Our room, Nido, classified as a junior suite, was spacious and comfortable. The views from the property are gorgeous in every direction. And we loved having a pool to come back to in the hot hot afternoons.||Our room, Nido, while very spacious and comfortable, was I believe the only room without its own terrace. There may have been others, but we didn't see them. There are many public spaces for guests, but on two of the three evenings we were there, there was a (small, discrete) wedding in the large common outdoor space, which also happened to be the only shady, breezy outdoor space on very hot evenings. Not wanting to disturb the nuptials, we unsuccessfully sought out alternatives. We would have liked to have our own private space to enjoy the evening. I chose our room, and it was exceptionally hot when we were there, but after staying at Lupaia I would recommend booking a room with private outdoor space.

Truly one of the most magical and unique properties we’ve visited. Perched on the hill in a Tuscan fairytale setting, Lupaia marries luxury with boutique intimacy. The grounds were stunning, the food was exceptional and the service was so warm and friendly. The hotel has an enviable location overlooking medieval hilltop towns, curvy Cyprus roads and rolling hills. When walking around the 400 year old estate, you’re inundated with smells of Jasmin and rosemary, crazy birdsong and the most serene Tuscan breeze. I cannot recommend this hotel enough! It’s truly so special.

From the welcome drink to check out this hotel is 5 star. The service is amazing and the staff really cares and is very personable and respectful. Every detail is handled. The food is incredible and so fresh and fresh and obviously the best ingredients. It is so intimate you can enjoy the time with your loved one. The pool is amazing as well. I enjoy the dirt road entrance and the first time to drive it with anticipation. We reviewed so many pictures and they do not do this hotel justice. It is beyond your imagination.

Pictures do not describe this hotel. Extremely private enclave with 5 star rooms and service. Everyone is so personal and the food is unbelievable. Imagine their own bee hives for honey. Olive trees for oil. Vegetable and herb garden. Local meats and cheeses. Truly Michelin star experience for those that want a private quiet bespoke experience.

My wife and I stayed at Lupaia for part of our honeymoon and it was without question, the best part of our trip to Italy. From the views, the grounds, and the food, to the service, villas, and tranquility, Lupaia is absolutely remarkable. It is a must if you're in Tuscany. The service was second to none. The grounds were so peaceful and relaxing. The villa was immaculate and felt like being at home. I cannot recommend it enough. Make sure to get a few bottles of their homemade Olive Oil to take home or ship back! Thank you Lupaia!

There is something so special about Lupaia. It has spirit, soul, and a kindness. From the second we arrived we felt at home when Christine kindly greeted us with local wine and showed us around. Our room was so comfortable and had stunning views of the Tuscan hills. There was turn down service every night and a daily cleaning service. We also had laundry done and it came back pressed in a little basket. We had an unforgettable wine tasting with Silvio and and amazing, special cooking class with Giulia. Every morning at breakfast Emma was so friendly and helpful. The breakfast is lovely and the farm fresh eggs are amazing. The texting concierge service is fantastic - we often used it simply to have a delicious cappuccino brought to us in the evening. Prior to our stay Christine helped us coordinate all our activities including a special day trip to Montalcino to taste Brunello. Dinner every night was nothing short of amazing. It’s a tasting menu that changes every night and it was fantastic. We had wonderful dinner service from Alessio and Damian’s. We will never forget our perfect honeymoon here and we will be back. Thank you to all of of you who put so much love, care, and soul into making Lupaia so special. Katherine and Henry

We loved every minute. From the moment we arrived, the staff welcomed us with such joy and warmth, every detail was thoughtful.||We chose Lupaia as the place to renew our vows, and they made it incredibly special for us. The team went above and beyond to help us create a beautiful time that we’ll always remember. It really felt like a dream. ||They set up a truffle hunting experience, followed by a charming picnic in the countryside. The setting, the food, the views, everything was perfect.||We left feeling grateful and already dreaming about when we can return. Thank you, Lupaia, for making our time in Tuscany so full of joy and love.||-Ben & Britt
