Villa Dianella

Villa Dianella — the soul of Tuscany We spent three unforgettable days at Villa Dianella, and it was pure magic. The villa is a perfect mix of authentic charm and modern comfort, surrounded by peaceful vineyards and Tuscan light. The staff were exceptional — warm, genuine, and truly passionate. We felt like guests in a beloved family home. Their wine is outstanding, and the tasting experience was a highlight — full of flavor and heart. Villa Dianella captures the true spirit of Italy — beautiful, soulful, and unforgettable. We can’t wait to return. ❤️

Just back from a fantastic stay at Villa Dianella.. We were there for five nights but would have been happy to have stayed a fortnight. The hotel itself is gorgeous, beautifully styled all in keeping with its history as a Medici family hunting lodge. There is a lovely pool to help keep cool on hotter days. We also loved eating at the restaurant which is small enough to feel intimate though with expansive views across the vines and the valley. The wines themselves are exceptional - a complex but easy-drinking rose; fresh, acidic vermentino and full bodied reds that are so typical of the area. Lastly, a big shout out to the staff, including Manuel in the restaurant and Arsenio who took great pride in the huge plate of gluten free bread he delivered me every breakfast.||Would go back every year if we could.

We spent 3 nights at Villa Dianella and absolutely loved it. The place has this magical, slightly mysterious and nostalgic feeling, you can really sense its 16th century Medici villa history, but everything is elegant, well-kept, and comfortable. The surroundings are stunning, whether you're having breakfast, tasting wine, or just relaxing by the pool, it all feels like being on a Bridgerton movie set. We were lucky to meet the owners, who both were kind, welcoming, and really helpful. A big thank you to Alessia, who made us feel right at home with her always friendly and professional attitude, and helped with anything we needed: wine tasting, showed us around the estate, travel tips.

Villa Dianella was exquisite. Though we only stayed one night, we were blown away by the grounds, the rooms, the restaurant, and the views. We hope to return someday, as it is one of the most beautiful, peaceful places on earth.

A great place to stay close to Firenze and Pisa, an amazing wine resort, surrounded by a fantastic area. The breakfast exceeds all expectations and the restaurant of the villa has the best view and an excellent menu.

A memorable experience — just not in the way we hoped. We booked Villa Dianella in mid-April for a stay in June and were genuinely excited. The property looked beautiful, and the location seemed ideal for a tranquil Tuscan escape. Then, starting May 1st, the magic began: we received WhatsApp messages from multiple unfamiliar Indian and Brazilian phone numbers claiming to represent the villa. These “helpful” messages included suspicious-looking links directing us to phishing-style websites, asking for personal information such as full names and booking details — information only someone with access to our reservation would likely have. Naturally concerned, we tried contacting both the hotel and Booking.com. Booking.com, in a “stellar” display of customer care, ignored our messages entirely. Truly remarkable. The villa’s manager, Simona, was at least responsive. She confidently assured us that the data breach came from Booking.com’s side. It was oddly reassuring to hear such certainty about where the issue definitely didn’t originate. Then, just 48 hours before our trip, the scammers struck again — this time through Booking.com’s official messaging platform. We reached out to Simona once more. To her credit, she acknowledged our concerns and kindly allowed us to cancel our stay. That gesture was appreciated. By then, I had already spent 2–3 frustrating hours calling Booking.com while abroad (thank you, international roaming), being disconnected multiple times and starting from scratch with each call — a truly unforgettable travel memory. Fortunately, Simona at least picked up the phone when they wouldn’t. In the end, we never made it to Villa Dianella. It might be lovely — we’ll never know. But we did walk away with a different kind of Tuscan experience: one involving data breaches, phishing attempts, and a customer service adventure we won’t soon forget.

We stopped here for a taste of their olive oil while passing through to Pisa. Simone was amazing with her welcoming of us! We can't wait to get back stateside to enjoy the fruit of Villa Dianella's labor :) June 2025

This was our fist time ever staying at a Villa in the Tuscany region so didn’t know what to expect. Villa Dianella EXCEEDED our expectations. Aside from the GORGEOUS landscape and OUTSTANDING staff, we enjoyed a FABULOUS cooking class, DELICIOUS wine tasting and an AMAZING private dinner experience all on property. And… the train station to Florence is a short 10-min drive (you can request a taxi) and the train to Florence is easy peasy and only a 30-min ride. Dianella has set the bar high for our family for sure! Thank you!
