A 151-room resort built around a restored hilltop village and the largest golf course in Tuscany — 27 holes, two pools, multiple restaurants, 40 minutes from Pisa airport.
"A restored medieval village, 27 holes of golf, two pools, multiple restaurants, 151 rooms. The full-service Tuscan resort for trips that want everything on-property."
Toscana Resort Castelfalfi sits on a 2,700-acre estate at Montaione, in the rolling hills west of Florence and roughly 40 minutes from Pisa airport. The estate's anchor is the restored medieval village of Castelfalfi — a fortified hilltop hamlet abandoned in the 1960s and brought back over a multi-year restoration that completed across the 2010s. The resort opened in its current configuration in 2017 and combines hotel inventory in two distinct categories: contemporary rooms in a modern building and traditional Tuscan rooms inside the converted historic tobacco warehouse adjacent to the village.
There are 151 rooms and suites in total, the largest five-star inventory in inland Tuscany. The modern building delivers polished-wood-floor rooms with reading corners and contemporary bathrooms; the tobacco warehouse delivers more traditional Tuscan-style rooms with terracotta and beamed ceilings. Suite categories include Junior Suites, Suites with terrace, and the larger Castelfalfi Suite with full village view. The estate also offers a small set of standalone villas in the village for groups and family-trip configurations.
The 27-hole Castelfalfi Golf Club is Tuscany's largest golf operation — a championship 18-hole layout (Mountain Course) plus a 9-hole course (Lake Course) — designed by Rainer Preissmann and Wilfried Moroder, opened in 2011. The golf programme is the resort's distinctive draw and pulls a serious European golf clientele. Two outdoor pools handle the daytime sun. The spa runs treatment rooms, sauna, hammam, and an indoor pool. Multiple restaurants split the dining: Olivina is the property's signature restaurant in the village, La Rocca is the more casual all-day, La Via del Sale serves at the golf clubhouse, and Il Rosmarino handles light meals at the pool. Cooking classes, vineyard tours of the on-estate winery (Castelfalfi produces Chianti DOCG and IGT Toscana wines), and e-bike rentals fill the daytime activity programme.
The Montaione location places the resort about 60 minutes south-west of Florence, 75 minutes from Siena, and 40 minutes from Pisa airport — the easiest large-resort airport access in Tuscany. The 2,700-acre estate, the on-property dining and amenities, and the golf course mean most guests treat the resort as the destination rather than a base for excursions. For families, golf-focused trips, milestone anniversaries that want resort amenities, and group bookings, Castelfalfi delivers the Tuscan-resort proposition at a scale and price point the boutique competition cannot match.
The strongest large-scale family-resort proposition in Tuscany. Two pools, the kids' programme, multiple restaurants, walking trails, e-bikes, and the golf course at one estate. Junior Suites and Suites with adjoining rooms are the right configurations for parents-plus-children.
A full-amenity anniversary in the restored medieval village of Castelfalfi. Olivina handles milestone dinners; the village backdrop at sunset is the photograph; the spa and golf programme handle the days.
For couples whose honeymoon is part-resort, part-Tuscany. The 27-hole golf, the dual-pool deck, the cooking classes, and the spa give the trip texture. A day trip to Florence is 60 minutes; San Gimignano is 30 minutes. The Castelfalfi Suite is the right room for the milestone.
