Our stay at La Monastica Resort and Spa has been nothing short of magical! Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, this former monastery offers an enchanting blend of history, luxury, and serene natural beauty.
Arriving at the resort, we were greeted by the warmest and most hospitable international staff, who made us feel at home instantly. Special shoutouts to Gianmatteo, Leon, and Diane, whose kindness and attentiveness truly elevated our stay and left a lasting impression.
A dramatic storm swept through during our visit, cutting off electricity and water for a night, but the resort graciously waived the charge for what was supposed to be a luxury evening. In the end, it only added to the unique charm and adventure of our stay. We loved the memory of a spooky castle setting and were blown away by the efforts made to put on an exquisite breakfast buffet, regardless of the storm.
We were upgraded to a luxury suite, a gesture that reflected the resort’s impeccable hospitality. The suite was an absolute dream. Dining was equally phenomenal, with farm-to-table ingredients and indulgent truffle dishes and phenomenal service and wine selection.
What made our stay extra special was connecting with the staff, some of whom hail from the same countries my partner and I had visited together. We also enjoyed walks into the surrounding woods, taking full advantage of the occasional warm weather to immerse ourselves in the peaceful Tuscan countryside. Best resort and staff!
