Visiting Italy? Check Out Toscana Resort Castelalfi

Nestled in Italy’s picturesque Tuscany, Toscana Resort Castelalfi is an expansive, all-encompassing vacation destination. When travelling to Europe comes to mind, many of us imagine having to stay in multiple places to make the most of our experience, but Castelalfi is a all encompassing destination that puts those worries to rest.

Accommodations at the resort include La Tabaccia, a former tobacco drying barn that’s been converted into a 31 room boutique hotel. Rooms at the four star establishment range from the basic standard room to the suite that will keep you more than comfortable with king sized bed and separate living room. La Tabaccia is full of rustic details like wood beam ceilings and modern conveniences including WiFi, LCD TV, and a rain shower in every room. While other hotel amenities include a bar, meeting rooms, saunas, gym, pool, and outdoor lounge area.

If you’re looking for more intimacy than a hotel room can offer, Castelalfi also features eleven villas for rent. These private residences range from an impressive stand alone house on the golf course — complete with five bedrooms, a pool, and wood burning oven — to more modest, one bedroom apartments, perfect for honeymooning couples. These villas offer a more personal experience, while still providing concierge services to guests not in the main hotel building.

Golfers may have already heard of Castelalfi, which boasts the largest course in the region. With a total of 27 holes and a driving range, this is far beyond your basic golfing experience, and in a region with such a mild climate, you won’t want to pass up the opportunity to hit the links. If you aren’t a golfer, Castelalfi has plenty of other activities to keep you occupied. Excursions like hiking, horseback riding, and vespa tours will give you a deeper appreciation of the surrounding landscape, while wine tastings, cooking classes, or the terracotta course will have you returning home with some authentic Tuscan skills.

Tuscany is famous for Renaissance art and architecture, but the defining characteristic that everyone can agree on is its cuisine. Toscana Resort Castelalfi is home to two restaurants that will feed your cravings for fresh meat, fish, and pasta dishes that showcase local ingredients. La Rocca di Castelalfi offers gourmet, traditional cuisine served in the village’s restored medieval castle. For a more casual meal, Il Rosmarino is a traditional trattoria serving up a large selection of appetizers, pastas, and hearty main dishes.

Perhaps the most exciting thing about the Castelalfi resort is that it’s continuing to expand. Construction is currently underway on the five star hotel, Il Castelalfi. Still surrounded by the beautiful Tuscan countryside, this addition seeks to make the resort accessible to a larger number of guests. Il Castelalfi’s 120 rooms retain the rustic decorating touches seen throughout the resort while offering a more expansive selection of amenities, including a massive spa, indoor and outdoor pool, and panoramic restaurant for breathtaking views.

If you end up loving Castelalfi enough to stay for good, the Il Borgo village also features newly renovated real estate for sale, but at already 90% sold, this opportunity won’t be available forever.
