Hotel Description
Immerse yourself in the everlasting beauty of the Tuscan countryside and escape to a place where you can enjoy an authentic transformative experience amidst olive groves, vineyards, streams and natural hot springs. This exclusive resort was originally constructed in the 17th century as one of the Medici villas and is now renowned as a therapeutic retreat into nature. The rooms and suites’ style is inspired by ornaments of Tuscan palaces and the two-tone bands characteristic of churches in Florence and Siena. Beyond the gourmet experiences, craft shops, medieval towns, and antique markets, Fonteverde is best known for its thermal spas, with waters rich in fluorine, magnesium, and sulphur, as well as for its own wellness philosophy named Equilibrium, for diet, body, and soul. In summer, the freshwater outdoor pool is a true oasis of cool relaxation amidst the greenery: 140 square meters of water, with vanishing edges that blend seamlessly into the Val d’Orcia landscape.
At the spa, refreshing treatments such as the “Foam Ceremony” and Cryotherapy offer welcome relief from the heat of the season. The property also boasts a private chapel that was originally built in the 11th century and serves as an ideal destination for weddings and events. For those looking to balance their stay with business, Fonteverde offers state-of-the-art meeting room facilities.
