We loved, loved, loved our incredible week at Locanda Le Piazze! What an AMAZING time we had, from the night we arrived to the morning we sadly had to depart. The property is absolutely pristine and peaceful, with beautiful views of vineyards in every direction. Our suite had a private patio that allowed us to take in the gorgeous sunrises. To say that the reception staff was absolutely accommodating and welcoming (actually everyone on property made us feel so welcomed and valued) is an understatement. Sara, Andrea and Dario tended to all our needs…..from making dining reservations to setting up a wine tour, to suggestions on where to go and what to see….they all went out of their way to ensure our stay was perfect! Loved all the conversations! The dining staff was just as incredible….with the likes of Carolina, Camilla, Zoryana, Jacopo and the rest of the team…always making sure our dining experiences were always lovely. The food at Aperitavolo was delicious, modeling a farm to table concept. So much attention to detail! We took every opportunity to enjoy the available amenities on property including massages at AnaiSpa. Our masseuses, Laura and Mary were amazing! Both very talented individuals, they listened to our requests and kneaded tight muscles, bringing us to a state of total relaxation and making us feel like putty afterwards 🥰! And everyday, after a long day of soaking in the sights, we always came back to a perfectly made up room thanks to Qamile. No better way to end the day, and to enjoy another restful night! There’s no question….we are definitely going back for a second, third, etc visit! We are so impressed, and in love with Locanda Le Piazze and its staff!!
