Villa Dianella in Vinci, open June–September.
Villa Dianella dates back to the 18th century as a Tuscan estate and has been carefully restored to preserve its historical architecture while introducing contemporary hospitality amenities.
Located in Vinci, the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci, this hotel venue retains original stone work and period details throughout its 12 guest rooms.
The property operates as a working hotel and destination wedding venue, offering couples an authentic Tuscan experience with documented provenance dating to 1780.
We arrived quite late in the evening, and the villa was hosting an event for more than 200 guests — the parking area was completely full. Fortunately, we met a kind member of the staff who guided us to the very last available space inside. That was the first sign of the exceptional service to come. Dinner was pure excellence — truly unforgettable. Every course was beautifully presented and tasted divine. Our Junior Suite was both elegant and comfortable, with a perfectly designed bathroom. The only improvement we could suggest would be to have the toilet and bathroom divided into two separate rooms for added comfort. Breakfast the next morning was another highlight: an extraordinary selection of dishes, fresh pastries, and local delicacies — all enjoyed with one of the most breathtaking views over the Tuscan landscape. In the morning, we had the pleasure of meeting the chef, who kindly showed us around the property — a wonderful gesture that made our stay even more memorable. We will certainly return for a few days next time. This is exactly the kind of place where one wishes to stay longer than just a night. The only small inconvenience was the number of mosquitoes inside the room — but, of course, that’s hardly the property’s fault and quite expected in Tuscany at this time of year.
