We just stayed here for 3 nights and loved our stay. The hotel was beautiful, clean and well run. We had two rooms, both of which were well appointed and serviced daily with replenished bottled water (something a lot of hotels in Italy don't seem to do). We decided on the second night to eat in the restaurant. The food and service were great and so much so we ate again on our last night. Staff running the hotel were consistent in their friendliness and made an effort for us to feel very welcome, laughing and joking with us but also running the hotel efficiently and well The pool looked really nice but its October so we skipped that for now haha. Breakfast was good, it was buffet but with a good selection of healthy options plus some hot food too. They also offer gluten free bread for both breakfast and dinner (as well as gluten free pasta). Would definitely stay again

Asked along the way.
Can guests stay at the villa for multiple nights?+
Yes. With 40+ rooms on-site, Villa Sabolini functions as a full hotel, allowing wedding parties to book multi-night packages and host welcome dinners, rehearsal events, and post-wedding brunches without off-site coordination.
What makes the vineyard ceremonies different here?+
Unlike venues with vineyard views, Villa Sabolini is an operating wine estate. Ceremonies take place among active production rows, and receptions can include wine tastings of the property's own vintages—a working terroir experience rather than decorative backdrop.
What is the guest capacity range?+
The venue accommodates 20–150 guests, with flexibility for intimate elopements or larger celebrations across multiple event spaces.
Is the venue suitable for non-traditional ceremonies?+
Yes. The estate's mixed indoor/outdoor spaces and wine-centric culture appeal to secular, non-religious, and alternative ceremony styles. Discuss preferences directly via their website contact form.
How far is Villa Sabolini from major airports?+
Florence (Peretola) is approximately 1 hour drive north. Rome Fiumicino is 2.5–3 hours south. Both are accessible via rental car or private transfer services.
