What’s not to love? This place is magical and straight out of a fairy tale. Beautiful countryside views and views of the city of Montepulciano. Big and comfortable room. Lovely shower. Breakfast and dinners to die for. Nathalie and Igor along with the other workers were all fantastic. Wonderful selection of wine and the hot tub was awesome if you’re there in season. Just a perfect stay, especially after being in the big cities to get away from so many people for a bit.

A Bucket-List Stay That Takes Your Breath Away – Stelle di Monte, Castellina, Italy Staying at Stella di Monte in Montepulciano this October was truly a bucket-list experience — one that we’ll never forget. From the moment we arrived, we knew this was a five-star deluxe property in every sense of the word. The attention to detail, craftsmanship, and love poured into every corner of the property are simply breathtaking. You can feel the passion of the owners in how they’ve revived and breathed new life into this stunning place. Every stone, every view, every design choice feels intentional and filled with heart. The views are spectacular — sweeping Tuscan landscapes, gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, and on clear days, you can even see Montepulciano from several seating areas throughout the grounds. It’s the kind of beauty that stops you in your tracks. Breakfast was a highlight — made-to-order and delicious, served with warmth and care. The owners’ hospitality was second to none: always available, never intrusive, and genuinely invested in making sure every guest has an unforgettable stay. Their recommendations were spot-on, and the dinner offered exclusively to guests is something you simply must not miss — it was spectacular. We were fortunate to stay in two different rooms, each beautifully appointed, showcasing the same thoughtful design and comfort. If you have the chance, don’t miss the jacuzzi — the views from there are something out of a dream. We also loved the honesty bar, a charming touch that made us feel right at home. We arrived a bit early and enjoyed a lovely bottle of wine while sitting outside, soaking in the views and the anticipation of what was to come. Everything about Stelle di Monte feels magical — refined yet welcoming, luxurious yet deeply personal. I rarely repeat vacations, but this is one place I would gladly return to. Stelle di Monte is not just a stay — it’s an experience for the soul.

I don't think we could come up with anything. The stay was absolutely amazing!

The breakfast was absolutely delicious and hearty! They provide you a menu for all the various items that you would like to have as well as attention to detail about any food allergies or aversions you may have. The breakfast was a perfect way to start the day to explore the surrounding area. Lastly, we really appreciated how communicative Nathalie was in preparation for our stay. Igor's dinner meals are fantastic!!

Stella di Monte is an absolute gem & the most beautiful place to stay. Spectacular views, peaceful & very relaxing. Nathalie & Igor have restored the building exquisitely & to a very high standard, stunning both inside and out. Igor prepared an outstanding 3 course meal using fantastic local ingredients.

This is one of the most spectacular hotels we have ever stayed in. Nathalie and Igor put their heart and soul into every detail of this magnificent property. The view is priceless, the grounds impeccable, the rooms are clean, charming and crisp. We had such a fantastic time here and look forward to returning when we are back in Tuscany. Thank you both so much for everything!

Nothing could have been better except to stay longer. Nathalie and Igor are the owners and the initiators of this vision. They live on site and work hard to continue to provide for guests, improve and expand. They started with a ruin and a dream five years ago and with an amazing vision and hard work have transformed the rubble into a very comfortable legacy for so many to enjoy. I had many good talks with Igor about the many details of this transformation and learned alot about building in Italy. They have utilized ancient materials and yet transformed the ruin into a bright and contemporary rooms full of texture and delight!

The view is absolutely breathtaking! Montepulciano was like an apparition floating on the near horizon. Mesmerizing and continuously changing. We were concerned about the steepness of the walk into the town, but it was a very quiet 10 minute walk along the paved country road and then through the arch and behold two elevators to take you to the park at the top and a casual walk to the city gate and the up meandering main street. IDEAL location .

This place was so charming and magical !! Definitely the highlight of our trip. Perfectly located with gorgeous views overlooking the town of Montepulciano. The grounds are so beautiful, and the main building has such a unique Tuscan charm. Nathalie and Igor were so welcoming and made sure every little detail was perfect. The food prepared by Igor was simply spectacular !! And our private dinner in the wine cellar was so romantic and memorable. We wish we could have stayed longer. We didn't want to leave ! Communication before arriving was amazing and very helpful. This stay will be engraved in our memories forever!! A true Tuscan gem !

There was nothing i didn't like about Stelle Di Monte, perhaps only that my stay was too short.

You never know what to expect when you see nothing but five star reviews, but Stelle De Monte lived up to expectations. The location is exceptional with a stunning view and a comfortable walk into town, the staff were warm and welcoming, the rooms and all the small touches around the property were beautiful, the dinner and breakfasts were outstanding.

There was not a thing we didn't like.

We loved everything! Stelle Di Monte was the most magical place we have visited. The views were stunning, breathtaking, in every direction- truly no words can describe the whole experience. The hosts were super accommodating and gracious! The room was perfectly comfortable. The aesthetics of everything created a perfect Tuscan experience. They are truly gifted at creating an environment that felt naturally Tuscan. I would whole heartedly recommend this special place. Don't second guess it - book it!

Stunningly beautiful property run by a lovely couple, Nathalie and Igor, who made sure every little thing was thought of. Igor's food was some of the best we have ever eaten - we left a bit of our hearts (and waistlines!) at Stelle di Monte. Grazie mille xx

The perfect base for our Tuscany adventures! It was amazing to come back to sunsets with the most unbelievable views across the valley. We were so well taken care of! Breakfast was perfect every morning. Missing Igor's eggs and Nathalie's homemade bread. We had dinner one night which was one of the best meals of our trip. Pescatarian friendly too! With a great selection of wines. They are the most accommodating and gracious couple, and very helpful with recommendations. Hope to be able to stay with them again in the future!

This is silly or just American we would have liked hashtags other than that you want for nothing!

The specialty black truffle scrambled eggs were so GOOD! The hosts Nathalie & Igor have thought of everything to make your stay as effortless as possible. So kind & thoughtful. We plan to go back asap!

We stayed at Stelle di Monte for 2 nights. This was the perfect start to our 2 week road trip in Italy. The property has its own car parking and we had no trouble finding it using the emailed directions and the GPS. The accommodation was exactly as you see on the website, we booked Degli Artisti Room. It had a lovely view of both Montepulciano and the valley and we were not disappointed. Our hosts Nathalie and Igor where friendly and provided us with so much information prior to our stay about , food, wine and things to do in the area. We ate at the restaurant 1 night as Igor is a chef and he cooked a beautiful dinner which we chose to eat outside to soak up the magical views. We would recommend staying at Stelle di Monte, we loved everything about it.
