Castel Monastero

Castel Monastero is truly a beautiful place to stay. The grounds and rooms were pristine, and the setting in the Tuscan countryside was every bit as lovely as we had hoped. What stood out most was the service. Everyone we encountered was warm, professional, and attentive. Breakfast far exceeded our expectations, with a wonderful selection. We were guests at an epic wedding hosted there and it was the most incredible backdrop for a wedding. We felt well cared for throughout our stay and would happily return.

Wonderful place with wonderful staff. Absolutely to be repeated. We were happy with everything, especially the very well-prepared staff who were able to anticipate every need.

Had high expectations for this place as I had seen it on advert in Sardinia - we arrived the place is beautiful rustic old Monastry, stunning setting. We checked in and went to the pool, infinity pool with poolside bar and behind that is the SPA, we booked in a massage which was amazing, chilled by the pool, enjoyed the SPA pools, couldn't fault it. Staff was attentive and helpful. We then went to the room which at first looked cute with a little doorway and rustic shutters, my husband is 6.2 and is a big frame, within an hour he had fell up the steps and banged his head on the way back in, next door's room was much more spacious so if you are big make sure you ask for a bigger doorway room. Beds were super comfy with nice bedding luxury cotton count sheets ( I'm a bit of a sheet snob) nice rustic bathroom and stocked fridge. We booked the Cantina restaurant started great but once it got busy the poor staff could not cope but tried relentlessly to keep up with the demand, felt sorry for them but as a customer the food was very average ok had to ask numerous times for items and an extra bottle was added to our bill. So in all the day got a big thumbs up but the room and food got a thumbs down. So disappointed and as only staying one night we could not see if anything had changed for the following nights. As usual I name a person who stood out and it was Rusano lovely guy and a credit to the place - also the masseuse girls. Also one last thing, the food at pool bar was better than the Cantina that day so try the pool food. Spot on.
