Poggio Ai Santi in San Vincenzo

Best breakfast in years. The staff was remarkably kind providing great service throughout the hotel and during breakfast. Cozy atmosphere in a gorgeous country house, decorated with great taste and surrounded by lush nature, with a wonderful valley and seaside view. An amazing stay.

My husband & I discovered this place by chance & we were amazed 🤩 this is one of the best places we’ve been to. We stayed for 3 nights & we are planning to revisit & stay longer!

Fresh daily produce available breakfast lunch and dinner. The bar features a great mixologist. There are steaks available downstairs and a relaxed, sophisticated atmosphere upstairs with an excellent selection of wine! The service is fantastic; Miriam is extremely helpful and a joy to have around. We are definitely coming back next year!

There are places we dream of seeing… and when we finally do, they turn out to be even more beautiful than we imagined.
Not just in how they look—no Instagram filters needed—but in how they live, what they stand for.
Places that inspire us to live better, to travel differently.

Here, there’s no plastic. Water is filtered on-site. The gardens provide 80% of what ends up on your plate.
And 90% of everything is homemade: honey, olive oil, wine, spices, grains, preserves… the list goes on.

You find yourself immersed in living nature—surrounded by animals, butterflies like the ones we saw as kids, lizards, bees…

Here, luxury means peace, sustainability, and a thoughtful, honest way of managing resources.
It’s a privilege to spend time in a place like this — rare, real, and deeply inspiring.
A kind of paradise we wish existed more often, a little closer to home.

I return with a head full of calm and a heart full of warmth…
And most of all, the desire to do better.
I’ll be back.

Oh… my… god…. This hotel is simply amazing!…. How on earth it’s listed as a 3 star, I have absolutely no idea!… we loved it so much, after our 3rd night (we’d booked a 5 night stay) we added another night! (We had to change rooms, but the hotel made it all so seamless and efficient, we hardly noticed)

All the guests and staff were so respectful and quiet (massively helps they have a no children policy!)… the whole area from dining to relaxing by the pool, was just that, relaxing!

Every direction you look there are amazing panoramic views, which gets you grabbing for your camera!

The breakfasts, lunches and dinners (two options of restaurants) are so unbelievably good. All the food is either locally sourced or homegrown on their farm.

We stayed in one of the ‘glamping tents’. With its own private pool and kitchen facilities, it was a private retreat, within the hotel grounds. The views, interior design and cleanliness were all of the highest quality…. It took a night to adjust to the ‘natural’ outdoor noises, but hey, it’s camping (kinda!)

Honestly, I can’t rave about this hotel anymore… and again, why on earth the 3 star rating!

Exquisite attention to detail, utmost connection with nature and the surrounding area - exceptional food and staff - worth every minute. Our stays are never long enough at Poggio! Curated wine list, interesting staff and amazing views with Corsica in the distance. Make the time, you will be glad you did.

When we arrived at “Poggio Ai Santi” I knew it was going to be special. The property is amazing and you clearly arrive in paradise. The team there is absolutely out of this world. The kindness, the hospitality, the proper service and manners , the smiles , the attention they give you is amazing; it’s like being home. The owner , Francesca, is always there and has an expert eye on everything and she has this kindness and openness which is soo highly appreciated. At the reception you have the wonderful Miriam , always eager to help and so very professional in everything she does and say. She is such a wonderful lady! Eva and Andrea too are so nice and have been wonderful with us all, meaning my partner and my dogs . This place is definitely a paradise for dogs as well. We met so many people with dogs themselves and that made us create a special bond with some of them. At the restaurant we had two great “maître “ Luca and Damiano who assured we had a great time. The waitresses and waiters were all amazing, thank you dear Serena, Gabriele, Gabriel ,Paolo and Sara. I want to thank as well Ekaterini (Catherine) at the grill. It was such a pleasure to meet a Greek compatriot! For breakfast I want to thank Cristina and Daniela, a pure pleasure to the ears and soul with the Brazilian accent and kindness . For the bar thanks to Giulio, Federico Andrea , Marco and Cinzia. Thank you Francesca for putting up this amazing place for us all coming to Poggio Ai Santi. I have spent a week of pure joy and happiness and leaving with an immense sense of gratitude! We will be back this is a promise. With much love for all of you Matt , Gipsy, Hatchi and Christine For breakfast

An absolutely gorgeous hotel on a hilltop farm with splendid views of the rolling hills, the sea, and on a clear day Elba. The rooms are charming. The breakfast buffet is incredible. The owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. We walking from here an hour to San Vincenzo beach and back which was lovely. We were there in Spring, but were blessed with good weather. The swimming pool was under construction but by summer 2024 should be wonderful. The only downside is that the menu is very limiting for pescatarians or vegetarians (literally no options for some courses) so we ate there only once, which is a shame because the tastes were delightful. When we mentioned it we were met with “you can order vegetables” which given the entire choice was potato or fennel is not quite what we had in mind for a special meal. Nevertheless we would recommend it as a lovely place to stay.

The place, the food, the materials used and of course the wonderful nature and splendid people, maybe we shouldn’t be so enthusiastic about this place because it will only become more difficult to spend more time here in the future without booking months in advance. A most wonderful and pure hideaway.
