Villa Donatelli – Spacious Panoramic Villa, Perfect for Visiting Tuscany

Villa Donatelli – Spacious Panoramic Villa, Perfect for Visiting Tuscany Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Villa Donatelli – Spacious Panoramic Villa, Perfect for Visiting Tuscany, honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from the industrial-sounding street name. But you know what? Sometimes the best places hide in plain sight. This four-star villa sits quietly on Via degli Artigiani, and once you’re through the gates, it’s like stepping into a completely different world — one where rolling Tuscan hills stretch out as far as you can see.

Location & Getting Around

I’ll be straight with you — Chiusi isn’t exactly Florence or Siena, but that’s actually what makes this place work so well. You’re perfectly positioned to explore the real Tuscany without fighting tourist crowds every morning. The villa offers free parking right on site, which is honestly a godsend when you’re planning day trips to Montepulciano or Pienza. I mean, try finding free parking in central Florence — good luck with that. Plus, couples seem to really get this location (the ratings don’t lie), and I can see why.

The Villa Experience

The room I stayed in was genuinely spacious — not just hotel-brochure spacious, but actually roomy enough that I didn’t feel like I was living out of a suitcase. Those panoramic views they mention? They’re real, and they’re spectacular, especially at sunset when the light hits those distant hills just right. There’s something about waking up to that view that makes you want to linger over coffee a bit longer than usual. The whole place has this relaxed, unhurried vibe that you don’t always find at more formal hotels.

Activities & Amenities

Here’s where things get interesting — they’ve got a pool table, which sounds random until you realize how perfect it is for those lazy afternoons when you’ve done enough sightseeing for one day. The hiking and cycling options are solid too, though honestly, I spent more time just walking the local roads and discovering tiny villages that don’t make it into guidebooks. The area around Chiusi is surprisingly bike-friendly, with gentle hills that won’t leave you completely exhausted (unlike some other parts of Tuscany I could mention).

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t the kind of place where you’ll find a fancy spa or a Michelin-starred restaurant, but that’s sort of the point. What you get instead is authentic Tuscany without the tourist markup — and that 9.5 rating starts to make perfect sense once you’ve been here a few days. The location rating of 9.3 tells the real story: you’re close enough to everything that matters, but far enough away to actually relax. It’s the kind of place where you end up extending your stay because you’re not quite ready to return to real life yet.

• David from United States (9/10)

  Spacious and uncluttered home. Excellent location to walk to Chiusi. The long porch had a beautiful view! It was nice to have a washing machine. Andrea was very responsive to any concerns we had. We would absolutely love to return someday!!

• Jacqueline from United Kingdom (10/10)

  It's hard to summarise the property and the location, which are just fabulous. We loved spending time on the balcony as well as inside the house, which is big, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Everything you need is provided and Andrea was really helpful to us on arrival and throughout our visit. As a family of 5 we have stayed in many properties in Europe and UK and all agree this was the best by far. The view is incredible.
  
  The old town of Chiusi is a short walk away and is idyllic. Beautiful restaurants, museums, cathedral, bell tower, and an outdoor bar where locals congregate in the evening. Thoroughly recommend a visit to the area.
