It was an amazing property and Karin, the owner, was super friendly, kind and so helpful. She recommended and made reservations for us and the next day gave us driving directions to get the most out of the area. Our only complaint was the bed. We sleep on a hard mattress at home, but this was the worst. It was hard and lumpy and uncomfortable. We only stayed one night and would not have been able to stay a second in that bed.
...
As stated ablove, our bed was not comfortable at all. The room was amazing and the bed looked so inviting, but it was not comfortable.
...
A wonderful and breath-takingly beautiful place. Great location and wonderful service. Breakfast was wonderul. The only thing is that I would tell my friends to bring an air mattress to put over the existing bed.

The owner came with his car to meet us at
the main square in Montepulciano and to
direct us to the Fattoria.
He was very welcoming, as was his wife.
...
We travel a great deal and stay in
beautiful hotels around the world. This
was a very welcome and refreshing change
from the usual 'hotel' experience. The
owners were delightful and the effort and
energies they have put into the property
have made it a unique and truly beautiful
place to stay. We felt utterly spoilt!
...
I cannot recommend this higly enough. The
facilites were perfect and beautifully
designed - much thought and energy has
gone into making it so beautiful and
peaceful. The setting and location could
not be beaten. The owners are wonderfully
welcoming and accomodating. I didn't want
to leave!

It was simply fantastic! We arrived after a
long drive. Karin (the owner) greeted us with
an absolutely amazing dinner.
...
An absolute must for people who want to
experince the Italian countryside. One of the
best places I've stayed in Italy.

As soon as we pulled up Karin, the owner, came out to greet us. She gave us an extremely warm welcome and was very friendly and helpful.
...
It was a lovely and romantic place to stay. Very homey and the owners made themselves available if we wanted but also left us alone when we wanted. They were very amenable to our needs.
...
Incredible views, very friendly and intersting owners who really care about your stay and want to please.
...
It was a lovely, quaint farmhourse just outside of Montepulciano (about a 10 minute walk). The views of the small city were great (especially at sunset). The rooms were spacious and clean and the owners could not have been nicer. They were genuine, friendly and very welcoming. I can't wait to go back!

Some more detailed directions/maps for
finding the property would have been useful
- we looped around the city a couple of
times before we found our way there.
...
Wonderful, very relaxing and beautiful. The
owners provide a warm, friendly environment.
I want to come back someday.

We had a wonderful stay at the Fattoria. The room was huge and we enjoyed the modern touches in the decor. The owners were always helpful with recommendations for restaurants, vineyards and sightseeing. We were allowed to use the kitchen and enjoyed cooking our own dinner. Everything was very clean and comfortable. They should advertize they use environmentally sensitive and energy consious construction. We admired their use of solar energy and the natural swimming pool. We had the best breakfasts in Italy at the Fattoria.
...
The web site is easy to use, beautifully designed and very accurate in it's pictures and discriptions. The responses were quick and we appreciated getting additional choices for our location and price range.
...
Not needed - everything worked fine.

Not needed.

We were a bit nervous about the severe cancelation policy and almost delayed making the booking. But the booking arrangements went very well and we were glad we heard quickly from the owner, rather than the booking agency. Sometimes all the messages about pasting the long tracking number into a message was a bit confusing.
...
We couldn't find the Fattoria, and stopped at another hotel at teh wrong end of town and called for better instructions. Teh owner drove out to meet us and had us follow him all the way back to be sure we would not get lost. We were extremely grateful.
...
We stayed an extra day and were glad we did. It was a delightful experience in abeautiful location.
...
See above comments about energy consious building practices.
...
Good pictures, accurate locations, easy to use and navagate.
...
It was perfectly located. Close enough to the town to feel comfortable going out in the evening, yet you felt you were in the country. Not isolated as many agrotourism can be. It was so cheerful and charming. The owners were ideal hosts - helpful when needed yet gave us a real sense of privacy. You could tell they cared very much about every detail of the rooms and the meals.

A detailed map of Montepulciano and the directions to the Fattoria should be added online.

A very beautiful relaxed place with a very friendly personal touch

Submitted by Jeffrey
Delightful and worthy of a multi-day stay. Avail yourself of the cooking class if possible - it was a wonderful experience. The hosts treated us like friends, not customers.

Very warm arrival
...
It's worth booking the Suite. The pool is actually more a biological Swimming pond. We loved that, but it should be specified better on the website.
...
Lovely prepared breakfast with selfmade bread, honey, daily specials. Far over average level of breakfast in Italy!
...
As a familiar, very stylish and warm place. Perfect hide out for a long weekend.

We loved our stay at Fattoria San Martino. The Owners and staff were so friendly and helpful and the grounds are so beautiful and peaceful. We can't wait to return for another stay.
...
The swimming pool is more of a wild pond. Not really swimable but very inviting to sit around, relax and watch the frogs.

Submitted by Cath
Fattoria San Martino was an absolutely idyllic place to stay. I felt that I was stepping into the pages of Elle Decoration magazine, with stylish attention to detail in the rooms and throughout. The owner was incredibly hospitable, providing refreshments on arrival, arranging transport for our evening out, and laying on a beautifully presented, imaginative, tasty breakfast to see us on our way. Also appreciated the local knowledge and produce available. I would recommend this place highly to anyone interested in unwinding in tuscany.

One of the best, most welcoming and charming places we stayed at! Owner / staff very freindly and helpful. Home made everything. Great design and clean serene rooms, spacious and quite. It was GREAT!
...
Looking forward to going again! Would chose them if possible
...
A bit complex to get there, better driving instructions desired. One should mention that the accommodations are super nice, superbly designed, all sheets, blankets, etc. all of natural materials, even soaps, etc. Owner prepares most of what you eat.

very satisfied

This is one of the best places that we have ever stayed in. The family is wonderful, the whole place is beautiful and the location is just right.
...
We made a mistake in booking our reservation that caused them trouble but they did not mind and they were very considerate and understanding of our mistake, even though it cost them a night's booking.
...
The family that runs Fattoria San Martino is so nice and the place is wonderful. We almost want to keep it as a secret because it is so peaceful, but that wouldn't be fair. It was a highlight of our honeymoon.

There was some road construction, so the directions were a little confusing. We did find the place eventually!

We had a wonderful stay - Karin and Antonio are wonderful and accomodating hosts. They were able to recommend exfellent restauranats, provide directions to where ever we were going, and told us about some of their favorite places that we were able to visit.
They were acccomodating to special requests, and could not have been nicer.

The rooms are extremely beautiful and comfortable. The bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept on! Breakfast was substantial and delicious - home made yogurt, cereals, fresh baked bread and cakes, honey from the fattoria's bees, and the company was excellent.

Friendly, warm, comfortable. Good physical location for exploring the surrounding hill towns.

I was picturing walking into Montepulciano which would not have been possible.
Also, I thought we would see the olive oil operation. There was no evidence of it until we were paying our bill. There were bottles on display in a little room that we had not been in earlier. The couple was very nice, but very busy without much time to chat or advise on travel planning, etc.
...
Host was not aware that we were checking out. She thought that we were staying longer. She accepted our plans without hesitation and didn't bother looking at our voucher. I thought it was a bit pricy.
...
Rustic, remote farm setting, wonderful beds, nice shower, 10 minutes outside of Montepulciano.

Lots of information that is presented well.
...
One thing...there did not seem to be a good way to modify the reservation between the time I made the reservation request and the time I actually booked. We wanted to drop a day, and had to make a whole new request to do that. Other than that, very good.

this is a lovely place which deserves much success. we cannot believe what Karin and Antonio have accomplished in 5 years! They deserve even more recognition for the fact that it is a biodynamic/green operation. my father in law loved it!

We stuggled to find Fattoria San Martino. There were no signs to direct us to the Fattoria - we did however found he place using the directions by train and asking one of the locals where it is.
...
Excellent!! This is a beautiful place. The rooms are beautifully decorated and are very spacious. Very clean and so much better than a hotel room. Beautiful views - lots of windows. Staff was very kind and helpful too. Had lovely organic breakfasts in a beautiful breakfast room.

Excellent - will definitely recommend

The swimming area was a bit poor, chair
covers were wet and dirty; and old, broken
plastic containers were around.

Beautiful rooms, a quite 'unpolished'
surrounding.
