Villa la Borghetta Spa Resort

Romantic Tuscan villa with magnificent views of the valley and pool in an olive garden. You shouldn't expect luxury and impeccable cleanliness, but there is enough of a romantic mood. Everything is quite worn and many places could use some repair and updating, but overall it's still in tolerable condition. The pool is surrounded by olive trees. The pool is not very big, but big enough to swim a little. There aren't many sunbeds right by the pool, but there are plenty of sunbeds further out in the olive trees. From time to time, the horsefly attacked quite actively, especially when you got out of the pool while wet, but this problem is everywhere in rural areas. There is also a small SPA on site, with an indoor pool and saunas, but this indoor pool is not big enough to swim in. For breakfast, both salty and sweet food is offered, but the selection is quite small and the better pastries are only enough for the first ones, they are not brought any more later. Ready-made pot coffee is poor, but you can also order freshly made machine coffee, but it wasn't the best either. The dinner was good, but based on the previous very positive reviews, I expected more. The staff was pleasantly friendly. We didn't really like the first room, it was a good size and had a spacious bathroom, but compared to the advertised pictures it was rather modest in finish and I didn't like the handicap sink. The next day the room was changed and we really liked the new room, although the bathroom was extremely small. Parking is in the garden below, and it is very inconvenient to go up the narrow stairs on the hillside with suitcases, but for this, drive up to the reception door at the beginning and park the car downstairs after unloading your luggage. About 15 minutes drive from the highway. The famous The Mall outlet is also about 15 minutes drive away. As a compliment, drinking water in the room would have been very welcome. There was no possibility to make tea and coffee in the room.

We were so excited to stay at a unique hotel in Tuscany but It was an absolute disappointment. The photos on their website must be from 20 years ago as nothing looked like it at all. Everything is old, run down, dirty. Rooms are full ants and bugs. Bathroom and the shower are full Of mold. Furniture is old, discolored and dirty. Beds are uncomfortable. The manger is an angry man that wants to fight with everyone as no one is not allowed to make a complaint. No one ever answers the phone and when they do, if U have a request, U must go down stairs to get it. For a simple soap, we had to call numerous times and then go to reception to pick it up. Do not go there, you be better off burning your money in a fireplace and enjoying the flames.

Soggiorno di tre giorni e due notti. Camera grande e pulita, letto comodo con doppio cuscino. Prenotato un pacchetto con colazione, cena e 4 trattamenti al giorno inclusi. Le massaggiatrici sono attente e molto professionali. Massaggi meravigliosi. Consiglio un Total body. Veramente interessante la riflessologia plantare. La vera chicca è il ristorante: cene da sogno. Maitre competente. Il posto è strategico per visitare sia Arezzo che i borghi nei dintorni. Esperienza da rifare.
