Badia a Coltibuono Wine Resort, Gaiole in Chianti

Badia a Coltibuono, dating back to 1051, is the first wine resort in Chianti that promises an unforgettable experience. With sprawling 800 hectares of woodland, it's the perfect playground for trekking, mountain biking, e-biking, and hiking—all without ever stepping off the property.

As you wander through the enchanting woods of Badia, keep an eye out for Cetamura, our fascinating archaeological site featuring a sacred well and a glimpse into the beginnings of viticulture. You can also check out the artifacts showcased at the Origo Museum in Gaiole, just a short drive from our hotel.

If you're a fan of cooking, you’ll love our unique cooking class that dives into traditional Tuscan cuisine right from a historic family kitchen where Lorenza de' Medici once ruled. Nowadays, the “Signore delle Cucine” carry on her culinary legacy. Don't miss out on the guided tours of the abbey, our ancient wine cellar, and tastings of our exquisite wines, including some cherished historic vintages that promise to make your days truly memorable.

When it’s time to unwind, the magnificent Italian Garden and our private hydromassage pool are waiting for you. You can also chill by the outdoor pool. Perched at 650 meters above sea level, summer days here are delightfully warm, while evenings bring a refreshing coolness to our panoramic restaurant. Plus, you’ll have WiFi access in your rooms and all common areas—so staying connected is super easy!
