Property is ideal for two/three trip and provides an comfortable backdrop setting to enjoy the wonderful pool, grounds and wonderful lunch menu and selective wine options while at the pool. Property is truly unique, spacious and offers a feeling of tranquility as the castle feature 18 rooms, indoor / outdoor dining and a lovely livingroom setting coupled was fantastic art while offering guests a light and wonderful breakfast spread. Some areas / concerns to be mindful of though. 1. The property / castle is challenged with an AC system that cannot accommodate cooler temperatures which leaves the room temperature at a minimum of 24C / approx 75F degrees despite leaving the AC on throughout the day which provides an uncomfortable room temp after a long hot day. All rooms in the hotel cannot physically go below 24 C at any time period which was very concerning when you’re paying for a luxury hotel experience. The entire hotel setting (lobby, hotel rooms, dinning area) all are kept at 24/25 C and for these reasons it would be hard to justify returning to this hotel. The restaurant: The overall backdrop setting is wonderful but the menu/ food lacks the depth, flavors and or a true culinary experience that would justify considering this Menu. Perhaps a bottle of wine would be a wise option to enjoy in the yard but we would carefully suggest only considering lunch at the pool vs eating dinner at the property which we found to have many limitations.

Absolute peace and relaxation in beautiful surroun
Absolutely loved this hotel. It is a very quiet beautiful place, perfect for a relaxing break. Staff were so friendly and all seemed to be local and so proud and knowledgeable about the food and wines from the region. We would love to go again.

Wonderful stay at Vinilia
Our recent stay at Vinilia Wine Resort was without a doubt one of the best Resort Experiences we have had. We travel extensively and have stayed in some of the top Hotels/Resorts in the world and can put Vinilia at the top. It is 5 star plus. The staff went out of their way to ensure our stay was exceptional. We felt very taken care of during our entire stay. We had dinner twice: the food, wine and atmosphere - tops! The breakfast buffet amazing with the selection, freshness, taste, fresh baked goods. I have never seen a better breakfast buffet anywhere. The property is well taken care of, quiet, private and beautiful. The rooms are well appointed and reflect the design and architecture of the property and region. We recommend them in every way. And we will return to stay there again.

The staff, room and the Hotel were superb. Very friendly, helpful and efficient. The food was excellent and we had a lovely 4 nights there. Only thing is that you would need either a Satnav or very good directions to find it. We got the GPS coordinates from the Hotel in advance and the TomTom did the rest.

We celebrated out first wedding anniversary at Vinilia and had a fantastic 3 night stay! The service throughout was impeccable and we were so well looked after for our anniversary dinner (food excellent too). The rooms are gardens are great, with a really tranquil setting (rabbits hopping around etc.) and a lot of the time it felt like we had the place to ourselves. Its ideal for a quiet relaxing break, but there's not a lot in immediate surrounding area if you're looking for activities, although they are lots of lovely towns a short drive away with excellent restaurants/wine tastings etc. I'm sure the hotel will go from strength to strength over the coming years as they continue to develop it - looking forward to returning!

Wonderful, relaxing stay in a beautiful resort
Superb! Fantastic resort, beautifully decorated, great service. I was upgraded upon check-in and I was so impressed with my room! The sommelier was really knowledgeable and was able to recommend some great local wineries to visit. This included the winery belong to the owners of Vinilia itself (two female winemakers), Trullo di pezza, which was a great way to spend an afternoon, in a lovely tasting room, tasting some fantastic local wines! The food was absolutely amazing too. Not cheap by Italian standards but top notch. I can't recommend this place enough for a relaxing weekend visit. Actually, it would be even better with a spa! I plan on returning with a group of friends in the near future!!

Decepção/Preconceito/Frustação
Extremamente Decepcionante, chegamos ao hotel com uma grande expectativa pois estávamos comemorando uma data importante e já no checking pedimos para jantar e para nossa surpresa nos informaram que o restaurante estava lotado e havia um evento nos mandaram comer na cidade que é 5km do hotel ( Estrada de térrea e sem iluminação)e não teriam serviço para nos atender com lanches … Ficamos horrorizados pois impossível este tratamento…em um hotel que se paga uma diária de ~ 500 euros.. Depois de solicitarmos muito e implorarmos nos serviram 2 pratos ,em uma área fora do restaurante e não ofereceram o cardápio e nem deram opção de sobremesa e o pior .. perguntamos o valor e nem isso informaram.. Nos sentimos extremamente desconfortáveis ,pois fomos atendidos de forma preconceituosa ,não sei se é devido a nacionalidade,pois ficamos observando durante muito tempo e havia no restaurante principal várias mesas vazias e não vimos nem evento ocorrendo.(fotos anexas) Informaram que deveríamos ter feito a reserva antecipada e o hotel havia nos enviado e-mail ,obviamente nunca recebemos .Tentamos conhecer o hotel e os funcionários nos olhavam de forma inapropriada como se fôssemos criminosos. Infelizmente a experiência foi terrível nunca me senti tão mau em um hotel . Nos deixaram constrangidos ,apenas dormimos e não desfrutamos um dia adequado , perdemos a vontade de ficar na piscina ou conhecer a vinícola devido a sensação desagradável imposta pelo Staff e o mau atendimento prestado .

Viagem maravilhosa
Perfeita! Adoramos o local, tudo muito lindo, decorado, limpo. O quarto era de muito bom gosto. O restaurante do chef Pietro é majestoso e seu menu degustação de 5 pratos harmonizados com os vinhos orgânicos de lá por 80,00 euros é divino. Agradecimento especial ao garçom Vicenzo, que nos atendeu com muita cordialidade e atenção. Esperamos voltar com amigos em 2020.

La struttura di certo non ha bisogno del nostro commento, basta vederla e si commenta da sola. Una parola va invece spesa per il personale, poichè per come operano, è evidente che lo fanno con grande passione e professionalità e non come dipendenti che devono fare la loro giornata lavorativa.

Una mansión espectacular
El sitio es precioso y auténtica vida de campo italiana. Callecitas llenas de viñedos y masserías muchas de estas restauradas. El hotel es espectacular, el staff nos trató como reyes. Tiene calles alrededro que se pueden usar para salir a caminar o correr y es totalmente seguro. Si tienes carro puedes salir a pasear a los pueblitos aledaños, todo está cerca. Al ser un hotel muy nuevo aun están por terminar y abrir el spa, al igual que el wifi que está en proceso de mejorar. Seguramente en un par de meses esto no será un tema. Volvería al hotel con toda seguridad.
