Marielena Authentic Chianti Retreat: Panoramic Views & Private Hot Tub for a Chianti Lifestyle Experience

Villa Marielena is a beautifully restored Tuscan farmhouse located in the prestigious Castel in Villa area of Gaiole in Chianti, one of the most renowned wine regions in Italy. Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, the villa offers privacy, panoramic views, and direct access to the landscapes that make Chianti famous.
The property enjoys a privileged position for exploring Tuscany’s wine country. The vibrant town of Castelnuovo Berardenga is only 8 km away, while Siena and many of the region’s most celebrated wineries are within easy reach. Guests can enjoy the tranquility of the countryside while remaining close to excellent restaurants, local trattorias, and Michelin-starred dining.
The villa is set within a fully private garden that surrounds the entire property, creating a peaceful and secluded atmosphere with open views across the rolling hills of Chianti.
Outdoor living is at the heart of the experience here. A traditional Tuscan outdoor kitchen and dining area invite guests to enjoy long dinners under the stars, while the panoramic terraces provide the perfect setting to relax and take in the surrounding landscape.
The villa features a premium heated hot tub for six guests, offering a comfortable and relaxing experience throughout the year. It is refreshing during warm summer days and especially enjoyable in the cooler evenings of spring and autumn, when the Tuscan countryside becomes even more atmospheric.
Villa Marielena combines authentic Tuscan stone architecture with contemporary interiors, creating a comfortable and elegant setting for enjoying the Chianti countryside.
