In the heart of the Tuscan countryside lies Relais La Corte dei Papi a bucolic location of sleepy hamlets, rolling verdant hills, bountiful vineyards, and olive groves.
Set within its own private grounds with stunning Mediterranean flora and ancient olive trees. This elegant 17th-century Tuscan estate is both historic and homely, where original features beautifully blend with modern comforts offering a warm, intimate atmosphere.
The pièce de résistance of Relais La Corte dei Papi is its decadent Spa Suites, where you can enjoy an around-the-clock spa experience in utmost privacy.
Exclusively unwind in a Turkish bath, relax with a multi-sensory shower that offers aromatherapy, chromotherapy, and music therapy, and soak away stress in an oversized Jacuzzi for two – all without stepping out of your very own suite.
Choose the Classic Junior Spa Suite, which features a large social space for you to lounge in after your spa experience. You’ll find even more superior and delightfully roomy spaces in the three Exclusive Spa Suites, or in the Imperial Spa Suite, which boasts its own large private garden, offering utter seclusion from the outside world.
The Relais La Corte dei Papi team can arrange private spa treatments all from the comfort of your suite, whether that’s a facial, reflexology, or a romantic couple’s massage.
If you’re celebrating your honeymoon or a special wedding anniversary, then why not upgrade to L’Antico Granaio otherwise known as the Bridal Suite?
