12/10/2025: This is our third time here.
Always a few years apart.
What's our impression?
The complex is still very well-maintained. The pool is a nice size, and spending time there is truly relaxing.
This time we had a different apartment, which was also very nice. The gas stove isn't easy to use. The light in the bathroom could be a bit brighter (thanks for the new bright light above the kitchen counter).
Overall, though, it was very comfortable.
The restaurant is very good and highly recommended.
Thank you very much!
01/10/2025: A treasure in the heart of the wine-growing region, far from the hustle and bustle
Familiar from many visits over the years. We are drawn to this region for vacation, and we appreciate the "Gualdo del Re" because it offers a beautiful oasis nestled in a highly award-winning wine-growing region. Here, you can experience wonderful moments far from the tourist crowds. Birdsong and clean air paired with delicious dishes and local wines make your stay something truly special.
The "Gualdo del Re" restaurant is located in an annex to the winery and offers a sensual immersion in the traditional flavors of the Tuscan Maremma, accompanied exclusively by wines from the estate.
In the immediate vicinity, you can reach other important wine producers, such as "Terradonnà," "Tua Rita Societa 'Agricola Semplice," and, a few hundred meters further, "Azienda Agricola Russo" and "Bulichella Winery."
Back to "Gualdo del Re" and its cuisine. A destination without parking worries – truly pleasant. The dining room is covered with a beautiful wooden structure. The glass-framed side walls can be opened, allowing for a pleasant feeling of open air in warm temperatures. There are also additional tables outside under the stars.
Let's get this straight: It's a shame there are no drinks here. The restaurant is conceptually designed around the house wines. As Campari Spritz lovers, we are encouraged to order the house white wine. There is neither Prosecco nor Campari here.
A typical dinner for us starts with a glass of the house white wine, "Vermentino," followed by a typical Tuscan dish from the kitchen, such as a barley mix – delicious, light, warm, and healthy – or "Panzanella croquante," among other things.
The waiter, Lorenzo, often presents a slate board with daily specials and translates into German, which is very helpful for us.
Depending on the menu, a starter and a main course follow from a wide selection of sensual Tuscan dishes that immerse you in the flavor and depth of authentic Tuscan cuisine.
For us, we usually choose Cabraia, a red wine made largely from Cabernet Franc grapes, as our ideal wine accompaniment.
There's usually some room for a small dessert.
Overall, we feel very comfortable at the "Gualdo del Re." For my wife, who doesn't like shellfish, the selection is sometimes limited. But fish and pasta with some kind of ragù are usually available. This is much easier for me because I'm familiar with a wider range of culinary delights.
Just take a look at the photos and form your own opinion.
For us, this location has something of a paradise. As nature lovers, a visit to the "Gualdo del Re" is always something special, and stopping here is a must.
