Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Jaw-dropping views of Poppi Castle and the Casentino Valley
- Unique 'glamping' options like transparent bubbles and luxury treehouses
- Massive grounds with two scenic outdoor pools that never feel crowded
Snel Overzicht: It's a sprawling, self-catering nature retreat, not a full-service hotel—so bring a car and don't expect room service.
Beoordeeld door @michaelacarrot: I honestly felt like a character in a storybook staying here. The way the light hits the glass at sunset is unreal, and waking up surrounded by trees was the most peaceful experience of my life. A total bucket list stay.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there air conditioning?
Mostly no. The Suites and Bubbles have it, but the traditional stone apartments rely on fans and thick walls. It gets cool at night, but July afternoons can be warm.
Is breakfast included?
No. There is no restaurant. You can order a breakfast basket or grocery delivery, but most guests buy their own supplies in Poppi.
Is the pool heated?
The main outdoor pools are NOT heated and are open May-September. The small indoor pool in the private spa is heated.
Can I walk to town?
Technically yes, but it's a steep 3km hike back up. You really need a rental car here.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, in most apartments (fee applies). However, pets are NOT allowed in the Treehouse or Bubble rooms.
Is there a gym?
No traditional gym. They offer yoga classes on request and there are plenty of hiking/biking trails.
