This 5,000-acre estate is located within UNESCO’s Val d’Orcia Natural Park and in the heart of the Brunello di Montalcino wine-making region. Make yourself at home in a stylish suite or Tuscan villa with exquisitely landscaped gardens and heated, stone-clad swimming pools. Visit the on-site winery, and learn to cook a delectable three-course Tuscan meal in a private cooking lesson, or simply embrace la dolce far niente — the sweetness of doing nothing.

Art lovers will appreciate that the furniture is crafted on site by St. Lucian artisans. Enjoy your own private heated plunge pool and open-air design with unobstructed views of the majestic Pitons and deep blue waters. This island is lush and spectacular any time of year, but springtime brings ideal temperatures and lesser crowds, too.
