Set in the hills surrounding Castelnuovo Berardenga, Villa la Curina epitomizes the casual, family friendly Tuscan retreat that JDB clients love. The property boasts magnificent views of the Chianti countryside from the beautiful pool, as well as from many of the rooms. The two bedroom suites are sure to become JDB family favorites with two bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and separate living room. Accommodations are simple and charming with the love of the owners showing through in every detail from the painted tile bathrooms to the meticulously maintained original features of the 16th and 17th century buildings of the villa. The hotel also offers modern amenities like free wi-fi in the lobby and stays loyal to the traditions of Tuscany with its own olive oil production.

Even more impressive than the hotel is the Il Convito di Curina, where Andrea and his wife take great pride in preparing and presenting unique and classical Italian fare of the region. If you didn't know you were at a Tuscan countryside restaurant you would swear you were eating in a high end city hotel, except at Il Convito di Curina you will not be paying city prices or wearing a suit and tie! Complementing the menu is the wine and Champagne list that is hand-picked by the owner, and offers over 100 distinct Champagne labels! A meal here is an absolute must! Private wine and champagne tastings can be organized for up to 10 people in the restaurant's wine cellar.
