Tribewanted Monestevole Hotel

I have now been four times and I love this place! The team running Monestevole are great hosts and are genuinely passionate about what they do. I adore Italian food and wine and here you have a unique opportunity to be part of the process in growing and preparing what you eat! I've planted farro and lettuce, and harvested everything from olives to wild mushrooms. Then you get to help Dani and Laura in the kitchen to make handmade pasta, pizza and fresh bread. The setting and the hospitality are exceptional and I will definitely be going back. You always meet interesting fellow guests — and it's a lovely option for solo travellers. Don't change a thing!

… project, place and people of the highest quality!

I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Monestevole. It's a beautiful place to stay, with great food and views of the Umbrian mountains, plus you learn a lot about how to live sustainably. Both the people and the dogs are very welcoming, had some great conversations with the former and great walks with the latter.

Great food, atmosphere, mountain views. Top notch staff.

My second trip to Monestevole, and it won't be my last. Great food, views, hospitality and a great opportunity to learn about sustainability and how to incorporate it into your own life.
In the summer I spent my time relaxing in hammocks or by the pool enjoying a book, nightly bonfires with interesting people also visiting from all over the world, taking hikes with the company of Dolly and Wow — the resident dogs and mascots of Tribewanted and stuffing myself full of great homemade Italian meals.
In my winter visit for a month long course in sustainability (for those that like to get their hands dirty) I enjoyed fires indoors, great discussions, watching documentaries, more hikes, impromptu music sessions and sing alongs, feeding the farm animals, building mud walls, gardening, cooking with Daniela and Laura, planting trees, making soap among many other gratifying hands-on experiences. Whatever your reason for visiting, Tribewanted is sure to please. I have no idea why there could possibly be any bad reviews of this place. Take my advice, as I've experienced it first-hand, multiple times — it's a magical place you're sure to fall in love with!

Highly recommended! The food is amazing and I loved working in the gardens and with the animals. With the warm and friendly community, as well as the romantic and tastefully restored old stone buildings, I like I lived in Italy, not just visiting. Soil building and permaculture strategies are very inspiring. Deeply rewarding!

Our visit at Tribe Wanted Monestevole was excellent. The people, activities, accommodations and food was above and beyond what I expected. We had a large group of 22 people who made deep and lasting connections here with the staff and the land. We were always treated with respect and felt a part of a family. The relaxed family style living allows a space for conversation and bonding. The food, olive oil and wine is locally grown and made. Above all, the project here provides an amazing learning experience for anyone who wants to learn more about permaculture and sustainability. We also had yoga classes in a gorgeous space overlooking the valley at Monestevole. You can easily access other towns to explore that are well worth the visit. I would highly recommend if you want to experience Italy, that you try to spend time at a place like this! Not only is the view breathtaking, the bedrooms are so comfortable and clean.

My grandson and I spent time on Vorovoro and I believe everyone there at the time had a part in shaping the young man my grandson is today! My grandson Kole is set to graduate from Boot Camp at the end of December and is a member of the US Navy. Kole got to experience people from different cultures and beliefs coming together for the common good. If I had the money I would be with tribewanted now with another of my grandsons. It truly was the best experience I've ever had and the fact I shared it with my grandson was even better. You can watch Kole wrestle on YouTube by searching for Kole Fiji wrestling quite fun. Much love to Fijian family and Va's cooking is something Kole still speaks of. Much love for all Tribewanted members. Pat Reichler.

Hello everyone, Monestevole is a very beautiful location, where you can find peace and tranquility and above all a breathtaking visit. Great genuine food got from their products. Queen.
