Our Story

Villa Meliva – A Love Story in the Heart of Tuscany
Some places carry a story within them. A story of love, nature, and timeless beauty. Villa Meliva is one of those places.
The name Meliva was not chosen at random. It was born from two cherished elements of my life: Melanie, my beautiful and extraordinary wife, and Oliva, inspired by the olive trees that embrace our garden. Together, they form the soul of this villa, a place filled with warmth, elegance, and character.
Villa Meliva is nestled at the foot of the ancient Castello Montecchio Vesponi, a hidden gem between the historic town of Castiglion Fiorentino and the world-famous Cortona – known from the book and film Under the Tuscan Sun. From the villa, you overlook the charming town of Castiglion Fiorentino, as if time has gently paused.
The sun slowly glides over the hills, its light dancing through the olive trees, as you enjoy an espresso or a fine glass of local wine.
Villa Meliva invites you to slow down, to dream, and simply to be. Let yourself be carried away by the magic of Tuscany, and feel at home in a place where the beauty of life is all around you.
