Beautiful natural place. I recommend to arrive really early (before 8am) on weekends. We arrived at 7am on a Sunday and there was already enough people there. But perfect to find a spot and relax before it gets really crowded. Paid 12€ for 5 hours 🅿️. There is a nice restaurant/cafe place right next to it! We definitely going back, probably after summer when less crowded

This is as beautiful in person as it is in pictures. The color is breath taking and the warm temperature is so relaxing. I see a lot of complaints about it being busy due to tourists. Of course it is - it’s a free attraction open 24/7. We wanted to go when no one was there to get drone footage. We woke up at 4:30 AM to do so and glad we did. There were still a few people there even at sunrise. However, you can see from my video - not many. If you want the luxury of an empty hot springs, you better do the work to get up early for it.

Amazing place. Natural, and you can take your kids here as long as they are a bit older. Make sure you pack sandals as the natural forming stones will hurt you. This is an amazing relaxing place. Also, make sure you park and pay on the parking place and not on the front of the shops. You will get a hefty fine.

Our visit was in early October 2022. We were able to find it easily using Google Maps’ directions. We were lucky to find a parking spot very close to the hot spring. This place was magical. I had an Injured knee and was walking with a crutch, but I was still able to navigate the terrain and find a warm pool to relax in. The water temperature was perfect, and the current of the water felt lovely as it passed over me. There were many people at the hot spring, but it did not feel crowded. People were very respectful of each other. Very peaceful. There is a cafe on site (I did not go there) and I saw signs for toilets. This is a spot that is definitely worth taking a trip to.

We absolutely loved coming here during our short stay in Toscana. Definitely try coming really early in the morning to avoid the heat during summer and also the crowd. We went around 6 am and there were people already, but it was still pleasant and you could enjoy being surrounded by nature. The place is also open 24/7 so you can enjoy a night bath, definitely try going during the week, so its’s a bit quieter. The water is pleasantly warm, be prepared to see some little larvae around, you are in the wild, there is no chlorine in the water, insects will always love to come to these waters to lay eggs, but they are 100% harmless, just try to go up near the waterfalls where the water doesn’t stay still, there are barely any there.

The hot spring was absolutely stunning. We could see the hot mist from far. The entire place was amazing. The waterfall, random ponds of hot spring water, the river, the view of Tuscany. I would swim here everyday if I could!! There’s also a very clean restroom and shower room available (free of charge). Of course, the best part was that we do not have to pay a single cent to visit and dip in the hot spring! Parking is readily available. I visited early and managed to grab a spot right outside the hot spring. However there’s also a big carpark with many lots around 300m away from the hot spring. We visited on a public holiday (Dec 26) and the place wasn’t crowded. But the restaurant next door was closed.

Filter the reviews and read all the lowest ratings. It's hilarious and scary at the same time. Yes we did find all those very alive red worms and there were many people with their dogs bathing in the water. Parking was easy, the walk is about 5 minutes. 2€ per hour. We arrived right before 10am on a Monday mid October and it wasn't too crowded. However, lots of people started showing up when we left around 10:30am. Flip flops are a must otherwise the rocks will give you a very strong foot massage. We just dipped our feet in there because there were too many red worms. We thought there wouldn't be any red worms at the hotel pool down the street but they also had them (although very few, like I saw 5 during 3 hours) compared to millions here. The site is beautiful and if we werent with little kids we would probably go in for a real dip.

This is as beautiful in person as it is in pictures. The color is breath taking and the warm temperature is so relaxing. I see a lot of complaints about it being busy due to tourists. Of course it is - it’s a free attraction open 24/7. We wanted to go when no one was there to get drone footage. We woke up at 4:30 AM to do so and glad we did. There were still a few people there even at sunrise. However, you can see from my video - not many. If you want the luxury of an empty hot springs, you better do the work to get up early for it.

Amazing must see, Worth the time to drive here. Water is so relaxing you can soak for hours! Bring a picnic and relax. The most unique Hot Springs. Lots of people but plenty of space to find your own spot. ITS FREE!

What a special place on earth!! The setting of the pools is magic and the water is so cozy and warm! We were there in the late afternoon beginning of June, and there were not so many people around. Entry is free all day and night long. Parking is close by, but its height is restricted (not possible if you have a campervan). The place is famous, but for a good reason.

That was a great experience. The cool thing is it's free (except parking) and there's a restroom out there plus you can purchase a shower and a locker. The springs itself was so good, but you need to be careful as it's very slippery

I had heard horror stories of just how many people visit this site, so was pleasantly surprised to find only 20-30 people here on a sunny winter's day. Incredibly picturesque, water is an amazing temperature, and plenty of space for everyone above and below the falls. Make sure you use sunscreen!

We parked at the parking few hundred meters away. There was no way to pay, a qr code sent mw on website of sis company and i spent 5 useless minutes navigating there and searching for muvin app. Then we walked and the area with the pools was pretty full, but charming and attractive for a warm bath.

Parking is just up the road, pay and display at 3,5 euros per hour. Get changedin the car, remember not to leave valuables. We rented a locker for 5 euros at the cafe next to the spring, so we did not have to worry about our valuables or car keys when we vent for a soak in the beautiful hot spring. It is free to enter, and there are several terraces you can soak in. It is probably full up in high season, even in low season when we visited (mid October) on a weekday, it was full of locals and tourists. You will smell like rotten eggs, and you silver jewellery will taint black from the sulphur. After the dip, you can get shower at the cafe, 1 euro for 2 minutes, and it helps with the smell. Well worth the unique stop.

Fantastic looking place. Well worthwhile visit. There is no change for entry, and the pools and springs are open to the public. We visited mid December and the location had maybe two dozen bathers but can imagine it gets very busy during the summer months. Public showers and Toilets are very close by. And paid parking is available about 500m away. A restaurant is onsite offering usual tourist location food and drinks

It is a spectacular place, the water falls at a super strong pressure from the waterfall and it is spectacular to feel that hot water, you feel in a spa and the tranquility that being in those waters gives you makes you feel rejuvenated, I recommend going at 5pm to Being able to see the sunset, which is spectacular, the place does not have free parking and entering the waterfall is completely free. However, the smell that the waterfall gives off can be annoying or very strong for some people. Remember to bring a towel and shoes. comfortable and swimsuit to live that unique experience that is worth living and even more so if it is as a couple.

Amazing hot spring and the water was clear, comfortable and warm. I highly recommend visiting it when you are around the area. It is free of charge and open 24/7.

I wouldn't waste your money. The service at the hotel was terrible and staff were not helpful in the slightest. My fiancé and I were in Italy looking at wedding venues when we came across this hotel and spa. We decided to stay a couple nights and ultimately thought we would bring our bridal party here a couple days before the wedding. The experience was terrible, besides the pool there was nothing good about this hotel. I would never go back, recommend or bring friends and family there. The restaurant located on the property did serve good food but both nights we waited over an hour to be served, were not offered water either nights, was only able to order one drink and when we tired to order another they never brought it. The breakfast was the same, we ended up going and getting the water from our room, I asked for coffee multiple times before they brought it and both mornings the cutlery were dirty that was on the table. When we were sitting pool side we asked for someone to come over and help put the umbrella up multiple times before we finally figured it out and still no one came over. We saw some people getting pool side service but a majority of people weren't offered anything. When we went to the bar to ask for a drink to have at our seat they told us they would bring it out when they could and it took them 45 minutes to bring it. Overall I'm happy that service was this bad to avoid wasting any more money on the property. For the price of this hotel they should be giving 5 star service and I can guarantee you that you won't get that.

Very disorganized service. Despite we have booked way in advance we had to queue for long time. The towels were not included. Hygiene level very low. It looked like a public swimming pool,not a resort with spa. For us that we had to travel a lot to come and visit Saturnia it was a very unhappy experience. Not recommended at all. The public ones were much better!

The Terme di Saturnia are a group of springs located in the municipality of Manciano in Italy, a few kilometers from the village of Saturnia. The springs that feed the baths, which are found in the south-eastern valley, cover a vast territory that stretches from Mount Amiata and the hills of Fiora and Albegna rivers to the Maremma grossetana at Roselle (Terme di Roselle) and Talamone (Terme dell'Osa).The sulphurous spring water is at a temperature of around 37.5 °C (99.5 °F). The main thermal waterfalls are the Mill Falls, located at an old mill as well as the Waterfalls of Gorello. The yield of the source is about 800 liters per second, which guarantees an optimal replacement of water. The chemical make-up is sulfur, carbon, sulfate, bicarbonate-alkaline, earth, with the presence of hydrogen sulfide gas and carbon dioxide. The minerals dissolved in water amount to 2.79 grams per liter. The area of Saturnia Spa contains a luxury spa of Terme di Saturnia.

There's nothing more relaxing than going to Terme di Saturnia and dip into its thermal baths and see the beauty of this place. It is my first time going into a thermal bath and I am very happy that I went here because it has been a very good experience for me. The place is free and there is a nearby parking. Perhaps the only problem is that there are no free public changing rooms and bathrooms aside from the private one (you need to pay). Make sure to bring slippers for convenience and bathrobe so you can easily cover yourself after going into the thermal bath and not catch a cold. Overall, the place is good and the view is stunning. I have never felt more relaxed!

We are a family of 5, with 2 boys of 8 yo and 11 yo. To start with the website in english version was a very bad experience, the site just hang there and does not allow you to process the booking❌. Fortunately enough I managed the bookings for 2 days with a lot of google translation.📝 When we get there my boys (who are good swimmers with 5 swimming diplomas each ) were only allowed to go to the small kiddie pool of 60 cm deep😔. Really NO excitement for them to sit in there. We left the place in 30 minutes, returning to the Cascate. Feeling sorry for my boys. Paying Euro 339 of worthless fun. Never return for the 2nd day.

Beautiful spa in hot springs. Very reasonable prices (€27 pp per day). Place offers a full line of pampering services including saunas and massages)

As another reviewer said, this place is not a spa. Just an over priced, overrated, under served and outdated community pool. Saturnia is a beautiful place, however, do not waste money visiting this place even if your local hosts highly recommend it.

Scam. Take care. Chiara at the front desk is calling you stupida and thinks we don’t understand. They make advertising with the waterfalls they don’t have because they are for free.

Excellent golf course and dining experience. Rooms are large and well-furnished. Guests are high class. Thermal pool on site.

To begin with there are a few areas here with similar names, make sure you know what you want (not this place). If you want a spa come here, but it is 30 euros, towel, robe and chair not included! And they have a “strict” dress code which said it has to be white towels and robe only. We saw persons not complying and nothing happened. The water is a nice temperature, but if you are squeamish there are tiny worm and slime floating in the water. The bistro serves sandwiches which are low quality (see picture of gross lettuce). Minimal insect control in seating areas. Overall, it’s not worth it.

Tuscany is a beautiful place surrounded by mountains. Terme di Saturnia is a very special place due to the thermal water that comes from the Roman times. Very healthy for the skin, bones and Breithing issues. The temperature of the water is 36.5 Celsius. A real pleasure for the mind and the body. Specially for your joints and osteo arthritis issues.

It’s hard to believe this is 5 stars location. This is not a spa, but a watering hole. My locker was full of insects and dirty. The pools were not kept up with. I have never been so disgusted.

The pool was not very warm. There were mosquitoes and little worms all in the water. It didn't seem very clean. Left after about an hour feeling dirty.

rather disappointing overall. feels a bit like a public pool location rather than a high end spa destination. not the cleanest and not the most top-notch service. we expected far more from all the buzz you hear about this place.......montacatini up north is far superior and worth the extra money........i also recommend a visit during the winter and not when the temp is 100 degrees farenheit, not that refreshing to say the least. get it together guys!

Best place to enjoy ur vacation . Relax on a natural thermal bath . U can spend as much as you want time Free entrance , healthy bath and . Free parking about 5 mn walking distance . U can bring ur food and drinks and do picnic 🧺. Loved it and would like to repeat it👍

One of the best place in Italy where to enjoy curative water. You will feel refreshed after spending a day here. If you have skin problems or other health issue is super powerful. Really helpful with my skin issues.

Do not come here. It is out of the way and not worth the time. It is about 30 Euro per person including towel and robe rental (required as part of a strict dress code? Unenforced). They let me order a sandwich they were out of and I had to take the receipt to the sandwich bar separate from the register. Service culture zero. But, sure. It's fed by a hot spring.

A small detour is required. Parking juat ij front, few places, but hard to have crowds at this place. You have to research on your own, no info provided. The burial places are peaceful and remind you of the long gone etruscans.

(Translated by Google) Really suggestive, you can visit about twenty Etruscan tumulus tombs dating back to the fifth century. B.C. Beautiful landscapes in the surroundings. Do not expect anything other than what you came for (ie the necropolis), the area is not equipped, there are no bars, meeting places or other. Just a wood, far from any inhabited center. (Original) Davvero suggestivo, si possono visitare circa venti tombe etrusche a tumulo risalenti al V sec. a.C. Paesaggi stupendi nei dintorni. Non aspettatevi nient'altro che quello per cui siete venuti (cioè la necropoli), la zona non è attrezzata, non ci sono bar, luoghi di aggregazione o altro. Solo un bosco, ben lontano da qualsiasi centro abitato.

(Translated by Google) Interesting archaeological site Etruscan tombs dating back to the V VII century BC, also in April you can admire the flowering of the Sycamores. (Original) Interessante sito archeologico tombe Etrusche risalenti al V VII secolo A.C., inoltre ad Aprile si può ammirare la fioritura dei Sicomori.

Zen forest highlighted by Etruscan tombs. When we were there we were the only people there. It was sunny but cold and oh so peaceful and impressive. If ever you wanted to see something off the beaten track this is it.

It was a quaint place to be visiting. Would have been better if it had more signboards describing the places inside the area.

Out of the way Etruscan necropolis. Worth a look around if you’re in the area. No one there.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Etruscan necropolis located a little far from the town of Saturnia. They are places marked by a wooden fence, some have a large dividing stone. There are about twenty of them, all similar to each other. At the entrance there is a plaque with the explanation. Very interesting, although there is nothing inside other than these tombs, but the charm of the place is given by them. (Original) Bellissima necropoli etrusca che si trova un po' distante dal centro abitato di Saturnia. Sono luoghi segnalati da uno steccato di legno, alcuni hanno una grossa pietra divisoria. Sono una ventina, tutte simili tra di loro. All'ingresso c'è una targa con la spiegazione. Molto interessante, nonostante all'interno non ci sia altro che queste tombe, ma il fascino del posto è dato proprio da esse.

(Translated by Google) Etruscan necropolis of Puntone, it is the necropolis closest to the town of Saturnia, the burials are of the tumulus type. It has been explored and unfortunately also plundered since the 19th century, today you can visit around twenty Etruscan tumulus tombs dating back to the period from the 7th to the 5th century. B.C. The tombs, small in size, are characterized by a dromos (access corridor) which ends in the funerary chamber with a rectangular plan and covered in travertine; the latter is sometimes divided into two rooms by a slab also of travertine. The roof is of the "gabled" type with monolithic slabs placed sloping and supported by a central pillar. The place is very suggestive, immersed in the oak and sycamore forest, surrounded by total silence. (Original) Necropoli etrusca del Puntone, è la necropoli più vicina al centro abitato di Saturnia, le sepolture sono del tipo a tumulo. È stata esplorata e purtroppo anche depredata dall’800, oggi si possono visitare circa venti tombe etrusche a tumulo risalenti al periodo che va dal VII al V sec. a.C. Le tombe, di dimensioni ridotte, sono caratterizzate da un dromos (corridoio di accesso) che termina nella camera funeraria con pianta rettangolare e rivestita in travertino; quest’ultima risulta talvolta divisa in due ambienti tramite un lastrone anch’esso di travertino. La copertura è del tipo “a capanna” con lastroni monolitici posti a spiovente e sorretti da un pilastro centrale. Il luogo è molto suggestivo, immerso nel bosco di querce e sicomori, avvolto da un silenzio totale.

(Translated by Google) Small necropolis among oaks and sycamores, a place of great intensity and energy. To visit. There is no charge and can be reached after a fairly long but not demanding dirt road. (Original) Piccola necropoli tra querce e sicomori, luogo di grande intensità e energia. Da visitare. Non è a pagamento e si raggiunge dopo uno sterrato abbastanza lungo ma non impegnativo.

(Translated by Google) The service you don't expect. We went to the Pietro Aldi cultural center on the occasion of an event to promote the area, the site located in the main square of Saturnia hosts a permanent exhibition of the artist Pietro Aldi, a local painter, and also hosts exhibitions of other artists from time to time . The very kind and knowledgeable managers of the center will tell you the history and anecdotes of the place if requested, as well as offering general tourist information. The village of Saturnia is worth a visit and if you visit Polo P. Aldi it won't make you forget it. (Original) Il servizio che non ti aspetti.

Ottima degustazione: accoglienza amichevole, organizzazione perfetta e prodotti di ottima qualità. Grazie per averceli fatti conoscere.

Best bike shop around. We came late with an really old bike with a broken chain. Mechanic came within 10 minutes and fixed our problem within 15 minutes. Very sympathic persons there, gave us tips for further tour. This is real bike service beyond lending/selling ebikes! Thanks a lot & two thumbs up!

Professional service and helpful advice for routes. Quality BMC bikes and the option to deliver the bike to your accommodation is very useful. Giancarlo is a great guide!

Perfect service with bikes (for me it was gravel from BMC) of high quality standard and fitted to measure. Definitely will come back and rent with them.

Top bikes, amazing trails. Courtesy and professionalism. Karin super!! Highly recommended to fully live Saturnia landscapes!!

Great bikes and everything you need for cycling, great staff!

Very good EMTB and friendly service. Highest recommendation. Thank you Karin!

(Translated by Google) Fantastic experience among the Maremma hills. Very friendly and helpful staff. We did a tour with BMC E-BIKE, the pirate wall and a tour arriving at the La Maliosa farm to taste their wine, cheeses and cured meats (super recommended for the wines and artisanal products.) Note of credit to Caterina who did us excellently everything explained!!! very, very good!! The only thing to say is that the dirt road from the red gate to the Maliosa farmhouse is challenging, especially the various descents, not suitable for everyone (especially beginners). The only advice is to let it be known beforehand or in any case have an alternative route for those who are not wanted to go that route. for the rest a truly unique experience. (apart from the 40 degrees 🤪😂 ) thank you very much for everything. (Original) Esperienza fantastica tra le colline maremmane. Personale molto gentile e disponibile. Abbiamo fatto giro con E-BIKE BMC, muro del pirata e giro con arrivo alla fattoria la maliosa per fare degustazione di vino, formaggi e salumi loro (super consigliata per i vini e i prodotti artigianali.) Nota di merito a Caterina che ci ha egregiamente spiegato il tutto!!! bravissima!! L'unica cosa da dire è che la strada sterrata dal cancello rosso fino alla cascina maliosa è impegnativa soprattutto le varie discese, non adatta a tutti (soprattutto ai principianti) unico consiglio è di farlo sapere prima o comunque avere un percorso alternativo per chi non volesse fare quella strada. per il resto una esperienza davvero unica.(a parte i 40 gradi🤪😂 )grazie mille per tutto.

What makes this place special is walking distance to the cascades at Saturnia. Breakfast is fine and there is an option of a short dip in the river running downstream from the cascades past the hotel. The hotel area has a lot of insects; internet is varied and aircon is very weak.

Good place if you want to spend days at the free spring next to it because it has one of the best locations. You can take a walk and in 5 minutes you will be there. They have a great parking and place itself is beautiful. Rooms are good but not the best as some things are broken and some things don’t work (Nothing too serious but in my case the shower door was not locking). The biggest issue is internet. It just doesn’t work anywhere and it works only if you go outside. They do say about the quality of internet so I can’t blame them. I also found out that their wifi was better at the spring than at home. All in all, a great place to enjoy the springs.

My husband and I stayed a night here after a day at the hot springs resort. It’s such a beautiful and peaceful property very close to the public thermal springs. Upon checking in they provided a list of restaurants that were a short drive away. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast room was cute too with all homemade jams and cakes, and local goods. I would’ve loved to stay here longer!

My boyfriend and I stayed here on our Italy road trip. This was a very very nice place - the rooms were clean, quiet and comfortable, and the staff was very accommodating in every way. They have a lovely cat outside to greet you when you first check and check out. The receptionist speaks English. The natural hot pools are within walking distance. Definitely recommend and we will return. An Italy dream.

We've no regret choosing this place as one of our road trip's pit stops in Saturnia. The fact that it's so close to the Mulino hot spring, we can just walk for merely 10 minutes to enjoy the hot spring is super convenience. Part of the river where the hot spring flow by is within the property too. Not to mention the breakfast with freshly baked cakes, croissants, eggs, juices, fruits etc. using the selected ingredients from their own farm. We will choose Le Cascatelle again if we return to Saturnia next time.

Absolutely beautiful very quiet location. Just a short walk from the springs. The hosts are very accommodating and extremely nice. Oh, and the cats are super friendly and funny

What a lovely place. Room was nice and roomy, shower was a little small but it didn't bother me. Breakfast is SUPER! Ingredients were all local sourced, and they have their own winery as well. I bought a case of red there. Right near the waterfall, unfortunately it was under construction but it is a walking distance. Staff were nice and helpful. I highly recommend.

It is more a country house than an hotel, but so cozy that you will forget about it. Nice furnitures, clean rooms, comfortable beds and the amazing breakfast are more than you usually can have in a four star hotel. But the best will come when with a five minutes walk you can go to the famous waterfalls or follow the river that come from them and flows into the owner's property. It's wonderful in all seasons

Beautiful place with a very warm and nice staff! It's very quiet and next to the Cascate del Mulino (walking distance). We stayed in a small bangalo with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 1 kitchen. I really recommend this place if you love nature and a peaceful place! The only sound come from the birds during the day.
