Living in the Present: A Day of Wellness at One Belvedere Tuscany & Locanda Le Piazze

Tuscany, with its rolling hills, olive groves, and vineyards, has long been a sanctuary for those seeking beauty and balance. At One Belvedere Tuscany and Locanda Le Piazze, two exquisite properties founded by visionary entrepreneur Natacha Fazal-Karim-this balance evolves into something more profound: a holistic wellness experience where nature, gastronomy, and restoration unite.
Both retreats embrace the philosophy of "Living in the Present", inviting guests to slow down, nourish both body and spirit, and reconnect with themselves. From expertly restored interiors to Mediterranean gardens filled with lavender, jasmine, and olive trees, every detail has been designed to harmonize luxury with eco-sustainability.

As the philosopher Feuerbach famously said, "Man is what he eats." At One Belvedere Tuscany and Locanda Le Piazze, this principle is lived fully-not just through indulgent spa rituals, but also through nourishing cuisine crafted to heal, protect, and beautify from within.
