Guided by the hand of Simone Cipriani, one of the leading voices in Italy’s sustainable cuisine, Il Ristoro at Valle Benedetta is a living laboratory of authentic flavors, deep care, and creative nourishment.
“We are life partners united by a shared dream: to share a inspired to share a new vision of life, rooted in presence, connection, and meaning. Along our own journeys, we’ve discovered something profoundly valuable: a way of living that feels deeply needed in a world where so many are running on autopilot, only to find themselves later in life exhausted and unfulfilled.
We’re not here for profit. All proceeds from this project will go into a Foundation that ensures its sustainability and growth, independent of us as founders.
Valle Benedetta is the heart of a dream we’ve nurtured for a lifetime, a place where love, harmony, and well-being are not just words, but lived experiences.As the community around us expanded, we felt called to become stewards of this powerful land in the Tuscan hills. With over 30 years of experience in meditation and transformational practices, and 20 years of entrepreneurial journeying, we’ve shaped Valle Benedetta into something more than a retreat center. It’s a living, breathing ecosystem where ancient wisdom meets modern life, a space where people can come Home to themselves.”
