San Giovanni delle Contee is a village in Tuscany, central Italy, administratively a frazione of the comune of Sorano, province of Grosseto, in the tuff area of southern Maremma. At the time of the 2001 census its population amounted to 224.

San Giovanni delle Contee is about 90 km from Grosseto and 12 km from Sorano, and it is situated along the Provincial Road which links Sorano to Castell'Azzara.

It was included — alongside Castell'Ottieri, Montorio and the castle of Sopano — in the small County of Ottieri in the Middle Ages. The county was abolished in 1616.
