Picture a castle in Tuscany with a private pool, cool and chic modern interiors, views over the Tuscan coastline, and a charming garden… sounds like a dreamy spot for a vacation in Tuscany, right? Almost too good to be true, in fact. But, Villa Maestosa is a very special gem that offers all that and more! For those looking to book an extra-unique luxury property in Tuscany with endless charm and all of the bells and whistles that you could possibly ask for, this is the property for you. With still great availability for summer 2024, it is the perfect time to book before others beat you to it. Don’t miss out and secure your holiday in Tuscany today.


Boasting three bedrooms and four bathrooms and sleeping up to six guests in total, this is a spacious property where each person has plenty of room. While the extraordinary exterior is the initial selling-point for this remarkable villa, the interiors are also rather special indeed. They feature architectural delights and beautifully curated spaces including a double-height open-plan living room/kitchen, exposed old stone walls and brick arches, a spiral staircase, lots of arched windows and massive glass doors allowing you to take in the surrounding views, exposed-beam ceilings, terraces with views, and even showers with views (but don’t worry, you’re located in an elevated spot far above any neighbours, so you can admire them from the shower without concern).
