Having a villa in Tuscany with a pool, in particular, can totally change your vacation. It gives you a place to cool down on the hottest days of a summer holiday, it is a built-in activity to keep any kids in the group happy and entertained, and it offers the option to spend lazy days relaxing by the pool for part, or all of, your getaway in Tuscany.

On Tuscany Villas you will find over one thousand villas with pools in Tuscany to choose between, from large private pools at luxury properties, to sweet country villas with their own pools, to apartments sharing great pool facilities – there is something for everyone. However, among these there are some serious stand-out stars. So, here is a list of some of our favourite pools and favourite villas in Tuscany that you can book to experience for yourself right now!

Surrounded by lush trees and rolling hills, with a nearby lake, Villa Aiale is a beautiful villa with a private pool in the Orcia Valley, one of the most picturesque parts of the famously lovely Tuscan countryside. A true escape in peace and quiet, with natural beauty all around, Villa Aiale is still just 2km (1 mile) from the town of Bibbiano – making it the best of both worlds. For those who want to get away from it all and unwind but to also have ample convenience and comfort to ensure a relaxing holiday in Tuscany.

Villa Aiale is also a luxury villa in Tuscany with plenty of space for a group vacation, hosting up to 14 guests comfortably in seven bedrooms with eight bathrooms. With the private pool, a host of additional services, WIFI and air-conditioning throughout the villa, a plush finish, and all of the mod-cons you could need, as well as an excellent location, this gem is perfectly set up for a dream vacation in Tuscany.

It may come as no surprise to some that Florence is the most visited city in Tuscany. Not only is Florence the capital of the region and the most populous city in Tuscany (with 364,073 inhabitants in the city itself and 990,527 in the metropolitan area as of 2024), but it is also very much the culture capital.

The birthplace of the Renaissance, Florence is only overshadowed by Rome due to its incredible age and sheer size but in almost any other place, this would be the uncontested titan when it comes to art, culture, history, tourist attractions, and more. As it stands, Florence is still considered one of the great cities of the world and a must-see. 

For those who book one of our Tuscany Villas and who come to the region, it is an unmissable spot for at least a day-trip or two but if you want to dive in a little deeper – though any one trip will only allow you to scratch the surface of what it is on offer – then you could book one of our vacation rentals in Florence, instead.

Nestled right in the rich green surroundings of the lush Orcia Valley, a short distance from the little town of San Casciano dei Bagni, famous for its natural hot springs, Villa Danilo is the most adorable and picture-perfect villa in Tuscany. It is located on a little road of the kind that is so common in the area, winding through a beautiful patchwork of fields, rolling hills, and valleys, framed by proud cypresses and other trees. The house itself boasts views over the beyond picturesque scenery, a charming terracotta roof, doors all over opening out into the lush gardens, a leafy porch with an elaborate area for lounging and dining al fresco, and a beautiful private pool with surrounding loungers and parasols. Yet, despite its sweet and dollhouse-like appearance, Villa Danilo is also a spacious property with seven bedrooms (each with its own bathroom) and all of the amenities and mod-cons that one might require.
