The Villa was wonderful. It is in a great location and accomadated 10 couples wonderfully. The kitchen is small so would not advise booking a cooking class, it was a lot of money just to have someone come cook for you, there was no room to participate. We had some issue with wasps and yellow jacket out by the pool area. The views from the Villa are increditable!!! The Owners Ricardo and Sheri and the care taker Patrick were wonderful. Patrick puts together tours and we spent a couple days touring around with him and had a great time. The villa is about 20 min from Siena and about 45 from Florence. It was good to have a car as it is a little remote but in a really great location. I would recomment this Villa to my friends.

We loved our time in Lucca and especially loved the apartment. It is newly decorated so it was modern, clean with excellent kitchen and bathroom facilities. I think the apartment had the best location in town overlooking restaurants and shops in the amphitheatre below. Bruno the owner was so helpful and really made us feel welcome and provided us with map and he gave us advice on where and what to do in Lucca. Photo below of us looking out of apartment window.

Es war eine tolle Zeit in dieser Gegend. Wir würden jederzeit wieder diese Anlage buchen. Saubere und sehr gut ausgestattete Wohnungen. Die Anlage ist kindgerecht zum Spielen erbaut und sehr gepflegt. Man kann nur + Punkte erteilen. Schöner Pool.
Das einzige was ein bisschen gefehlt hat, sind Kleinigkeiten wir Flyer wo mann den Müll wegbringt ( Zentral im Ort ), Bedienung der Klimaanlage war nur nur Italienisch. Kontakt zum Eigentümer ist sehr verhalten aber trotzdem ok. Man sollte keinen Hotelservice erwarten.
Trotzdem Note 1-2.
Die Gegend ist ein Traum. Zum Wandern , Baden ( Strand ca. 30 min entfernt ). Selbst Segeln und Paragleiter fliegen ist diese Gegend ein Eldorado.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] We had a great time in this area. We would book this accommodation again at any time. Clean and well equipped apartments. The location is suitable for children to play and very well maintained. One can only give + points. Nice pool.
The only thing that was missing a little, was some information on how to dispose of the garbage (in the centre of the village),and the manual for the air conditioning was only in Italian language. There is little contact with the owner but still ok. One should not expect any hotel services.
The area is a dream. For hiking, swimming (beach about 30 minutes away). Even sailing and paragliding, this area is a paradise.
