Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of Empoli, Italy, Villa La Perla Bianca is an extraordinary vacation rental that transports its guests to a world where timeless elegance meets contemporary comfort. Approached along a majestic cypress avenue and framed by towering trees that ensure complete privacy, this early 1900s eclectic-neoclassical villa stands as a true architectural gem, its white façade adorned with intricate decorations that speak to a refined and storied past. Spanning approximately 700 square meters across 4 floors, the property seamlessly blends the grandeur of its original design with the finest modern amenities, offering an experience of sober luxury that is both captivating and deeply restorative. The villa is set within a private 1,800 square meter park, where lush green lawns and mature perimeter trees create a serene and secluded retreat. Guests benefit from dedicated parking spaces accessible via a separate entrance on Via Rossini, high-speed Wi-Fi connectivity available throughout the property including the poolside veranda, and ample yard space that invites relaxation and outdoor enjoyment at every turn. A pre-season technical inspection has been carried out by a qualified manager to verify that all described features, accessories, and facilities are present and in full working order, ensuring maximum quality, cleanliness, and comfort throughout your stay.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa La Perla Bianca are nothing short of spectacular, offering a seamless extension of the villa's interior elegance into the natural world. At the heart of the park lies the swimming pool, a rectangular 10x6 meter basin with a depth ranging from 0.90 meters to 2.20 meters, finished in shimmering mother-of-pearl tiles and surrounded by a solarium in white marble. The pool is equipped with a hydromassage area featuring circular seats, a counter-current swimming function, and a decorative wall complete with a shower, water features, and a lighting system. An extendable cover allows the pool to be fully enclosed and connected to the adjacent glazed veranda, forming a single unified space of approximately 180 square meters that is entirely usable even during the winter months, as the environment is equipped with heating that brings the air temperature to between 24° and 30/32°C and the water temperature to a maximum of 35°C, making this a heated pool facility in the colder season. The veranda itself is elegantly furnished with sofas, armchairs, tables, and a dining and reading area, and is connected directly to the interior of the villa through the wellness level. Sun loungers are arranged throughout the park and solarium, inviting guests to make the most of the outdoor environment. The main park is predominantly planted with grass and enclosed by tall green trees along its perimeter, offering a sense of total seclusion. A large dining area adjacent to the pool provides an ideal setting for al fresco meals, while the contrast between the historic architecture and the contemporary outdoor facilities creates an atmosphere of rare and refined beauty. Please note that photo shoots are typically carried out in spring, so the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and park may appear different upon arrival depending on the season.

Key internal features include the Salone dei Medici with a 14th-century pietra serena fireplace bearing the Medici coat of arms, and the Papal Apartment which once hosted Popes Leo X and Clement VII.
