Amazing Spacious Villa Nestled in Hills above Lucca
Our extended family of 22, including an infant and two toddlers, stayed in this beautiful, well appointed villa in the hills above Lucca during the Christmas holiday. The villa was perfect for multiple couples / families as there were clusters of rooms with a common area located throughout the two story villa which allowed for privacy. Every room had its own bathroom as well. The home and rooms were beautifully decorated. The views and grounds were spectacular. The host and owner were extremely responsive to our questions and needs throughout our stay. The lovely historic town of Lucca was a short drive away. There were markets, restaurants and wineries near the villa as well. The indoor pool and sauna were well used by our group. The host provided many recommendations including a cooking class by Tamara done at the villa — it was a great experience for the group! Also I highly recommend the wine tour and lunch at a nearby local organic winery and olive oil farm at Frattoria Colle Verde. I highly recommend this Villa.

Voyage at Villa Valgiano
Our family of 22 including my 4 adult children, spouses and 12 grandchildren spent the most exciting time at Villa Valgiano for a week. The Villa was beautiful, the views boundless, the service unbelievable and the manager, Daniela Cetti was better than excellent helping us before, during and even after our week. It was delightful meeting the owner frequently. The chef we selected, was Tamara and she was superb along with other suggestions from Daniela. The last evening will remain forever as a fitting conclusion with entertainment and dining in the lemon room. what more can you ask for. One small recommendation-provide larger wastebaskets in the rooms. Beyond that - MAGNIFIQUE!!

Great Destination Wedding
We loved the Villa. With 24 people together, it was very comfortable. The kitchen and huge dining table were fantastic for big family meals. We used a local chef, Antonella, for the most fantastic dinners. If we were to come again, we would hire her for 2 meals per day as we spent a lot of time getting groceries to serve 24 people and the store was 20 minutes away. The Villa’s age means the hot water didn’t seem to always work and the beds weren’t the most comfortable, but that did not bother us. Our only concern would be the worry of having the owner on the property most days. He was watching and would report things he didn’t like that we were doing such as moving the furniture to accommodate our needs or forgetting to put pool umbrellas down at night and then the house manager would email us during our stay to remind us of rules. That created a little unnecessary stress during our vacation. In spite of that, it was just fantastic and the perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. The views are simply incredible! This Villa will always hold a special place in our hearts and we hope to come back one day. Would absolutely recommend this for a family reunion or wedding venue.

Wonderful stay with our group of 18
We loved our stay at Villa Vallagiano. The property was as described and we were fortunate to have spectacular weather when we were there. The pool was wonderful outside. We did not make use of the spa room as it was not what we needed for our stay. The house was perfectly layed out for our group. We hired a private chef for the entire week of our stay and they were absolutely wonderful. It made our week so relaxing and enjoyable. This was a magical week for our family.

Stunning property with lots of great amenities!
This property was perfect for our large family. Everyone had their own bedroom and bath. The common areas were large enough for us all to dine and enjoy time all together. The wine (stocked) was a great bonus as was the spa and indoor pool area. One of my favorite spots was the outdoor dining room! Great views and protected from the elements we could all dine outside together with a view of the pool and the Tuscan valley. This was one of my favorite places of all time!

A gorgeous countryside villa.
The villa was as beautiful as described, the pictures don’t lie! It overlooks an amazing winery, which we visited and it was a fantastic experience. The villa was a perfect place for our large group. The house manager was great about taking care of any questions or needs we had during our stay. We also had some of our meals prepared by the chef they suggested. Alice prepared some wonderful food for us. She even arranged for some live music for us on our last evening together. This is a MUST if you are a large group and want a countryside Tuscany experience.

Paradise in Lucca-Valgiano Village
We had such an amazing birthday celebration in this idyllic setting a sumptuous food prepared by local chef Alice, beautiful music by guitarist named Lucarelli and lovely pro-secco gifted by the helpful and friendly owner. We enjoyed Paolo Monti’s cooking class, a Puccini concert at San Giovanni Church and a wonderful tour of the Cinque Terre. Ob-viously not only is the villa a private paradise but the location is perfect. Our hosts were so helpful with informationfor all the activities. Thanks!

An amazing villa with fantastic views. It has everything needed for a perfect large group holiday.
I can't not fault the villa, it's even nicer than the photographs! The owner has thought of everything to ensure a perfect stay for large groups. The kitchen and two large dining tables are great. The outdoor Lemon house is brilliant, with its huge dining table, relaxed seating and cooking facilities. The 360° views of the quiet hills and vineyards are breathtaking. The outdoor pool is great, but take plenty of bug spray. The indoor plunge pool was ok. Finally, dispite turning down the AC in bedrooms durning the day, never using the Sauna and keeping lights off when rooms were not in use, we were surprised by the accessive electricity and gas cost. At the end of the seven day stay, we paid over 1000 euros, from the 2500 euro cash retainer. So be prepared. I would highly recommend the villa, and i look forward to booking it again!

Nice Stay
Villa Villagio was the perfect size villa for our family. The Villa was lovely with all bedrooms having a bathroon attached,large dining room ,sauna and indoor swimming pool and best of all it had magnificient views. The housekeeper was very helpful.She came everyday for 11/2 hours with another member of her team to tidy kitchen and bathrooms or any other task we wanted . Although the property was large and beautifully furnished,there were a few things that could have made our stay better. The biggest downside ,i would say was the cost of electricity. It cost around 800euros for electricity for the week and almost 200 euros to heat the indoor pool ( which we only used twice because it was not warm enough). We could not understand why consumption /cost was so high considering there was no heating,and we did not use air conditioning as it was not hot enough to do so. So very expensive ! There were lots and lots of mosquitos !!We all came away with multiple bites despite using antimosquito sprays and citronella candles. In was mentioned there was a BBQ at the villa,but there was no bbq which was disappointing as in the day we liked to spend time by the pool so we would have made use of a bbq if there was one there. Other than this we had a lovely week in Capannori.

Unforgettable Villa Valgiano in Lucca
Villa Valgiano is a 500+ year old, completely restored villa nestled in the hills near the walled city of Lucca. Our 12 couples enjoyed complete comfort. The property has several acres with fig and other fruit trees, and the spiffy infinity pool overlooks a spectacular valley below with Lucca in the center, flanked by Pisa to one side and Florence to the other. The Villa is a beautiful spot to rest and relax, and a perfect location for day trips to many surrounding towns and historic sites. The indoor pool and SPA were a treat. The owners and Mrs Sonia could not have been more helpful in helping us plan and enjoy our trip. 5 star - can't wait to go back!

La casa es muy linda, limpia, grande y súper cómoda. Lo único que no nos gusto fue que los dueños se aparecieron la segunda noche a la 1 am para apagar el calentador de la piscina y nos llevamos un susto porque no sabíamos quién era la persona que estaba entrando, el resto todo muy bien, pasamos unos días excelentes con amigos.
