Welcome to Villa Guinigi outside LUCCA for An Amazing Holiday ! One of our recent guests described their experience as visiting a "little piece of Heaven". Certainly, it may feel like the Garden of Eden with it's beautiful landscaped gardens, walking paths and facilities.

The apartment living room is very inviting furnished in traditional Tuscan Lucchese style, over looking a private garden with teak table for outside dining with a panorama view of the Lucca area. The apartment is fully equipped with modern comforts including a 21 inch TV, DVD player, stereo, telephone, and DSL connection. The kitchen has beautiful finishes with stone counters, dishwasher, washer and dryer combo, full size refrigerator and freezer and all cooking equipment. The unit is fully air conditioned with wall units, plus all rooms with ceiling fans for comfort plus double thermopane window system and window shutters for maximium comfort summer or winter cooling and heating.

A visit to Villa Guinigi will be a splendid way to enjoy a relaxing holiday. The sitting room is separated from the sleeping area by a passage equipped with a wardrobe that covers the entire wall close to the bathroom with shower facing the two bedrooms, the mail with a Queen size bed and the other with two single beds that could be combined. Both are furnished in traditional style Tuscan wrought iron beds and furnishings.

Lovely apartment, gorgeous grounds
My 16-year-old daughter and I stayed in the Magnolia apartment, which was was clean, well-equipped, and well-suited to our needs. The patio looked towards the pool and out over the Tuscan hills — it was lovely to sit there in the morning or after a day of touring. The pool is delightful and the setting could not be more perfect. The property is about 15 minutes from Lucca and there is a little grocery store walking distance from the apartment. They make their own cured meats and have a good selection of cheeses. We were able to pick up all we needed there. It’s open in the mornings and then again in the late afternoon and evening. We highly recommend them! In addition to seeing Lucca, we’d recommend seeing the Villa Reale, which is about eight minutes down the hill and has beautiful grounds. Communication with reception was always easy, and Francesco in particular was very helpful. I would recommend the apartment to any friends and family thinking of visiting Tuscany.

Great Experience
Great property. Feels very tucked away, but connected to many cities of Italy as long as you have a car. Also, the villa on site (not where you stay but is in property) was built by Napoleon.

A lovely place to relax, enjoy the views, and sunshine.
We enjoyed 5 nights at the end of July and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff on site were very friendly and organised. The pool was splendid with an amazing view of the Tuscany hills. The flat was clean and had all the amenities we needed. My only negative feedback is the listing which states in two places this is a 3 bedroom villa/flat which is what we were looking for with three children ages 10, 13, 15. After we booked we read the fine print of the listing which said the 'Bedroom 3' is a sofa-bed in the lounge. Very misleading but at the same time I have a relaxed 15 year old who took it on the chin and camped out their under the fan and good air conditioning for the 5 nights.

Loved it, loved it, loved it!!!!
This property was amazingly clean and very nicely decorated. The furnishings were extremely comfortable and inviting. It was a wonderful place for our 4 day stay in the mountains by Lucca. The communication was easy and we would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a very relaxing and well appointed apartment while touring the area around Lucca.

Lovely location, stunning views
The Villa Guinigi is located in a stunning area (be ready for the twists and turns on the road up). Gene provided excellent info in advance and on site Enrico was very helpful and assisted us with every enquiry we had. The pool is wonderful. The Magnolia is a compact accommodation- very rustic Italian. We enjoyed our stay.

Vieles stimmte nicht bei den Angaben der Ferienwohnung
Der Aufenthalt war schön. Die Anlage insgesamt perfekt. Allerdings war die Ferienwohnung angegeben mit 3 Schlafzimmern. Das stimmte nicht. Es waren nur 2 Schlafzimmer vorhanden. Allerdings gab es im Wohnzimmer / Küche ein Schlafsofa. Die Wohnung war angeben mit über 80 m2. Es waren aber nicht einmal 50 m2. Die Klimaanlage funktionierte nicht. Es gab auch nur eine nicht funktionierende Klimaanlage, die dann auch ausgebaut wurde. Die 2 Schlafzimmer waren nicht klimatisiert. Der Schirm auf der Terrasse war defekt und konnte uns nicht mehr beschatten. Es ist schon eine sehr schöne Ferienwohnung aber ein bisschen mehr Ehrlichkeit wäre bei dem Preis schon angemessen.
