Lovingly restored to recapture the splendor of the 1400s, this extraordinary property once hosted none other than Galileo Galilei, who is believed to have stayed here during the final years of his life while pursuing his studies. La Limonaia spans 245 square meters and offers an exceptional blend of history, elegance, and comfort. The outdoor area is centered around a serene swimming pool, complete with a built-in sunken lounge and a cozy fire feature that creates an inviting atmosphere. The garden is lush and vibrant, featuring lemon trees and exotic plants sourced from Brazil, evoking a timeless Mediterranean ambiance. A convenient outdoor shower with both hot and cold water, as well as a changing room, allows guests to enjoy the pool without needing to enter the house. Inside, the property has been meticulously redesigned by an architect to preserve and enhance its colonial character. Elegant marble and natural stone surfaces are featured throughout, including in the three luxurious bathrooms. The villa offers three beautifully appointed bedrooms and can accommodate up to six guests. The spacious kitchen retains many of the original architectural elements and materials, carefully restored to their former glory. It is perfectly equipped for hosting private chefs or catered events. The walkable rooftop terrace provides a unique space for stargazing, completely free from light pollution—an unforgettable experience on clear Tuscan nights. Each room is equipped with independent air conditioning and heating systems, and the property includes a fully equipped laundry area with high-end washer and dryer. Throughout the home, carefully selected designer furniture adds a contemporary touch to the timeless elegance of the space. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Massage - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Limo/town car service - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Breakfast available for a fee - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - No elevator - Well-lit path to entrance - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service - Safe ### Things to do - Gym ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 2,691 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/111000000/110140000/110132300/110132299/7b221345.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Dei Pavoni - Luxury Villa on top of hills in Florence Toscana - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 10 Exceptional 1 review CA $2,920 CA $3,336 total includes taxes & fees Oct 7 - Oct 8 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-07&endDate=2025-10-08&selected=110132299&PinnedHotelID=110132299&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36810000/36808600/36808595/w1200h797x0y0-22f05338.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### VILLA PINTELLO - SAN CASCIANO - TUSCANY San Casciano - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-19&endDate=2025-10-20&selected=36808595&PinnedHotelID=36808595&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33090000/33086300/33086208/b96fa96e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### VILLA MEDICEA - Seven Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 25 Careggi Rifredi - Pool - Air conditioning - Outdoor space - Parking available 10 Exceptional 1 review CA $15,597 CA $15,597 total includes taxes & fees Oct 6 - Oct 7 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-06&endDate=2025-10-07&selected=33086208&PinnedHotelID=33086208&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Indoor pool, outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95480000/95473100/95473007/6b862ab5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### NEW Dreaming in Pian dei Giullari Villa with private stunning swimming Pool!
