Thé stay in villa dell angelo was gréât . Thé house is very nicely decorated and thé swimming pool is great . Thé guardian is very Nice person and helps you every days . I recommence Highly thé location.
We had a wonderful stay at this villa. The location was excellent as it was close to the areas we love: Lucca, Pisa and Florence. The rooms were clean and spacious and enough bedrooms for a large family. The only downside was the drive up the mountain to the villa. It was very winding and narrow and would probably not rent there again because of that.

Elisa and her team were outstanding. They could not do enough to make us feel at home. Whether it was the welcome package or the speedy and effective response to any concerns. Tuscan Hotels will be my first choice for a villa the next time we return to the area. Thank you Elisa!

We had the most wonderful stay at Villa Dell’Angelo! The villa is absolutely stunning – full of Tuscan charm with beautifully restored interiors, spacious rooms, and every comfort you could wish for. The views over the hills, olive groves, and vineyards are breathtaking, and enjoying them from the pool or garden was unforgettable.
The house was perfect for our group: plenty of space to relax, cozy common areas, and well-equipped kitchens for shared meals. The garden and private pool were true highlights, and we loved the sense of peace and privacy throughout the property.
The location is ideal – tucked away in the hills for tranquility, yet just a short drive to Lucca, Pisa, and even Florence for day trips. Getting there is part of the adventure, and once you arrive, it’s more than worth it!
A special thanks to Giovanni, Marco, and the Tuscanhouses team, who were always friendly, attentive, and ready to help. Their warm hospitality made everything smooth and enjoyable.
We cannot recommend Villa Dell’Angelo highly enough – it’s the perfect place for a memorable Tuscan holiday, and we truly hope to return very soon!

We spent one week in villa Dell'Angelo together with our children and grandchildren, we were 6 adults and 5 young children, we really enjoyed our stay! The road up to the villa is interesting (very steep and winding), but it is well worth it. The villa itself is very large and beautifully renovated, with a large well-kept garden, and with a fantastic view over the plains toward Lucca. The many rooms and large gardens gave everyone privacy when needed. There were separate bathrooms for each bedroom, and one extra. There were dining rooms both upstairs and downstairs, and plenty of plates, glasses, cutlery for each dining room. There were two kitchens (and two dishwashers :-)). The kitchens were equipped with everything necessary, lots of everything - we have never previously rented a villa so well-equipped. Outside there was a long table for meals in the shadow. Some meters away from the main garden was the pool area with the beautiful eternity pool, with sunbeds, chairs and parasols for everyone, outdoor shower and a shaded dining table. In the many garden levels there were also a ping-pong table and a fuss ball table. We all had a fantastic week in this lovely villa!
This large, comfortable home was the perfect place for our family of 11 for our vacation. Comfortable beds and a well-stocked kitchen were a plus. Bring citronella rings and bug spray as mosquitos are an issue. The view is breathtaking, and the infinity pool is well-kept. There is a caretaker on the property who was helpful, although he doesn't speak English.
There is a very large Esselunga grocery store close by that has an extensive variety of both food and non-perishable products. Items are reasonably priced. We love to cook so we appreciated the opportunity to try items not available in American grocery stores.
The road to the home is very narrow so take care to use your horn on blind curves, and know that passing an oncoming car can be a bit harrowing.
Our only negative experience was with a home chef recommended by the property management. We hired her for an onsite cooking lesson. Without going into detail, in the end the dinner was fine but we wouldn't do it again.
We wholeheartedly recommend this property and would most definitely rent it again. Many thanks to Elisa and Iliana for their hospitality.
