Idyllic stay for special birthday

Phil (United Kingdom)

Villa Medea was the perfect location for our celebration! As a group of 9 of mixed ages it was a great spot. The pool was fabulous, lots of space to all be around it at the same time. The outside dining area was perfect for diners all together. Alice, the caterer recommended to us by the villa manager, could not have been more helpful and her dinners were superb!

Perfekt opplevelse i Toscana

Helge (Norway)

Den ultimate Toscana-opplevelsen! Jeg hadde invitert alle mine barn og barnebarn til en familieferie i Toscana. Vi var 12 voksne og 5 tenåringer. Huset hadde god plass til alle i luksuriøse omgivelser. Det var full rulle ihus og hage og svømmebasseng heletiden. Det velutstyrte kjøkkenet innbød til kokkelering, faktisk laget vi all mat selv på rundgang, og kunne nyte felles måltider hver kveld ved langbord under pergolaen. De fleste dro på dagsturer i området flere ganger.Det ble en uke vi aldri glemmer, alt gikk knirkefritt, og fylt av lek og moro i vakre omgivelser. Vi hadde en perfekt ferieuke!

Beautiful Spot

Andrew (-)

The villa images don’t do it justice, we were blown away by the villa when we arrived. It was clean and tidy, plenty space for all our family (20 guests, adults and children). A car is recommended as taxis in Lucca aren’t the best, but when the taxis do show up they are very helpful and will organise more taxis if needed. The gardens and outdoor areas are lovely and there are some great views, we were worried about the pylon before travelling but you don’t notice it when you’re there. The hosts were responsive and were always happy to help. There is a deposit that is to be paid on arrival which we weren’t expecting, we ran into trouble trying to sort this as the banks kept blocking our payments (We usually use cash rather than card on our holidays). We also had our wedding reception whilst we were there and the villa made for a fantastic location for it, however we were also instructed that we had to pay a 500euro fee to just host the wedding. But we would absolutely stay again.

The only suggestion I'd make is to inform people that taxi service isn't the best and that arranging transportation ahead of time is recommended. No other suggestions.

Glorious weeks at Villa Medea

Brian (United States)

We had 2 glorious weeks at Villa Medea celebrating 3 milestone birthdays, two 60th and one 75th. Beautiful charming 10 bedroom villa. The whole Villa is Beautifully decorated. Kitchen is Well equipped with 2 refrigerators. Has outdoor grill and stove by the pool. We were a big group of family and friends and everyone was comfortably situated in each bedroom.
The Villa’s location is perfect. Close to numerous towns like Lucca, Pisa and Florence to name a few.
Our Villa Host Maria Pia was an absolute gem!! She did her very best to accommodate all our requests and was very helpful to our needs.
We had a scrumptious, authentic Tuscan Birthday dinner catered by the resident Villa Chef, Alice Dami. She made sure the table settings were done perfectly and beautifully. The appetizers and dinner were both delicious. Chef Alice and her assistants were very attentive.
There was just 2 minor incidents:
The trash collection in Italy are pretty strict. We did as best we could following the rule guides in the Villa guest book.
It was a little confusing when we thought we were following it correctly but then the trash was not being picked up.
We contacted Maria Pia and she was helpful in sending someone to collect the trash.
We also had an insect situation in one of the rooms that had an outdoor patio. Because of the change of weather, when it gets cool some insects find their way into the warmth of the bedroom. We understand it’s part of nature. We contacted Maria Pia again and she was quick to have someone spray the room and gave us extra cans if needed. Overall we loved our stay at Villa Medea and highly recommend a visit.
Grazie Mille !!

Abbiamo trascorso 2 settimane gloriose a Villa Medea festeggiando 3 compleanni importanti, due del 60esimo e uno del 75esimo. Bella affascinante villa con 10 camere da letto. L'intera Villa è splendidamente decorata. La cucina è ben attrezzata con 2 frigoriferi. Dispone di grill all'aperto e fornelli a bordo piscina. Eravamo un grande gruppo di famiglia e amici e tutti erano comodamente situati in ogni camera da letto.
La posizione della Villa è perfetta. Vicino a numerose città come Lucca, Pisa e Firenze solo per citarne alcune.
La nostra Villa Host Maria Pia era un vero gioiello!! Ha fatto del suo meglio per soddisfare tutte le nostre richieste ed è stata molto disponibile per le nostre esigenze.
Abbiamo fatto una deliziosa e autentica cena di compleanno toscana organizzata dallo chef residente di Villa, Alice Dami. Si è assicurata che le impostazioni della tavola fossero fatte perfettamente e magnificamente. Sia gli antipasti che la cena erano deliziosi. Lo chef Alice e i suoi assistenti erano molto attenti.
Ci sono stati solo 2 incidenti minori:
La raccolta dei rifiuti in Italia è piuttosto severa. Abbiamo fatto del nostro meglio seguendo le guide alle regole nel libro degli ospiti della Villa.
Era un po' confuso quando pensavamo di seguirlo correttamente, ma poi la spazzatura non veniva raccolta.
Abbiamo contattato Maria Pia e lei è stata d'aiuto nell'inviare qualcuno a raccogliere la spazzatura.
Abbiamo anche avuto una situazione di insetti in una delle camere che avevano un patio esterno. A causa del cambiamento del tempo, quando fa fresco alcuni insetti si fanno strada nel tepore della camera da letto. Capiamo che fa parte della natura. Abbiamo contattato di nuovo Maria Pia e lei si è affrettata a far spruzzare qualcuno nella stanza e ci ha dato lattine extra se necessario. Nel complesso, abbiamo adorato il nostro soggiorno a Villa Medea e consigliamo vivamente una visita.
Grazie mille !!

Absolutely perfect!

Tim (United States)

We spent 2 weeks here with friends and couldn't have asked for more! The outdoor spaces were perfect for our group. From spending afternoons by the pool by the olive trees...to being able to eat dinner outside. And we enjoyed a couple of dinners inside at the dining room.
We had Alice cook dinner for us the first night as we knew we wouldn't want to cook. We enjoyed it so much we had her come the next Saturday night as well. Her food was spectacular!
We did a day trip to Florence via train. And spent several days in the walled city of Lucca.

We're trying to figure out when we can return to Villa Medea1

Beautiful Tuscan villa

Ian (United Kingdom)

My family, made up of 7 adults, one grandchild and a babysitter, spent 10 days at this beautiful Tuscan villa in July. The villa is a 10 minute drive from Lucca in the Tuscan hills. It is an hour from Florence, and a half hour from the beach, and other wonderful . day trips, including Cinque Terre, which were all great day trips that we took. The villa itself is a large, gracious and beautifully built 16th century home. The bedrooms are large with many of them ensuite. Two of the bedrooms are in a house at the far side of the property, which we did not use. The layout worked well for our group. Cristine who managed the property was a pleasure to deal with. as was Stephanie, who came every day to help clean the house and help with the garbage etc. While the villa has a beautiful view of the countryside, it backs on to a courtyard with other houses. This did not, however, detract from the countryside setting of the villa. It is beautifully decorated, with comfortable furniture, inside and outside of the house. and the bathrooms are newly renovated. The beds are comfortable with high end linen and plenty of closet space in each room. There are many super markets nearby that have fresh fish, meat, and produce, as well as a delicious bakeries and a pharmacy for all of your needs. The only disappointment, based on the description of the house, is that the kitchen has not been newly renovated. Given our disappointment, the managers of the property did purchase new kitchen gadgets, as well as a clothes dryer for the property. The kitchen is functional but not a newly upgraded kitchen with high end appliances as we had expected and the only reason we have given the villa a four star as opposed to 5 star rating. The managers did everything they could to make our stay comfortable, and were very responsive to our needs, including immediately buying a new pool umbrella to replace the broken one. I would highly recommend the villa for a large family holidaya group of friends.

Perfect in Every Way!

Jasmin (Switzerland)

The villa is a dream and absolutely recommendable. Everything is just like on the pictures and you don't want to leave the house anymore. A big thank you also to Cristina, who welcomed us and gave us countless tips. Once something happened, she always answered within seconds. Also very recommendable are Alice and Paolo, who cooked two times in our villa and spoiled us superb. All in all it was a great stay and I can highly recommend this accommodation to everyone.

Paradise in Tuscany!

Shuchi (United States)

We were here for our inaugural extended family holiday - 17 of us from all over the world. This villa was perfect. Great views and lovely set up. It had all the amenities we needed including a fairly well sized swimming pool and patios .. Absolutely loved our time here. Cristina was lovely - very clear and very prompt about everything including recommendations. Will definitely recommend this place and its proximity to Lucca city centre is a nice added plus point !

Роскошная вилла

Evgeniia (Italy)

Моя семья для отдыха предпочитает выбирать виллы класса люкс, важен интерьер, расположение, масштабы и чистота. Данная вилла отвечает всем запросам, каждая мелочь в этом доме, а замечу, именно антикварная, предаёт дому роскошь и напоминание прошлых веков! Да, возникали некие проблемы во время проживания, все вопросы решались быстро и слажено. До моря действительно ехать 20 минут, вокруг виллы большая инфраструктура. Для того, чтобы почувствовать именно Тоскану, нужно останавливаться немного вдалеке от всех оживленных мест) Рекомендую, как саму виллу, так и владельца! Спасибо за прекрасный отдых!
