My siblings and spouse (12 total) spent a week at Villa Belvedere and had a fabulous time. The hosts were great and helped us with everything we needed. They were extremely responsive to our communication from beginning to end.

The Villa was exactly as indicated in advert. The managers provided lots off help, before and during our stay. We loved everything about our holiday from the beautiful villa with fantastic views, to the location and what it has to offer.

It was a wonderful stay and the hosts were great

Wow what a beautiful house set in amazing gardens. Lovely swimming pool. Games for children to play. Lots of seating areas in the sun and in shade. Fabulous place for big family holiday. Great pool was fenced off with lockable gate which made us all feel happier with young children in our group.

Our 50 night stay at Villa Belvedere met all our fantasies of being in Italy, Tuscany and Lucca. The Villa was so livable and the environs surrounding are a landscape painting. Lucca was the perfect city and so very close. Anything needed was close; restaurants, groceries, bakeries etc. All the amenities listed made the stay comfortable and all the pictures give a true look to the beauty of the property including the extensive garden with an olive grove, refreshing swimming pool, views, forest and outside dining. Villa Belvedere's hosts were most gracious, always available, helpful and just lovely people. They gave us great information on all queries plus ideas of the areas events. It was a pleasure and honor to stay in their enchanted home. Grazie per la memoria! I would return in a heartbeat! Mary

Mother and her two daughters were very attentive hosts. I see no reason to repeat all the good things mentioned in their listing. This was a perfect home to live in and entertain friends for 7 weeks. I found it a perfect place to relax when guests were off running around. Ristorante Lombardo was very close and a favorite of mine. When we left, I felt like I was leaving new friends (the daughters) behind that I now miss. I was a great time out for me.

The villa was beautiful and exactly as described. Large property with large rooms enabling a family of ten (8 adults-2 children) to live together without feeling on top of one another. Would definitely recommend to others

If you want a gorgeous, comfortable, clean and magical villa to stay at in the heart of Tuscany, Villa Belvedere is the place to book. Everything about this spot was perfect. It accommodated my family of 13 with loads of space, the rooms were enormous and plenty of bathrooms. It was spotlessly clean inside and out. Quiet, private with gorgeous gardens and the most refreshing pool in the hot August sun, especially a treat at night! The hosts were absolutely wonderful, Barbara and Alessia were incredibly accommodating, and even when we could not find a taxi from the train station, Alessia came herself to pick us up (which is not part of the package!) Easy access to all of the other places in Tuscany and a complete dream vacation villa, you feel home at once and will always daydream of this place. I highly recommend staying here if you want a true Tuscan villa experience. Thank you!!!

We were a group of 12 ranging in age from under 2 to almost 70. We all had the time of our lives. The villa is magnificent with its breathtaking views but in walking distance to a very well equipped store & a wonderful restaurant at the base of the hill. Our trip centered on many kid driven activities: bike riding on the top of the wall, a horse drawn carriage tour of lucca, swimming in via Reggio, pony rides, and hours of bliss at home in the pool. The house is perfect for large family groups. We enjoyed eating outside, hide & seek games, & table tennis on the lovely grounds. The hosts were just wonderful. They are most welcoming & clearly cherish the villa they so graciously share with lucky guests!

We were happy in Tuscany in this amazing house. Barbara, Alessia were helpful and the property exceeded our expectations. House is large, pool is clean and the view is inspiring

April 1, 2022-April 30, 2022 and April 30, 2022-May 14, 2022 Just returned from our six weeks stay at Villa Belvedere. It was a magical time that we shared with family and friends. Over the course of the six weeks we welcomed 25 others to share this experience with us. From the moment we entered the property I felt like WOW "is this real?" The property is truly stunning and the Villa was amazing. There were times when there were 13 of us at the house, but even when it was just me and my husband it was homey and that's strange to say about a place that's over 5,000 sq. ft. Our children, grandchildren, other family and friends that came were very adventurous, here are some of the places they visited; Venice, Florence, San Gimignano. Siena, Cinque Terra, Bologna, Parma, Moderna, Volterra, Montecatini, Viareggio. Some were day trips and some overnight. Of coarse we went into Lucca many times and had wonderful meals, the Florentine Steak is fantastic. We also cooked at the Villa and that was a group effort with great food, many laughs and so many wonderful memories. I just want to express how much we loved staying on this Beautiful Property and how gracious the Italian people were to all of us. Fiorella and her daughters Alessia and Barbara are amazing and we cannot thank them enough for their kindness I will not forget them. If you are lucky enough to stay here enjoy the view from the upstairs kitchen window! Thank you Fiorella, Alessia and Barbara for making this dream vacation possible.

Villa Belvedere was by far the most beautiful property we have ever rented. Every room was so spacious. We were a party of 6 and had so much room to afford each of us the privacy we required. Each bedroom has it's own personality and each were giant. Same with the bathrooms. Both kitchens were huge. We cooked only in the main one on the ground level. It had all the pans / appliances we needed. We cooked a fair amount and loved dining either is the great room or outside. Speaking of the outside the grounds were stunning. 3 months prior to our trip I had my knee replaced. I loved doing my exercises outside. I different place each day. Perfect gardens for yoga as well. After a day of sight seeing it was wonderful to come home to the pool. This was the first time that we did not want to come home from a vacation. I did not want to leave this Villa. It was close to 2 restaurants and an easy 10 minute drive to Lucca. We also did many day trips as the location is close to many other places to discover. I cannot recommend this property enough for a family or group of friends that want a gracious place to stay with a wonderful hostess, Fiorella who made many excellent recommendations and answered many questions.

We had two wonderful weeks at the Villa Belvedere. The stately house and the huge garden were impressive. We also liked the pool and georgeous facilities like table tennis and boccia. The spacious rooms were perfectly suited for three families (12 persons) and we still like each other ;-) Most of the windows were equipped with flyscreens, so we were able to leave the windows open at night. Sometimes the noise from the motorway was recognizable but did not disturb us. Two fully equipped kitchens with big fridges were very comfortable and we loved the possibility of eating inside and outside all together. There was also a brand new Weber charcoal grill. Due to the close grocery store (alimentari) we were able to have daily breakfast with fresh bread and vegetables. All in all the whole facility is in a very good condition and very clean. Our warm host Alessia was very friendly and helpful. Thank you very much for the great time in Tuscany. We will definitely come back to this manor house.

It was so nice after months of lockdown to escape to this villa for a week. It was lovely and lots of room for the 13 of us who stayed. Location was fantastic ,Lucca 15 mins drive away was amazing and the owners were very very attentive to all our needs. They made the check in process very easy, and quickly fixed an issue we had with plumbing. We also used the catering service for an evening and it was fantastic. Thoroughly recommmend.

The villa and the grounds were amazing, we had everything we needed, it is so picturesques and the owners are lovely and very helpful. 12 of us stayed here and we had plenty of room, never felt like we were on top of it. We made full use of the pool and with little children with us and we were thankful there was a fence around it. The beautiful city of Lucca is about 15 mins away by car. A week wasn't enough.....

Eleven of us spent 7 days in this beautiful villa. It was a spacious and elegant place to stay. The owners went out of their way to answer and deal with any of our issues. We had 4 days of 97 degree weather, but the house stayed cool enough. We loved having the pool. The only issue was the internet connection was a bit spotty and frustrating. We were close to Lucca and we fell in love with that city and will return again for a longer stay.

We did an extensive search for a place to stay in Tuscany for a trip including extended family. We decided on Villa Belvedere and everyone loved it. It is beautiful! The property is large with a beautiful outdoor space. We had 10 adults plus kids and we all felt like we all had space. The pool is lovely and they have added a fence around the pool area for safety. The owners were wonderful to work with. They had a very fast response time on all of our correspondence and were helpful in answering any questions I had. One night we had a problem with the kitchen and they arrived quickly to take care of it.It met all of our expectations and more. We would love to stay there again and would recommend it to anyone.

This Villa is absolutely fantastic. We were 8 adults and 2, 2year olds. Lots of Space, privacy and beautiful area. The Villa is accessed by a very secure gate system. The grounds are terrific and set with every convenience to make your stay wonderful. The hosts could not have been more accommodating, with directions to the Villa, suggestions on things to do, where to eat and shop for groceries etc. Very responsive. They provided a recommendation for a Chef/catering company (Cooking in Toscana), which was familiar with the Villa and provided a wonderful dinner experience one night. There is now a fence around the pool which does not show on their photos, but is great since we had two young children with us for safety. Walk around the entire Villa to discover things (we didn't see the clothes line initially and it would have been nice to hang our wash earlier as we were there for 10 days with 10 people), bocce ball court etc. A real plus were the screens on almost all windows, and terrific water pressure which can be a challenge in Italy. With all of us, we never had trouble with enough hot water to shower. If you ever want your own "Under the Tuscan Sun" experience, this is it! Very luxurious. Access to other areas for day trips is great. Some of us visited Pisa, Florence, Venice (one couple went for an overnight) and Cinque Terra in day trips. Also visited Lucca many times, and a wonderful nearby garden as well as a Pinocchio park. So much to do in the area, but could rest at the Villa as well. We did not rent the Chapel or the lower area, but the Hosts graciously showed us the Chapel when we checked in. Can't recommend it enough. Wish we could live there.

We had a wonderful week staying at this impressive villa. We were a family party of 9 and we certainly had plenty of room! The owners greeted us and were very accommodating -assisting us in any way that they could. We very much enjoyed the pool (though a little chilly in early May!) and had some wonderful outings in the area.
