It exceeded our expectations!

Our stay in Lucca was perfect thanks to the wonderful week in this apartment. It exceeded our expectations and I would not hesitate to recommend this charming spot to all my friends. The apartment is lovely, the location is great and the apartment is quiet. Thank everyone for all that you did to make our stay a memorable one. I look forward to staying there again.

Great location. Fabulous apartment!

Well appointed apartment. 2 kitchens. A spacious bathroom in every bedroom. Lots of keys for security. Took us a day to get used to what key for elevator, door, gate, but made us feel secure.

Excellent apartment wonderful place & time

Wonderful apartment huge, exquisite decoration and yet homely for our party of ten (five couples). Thoroughly recommend it, location excellent within city walls with many superb restaurants & attractions within an easy stroll. Absolutely no down sides . Only thing….we only had four sets of keys for five couples needed comms between us to ensure access if we weren’t all together. But honestly lovely holiday in superb apartment- great support and info, appreciated!

Perfect in every point

This place in nothing short of amazing! It was perfect for our multi-generational group of 12. It was huge! Spaced out so nicely that we all had our own nook if needed. Everything you need is provided. The decor is fabulous and the location is excellent-hop, skip and jump from the center. If we needed anything, they were answering msgs immediately. This is a 5 star place. We couldn't have been happier! Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful villa!

Beautiful apartment

The apartment was well-managed and extremely clean. We did have a problem with the shower draining poorly but that was quickly taken care of. Elizabeth was a prompt and helpful host. The keys were sometimes difficult to work in the locks but I guess that is part of the charm of an older building and old locks.

Wonderful stay at the Medieval Penthouse

The apartment was clean, air conditioned and located close to everything. Each room had its own bathroom. The beds were comfortable. The kitchens were equipped with all basic needs. Washer and dryer worked well although they could not be used concurrently. The initial arranged meeting time was delayed. The multiple keys were cumbersome. One of the bathroom showers had only hot water. Air conditioner in one of the rooms was weak.

Top Notch!

The apartment was beautiful and well equipped. They made the hot tub into a cold tub because it was so hot out and it felt great after a day of walking. The only problem was the AC broke on half of the house the day we got there. They notified me and offered a full refund if we wanted to cancel, but we were a family of 9 coming from California that day so we stuck with it. It wasn't great for 5 of the 9 people bc they couldn't sleep, it was so hot. They tried to fix it when we were there and were very apologetic. Elizabeth the house manager was awesome. She was so helpful, available, and professional. I will recommend Lucca Apartments to everyone I know that's taking a trip to Italy.

5 Star all the way!

The apartment was perfect for our family… 5 bedrooms and each with en-suite bath rooms. It was really two apartment…one a three bedroom and one a two bedroom. The three bedroom had a nice size kitchen, large living room and a whirlpool/spa! The two bedroom was more than adequate with a much smaller kitchen but a very large dining room and nice size living room. The apartment was on what we would call the 3rd floor but there was an elevator we used for luggage. Maybe the only complaint about the building was at night the stairs were rather dark. You could turn on lights but it was still pretty dark. There really isn’t a bad location in Lucca since it is so small but this place was in an excellent section of the city. We paid for parking but you could easily go outside the walls and find free parking and not that much farther away. This is very nitpicking but I think at reception you could spend a bit more time explaining the various items like a/c, tv, washer/dryer/ dishwasher, etc. European appliances are not the same as US. Again, not a big deal and we got along just fine. I still give you a 5 star rating with no reservation.

Und wieder könnten wir sechs Sterne ****** vergeben für eine tolle, helle und moderne Ferienwohnung mit einem super Blick aufs Meer. Die Wohnung ist klimatisiert. Am Abend sitzt man mit einem Glas Wein auf dem Balkon mit Blick aufs Meer, toll. Die Vermieter sind wie Familie und haben uns " gepampert " und uns ein rundum Wohlfühlpaket geboten. Das Meer ist nicht sehr tief, geht max. bis zum Oberkörper und der Strand ist schön. Wir waren nun zum zweiten Mal dort und sind 2026 wieder da. Vielen Dank an Miriam, Konstantin und Michael.

Medieval penthouse

I thought it as very beautiful and accommodated our family’s needs very well. Perhaps a bigger coffee pot. There were 7 of us and only two Italian coffee makers for 2 cups and 4 cups. Other than that tutto bene!

We had a wonderful time staying in your five bedroom apartment! I have a couple comments: Imwas not notified about the renovation going on! When we drove up, it was quite scary! Once inside everything was great. I was told we had access to washer and dryer, which we did, but; very, very limited, which should be communicated to the party renting. Very small appliances and we could only use one appliance at a time. Just needs to be communicated on the limited amount you are able to use it. One of my friends fixed the WiFi! The spa was not heating, but they sent a repair man a couple days later. All in all, we enjoyed staying there very much! Great location! Elizabeth was nice to work with!

Our family enjoyed 3 nights at this fabulous apartment in the heart of Lucca. There was plenty of room for 5 adults and 5 children to spread out and enjoy all of the amentities. The apartment was just a short walk to many restaurants and Via Falungo - the main shopping area. Elizabeth was extremely helpful when checking us in and gave us many tips to navigating Lucca. Lucca is our family's favorite spot in Italy and this apartment couldn't have been more perfect! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in such a beautiful place!

The penthouse apartment was amazing

The penthouse apartment was amazing, beautifully decorated and furnished. Our stay was extremely comfortable and the agent kept in touch to make sure everything was going smoothly. Lucca is a beautiful unspoilt city, with great transport links for getting about. We did without a car for the week and didn’t miss it at all. Would definitely recommend!

Excellent apartment looked just like the pictures and the amenities were great, we enjoyed our stay

Liked the apartment, very well decorated and had everything you needed. The location was excellent, close to shopa and restaurants and about 15mins walk to the train station. Couldn't have asked for a better stay. Keep up the good work, can't think of any changes or improvements.

A wonderful place

Our family of 9--grandparents, children, grandchildren--spent a week here and loved the apartment with its 5 bedrooms/5 full baths and two salon areas and two kitchens. The street is a quiet one but very close to any attraction. Our hosts were great and very prompt in answering our texts/calls/emails. The apartment, named "The Medieval Penthouse" was immaculately clean and beautifully appointed with artwork, frescoes, and murals. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you again kind Chiarra and Elizabeth!
