Villa Elisa is an exclusive property located within the ancient walls of Lucca,
just two minutes’ walk from the main squares of town. Everything is
within walking distance! Lucca is famous for its tree-topped medieval walls.
Its streets are lined with elegant shops and charming restaurants, and an outstanding
antiques market is held on the last weekend of each month. Some of Italy's finest
villas and gardens, many of which are open to the public, are tucked into the
surrounding hills. Explore medieval hill towns, each with its own unique personality.
Hike in the Cinqueterre, visit the white marble quarries of Carrara, or relax
at a nearby thermal spa. Lucca is just 60 minutes from Florence, 30 minutes from
Pisa, and 20 minutes from the chic beaches of Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi.
