Savor a quintessential Tuscan experience at Casale Mareli. Dating to the 19th century, this charming estate outside Lucca has been fully restored to a high standard of modern luxury—yet still retains its historic charm. Reserve this vacation rental as a base to explore the area, or simply to enjoy its peaceful setting on a farm that produces olive oil and honey.

Take in the views of the countryside and bask in a breeze scented by wildflowers from outdoor living areas that feature a pool, barbecue and al-fresco dining table. After a day of sightseeing, treat yourself to a pampering session in the indoor sauna, steam bath and hot tub, or unwind with high-tech help from the TV or Wi-Fi.

Warm, welcoming interiors encourage the whole group to gather and enjoy each other’s company. Spend a quiet moment reading in the sunroom, cozy up to the fireplace in the living room or relive the day’s adventures around the expansive table in the dining room. The kitchen is impressively equipped with a steam convection oven, blast chiller, other appliances and a breakfast table.

The five bedrooms at Casale Mareli can accommodate up to ten friends or family members. Each bedroom has a queen bed and private en-suite bathroom, making the villa a wonderful alternative to a hotel for a holiday in Tuscany, and enchanting details like antique furnishings, brick floors and beamed ceilings.

Whether you’re on a family trip, a getaway with friends or even your honeymoon, there’s plenty to delight around Casale Mareli. The villa is only a 10-minute drive from the city of Lucca, 20 minutes from Pisa and 35 minutes from the beach resort of Forte dei Marmi. If you’ll be staying during the summer, don’t miss the Festival Puccini in nearby Torre del Lago; what better place to see and hear this composer’s iconic operas than his hometown.
