Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Lucca

Cosimo and his mother Francesca were so lovely to deal with. There were a lot of personal touches which really made the stay, such as homemade biscotti, homemade jam and bicycles that we could use. They were more than helpful with their recommendations for places to eat and the apartment itself was beautiful. The only thing we weren’t keen on was walking back at night. There were a lot of men loitering outside the nearby shops. But other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Alessandro’s place is the real deal—a true penthouse! In the U.S., “penthouse” sometimes just means top floor, but here it means an apartment with two massive sliding glass doors that open onto a spacious private terrace. We spent afternoons soaking up the sun and evenings relaxing outside after dinner as Florence cooled down—it was perfect. The location is also super convenient, right next to a tram stop that's only three stops from the city center. We had a wonderful time in Florence and would absolutely stay here again!

excellent experience, the apartment was very clean. Parking was also easy to find in the area despite it being the night before a masked class. Giovanna was very friendly and kind and asked several times if we needed anything.

This beautiful apartment was easy to find, in the middle of the old town, everything within walking distance. Giulia always responded quickly and attentively and helped. We felt very comfortable!

Great location and friendly hosts!

We love staying at Barbara's place. Its beautiful. Magic happens here. We will come back soon.

We had to meet the host on site for check-in. The time arrangement was totally uncomplicated. After a short briefing, we immediately felt comfortable. The view from the balcony of San Gimignano was beautiful. The apartment is perfectly adequate and beautifully furnished. The hostess arranged a parking ticket for us, so we parked much cheaper. We would stay there again at any time.

We loved our stay in Lerici! Guiliana was very kind to us and the apartment was perfect!

We felt comfortable in the historic house and the extensive olive grove all around. You have the property completely to yourself and can enjoy peace and nature accordingly. The location is perfect. You can quickly reach the towns of Camaiore, Pietrasante and Viareggio by car. Gianluca provided us with valuable tips and hints for excursions and local specialties in a humorous and warm way.

Once over the train station bridge and you are in the old town of Lucca, with all its beauties, its flair, but also with its tourist character. Then you can look forward to the tranquility and seclusion of the accommodation. Another advantage is the parking if you arrive by car. The place is charming and spacious for two people. The high ceilings and room layout are really so well done that you can feel right at home. The bed was comfortable and a small study is also provided. Theoretically, you can even sit outside, but you prefer to do that in Lucca in one of the beautiful places. Communication with the landlords was always very pleasant and fast. You can definitely trust the restaurant tip from the Da Vasco handbook. We would book here again immediately for our next visit to Lucca. Lucca is always worth a trip.

Beautiful accommodation! We really liked how the interior and exterior are furnished. I particularly liked the garden. Many evocative corners to discover, with statues hidden in the greenery and small tables. Ideal location to spend a weekend in the countryside relaxing away from the city.

Hands down our favorite part of our two weeks in Italy! Casa Al Poggio was our Tuscan home away from home. We went and did all the things… Florence, Cinque Terre, San Gimignano, Montepulciano, etc. But coming “home” to this place was the best. So peaceful and picturesque looking across the valley at the Badia Di Passignano. We cooked many meals in the well stocked kitchen and my husband loved the rustic BBQ. Fresh herbs in the garden and the smell of jasmine blooming on the patio. Book yourself extra time here…you won’t want to leave! Emanuele & Tamara are the kindest people. Take them up on all of their restaurant recommendations. Everyone one was a hit! We can’t wait to go back.

Friendly host, gave us useful tips. He provided us with fresh fruit on our arrival, which was very welcome. Small apartment but with everything you need for two people.

Two days of relaxation and peace. Beautiful place. House equipped with everything. Small but at the same time, spacious apartment. The bed is very comfortable. Beautiful area for walks. Obviously, you need a car to get to the sea. The only flaw, if you have a large car, is that you can't get directly in front of the house because the road is narrow. But this was communicated in advance. We had no problem. Thank you very much Maria Victoria for everything. We will definitely be back. Greetings also to Shaggy, the house dog. Very nice.😍

Very nice and spacious place. However, like everywhere in Italy, in spring, a bit damp and cold due to high humidity. Also, don't leave any food or sugar outside - ants will be all over at once :)

Gloria's home was delightful! With a picturesque hill town outside the bedroom window, well-maintained gardens amongst the olive trees, and a delicious restaurant, this was a peaceful location for a vacation. Gloria was quick to communicate when we had questions and provided a flexible check-in/out when our travel plans changed. It was a great place to spend a few nights.

A wonderful place to stay - unique artwork, spotless, excellent AC in each room, great and friendly communication, and close to the train station for an enjoyable ride to Florence! Would highly recommend!

Room it's just like the pictures, checkin was really good, Lorenzo send all the details in advance. if you arrive to Firenze Santa María Novella you have to walk arround 15 minutes to the appartment. Quiet zone perfect to rest.

Fatmira’s place is wonderful. It is very spacious, the ceilings are 4 metres high, very nice living room and modern kitchen. The bedroom is big with a lot of storage and the apartment has a nice, squeaky clean bathroom. The condo is situated in a gated community, it’s very safe and, of course, has a private parking. It’s also very accessible to the centre of the city, you can easily walk from the apartment to there. Fatmira was incredibly helpful and an enjoyable host. She answered questions whenever needed. I strongly recommend this place.

Great place, convenient to walk to city center and also to the train station. Apartment is spacious and clean

Anna was a fantastic host, who treated us with the upmost respect and kindness. While her place is a bit difficult to find at first, once you're there, you're in one of the most beautiful scenes we've seen during our time in Italy. Also, it was close enough that we were still early able to travel into Florence each day we were there. Anna was so nice in providing us with breakfast each morning, which included apricot jam from her fruit trees and homemade bread. We would recommend this spot for anyone looking for a quiet place to stay outside of the busy city.

Lovely stay in Tuscany! Patrizia had started a warming fire going for us in the fireplace upon arrival, as the weather was chilly and rainy. The house was very cozy, artistically decorated, and well appointed -- it made us feel very much at home away from home. Gorgeous views of Tuscany from the bedroom windows, and a well cared for garden which had lemons, rosemary, basil and many flowering plants. Patrizia was the absolute best hostess and provided for all our needs during our stay. There was plenty of room for everybody in the house, and there was even a lovely little kitchen which was fully stocked (salt, pepper, spices, coffee, milk, and more!). Note there is not an oven, but we were able to cook breakfast every day, and even a few dinner meals for our small group in the mini kitchen (there is a mini fridge which fit a lot of perishable food for its size!, and a small induction stove top). Thank you for the perfect stay!

I had a lovely stay at Diana’s place in Florence for a month. The location was perfect, the flat lovely, and she was a brilliant host.

We had a fantastic stay at Elisabetta and Lorenzo’s place! It’s such a great location, on a lively piazza, but away from the chaos of the direct center. You’ll find everything you need close by and more. It’s an easy walk to most places you’d want to go. The house is clean, well stocked and feels quickly like home. When I did message the hosts, they were very quick to reply and helpful. The daily markets are great and there are so many delicious spots to eat close by. While people can hang in the piazza late into the night, the double windows are very helpful, better than expected. If you’re extra sensitive, have your earbuds or plugs nearby, but don’t let it deter you from choosing this place. Thank you for hosting us! We’d choosing this place again anytime when visiting Firenze.
