With its stone-brick walls and original details from the 17th century conveying the authentic Tuscan feel, the recently restored and newly furnished Villa Alice is the perfect destination for your summer escape. Ideal for families with kids and teens, it will satisfy all ages, making it just perfect for family reunions for up to 12 people.
No doubt that the extensive terrace is the highlight of the property. Stretching along the front of the house, it offers plenty of space and sitting areas to fully enjoy outdoor aperitivos or meals prepaired on the Kamado grill or simply rest in front of postcard view enjoying the silence and the sound of the nature. If you are lucky, you can see deers, beautiful birds and porkupine.
The group can spread out between several outdoor areas and the indoor living rooms with fireplaces, where the traditional farmhouse aesthetic blends with modern features.
For the gourmet, a fully equipped kitchen with island opens on to a lovely, shaded terrace furnished with comfortable sofas where to enjoy a beautiful panorama, a shelter for the hottest days. Just above, a second terrace furnished with sunbeds offers a secluded corner where a couple can delight their privacy with a glass of wine taken from the wine cooler.
There is a small yet essential pool for a cool dip, ideal for the children entertain.
We doubt you will want to leave this corner of paradise, but in case you will, plenty of activities will be waiting from you. From wine tasting in one of the many surrounding cellars to a quick visit to some of the attractions in the proximity, such as the Pinocchio Park for the youngest or the lovely village of Montecarlo, renowned for a wine festival and the gourmet restaurants or visiting the beautiful beaches of Versilia with Forte dei Marmi, Viareggio and Lido di Camaiore or the charming villages in the Cinque Terre.
Villa Alice is the quintessential villa experience for those looking to live the Tuscan way.

About the area
Lucca, Italy, is a captivating city that embodies the quintessential charm of Tuscany. Enclosed by well-preserved Renaissance walls that have been transformed into a pedestrian promenade, the city invites visitors to step back in time and explore its historical treasures at a leisurely pace.
The heart of Lucca is its old town, a labyrinth of cobblestone streets, picturesque piazzas, and elegant buildings. The Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, a unique elliptical square, is a highlight, built on the ruins of an ancient Roman amphitheater. Visitors can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the piazza, which is lined with cafes and shops, perfect for sipping a cappuccino and people-watching.
Lucca's rich history is showcased in its numerous churches, the most famous being the San Michele in Foro with its stunning façade and the Lucca Cathedral (Duomo di San Martino), which houses remarkable artworks and the revered Volto Santo di Lucca, a wooden crucifix. The city's religious heritage is further celebrated during the Luminara di Santa Croce festival, where Lucca is illuminated by thousands of candles in a breathtaking display.
For those with a taste for adventure, climbing the Guinigi Tower offers a rewarding experience. The tower is notable for the ancient oak trees growing atop its roof, providing a unique vantage point over the city and the surrounding Tuscan countryside.
Music enthusiasts will find Lucca especially endearing as it is the birthplace of the famous composer Giacomo Puccini. The Puccini Museum, located in his childhood home, is a pilgrimage site for opera lovers, and the city hosts an annual summer festival celebrating his works.
Beyond its historical and cultural offerings, Lucca is also a gateway to the Tuscan landscape, with opportunities for cycling and hiking along the Serchio River or through the nearby hills. The city's culinary scene is equally enticing, featuring traditional Tuscan cuisine, fine wines, and local specialties like Buccellato, a sweet bread that is a Lucca staple.
Lucca's blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, combined with its relaxed atmosphere and friendly locals, makes it a destination that offers a truly authentic Italian experience. Whether you're seeking to immerse yourself in history, enjoy the arts, or simply indulge in the pleasures of Italian life, Lucca is a city that will capture your heart and leave you longing to return.
