Perfect for an extended family get away.

Visited Florence, Pisa, Luca, Viraggio, and Colloddi, which were all interesting in their own different ways, but it was always nice to get back to "Top Cottage" where we could relax around the pool and admire the surrounding views. The house was extremely comfortable, well equipped with plenty of space - we didn't want to come back home! This family trip was to celebrate my 70th birthday with our 2 sons, 1 daughter-in-law, 2 grandchildren and 1 dog and we all fell in love with the place. The children particularly liked the pool and watching the "fire flies" at night - magical! Thank you so much Marie-Lou for letting us use your beautiful cottage.

Perfect

Myself, my partner and our whippet had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful property. Everything was catered for, so well stocked with everything you could possibly need and spotlessly clean. The garden is completely secure and our dog was in heaven! Cesarina is the property manager and is always available and nothing is too much trouble, not that we needed anything! The pool is beautiful, the best views from every window and you are surrounded by olive trees and the most friendly neighbours. We have already booked to go back!

My dream vacation!!

Thank you sharing your beautiful Villa Serena with us this past month! We and our friends and family had a wonderful time! We loved the villa and the pool with its stunning views and landscaping, and Cesarina and her sister, Sara, were delightful, efficient and very helpful. In addition to enjoying the Villa and pool, we took many fun day trips to Lucca, Siena, Viareggio, Pisa, Florence, Volterra, Barga and Pietrasanta and visited more than a few wineries! Thank you again for memories that will last a lifetime! Erin and Jim

The view, the pool and the heavenly house

This is an amazing place to stay - gorgeous house with lots of space and so well equipped - we had more than we needed. The hosts were very welcoming and the caretaker was always available to assist us with questions. The gardens are gorgeous only beat out by the infinity pool overlooking the sea in the distance. The only challenge is the windy road leading up to the house and you definitely need to have a car. However it was a week in heaven for 8 of us!

Hate to Leave

This is an amazing property. While the location is a bit up the hill from major roads it’s worth it for the view. The house was the best equipped house we have ever rented. Cesarina, the local manager was extremely helpful and available. All beds were comfortable and bedrooms beautiful. Kitchen extremely well equipped for the casual cook or the gourmet. We spent most of our time in the yard and by the amazing pool. Couldn’t get enough of the view. It is worth renting the little pool house as well for those long days in the water. We got out most days for easy trips to lucca, Pisa, Forte dei Marmi and a longer day in Florence. A lovely dinner in Pietrasanta (such a pretty little town) and shopped for groceries at Conad in Massarosa. The perfect holiday. Thank you for sharing your home.

Gorgeous Villa

The villa is gorgeous and has such a great view that you don't ever want to leave! This was the biggest problem during our stay. The pool is private, set apart from the house, and the view is also very dramatic. It was such a lovely and relaxed atmosphere, and close to Lucca and Pietrasanta (our fav). It's definitely a drive to get up to the house, but worth it for the view and privacy. The enormous master bedroom was a real treat. And the house is beautifully decorated with a ton of great art. You could actually walk around like in a gallery on each floor. We highly recommend and would stay again.

Fantastic stay in stunning location

We had the most fantastic stay in this gorgeous property! The views from the pool are so amazing, & sunsets simply spectacular. It was hard to leave each day. The photos don't show how well designed, decorated & comfortable all the spaces are, the Master suite (top floor) is incredibly spacious & lovely. The other bedrooms were big & great, the indoor& outdoor kitchens are both excellent comfortable spaces, bathrooms are large and updated! We had one brief electrical outage incident but it was handled immediately by the home's caretaker Cesarina (a super sweet/kind and helpful person) and the owners: Bernard and Mary-Luise-such helpful & lovely people. I have stayed in a lot of VRBO properties and this one is truly one of the the most spectacular homes/locations! Mary-Luise made reservations for us and accommodated all of our questions & requests very quickly and thoroughly. We had a special Birthday/Anniversary dinner at a nearby restaurant called La Dogana-simply wonderful!! Outdoor setting, great service & food. Highly recommend it. Everything about our stay was seamlesss and smooth and we also had great weather. Each morning, we had coffee out in the yard overlooking the lakes/sea and later, the big kids played soccer & other games on the big grassy area above the pool. The little pool house w/fridge, towels, bathroom, floats etc was a big bonus!! Really cannot recommend this property in Tuscany area enough-drivable to lots of other places: Viareggio, Forte de Marmi, Pisa-& not too far from Cinque Terre etc... Really a Top 10 Vacation spot in every way! Thanks Villa Serena!

BELLISSIMO

Mary-Luise, I was lucky enough to be one of the guests staying at Villa Serena recently. What a beautiful home! An absolutely stunning setting and indeed very serene. Early mornings in the garden watching the world wake up - Long afternoons by the pool watching the sun begin to set - Dinner time outside under the grape trellis - ALL overlooking the sea were delightful. Your home is beautifully appointed with many details that are often missing from home rentals, extensive kitchen equipment, artwork, china, linens, and candles. And the large stack of beautiful tea towels, so wonderful! We set a beautiful table every night to go with our meals. We truly loved to cook in the outdoor pizza oven which was generously stocked with nice dry wood making it easy to start the fire within. What a treat! The house keeper was there to greet us and went through every aspect of the house upon our arrival, pointing out all the amenities, even down at the pool house. There are also information manuals for everything in the house and details about the area in general. She also was so helpful when on one occasion part of our group was locked out and she showed up quickly to let us in. We look forward to our next visit. Great house, great location, great holiday!

A Beautiful Home in a Beautiful Location

Villa Serena is gorgeous! It feels welcoming and is very comfortable while at the same time beautifully appointed. The views from the house and the pool are amazing with beautiful sunsets almost every evening. Working with the owner was easy. Mary-Lou was responsive and very helpful with all our inquiries. Cesarina, our local contact, was attentive when needed. While it was too cool to swim, we sat by the pool several afternoons, enjoying the view, sipping local wines. I highly recommend staying at Villa Serena in Pieve a Elici (Massarosa).

Relaxed despite stormy weather

We stayed in the villa with friends for a week and really enjoyed it. The view was phenomenal. You can relax very well at the great infinity pool - just like “la dolce vita”. But unfortunately we weren't able to use it much due to the weather. Everything you need was available in the villa just as described. The region around Lucca or Pisa can be reached quickly by car and invites you to linger. We would come again, but probably rather in spring or summer. Thanks a lot for your hospitality MaryLou and Bernhard

Wir waren fünf Erwachsene und 2 Kinder und ein Hund. Das Haus hat alles was man braucht. Die liebevolle Ceserina hat sich um Alles gekümmert, wenn man was gebraucht hat.Die Zufahrt mit unserem Van war etwas anstrengend, aber das waren wir als geübte Toskanerurlauber gewöhnt. Wir hatten das Poolhaus noch dazugemietet. Dies dürfte ich bewohnen, Modernes sehr gut ausgestattetes Zimmer mit schönem Bad, kleiner Küche, Klimaanlage und einem TOP Bett. Auch der Pool war sehr schön groß und wurde regelmäßig gereinigt. Insgesamt 5 Sterne. Sehr empfehlenswert.
