The structure, already present in the 17th century maps drawn up by the Medici family, has recently been restored and furnished to provide special emotions to all those who stay here. The search for materials of Tuscan tradition, such as the terracotta of Impruneta, ceilings with beams, joists and tiles in terracotta and the majolica of Montelupo, which, combined with hues of warm colours, will beguile you with the typical atmosphere of Tuscany. The attentive work of the architect has made it possible to combine the historicity of the building with the comfort of the elegant tourist structure where, indoors or outdoors in the luxuriant garden, guests will find the maximum comfort for an unforgettable holiday. The ground floor of the two-storey villa is composed of the living areas together with a very well-equipped kitchen, strictly in Tuscan style.

In addition to the villa is the unique lawned garden where you can stroll recapturing magical sensations, multicoloured floral essences, herbs with their unique scents, tall poplars and maritime pines which, with their wide foliage, will shade your relaxing days. The owners, very attentive to the rest and entertainment of those staying at Villa Elisa, have included in the park a swimming pool with large equipped solarium, a regular-size tennis court, a well-equipped play area for children, ping-pong, table football and a large living area with elegant armchairs in the shade of centuries-old pine trees. Just a few minutes away from this special, quiet location are the famous spas of Montecatini Terme or Monsummano Terme with the renowned Grotta Giusti.

TO DO

Location and distances


The property lies in a green area just outside the town of Montecatini Terme, renowned for its purifying waters, between the provinces of Florence, Pisa, Lucca and Pistoia. It is also close to the famous protected wildlife reserve of Padule di Fucecchio, an extensive trail network in a large marshy area, characterised by hydrogeological and landscape resources of particular interest and by a great wealth of native flora and fauna, https://www.facebook.com/paduledifucecchio/. The villa is located between the towns of Montecatini Terme and Lucca, between the eastern end of the Piana di Lucca and the Piana della Val di Nievole. Lucca, with its town walls, has been known since Roman times and Montecatini Terme since ancient times for its famous baths; both are important tourist towns, where you can stroll amongst the beautiful shops that characterise the town centres. Within easy reach of the property are towns such as Pescia (the town of flowers), Collodi (the town of Pinocchio), Massa and Cozzile (medieval villages), Montecarlo (renowned for its red wine) and Monsummano Terme (with its thermal pools in a cave), rendering the area very interesting and alluring. Thanks to the Altopascio railway station or the motorway, via the Chiesina Uzzanese exit, important towns like Pisa or other cultural towns such as Lucca, Florence, Siena, Vinci (the birthplace of Leonardo) and San Gimignano can be quickly reached, as well as the “in” beaches of Versilia, like Forte dei Marmi, with their magical nightlife and the marble quarries of Carrara and Pietrasanta, towns of art and marble.

No, la villa è bellissima, così come il suo parco, piscina e campo da tennis. Ci si sente spersi nel verde e nella natura ma in realtà si è a due passi da svariati locali e a 10 minuti dall'autostrada, che per chi come noi voleva visitare le bellissime città dell'alta Toscana è il massimo della comodità. Altra nota positiva è sicuramente la disponibilità e gentilezza della proprietaria Rachele, sempre pronta a dar buoni consigli e a far di tutto per accontentare i clienti.

Based on your referral, we hired Chef Nicole Taddei to cook two meals for us during our stay. She prepared some delicious dishes, and was truly a delight to work with. Nicole’s presentation and service were amazing ! She was very professional and personable throughout the evening, and it was obvious that she is very passionate about her culinary skills.
We value your feedback to improve the services provided by Emma Villas.
Our hostess at Villa Elisa, Rachele Caponi, was such a lovely person, who was attentive to any/all concerns & questions we had, from our check in to our check out !! She even led the pony ride for our three grandkids !! It was very evident she takes pride in sharing her family’s villa !
