Wat een heerlijke plek in de heuvels met uitzicht op Pisa! Absoluut een aanrader. Fijn huis, heerlijk zwembad, dichtbij Pisa, Lucca en het strand.

Vi var 7 piger afsted som varmt vil anbefale Luisa og Colins bolig!! Parret var søde, imødekommende, gav gode råd til alt hvad vi spurgte om angående det lokale, Pisa, Lucca mm. Der var hvad vi behøvede i boligen, vi fik prøvet pizzaovn med gode instrukser fra værten, brugt poolen en masse, som var lige efter vores smag med fuld sol hele dagen. Køreturen op til boligen er lige en tilvænning og hvis man ankommer i bil vil jeg blot anbefale at ankomme i dagslys da det er lige til den skræmmende side at køre bakken for første gang i mørke, dog var Colin der til at tage imod og hjalp gerne! Efter et par gange har man vænnet sig til det, så man skal ikke lade det skræmme en væk – til info lejede vi to små biler.

Igen, varm anbefaling. Smukt og autentisk, smukkeste udsigt til dato og sjovt at bruge pizzaovn

Our family enjoyed staying at Luisa’s place. Luisa was very accommodating and responsive, our kids loved the pool on some hot June days and the wood fired pizza oven was a hit as well. Would recommend staying here!

Geweldig verblijf gehad! Super mooie plek duidelijk beschreven hoe je er moet komen. En een prachtig uitzicht vanaf hrt terras en zwembad. Aanrader! Je bent ook overal zo (lucca/pisa)

Jente ( May 2026 )Holland

We hebben ontzettend genoten van de prachtige plek, de rust, de vogelgeluiden in de ochtend, de heerlijk geurende jasmijn, het uitzicht, het gezellige buitenterrein, het zwembad met de ligstoelen.

Luisa en Colin zijn zeer hartelijk en gastvrij. Ze lieten ons erg vrij en waren snel beschikbaar voor vragen.

Erg leuk dat we de pizza-oven en de barbecue konden gebruiken, onze oudste zoon heeft het hiermee erg naar z’n zin gehad.

De slaapkamers zijn ruim en groot, met openslaande deuren en balkons.

La Lucertola ist ein kleines Paradies, wunderschön gelegen, mit Blick auf und über Pisa. Die Ferienwohnung und das ganze Gelände waren sehr geschmackvoll angelegt und eingerichtet. Vielen Dank – wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt mit der ganzen Familie und würden uns sehr freuen, nochmal wiederkehren zu können!

Luisa and Colin were exceptionally welcoming and accommodating. They kindly allowed us to check in early and were always available for any questions or requests prior to our arrival. They were attentive and open to all of our needs.

The house itself was beautiful, with a stunning view and a pristine pool. Everything was absolutely perfect, and we truly felt at home throughout our stay.

I would highly recommend this estate to anyone traveling with children — they are sure to have a wonderful time here.

We had the best time at Luisa and Colin’s villa. The views from the villa are breathtaking and like nothing we had experienced before.

The accommodation was clean and had everything we needed during our stay.

We didn’t have a car during this stay, but it didn’t hold us back.

You need to be organised regarding travel, but there is a bus stop at the end of the road and taxis which were very accommodating.

Luisa is spectacular at communication and even did the first initial shop for us which was so lovely.

We had an incredible time at Luisa and Colin’s villa. They greeted us like family – it felt like we were staying with an aunt and uncle, in the best way possible. The terrain is beautiful and well cared for and the house is quintessentially Tuscan. We couldn’t have asked for more!

As a family of 4, we had a perfect stay at La Lucertola. Luisa and Colin were friendly, attentive and helpful from the minute we arrived to when we left. They were available on the phone throughout, if needed.

The music studio was an incredible addition – we felt very lucky to have access to it throughout our stay. The accommodation is located up a narrow track, but this meant we had access to stunning views and wildlife all around.

Although the pool was cold, due to the time of year we visited, it didn’t stop us using it a couple of times. The pool is perfectly located – overlooking Pisa. There was plenty of seating around the pool and, although other families were staying in the house next door, it didn’t once feel like we couldn’t use any of the facilities.

Other great facilities worth mentioning – the pizza oven is such an experience – to make pizzas overlooking the tower of Pisa, in Italy, was incredible. We also had all the cleaning items and linen we needed too.

Grazie.

An amazing spot  

November 2024

This is truly an amazing spot. You can’t ask for a better view every morning you get up.
And when you are having lunch or dinner at the terrace.

The house has plenty of space and all the things you need. The supermarket is within a short driving distance.
Don’t forget to use the wood fired pizza oven.

Luisa and Colin are fantastic hosts. And you can always ask for advice on where to go.
Luisa also helped us out with some basic shopping. So, we had something to start with since we were arriving late.

We loved the place and will definitely recommend this place and will book it with yourself again.

Luisa and Colin are very friendly and helpful. Always responsive and very informative. We were in good hands from the start.

The place has a beautiful view and a lovely location – close to both the charming city of Lucca and the famous leaning tower of Pisa.

We enjoyed our stay with two small babies and the place is definitely recommendable for families looking for an extraordinary location for their next holiday in Tuscany.

We highly recommend this place!

Amazing place

September 2023

This place is great! The views are amazing, and the pool is lovely. House itself is very clean and tidy and has all necessities needed. Everything went very smoothly from the check-in to leaving. Colin and Luisa were If you want to be in an amazing place do not miss to stay at Luisa’s place “La Lucertola” The route is a bit challenging to drive but you get used to it the second time. The place is peaceful, perfect to disconnect, get in contact with nature, enjoy wonderful views of Toscany and Pisa and most importantly get great memories while swimming in the pool, having a relaxing meal in the garden, doing bbq or cooking pizza with the family! The house is big, comfortable and clean. We were traveling with a baby and we had all the need to feel at home! Thank you Luisa and Colin!

Luisa is a host like no other

Luisa is a host like no other. She quickly becomes a friend you’re happy about when she passes your window in the morning. You can ask her everything and that’s the same for Collin, her partner. You will definitely enjoy your stay here and many more things as the view. Don’t hesitate to book here, it’s worth it!

It really exceeded our expectations

September 2022

My friends and I based ourselves here for a weekend to travel around Tuscany and it really exceeded our expectations. Stunning views of the area, a great pool and outdoor wood fire pizza oven. Luisa was an amazing host who really goes out of her way for you. Highly recommended!

Great place and hospitality from Luisa

October 2022

Great place and hospitality from Luisa. We enjoyed our weekend getaway! She was quick to respond to our questions and meet our needs. It was kid friendly, the pool was nice, and making pizzas in the oven was fun! The place is comforting with amazing views! Be aware it’s not direct or easy access to the lovely home, however it’s well worth it.

The house offers a fantastic view over Pisa to the sea

October 2022

Luisa and Colin were excellent and friendly hosts. The house offers a fantastic view over Pisa to the sea. The house is very spacious and we had enough room with 5 people. We enjoyed the daily breakfast on the terrace in the sunshine. We only used the pool once. In October it would be perfect if the pool was heated.
The driveway to the house is steep and winding. We were grateful that we could use the rental car for this. But after a few days we also got used to the adventurous way up.
Hope to see you again. Thanks for everything!

La Lucertola is a piece of heaven in Tuscany!

August 2022

A very beautiful and clean house, equipped with everything you need.
The view is simply indescribably beautiful. Luisa and Colin are such lovely hosts.
Cities like Pisa, Lucca or Florence are easy to reach and the sea is not far away. We will definitely come back.

The location is great, its near Pisa and Lucca

July 2022

Luisa and Colin are very kind and welcoming hosts. The location is great, its near Pisa and Lucca and little less than 1.5 hours to Firenze. The drive up to the house is a bit of a challenge but we managed it and it becomes easier with each attempt. Besides, the view from your porch or from the pool over the region is worth all the trouble.

The house is well equipped and when properly ventilated at night, together with the provided fans, I had fine nights of sleep. There is a large pool, you have your own porch and everything is very well maintained. There are two places next to each other and you share the pool but our neighbours were very nice and we communicated well with them. It is possible to keep your privacy if you want through good communication.

Luisa is very kind and when passing by always stops to have a chat. I really enjoyed talking to her and she knows the region very well and is able to provide many in and outs.

I would strongly recommend staying with Luisa, me and my friends had an amazing time. Thanks again Luisa!

We really liked the space and how it was decorated

July 2022

We really enjoyed our stay at Luisa! She and Colin have done a great job making it homely AND special! We really liked the space and how it was decorated. The fresh pears, tomatoes, basil, and rosemary were a nice bonus. The wood-fired pizza oven was really great and the pool with a shower from the olive tree – wow – fantastic! Next to that everything was spotlessly clean and it was very handy that detergent and the like were available. A lovely place And we will certainly recommend it to friends !
