Perched high in the breathtaking Lucchese hills, Villa Maionchi is a magnificent 15th-century estate where preserved renaissance heritage meets refined contemporary living.
From its original hand-painted wall frescoes and soaring timber-beamed ceilings to its forest-green velvet furnishings and crystal chandeliers, the property offers an elevated, grand atmosphere—majestic, serene, and deeply historic.
Indoors, the main floor centers around a grand dining hall painted with original frescoes that comfortably seats 22 guests for Tuscan, wine-paired dinners. This space flows into a bright living room set under music-inspired pink frescoes. The main-floor kitchen is built for private chef dinners and sommelier-led wine-pairing meals, while the lower-level kitchen makes serving poolside lunches and garden aperitivos completely seamless.
On the lower garden level, a second fully equipped kitchen opens straight out to the pool, a shaded dining area for 22, and a brand-new pool with 15 sunbeds, surrounded by peaceful nature.
The villa offers 11 exquisite bedrooms and 11 private ensuite bathrooms, ensuring every guest enjoys complete privacy. Sleeping quarters are arranged across three floors: 2 double bedrooms on the main floor, 4 double suites on the first floor, and 5 bedrooms, 4 doubles and 1 twin, on the top floor beneath wood-beamed ceilings.
Outside, highlights a traditional Italian-style garden with a central fountain, framing panoramic views of rolling vineyards and olive trees that stretch as far as the eye can see. Wine and family sit at the very heart of Villa Maionchi. The estate is an active, family-run boutique winery producing its own prestigious local vintages right on site. Guests are immersed in the true Tuscan lifestyle: you can walk through rows of private vineyards, gather for private guided tastings in the cellar, and drink as much wine as your heart desires.
Perfect for wine enthusiasts, multi-generational family reunions, or large retreats seeking an authentic Tuscan vineyard lifestyle near Lucca. Walk through private vineyard rows at sunset, sample estate wines on the terrace, or retreat inside for a private historical sanctuary.
