Everything about this villa is excellent - rooms, pool, beautiful grounds. The A/C is excellent which is really important during the summer and is a rare find for a renovated villa. The chef made us breakfast every morning and we also used his services for dinner most evenings as we were a large group. Loved having the huge dining room table to seat all 20 of us! We also loved having the pool since it was quite hot in July.

Sylvia made all of our dreams come true! All of our family stayed on property and we truly had an amazing wedding weekend. Villa Mori exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, spacious, and magnificent. Sylvia was very prompt with her communication and made sure everything was perfect for my big day. The main town of Lucca was a short drive and perfect for exploring when we had some free time. I can not thank her enough for opening up her place to us. I will cherish these memories from Villa Mori for a lifetime!
