Villa Benassai

Villa Benassai is where Tuscan grandeur meets centuries of history. Nestled in the tranquil hills just moments from the walled city of Lucca, this magnificent 8-bedroom luxury villa offers an unparalleled retreat for discerning travelers seeking authenticity, elegance, and space. Built in the early 17th century, Villa Benassai served the nobility and court of Napoleon's sister, Elisa Bonaparte, Princess of Lucca making it one of the most historically significant private residences available for rent in all of Tuscany.

This is not simply a villa, t's a journey through time. Villa Benassai stands as one of a dozen historic estates that flourished during the Napoleonic era, when Elisa Bonaparte transformed Lucca into a cultural beacon of Italy. While staying at Villa Benassai, you'll walk the same halls and gardens once frequented by European nobility, surrounded by architectural details that have witnessed nearly four centuries of Italian history.
