Absolutely adored this place. The very essence of pure tranquility, the grounds are awesome, so lush, green and spacious. Great sized pool and comfy sunloungers that you're not battling for. On the edge of Lucca, its really easy to get into the centre (I'm told there is a direct bus but we drove in and parked outside of the wall). The apartment was so lovely, clean, fresh and cool. Great little kitchen area too. Beds were extremely comfortable and I don't think I've ever slept so well on a holiday! Breakfast is great, with a good selection (which varies daily) and the cooked eggs can be tailored to your preference (and the mushroom accompaniment is incredible). Breakfast is served in a bequtiful al fresco area under shelter. Some evenings there are set meals you could enjoy, which I would absolutely recommend. Marco and the team are absolutely incredible - so friendly, welcoming and helpful. Ottman in particular was a complete sweetheart. Always chirpy and chatty. He helped us get the bikes set up to go out for a lovely bike ride in the local area (which I recommend).
Only negatives were the terrace for our apartment could do with a freshen up, but it was nice nonetheless. Also, I'm very fussy when it comes to coffee so would always prefer a proper coffee rather than a pod type which was in the appartment. Having said that, moka coffee was available at breakfast, so it was fine!
