Perfect spot for Lucca
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this apartment. It was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, had very comfortable beds and sofas, great wi-fi and a well-equipped kitchen. Renata was wonderful, even leaving us a delicious apple tart and smooth white wine from her own vineyard. She and a friend helped us with our luggage up and down the stairs. There are 60 steps, but Italy is about steps, hills, and walking. I never felt guilty about enjoying those daily gelatos. We walked the tree lined wall several times and loved those times....great views from there. The traffic can be noisy in the front bedroom and the dogs sometimes barking in the back one, but we just closed the windows and turned on the fans in the air-conditioner and all was fine. The best part was the location. It was very near the beautiful wall with the lovely walk around the old city and also near the supermarket and Avis car rental. If inside the city, you would be far away from these last two places. We rented a car and drove to the hill town of Volterra and loved the breathtaking views up there. Another activity we enjoyed, actually going twice, was the opera music of Puccini in the San Giovanni Church. You will love Lucca.
Beautiful and lush comfort in Lucca
We stayed here for a week and made Lucca our home base. Appartamento Emma could not have been more perfect; it was very comfortable, welcoming, and never skimped on amenities for our comfort. Named after the family dog, the apartment offers a full kitchen, two bathrooms, and three legitimate sleeping rooms. You could definitely sleep six here.
Renata welcomed us with a gift of homemade lemon cake and wine from her family vineyard. What a classy touch! She offered many suggestions and advice regarding activities, resources and meals. Everything was wonderful! Take a bicycle ride along Lucca's wall for a postcard-worthy experience.
Tip: there are four floors to climb but I've definitely improved my cardio on this trip!
So stylishly comfortable and perfectly positioned in Lucca
This is a wonderfully comfortable and stylish apartment ideally situated opposite the medieval walls and a short walk from the train station. We had a lovely week long stay here and found the apartment to be spacious and airy. The beds have good memory foam mattresses with quality bed linen, we all slept really well! The kitchen is well equipped with everything you could need if you wish to eat in. It felt really welcoming to come home to after a days sightseeing. We visited both Pisa and Florence by train as it was much easier than driving. The trains are cheap, clean and plentiful. Lucca itself is an amazing place. Walking the walls with the locals and their dogs, hiring bikes to ride the walls and relaxing with a coffee and people watching are a great way to get a feel for the city. There are lots of great shops and restaurants, beautiful churches and other sites of interest. Lavinia's parents welcomed us to the apartment with delicious Easter cake and a bottle of wine from their own vineyard. They were so warm and friendly and showed us where everything was, and were on call if we needed them (we didn't, everything was perfect!). We will definitely return!
Beautiful, quiet and comfortable apartment in a great location
The owners were kind and helpful, paying attention to every detail. We appreciated the welcome cake and wine! Delicious! I also appreciated the decoration.
Great place to stay!
Beautiful Comfortable Apartment
The property was great! We were met by Renata and her husband who made us welcome and answered any questions.
She had baked us a delicious Lemon Cake and left a bottle of her vinyard white wine 😋
All the detailsof the apartment were well thought out, and we loved it!!
This was probably my 10th VRBO over the years, and it stands out as one of the best!?!
Thank you so much Renata
Beautiful apartment in every way; location was perfect for accessing Lucca and also for accessing To
Renate, Lavinia and Walter were very helpful answering all questions and solving minor problems! All beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were modern and well equipped. I would give Appartmento Emma 10 stars if I was asked to do so... I love Italy and hope to return again someday.. I will definitely recommend Emma to all my friends!!!!! Tante Gracias
