Villa Medicea di Lilliano

We had such a peaceful and memorable stay at Villa Medicea di Lilliano. The tranquility of the location, surrounded by lush vineyards and olive groves, made for an incredibly relaxing experience. The proximity to Florence was ideal, allowing us to easily explore the city while returning to the serenity of the villa each evening. A special mention goes to Katia, who made our stay even more delightful. She is incredibly warm and welcoming, and she brought the same sense of hospitality to the breakfast table each morning. Her thoughtful touch made every meal feel special. We also had the pleasure of participating in the wine and olive oil tasting. The experience was not only delicious but also informative, allowing us to learn about the local products in a beautiful setting. I would highly recommend Villa Medicea di Lilliano for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat with easy access to Florence and the surrounding countryside. It was the perfect blend of relaxation, hospitality, and beauty.

We really loved our stay here. We came for 2 nights during our honeymoon and we're so glad we made the trip out of Florence for it. All the staff were wonderful, great at communication prior to the stay and very friendly, helpful and professional during our time there. Our room was also lovely, really spacious, comfy bed and a massive bathroom with 2 showers, bath, double sinks. They left us a bottle of wine and a lovely note which was such a sweet gesture! Beautiful views out the windows to the rolling tuscan hills. We had a room with communal kitchen which they also serve breakfast from. We cooked on 1 of the nights and although the equipment was basic, we managed to make tasty meal. The breakfasts were good, we are both vegan and they got special vegan things in for us which we really appreciated. The grounds are gorgeous, we loved sitting out on the lawn or at the table to have lunch or evening drinks, just so peaceful and serene. The pool was a nice addition, it wasn't super hot during our stay and the pool was cold, so we only used it once and there were quite a few mosquitos! In the warmer months I'm sure it's lovely and refreshing! We took a lovely long walk around the area, they provided us with a map and it was such a highlight. We passed so amazing views, all the vineyards and olive groves. We didn't have a car so we just explored the local area. We stopped in a local town called Grassina during our walk for a drink, and we walked back into the town later on for a really really delicious dinner! A car might be useful if you're staying longer than a couple of nights, but we found it easy enough to get from Florence in a taxi and walk whilst we were there. We also did oe of the vineyard tours and wine tasting up on the estate and if was such a memorable experience so would recommend booking something whilst you're there!

Great facilities, clean and wonderful staff.

Amazing Tuscany view from the room and common areas. Very friendly and helpful staff. We really appreciate Denise for her recommendations, she is a lovely person. Beautiful and very spacious room. Breakfast was also amazing with carefully selected meat, cheese,a big variety of croissants, etc . I do not understand why people complain that gardens where the family stays are closed, especially if you can still see those with a booked tour. Although the pictures are accurate the place is even more beautiful when you see it in person.

This is a great place to get away and see a winery and olive oil operation in action. The property is a short drive from Florence, and easy to get to by car. But I would recommend having a car. You need one to get to the one o f the adjoining towns the Villa is in if you want to get dinner. The room was huge and spacious, and had an amazing bathroom. The breakfast was very nice and the pool was relaxing and wonderful to stay at. The staff is over the top helpful and so great to work with. They went above and beyond to assist us on some of our needs.
