Lovely place
A comfortable place to stay with everything that we needed plus an amazing terrace. This is in an excellent location and the views are fabulous, but there are a few stairs so this may not be the place if you have mobility issues.

Quiet oasis with amazing views
The accommodation is beautiful! Just outside of the hustle and bustle of the interior tourist area, this apartment is wonderful to return to. The views from the patio are stunning! Also, easy access to the wall that surrounds the city with beautiful walking path. Loved it and Lucca!

Beautiful week in Lucca
Lots of stairs, 5th floor with no loft, but if you are ok with that, this is a lovely apartment and super easy to get around in Lucca. We loved every minute.

Amazing Stay!
Our week at villa Emy was amazing! So close to everything but in a calm area. We felt all alone amongst the roof tops at the terrace. Amazing view and a very nice outdoor cinema on the other side of the house. The people at Lucca appartments answered quick on all of our questions :)

The roof top terrace was magical
Great location, the roof top terrace was magical. The apartment was very clean , better than averaged appointed and was well represented in photos. We were a party of 6 adults, 3 couples. the only downside was that those sleeping in small bedroom had to access the bathroom by going through the larger bedroom. It wasn’t an issue for us but might be for others . I would definitely stay here again.

Lucca Visit with Friends
Casa Emy provided a wonderful accommodation for the 4 of us. Very well stocked with everything you need. The terrace is a definite bonus and was a lovely area to sit to have pre dinner drinks and also to enjoy the super views in the evening across Lucca. The stairs to the apartment were fine for us, and got easier as the week went on. The location is perfect with everything within a few minutes walk. Emanuel was very nice and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall a super apartment in a super location with great hosts.

Sehr schöne Wohnung in angenehmer Lage im Zentrum vo Lucca
Die Wohnung war gemütlich und freundlich eingerichtet und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt (Belegung der Wohnung mit 2 Paaren). Durch die Verteilung von Schlaf- und Badezimmern auf zwei Etagen war auch eine gewisse Trennung zur Schlafenszeit möglich. Die Dachterrasse war auch sehr schön. Der einzige Wermutstropfen ist der fehlende Aufzug, aber das hält einen fit und stärkt die Beinmuskulatur. 😉

Beautiful Terrace View
This apartment was exactly what one would expect when staying in Lucca. It had the old charm of Italy. The terrace was spectacular! We spent as much time as possible sipping wine and having dinner on it. The kitchen was well furnished for cooking even large meals. The only con to staying here is the stairs. Carrying luggage up five flights of stairs was brutal. This place is not for anyone who has knee or hip issues. This apartment would be a 5+ if the building had a lift.

Beautiful Apartment in Lucca
We recently spent 10 days in the amazing town of Lucca and were fortunate to have booked this beautiful apartment. The accommodations were very comfortable for myself, my husband and our adult son and daughter-in-law. This apartment is owned by an artist and so is beautifully decorated with art work, both by the owner and other artists. The apartment has very comfortable sleeping arrangements and bathrooms. The most amazing feature of the apartment is the terrace which overlooks all of Lucca. We spent many an evening there for wine and cheese. The kitchen is fairly well supplied, although we found that eating out in Lucca is part of the experience and very reasonable. One of our favorite restaurants is just around the corner - Gli Orti di Via Elisa. The Lucca wall and is close for walking and bike riding, a don't miss experience. Lucca is an amazing town -- the history, food, shopping, people and music. Don't miss the weekly Puccini concert in the San Giovanni church.The train station is in walking distance for easy access to Florence or other destinations in Italy. One final note, the apartment is on the 3rd floor so there are many steps which may not be appropriate for young children or anyone unable to climb stairs easily. We didn't mind it as it was nice to have the exercise especially after all of the fine food of Italy!

It's all about the terrace
We've just returned from a 6-night stay at this wonderful property. The big selling point is the terrace, which is just as represented in the photos. The building is quite tall (4-stories) so it has an almost unobstructed 360-degree view, including sites such as the Guinigi Tower, almost a stone' throw away. Few places in Lucca have a terrace with such a commanding view. We also really enjoyed the location of the property. It's on a quiet street that is composed mostly of apartments and few stores so the noise level was almost non-existent after 8 PM. We loved sleeping with the windows open, hearing the birds in the morning hours. The location is quite convenient, however, to any place you'd want to walk (restaurants, the supermarket, the Anfiteatro, etc.) The one caution: be prepared to walk up stairs. The apartment is on the 3rd floor, and it is located on two floors. My wife and I didn't mind in the slightest, but this aspect of the unit should be considered if walking up stairs several times each day my dim your enthusiasm. The kitchen was functional but perhaps a bit less well stocked than places we have stayed. This may or may not matter depending on your level of culinary ambitions. The apartment sleeps six, but more practically, two couples and two children. The property is basically split onto 2 floors, which is a nice attribute to provide a bit more personal space if two or more couples are sharing the space. It is well furnished and we enjoyed the eclectic art on the walls. All in all, we had a very nice stay and will likely try to rent this apartment on your next return to Lucca.
