Villa Gamberaio

Historic and elegant villa in the heart of Tuscany

Villa Gamberaio is an aristocratic 16th-century residence beautifully situated in Lucca, Tuscany. The current owners purchased the property in 1995 and have since carried out an extensive restoration with great respect for its history and architecture. The result is a grand yet welcoming villa that combines modern comfort with timeless elegance.

Exclusive accommodation with flexible solutions
The villa features 16 bedrooms/suites, each with a private bathroom, and can accommodate up to 32 guests. For smaller groups, parts of the villa can be closed off. Spread over three floors, the property has both a lift and stairs. Common areas include several elegant lounges, a large dining room, and two kitchens – one for guests and one for catering staff.

Breakfast and special services included
A buffet breakfast is included in the stay and served each morning. For weekly rentals, a welcome dinner is also included. All rooms have a complimentary pre-stocked minibar, and there is daily housekeeping (except Sundays). The villa is otherwise rented on a self-catering basis, but a private chef or catering can be arranged on request. The Limonaia annex can be used as an event or meeting space – pricing available upon request.

Unique details and preserved frescoes
During restoration, original frescoes were discovered on ceilings and walls and have been carefully preserved. These classical Italian paintings add distinctive charm and authenticity to the villa. The interiors reflect the property’s long history while offering modern comfort and convenience.

Magnificent outdoor spaces
The garden has been recreated following the original 1843 plans and features a classic Italian symmetrical design. The outdoor area includes a large courtyard with long tables and umbrellas, lush greenery, and a private swimming pool (16 x 6 m, depth 1.4 m) exclusively for guests’ use. The pool is open from May to October, but can be opened outside this period upon request.

Hosts with a passion for the property
The villa is owned by a dedicated couple who live on-site. They have a private entrance and do not use the garden or pool, but are available when needed and committed to ensuring guests have a first-class stay.

Location
The villa is located on a hillside in Lucca, surrounded by historic estates and vineyards. The nearest winery (500 m) welcomes visitors for wine tastings and tours. Local grocery, butcher, and bakery: 1–1.5 km away. Lucca historic centre: 9 km. Pisa: 50 minutes by car. The Mediterranean and Versilia coast: 45 minutes by car. Florence: approx. 1 hour by car.

About Villa Gamberaio (up to 32 guests)
The villa extends over three floors, all accessible by lift. The ground floor includes spacious lounges, two modern professional kitchens, a large dining room, and bathrooms. One kitchen is designed for catering staff. The lounges open onto a charming courtyard and paved terrace, where meals can be enjoyed outdoors under a large parasol (seating for 32). The upper floors house the bedrooms – 16 in total, all with private bathrooms. Four of the rooms are two-level suites with a mezzanine double bed and a sofa bed on the lower level. The villa accommodates 32 guests + 8 on sofa beds (supplement applies for use of sofa beds). In addition to the en-suite bathrooms, there are two guest bathrooms on the ground floor.

The Limonaia
An annex/event space available for special occasions or corporate groups needing separate meeting facilities. The room features movable partitions for flexible layouts suitable for meetings, presentations, or gatherings, and is equipped with state-of-the-art technical equipment. Rental rates are available upon request.

Both those who work in PrimaToscana and those who work at the reception at Varramista are super welcoming and helpful. Fast response time and on the offer side, both when it came to procuring transport and miscellaneous. activities such as wine tasting and cooking classes. Very satisfied! Would love to come back.

Hello. Me and my friends had a great stay in September in Portovenere. Primatoscana can be highly recommended!

Fantastic service. I have used Primatoscana both privately and when I had to organize a larger event through my company. Thanks to Cecilie and Knut for helping to make dreams come true!

Casa Mira is an absolutely lovely place with plenty of space and facilities in true Tuscan style. Very nice family who welcomed us and followed us up along the way if we needed help. They quickly arrived when we called, for example when the power went out a couple of times during our stay. Rubbish was emptied every day, and we came to a clean and tidy house on arrival.
We were two families with a total of 8 children, for which the house was perfect. The only thing we would like was air conditioning in all bedrooms, only two bedrooms have this and it was very hot at night.
Super location with a short stroll to the nearest local baker with fresh bread every morning, a lovely pizza place with takeaway, and a short drive to the nearest grocery store. Very good restaurant just down the street from the house. And a lively playground/meeting place two minutes away where families, young people, grandparents etc. met in the evenings with a small kiosk, tennis court, football pitch and playground. The kids had a great time here.

We would love to come back to Casa Mira!!

Primatoscana is a very professional operator
with high quality dialogue and communication before the start of the stay.

Perfect family place in lovely surroundings. Nice pools and not least very good quality
food in the on-site restaurant.

The house exceeded our expectations, it was almost like a castle with a lovely location in central Tuscany, close to other great places. There were 12 of us, grandparents with children and grandchildren. The accommodation was top notch, and the property with its own pool was undisturbed. We stayed in Villa Torre in Iano.
