The apartment was very close to the city center and very convenient to shops and restaurants.Host was so helpful and friendly, would definitely go back!
We had a wonderful stay at Corte Paolina! There were 4 adults in our group so having 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms worked out great! The unit was well appointed and clean with everything we could possibly need. The beds were super comfortable so a good nights sleep was had by all. The hosts were quickly responsive to any questions that we had in regards to the unit or the area. Having a courtyard made a great retreat for an afternoon glass of wine and cheese. I would highly recommend staying here and we would definitely return!
The property was perfect in every way! Fantastic location, very well equipped with everything we needed plus spotlessly clean. Riccardo and Roberto could not have been more helpful. Hopefully we will be back soon.
We absolutely loved our stay at this villa in Lucca. A charming and very comfortable place located in a prime location. Easily accessible to eateries, cafes, and beautiful churches. This place had everything we needed whether we stayed inside to cook ourselves or not. Communication between us and the owner was great. Very accommodating. We definitely want to come back and stay here again in the future.
Fabulous property with stunning courtyard. Perfectly located within the city walls with easy access to shops, restaurants and city attractions. The host provided excellent recommendations of where to eat and ideas of what to visit while in the city. Great communication.
Perfect and charming property. From the moment we booked Riccardo was an attentive host, offering us restaurant recommendations and other tips for our visit as well as arranging parking. Every aspect of our stay was seamless, and the apartment and accompanying courtyard were beautiful. The location is excellent, the apartment well-furnished and clean, and we were sad to leave! Definitely consider this place if you are coming to Lucca. I wil definitely stay there again when we return.
From the moment we met Riccardo we felt welcome and at home. The apartment was beautiful and every detail was attended to. We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful stay. It is one of the best VRBO experiences I’ve had. The location was wonderful and Riccardo gave us excellent dinner recommendations as well as left a book in the apartment with all instructions and recommendations. We are already talking about when we will be able to return. Thank you so much for everything!!!
What a delightful and enjoyable stay within the walls of Lucca!
Riccardo and family were wonderful and accommodating hosts of this beautiful property. With your approach to the apartment you are treated by a lovely courtyard which is perfect for enjoying warm days. The apartment was very comfortable and well furnished. We stayed for 12 nights and loved our time in this apartment. Will definitely rent this property again with return trips to Lucca.
The apartment is located in a nice location with access to the wall just down the street for walks along the wall. There are stores, bakeries, restaurants and specialty stores close by. The host provides a very beneficial guide to the city and places of interest that was very helpful and used often during our stay.
Highly recommend this property!
We were two couples visiting Lucca and Riccardo’s apartment worked perfectly for us. There are 2 bedrooms/bathrooms separated by a living room and kitchen so private. The apartment is in a great location, just a few minutes from the main square, near many shops and restaurants. The apartment is nicely decorated, spotlessly clean and has every amenity you may need, including a dryer! ( very rare in Italy). Riccardo and his son greeted us upon arrival and communicated well before and during our visit. I give his apartment the highest recommendation. Do walk/jog/bike on the walls. They are a wonderful feature of Lucca.
This was a true gem of a place location. Host. Space and amenities I couldn’t recommend it more. I would buy this place and will be coming back for sure.
This is an amazing property. If you are staying in Lucca, I highly suggest this wonderful place! Riccardo and his son were wonderful and very helpful with all of our questions. The location of Corte Paolina is just perfect!
Bus/train and 24 hour parking nearby the property.

This property was just what we needed after traveling for almost 2 weeks. The apartment was lovely, quiet, and clean and the courtyard was amazing. We had 3 lovely ladies in the apartment next to us that we talked to daily. Our host was so attentive and assisted us and answered many questions. His son checked us in and, later in the evening saw us out exploring and went out of his way to say hello. I would highly recommend this stay in Lucca.
Wonderful city! Apartment was wonderful,a lot room location was perfect. Are host Riccardo was great. Can't wait to come back. Took the bike tour it was great our guide Marts was wonderful.
Charming apartment in a perfect location for exploring this wonderful city! Enter through a garden courtyard, up one flight of stairs and you are in heaven. It’s quiet yet close to cafes, markets, bike rentals and all the sights. The host, Riccardo, is very responsive and provides great ideas for restaurants and other local haunts. Beds are super comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped for everything - however the amazing restaurants were such a draw we barely used it! Washer/dryer is a plus and the bathrooms/showers are terrific. The apartment is bright and comfortable. Riccardo arranged for easy parking down the street (the apartment is in a limited driving zone) and welcomed us with a delicious Lucchese cake. We were there for 3 glorious nights and wish we had booked more time! Hope to return soon and will definitely stay here. This place is a gem if you are planning to come to Lucca.
