Location and surroundings of object
The villa is located in the immediate vicinity of the city (the centre is about km away), in the hamlet of Mirteto, at the foot of the Candia hills, surrounded by other dwellings and with a garden full of all kinds of plants and palms. All services can be reached in a few minutes. The sea is about 4.5 km away.
The town is located at the foot of the Apuan Alps facing the sea, a fortunate position that allows you to enjoy the entertainment of the Versilia coast and beautiful walks in the Alps with enchanting views .
At a short distance (about 30-40 min.) are the cities of Lucca and Pisa with their splendid landscapes, at the same time you can reach the beautiful Cinque Terre park (Unesco heritage site) with its typical colourful villages facing the sea and steep slopes cultivated with vines. The Cinque Terre can also be reached by a convenient railway connection and, by sea, by a boat that provides daily connections during the summer.
The valleys of Lunigiana offer wonderful opportunities for those wishing to spend a quiet day enjoying excellent traditional cuisine and visits to ancient medieval castles on the hilltops. A very short distance away are the towns of Pietrasanta (known for its art workshops), the charming town of Viareggio, Forte dei Marmi with its shops selling the best designer labels and the delightful town of Sarzana with its historic centre and castle. From the Malaspina Castle which dominates the town of Massa you can admire the splendid panorama which embraces the Riviera from Viareggio to the Gulf of Poets with splendid sunsets over the sea.
For mountain lovers, there are many paths, from the easiest for children to those for experts. For trekking enthusiasts, there is also a beautiful road through the mountains, designed in the 18th century by the architect Vandelli, that connects the city of Massa with Modena. This road was originally designed for horse-drawn carriages but is now used by hikers who appreciate the clean air, the silence of the mountains and the beautiful views it offers. The town of Carrara is worth a visit for its artistic workshops and marble museum

A dreamlike accommodation
We were there as a family with children (8 and 5 years old). The garden with its many exotic plants, which is lovingly maintained by Anna and Paolo, is indescribably beautiful.
The pool is a highlight for the whole family. The attic apartment is very spacious and furnished with loving details. In the kitchen you will find everything you need. Everything was very clean. The air conditioning in every room is worth gold at plus 35 degrees Celsius outside temperature. Anna and Paolo are true treasures as hosts. Very friendly, helpful and committed. You get good tips for excursions.
The city of Massa is not a particularly beautiful area, but if you drive a bit further, there are nice corners. The beach, about 15 minutes away, is wonderful if you pay for it. 50 euros for a parasol and 2-3 sun loungers/chairs, but a very clean beach, friendly staff, food/drinks, showers and toilets, as well as a covered parking lot. You have to like the free beach sections.
Definitely take something against mosquitoes, they really like human blood at any time.
We would definitely go there again.
Answer from Mrs. A. Conti:
Dear Yvonne,
thank you for your nice review!
You were very welcome guests. We will be happy to host you again.

Vacation in paradise
We felt very comfortable in the vacation rental. It was very spacious, clean and completely sufficient for our family of 4. The air conditioning was a great bonus during the hot temperatures, especially at night. The pool, the view and the garden were fantastic. The personal care by Anna and Paolo was warm and exceptionally friendly. We had a wonderful vacation. Thank you for everything. We will come back.

The paradise
We were allowed to spend a beautiful week in this fantastic accommodation! The lovingly designed garden and the house, which looks like a real temple, make you feel like in paradise! It's even more beautiful than the pictures suggest! We didn't lack anything. The homeowners are extremely friendly and helpful and can speak English very well. The only thing you should know in advance is that there are a lot of mosquitoes there. So you should bring enough mosquito spray or buy it on site.
We would love to come back to Anna and Paolo!
Thank you very much for everything
grazie mille

What a beautiful vacation!
At the beginning of June, the three of us stayed as guests in Anna and Paolo's holiday apartment in Massa-Carrara for a week. We were impressed by the beautiful and extraordinary apartment and the wonderfully beautiful garden with a pool. The hosts are so warm and welcoming - we felt very comfortable there and would come back at any time and recommend the apartment! Due to the great location, you can reach the sea in a few minutes. Cities like Pisa, Lucca and Florence are also easily accessible for day trips. But even if you just want to relax by the pool or garden, Anna and Paolo are the perfect hosts!

Exceptionally great apartment with pool. Insider tip
A place where you feel at home
Let's start with the lovely landlord couple, who were very friendly and helpful and gave us good tips for excursions and restaurants.
The flats themselves are well equipped. We have not had this before. With air conditioning in the living area and both bedrooms. Two roof terraces.
Then there is the large pool which we used every day. The large garden is a feast for the eyes with its countless palms and fruit trees
It was also good that we were allowed to park on the back part of the property. On the narrow street in front of the house, you really have to be afraid of run-off mirrors.
I'm sure I've forgotten to mention a few more nice things. But one thing is for sure, if you book here, you won't make a mistake
Our heartfelt thanks and greetings to
Anna and Paolo

Great
The estate is an enclave of beauty in the rather charmless residential town of Massa. The exception is the truly romantic Massa Fortress. The landlords are super nice and it is a privilege to stay in the very stylish villa with its park-like garden.
From the flat, the Cinque Terre can be reached in just over an hour, Florence in 1.5 hours. The prices in Massa were surprisingly reasonable, the beach unlike the town itself, very clean. Cinque Terre is probably a must, but is overrated in my opinion, as it is insanely overcrowded. An unforgettable experience was swimming in Porto Venere. The water is green and crystal clear and the scenery is magical
Lucca and Sarzana are very beautiful and only half an hour away. We left the car behind and drove around on rented scooters. If you dare to do that, you are king in Italy, you can drive up at any traffic light and you can always find a free parking space. In summary, it was a great and not expensive holiday.

Kultur- und Badeurlaub mit stilvoller Unterkunft
Das Haus an sich ist sicher einzigartig. Hiermit nochmals Anerkennung an Paolo. Dass die Vermieter im Haus wohnen war für uns positiv. Wer laute Party feiern möchte ist hier vermutlich an der falschen Stelle. Für Familien- und Kultururlauber sind Anna und Paolo ideal und somit kann ich die vorherigen Bewertungen bestätigen.
Alle Fotos entsprechen dem aktuellen Stand bzw. der aktuelle Stand ist noch besser wie z.B. das Pool, welches tipptopp ohne Verschmutzung am Boden, Wänden oder das Wasser betrifft. Ich vermisse jetzt schon mein morgendliches Schwimmen mit meiner Tochter in dem 10m langen und bis zu 2,5 Meter tiefen Pool.
Eigentlich sollte man gar keine Werbung hier dafür machen und es nur seinen besten Freunden empfehlen. Aber Anna und Paolo haben dies verdient.
Warum manchmal nur 4 und nicht immer 5 Sterne? Natürlich gibt es Unterkünfte die bezüglich Luxus noch mehr bieten. Diese findet man bestimmt in der Nachbarbadestadt Viareggio. Aber dann kostet das Ganze vermutlich auch mehr als das Doppelte.

Stilvolle Wohlfühl-Oase
Wir (2 befreundete Paare) durften 1 Woche die Gastfreundlichkeit von Anna und Paolo genießen. Die Wohnung war gr0ß genug, der Ausblick durch das Bullauge in den Garten ist atemberaubend, und die Stunden am kleinen aber feinen Pool werden wir so schnell nicht vergessen. Der Garten (Anna: Nutzgarten) ist außergewöhnlich schön, eine Oase zum Ausspannen.
Die Lage ist optimal, um die nahgelegenen Sehenswürdigkeiten der Toskana und Liguriens zu erforschen. Die Tipps von Anna und Paola waren hier sehr hilfreich und sollten unbedingt erfragt werden. So konnten wir ein traditionelles Restaurant fußläufig erreichen, das wir so nie gefunden hätten. Rundherum ein stilvolles Ambiente, auf das wir uns nach jeder Tour wieder gefreut haben, es zu bewohnen. Wir fühlten uns immer willkommen und auch sofort Zuhause.
Anna und Paolo, nochmals vielen Dank dafür! Grazie mille!
