One of the best things about Tuscany as a destination is that it boasts a varied and beautiful landscape. Those who book a villa in Tuscany, therefore, will often find that alongside savouring incredible meals and local wines, ticking major attractions off their bucket lists like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, experiencing astounding works of art and architectural gems like Michelangelo's David and Florence's Duomo, and relaxing like a local, simply soaking up the beauty all around is what makes a vacation here so magical! Better still, many of our holiday rentals in Tuscany offer guests perfectly framed views that they can enjoy all throughout their stay – when you open your bedroom window in the morning, as you dine al fresco in the garden, when you're lounging by the pool, while sipping wine during sunset on the terrace, and more. 

In order to help you find a truly magical property with picture-perfect scenery, we've put together a list of some of our most incredible examples of vacation rentals in Tuscany with amazing views...

With spacious, yet warm and welcoming typically Tuscan interiors, a beautiful garden full of blooms, a private swimming pool and hot tub, and panoramic views over the lush Tuscan countryside, Torre del Cielo,  5km from the centre of Monterchi, has long been one of our most popular luxury villas in Tuscany.

Sleeping up to ten guests in five bedrooms, with five bathrooms, what sets this property apart is the incredible extra services offered by the attentive owners. Included in the basic rental cost is a welcome buffet on arrival, a tour of the area, and a wine tasting in the cellar of the property for guests but meals being prepared in-house for you by an experienced local chef, maid services, and other extras can also be arranged. Additionally, you'll always have someone close at hand to answer questions you might have or provide aid. 

Guests regularly note that the beauty of this large property and the hospitality of the owners are the major appeals of Torre del Cielo, which is why some are repeat guests already and others are planning to return in the future but don’t just take it from us, this is what guests have to say about this stunning gem, which has just one week remaining in June for summer 2026 but could be booked in advance for your next perfect group vacation in Tuscany...

Tuscany is a place that can feel inherently magical – with its legendary rolling green hills bathed in golden light at sunset or draped in fog in the early morning, the cities and towns that seem frozen in time, the gardens dotted with statues that feel as though they might come to life, and so much more – but if you are looking for your next destination then we put forward Lucca for your consideration. This ancient walled city is one of those that can seem as though it has remained utterly untouched by time but it is also a place filled with unique curiosities and impossibly beautiful wonders. Book one of our incredible villas in Lucca and then come explore this dreamy little wonder of a city...

Spring through to early summer is a gorgeous time of year to visit Florence. Not only have the larger tourist crowds yet to descend on the city, leaving you not only with less time spent in queues and more time to explore the Birthplace of the Renaissance, but the temperatures are rising while weather conditions remain mild enough to dart all over the place as much as you want comfortably. Furthermore, the great architectural gems and sweeping vistas over the skyline and beautifully preserved historic centre are that much lovelier once the city begins to bloom... So, book your villa in Florence for a spring break or early summer getaway and come discover the city at its prettiest and the gardens that make it all the more charming...

Have you been dreaming about a vacation in Tuscany? Well, now is a perfect time to plan a trip as many new direct flights to the region have been added!

Traditionally, many choosing to holiday in the area had to fly into Bologna but Pisa and Florence are actually the two major international airports within the region itself and might be more convenient arrival points depending on where you will be staying. Thankfully, however, there are increasingly more and more direct routes opening to these two regional airports so if you want to plan a trip, you’ll have more options available to you. Book your villa in Tuscany and you’ll be able to easily organise your arrival thanks to these new direct flights...
