Villa Ulivi is a remarkably beautiful and luxurious fifteenth century Florentine Villa located few minutes away from Florence's historic city centre and from its main monuments, as well as from the shopping area, up towards the wonderful landscape of an ideal Tuscan hill. The imposing building, characterized by the Italian Villa tradition while incorporating the comforts available today, is set in a residential area that both overlooks and is extremely close to the town’s attractions. Access to downtown Florence is easily attainable by either a comfortable, scenic walk or a short bus ride down the famous Via Bolognese. Both options are simple to navigate for travellers of any age or experience level. Villa Ulivi also has partnerships with scooter and bicycle rental companies to meet all of their guests travel needs. The villa grounds are surrounded and beautified by magnificent vineyards and olive orchards, as well as an array of local flowers and blossoming trees. In spite of its central location, Villa Ulivi is immersed in a garden planted with fragrant roses and lavender, at the end of a shady horse-chestnuts' lane. Villa Ulivi offers travellers an authentic Tuscan experience and allows for a relaxing retreat from the "hustle and bustle" of the nearby city center. Guests are constantly amazed at how close Villa Ulivi is to the variety of tourism activities in downtown Florence, but, at the same time, how separated it is from the "hustle and bustle" of the busy city. Set in the hills overlooking the town, the Villa is everything visitors to Florence seek in their Tuscan adventure. As guests enter through the large stone gate and look down the private shady lane, they will realize that they are entering a new and exciting world. Pass through the main entrance and gaze up towards the beautiful, golden, eight meter ceilings. Admire the wooden balcony and dangling chandeliers. The ancient stone wine cellar, with three rooms with vaulted roofs and fifteenth century stone frames used for socializing and taste-testing, provides a place to escape and explore the collection of over 1,500 bottles. Stroll out to the back patio or enjoy a glass of Tuscan wine on the rooftop terrace. Both offer unimaginable views of the unspoilt hillside and city spread. Fernand Braudel described the Florentine landscape as, "The most touching countryside in the world." At Villa Ulivi, furnishings have been chosen with a careful eclectic taste. Tuscan pieces from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries create an atmosphere that is classical, authentic and most of all relaxing. Large and elegant lounges, illuminated by the Tuscan sun and open onto the gardens of the historic Villa, have been added in the course of the last two centuries to the fascinating, ancient wine-cellars and horse-stables. One of the common areas of the Villa provides technology services for the guests. There is a computer with Internet access, wireless Internet, printer, scanner, telephone, and fax machine. Villa Ulivi guests are able to make themselves as connected or separated from the outside world as they choose. There are also a variety of other benefits that Villa Ulivi has to offer. Guests are encouraged to use the Villa's rooftop terrace, backyard patio and wine cellar for romantic social gatherings. Upon request, the management can organize private parties that are catered by some of Florence's best chefs. Cooking classes and activities are periodically planned on the Villa grounds. Guests may also use the chapel for private religious services and the backyard barbeque grill for family meals. English and French are spoken. Double and Triple Rooms at Villa Ulivi are spacious and comfortable retreats that are furnished with local antiques that add charm to the pleasant atmosphere that guests experience. Each room offers a unique arrangement of double and / or single beds to surely meet any group's needs. Windows illuminate the living area and bathe the room with the wonderful Tuscan sun. Views overlook the Villa's gardens and the romantic city of Florence with its rolling hills as a backdrop. The floors are covered with a beautiful, historic wood and walls are done with hand painted fresco designs. Each room features a private bathroom that is tiled with prestigious Italian marble and is equipped with a lavish tub or shower. Every suite at Villa Ulivi is unique, just as it would have been with the original owners in the fifteenth century. Distinctive furniture sets and decorations in each room help to create a spectrum of Tuscan sights and atmospheres that is sure to please. Villa Ulivi believes that the rooms are only one piece of the entire puzzle. Guests immediately notice a more relaxing nights rest followed by mornings that seem crisper and brighter. There is a cool, gentle breeze that flows through the hills at night and the dawning sun calls upon the pleasantly chirping birds. Enjoy the cosy bed until the scent of breakfast creeps up the stairs to greet you. The fresh breakfast, with Florentine bread, coffee, tea, juice and home-made cakes and jams, is served each morning in the Villa's elegant lounges during the winter and on the outdoor terraces, beneath the pleasant shade of the luxuriant mimosa trees, during the summer. After breakfast has concluded, it is time to discover the historic city of Florence and the wonderful hills of Tuscany. Enjoy! |
