Our take on Villa la Massa
A Medici-era villa in a nine-hectare park on a quiet bend of the Arno, with a free shuttle to the Ponte Vecchio: 51 rooms, an outdoor pool with L'Oliveto's bistro beside it, Il Verrocchio's terraces over the river, the Arno spa, tennis, a children's playground, a games room and babysitting. Two MICHELIN Keys; the countryside coda after the museums and our family pick for space. Open for the season from late March to November; LHW member.
