La Monastica Resort & Spa: a gem in the heart of Tuscany
In the picturesque medieval village of Buggiano Castello, between the cities of Lucca and Pistoia, you will find La Monastica Resort & Spa, an exclusive boutique hotel carved out of a 16th-century ancient monastery. This resort offers a unique environment where history and nature blend to provide a stay dedicated to complete relaxation and wellness.
Located on the top of a hill with panoramic views of the splendid Valdinievole, the village retains its intact medieval charm, characterized by stone streets and ancient walls. Its isolated position away from city traffic ensures an atmosphere of privacy and tranquility, ideal for those wishing to rejuvenate far from the daily chaos.
A charming property born from an ancient monastery
The heart of the resort is the former Monastery of Santa Scolastica, built in the 16th century and skillfully restored to preserve its original character. Hospitality is completed by four adjacent residences, designed for those who prefer an even more immersive holiday experience in Tuscan life and tradition.
The spacious and elegant rooms and suites combine historic elements with contemporary design, creating warm and welcoming environments. Every accommodation has been designed to guarantee maximum privacy and comfort, offering an exclusive and unforgettable stay experience.
Taste and relaxation experiences immersed in nature
The gourmet restaurant offers cuisine inspired by Tuscan tradition, highlighting fresh and seasonal ingredients, many sourced from the resortâs own vegetable garden. Each dish tells the story of the territory, prepared with care and passion for an authentic and refined gastronomic experience.
The Spa, a true oasis of well-being, offers a wide range of treatments made with natural products. Guests can relax in the sauna, Turkish bath, emotional showers, or in the pool carved into the rock, where micronized water helps restore deep mental and physical well-being.
Not to be missed is the terraced garden, spread over nine levels and surrounded by ancient medieval towers, which overlooks a breathtaking view of the Valdinievole. Two pools with micronized water complete the outdoor area, promoting moments of pure relaxation.
Strategic location and unique climate
While enjoying a secluded position, La Monastica Resort & Spa is just a short distance from important cultural and tourist destinations. In a few minutes, you can reach the thermal towns of Montecatini Terme, art cities such as Pistoia, Lucca, and Pisa, and the Versilia beaches, including Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi.
Buggiano Castello is also known as the "Village of Citrus" thanks to its particular microclimate that favors the cultivation of citrus fruits, giving the resort a milder air and a suggestive atmosphere.
In this unique context, the resort represents a perfect balance between history, nature, and design, designed to offer its guests a rejuvenating and comfortable stay.
