Surrounded by nature, you’ll have access to expansive outdoor spaces perfect for yoga, meditation, sound baths, and nature connection, along with a beautiful saltwater pool and fresh-from-the-garden meals.

The Villas at Isabella’s Earth Tuscany

Our private villas offer authentic Tuscan charm with a warm, grounded elegance. Each room features classic details with exposed wooden beams, soft natural light, and thoughtful furnishings — creating a peaceful and nurturing environment.

Guests enjoy beautiful views of the rolling hills and gardens, along with a deep sense of calm and connection to the land. The overall feeling is intimate, restorative, and supportive of deep rest, reflection, and meaningful connection during your retreat.

What Makes This Retreat Estate Extraordinary

The Saltwater Pool & Expansive Grounds

At the heart of the estate is a large, beautiful saltwater pool — naturally soft on the skin and eyes, and perfect for refreshing dips or quiet reflection. Surrounded by comfortable cabanas and shaded lounging areas, it becomes a serene gathering spot for your groups.

The expansive grassy lawns offer generous open space for outdoor yoga, embodied dance, movement practices, sound baths, group ceremonies, or simply resting in nature.

Whether under the open sky or breathing in the fresh air, these grounds create a powerful, spacious container for deep connection, healing, and joyful expression.

The Beautiful Grounds & Gardens

The estate’s expansive grounds are a living sanctuary of beauty, abundance, and peace.

Mature fruit trees — cherries, apricots and persimmons — offer seasonal sweetness and shade, the fragrant wisteria and kiwi-covered patios create magical outdoor spaces perfect for morning coffee, group gatherings — and (of course) your evening aperitivo and dining 'al fresco' experiences.

A graceful gazebo provides an intimate setting for meditation, journaling, reflection, or quiet conversations. Scattered throughout the property are private nooks and shaded benches designed for personal contemplation and reconnection with nature.

At the heart of the land is our thriving organic vegetable garden, and by June, it is bursting with sun-ripened tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, peppers, fresh basil, rosemary, and many other seasonal delights.

Your retreat groups will enjoy true garden-to-table meals, with ingredients harvested the same day — nourishing both body and spirit with the freshest flavors Tuscany has to offer.

These grounds are more than scenery — they are a powerful container for healing, creativity, and deep nature connection.

Versatile Indoor Studio Space

Our beautiful indoor studio offers retreat leaders exceptional flexibility for a wide range of activities.

With excellent natural light, high ceilings, and a warm, inviting atmosphere, it can easily be configured for:

• Yoga and movement classes

• Sound baths and meditation

• Workshops and teachings

• Creative expression sessions

• Group discussions and circles

• Intimate ceremonies

The studio’s adaptable layout and peaceful energy make it an ideal complement to the outdoor spaces, giving you reliable options regardless of weather while maintaining the high-vibration feeling your groups expect.

Convenient & Enchanting Location

This is a much bigger opportunity than simply renting another retreat venue.

You become a recognized leader in a growing global movement — with a dedicated retreat home, locked-in rates, full logistical support, and multiple new revenue streams for your own work.

The Location

Isabella’s Earth Tuscany is ideally situated in the peaceful hills just 10 minutes from the historic walled city of Lucca — famous for its charming cafes, shops, ancient architecture, and vibrant cultural life.

The estate is conveniently located just 20 minutes from Pisa International Airport and 45 minutes from Florence, making international travel smooth and effortless for your groups.

It is also within a short drive of the beautiful Viareggio beaches and the sparkling Versilia coast.

This privileged position offers the perfect balance: deep tranquility and profound connection with nature, while remaining easily accessible to historic towns, world-class dining, and coastal experiences.
