The building was constructed in 1668 for Giovanni Controni. It was then purchased by the Massoni family during the first half of the XIXth century.

The enchanting private garden has been preserved in its original 1600's state. Four large raised flowerbeds form the center of the garden. Walkways throughout are bordered by ornate low walls, decorated with fascinating bas relief masks expertly crafted. The rear façade of the garden features a small pool presided over by marble sculptures of a woman, two eagles, and the family coat of arms supported by two dogs.

The vast apartment lies on the ground floor of the historic building, just a few steps from the street. In the living area, two large doors open onto the private garden. The living area consists of two large parlors, a huge dining room with a large round table, a large kitchen and a big laundry room with a washer and a dryer.
Off the entry hall there is an elegant office with murals covering the entire room.
The sleeping quarters are separated from the living area by an impressive corridor flanked by massive armoires, antique benches and tapestry.
There are three large double bedrooms and a single bedroom.
The single bedroom has a modern bathroom with shower en-suite.

Comments from our guests

From: Susan DeLuca
Date of stay: 8-19 Settembre 2012
We have stayed in many beautiful apartments in Lucca, but this was by far the grandest palazzo! It is vast. Residents could take their daily exercise just walking from the back bedroom to the laundry. This apartment is incredible. It is in a great location, on Via Angelo Custode, just between Via Santa Croce and Via Angelo Mordini. It's away from the bustling center of town, but close enough to get anywhere in a matter of minutes. I fell in love with Roberto, the caretaker of the "Secret Garden," which is an absolute paradise. Although we didn't use it, we toured the guest house, which is very charming and quite modern--completely opposite of the grand apartment from the 1600s. Although there were only 4 of us, this property is ideal for a large group. There's plenty of space for everyone--guests won't get in one another's way. We were the very first to rent Il Giardino Segreto. Thanks to Debora who always does a great job!
