22 villas · curated by us
Fourteen is where the choice in Italy starts to narrow. Most villas sleep 10 or 12 at most, so a house that takes 14 under one roof, or on one estate, is worth booking early. The villas on this page sleep 14 to 17 guests: family reunions, milestone birthdays and groups of friends who travel together every year.
Some houses this size are estates with a main villa and a guesthouse. If it matters that everyone sleeps under one roof, tell us and we will only send you those.

A booking we planned for a group this size
A couple from outside Philadelphia, who had travelled with us before to France, wrote more than a year ahead about two weeks in Chianti with their children and grandchildren. The whole family loves tennis, so the court came first on the list. We booked Villa Tavernaccia, an eight-bedroom Renaissance villa above San Casciano with its own tennis court and a heated pool, from late May into early June.
The family came and went over the fortnight, so the house held anywhere from 8 to 12 at dinner. A villa that sleeps 16 meant nobody had to double up when everyone was there at once. We put them in touch with the villa's concierge before they flew, and he arranged a cook and a helper for six of the dinners, planned around who would be at the table each night.
Months later they wrote to us that the chef was “par excellence” and that they had “a wonderful time with incredible memories.”

Frequently asked questions
Seven bedrooms is the rarest size to find in Italy. On the Amalfi Coast, I love Villa Bendis, which has perhaps the most stunning pergola overlooking the water. In Tuscany, Casa del Fattore is a villa we rent a lot. Time and time again, our guests have told us it was the best family trip of their lives. We have stayed there ourselves and know it well. Families love the shared volleyball and tennis court, it is just 10 minutes from the charming walled city of Lucca, and the concierge can plan activities for the children.
