Description
The B&B “Carla” concept derives from the wish for sharing my own house with travellers and tourists visiting the city, allowing them to stay in a comfortable, familiar place.
The B&B “Carla ” is a typically Tuscan house, roomy and cosy, divided into two floors: on the ground floor are the kitchen, the dining and living rooms and the veranda; on the first floor are the bedrooms and the terrace.
The B&B is surrounded by a wide garden, private parking lot and a small vegetable/fruit garden.
The B&B “Carla” is close to the centre of Pisa and it is easily reachable by FI-PI-LI, the airport and the train station.
Those who don’t have a car can make use of the bus stop, which is less than 200 metres from the B&B, take a walk or ask for our shuttle, bike services (without extra charge).

What to see, where to go
Pisa is world-wide famous for its Torre Pendente - the leaning tower - and Piazza dei Miracoli – the miracles square -, true wonders both to the tourists who first see them and to the inhabitants who live it everyday.
Anyway Pisa is much more than this, it is also a city rich in history, culture, renowned characters, famous names, living vestiges of gone eras. Medieval Pisa, Pisa as Repubblica Marinara that faced and fought the others repubbliche marinare of Genova, Venezia, Amalfi; Medicean Pisa subdued to Florence but steady in its own individuality. Traces of this can be found everywhere in the city, within reach for everyone: the case Torri, the majestic palaces along the lungarni – the Arno embankments -, the patrician residences, the Carovana Palace, which is the seat of the Scuola Normale, the Palace of the Widows, the Royal Palace, to name a few, the several churches which would all worth a visit, the typical squares, the narrow alleys so charming that take us back in time.
Pisa is an academic city comprising excellence universities such the Scuola Normale, the Scuola Superiore di Studi Sant’Anna, research centres including CNR, and many renowned hospitals; all of this contributes making Pisa world-famous.
Pisa also reflects onto its own environs: the beauty of Certosa di Calci, S. Piero a Grado church, S. Giuliano Terme, Vicopisano, the small villages surrounding it, its hills. All of this sure deserves a visit.
Pisa is a small town in size but so big in history and traditions that still live today through folk customs, such as “La Luminara di S. Ranieri”, “Il gioco del Ponte”, “Le regate Storiche” and many other events, exhibitions and visits that are planned every year.
If we move just a few kilometres, we get to other places, interesting both for their landscape and their culture, which are easy to reach by public transport. They are the perfect destination for one-day trips: Viareggio and Versilia, Torre del Lago, Lucca, Pietrasanta, Carrara marble quarries, Volterra, Vinci – Leonardo’s home town -, Garfagnana small villages, to name a few, and much more according to tourists’ interests.
Pisa is also its residents’ friendliness, their Tuscan warmth, their hospitality, their wish to broaden their horizons, to connect, to take care of themselves but also of the others. Our house reflects our personality, tastes, passions, life style and conveys it to everyone passing by.
This is the spirit that made us open the B&B "Carla" and we warmly welcome all our guests.

Carla and her mother are exceptionally kind and sympathetic people who are very willing to help guests. Warning: they do not take card payments. Is this a problem, no, because when helpfully driving you to or from the airport, they will go via a cash machine. Occasional aircraft noise is not a problem, because a low-flying aircraft will have flown away before the noise is an issue!

The only rating which I have marked at less than 10 is location; this cannot be helped as the property was originally a private house. In compensation Carla, the lady who runs the B&B not only picked us up from and returned us to the nearby Pisa airport but insisted on being as helpful as possible by running us to eating places, to city sites, and to the rail station when we went for day trips.
Carla speaks good English and makes her guests feel completely at home. Water, fruit and little snacks were provided, all complimentary and the rooms were serviced every day.
The only way to describe B&B Carla is superb. Staying there was undoubtedly the highlight of our holiday.

Carla is the sweetest host I’ve ever met.
She offers to pick you up from train station and dropped us off at airport saving us from taxi expense.
Her house is located in a safe gated neighborhood about 10 minutes driving from Pisa central station.
Best value in Pisa, Gracie Mille Carla! -Joe.

I stayed at B&B Carla for 2 nights. Carla took excellent care of me. She picked me up at the airport, my room was very clean and comfortable, she took me to the train station and picked me up after a full day of sight seeing and the breakfast selection and service was brilliant. Thank you dear Carla for a memorable stay.

Carla was a wonderful host. She collected us from the airport and dropped us at the railway station and collected us in the evening when we commuted to Florence. The continental breakfast was magnificent. I would recommend Carla’s B&B to anyone, it was first class. Mike Morley, Bristol. England.

Carla is amazing! First I wanted to stay 3 nights but she could not accommodate me for the 3rd night so she set me up with another B&B nearby.
Carla and Mario picked me up from the airport at 23:30 and gave me a lovely big room with standard small bathroom.
The next morning breakfast was big with variety of options. Carla new I plan to spent the day in Pisa so she gave me a map of Pisa with trails, best places to see etc.
Mario drove me to the city next to Piazza dei Miracoli, Carla asked me to call when I'm ready to go back so she can pick me up... amazing!
The next day it was the same with Lucca, big breakfast, map of Lucca, drove me to the train station and picked me at the en of the day. Then she took me to her friend B&B, help setup and came the next morning to pick me for breakfast at her place, drove me to the train station afterward, not without promising to pick me up when I'm back to take me to the airport.
Perfect service, always with a smile, tones of generosity and caring. Grazie Mille Carla.

This is a 5 star bed and breakfast. The interior of the house is lovely, and the room I stayed in was beautiful. Carla is a unique host: very generous and anxious to please. She not only provides beautiful accommodation, but she is genuinely concerned that you enjoy your stay. She is a mine of information about areas which tourist might want to visit.
As the accommodation is not central, she and her husband Mario provide a shuttle service, which amounts to a free taxi service don't abuse this please.
I highly recommend a stay in Carla's Bed and Breakfast and I guarantee it will be like no other you have experienced but in a very good way.

Notre charmante hôte Carla est venue nous chercher à la gare puis nous a ensuite emmené dans Pise et elle est revenue nous chercher en fin d'après-midi. Quel accueil incroyable et quelle gentillesse. Toujours à nos petits soins, très attentive à notre bien-être. Le soir, nous avons dîné dehors sur la terrasse, Carla nous a mis la table et une jolie nappe.
Le lendemain matin, elle s'est levé à 4 heures pour nous préparer notre petit-déjeuner et nous a emmené ensuite à l'aéroport. Incroyable ! On ne peut trouver mieux sur Pise.
Merci beaucoup Carla. Au plaisir de vous revoir un jour. Une adresse à ne pas manquer.

Fortissima la signora Carla, con la sua Punto rossa ti vuole accompagnare ovunque, e poi tornare a prendere, inutile cercare di farla desistere, fin troppo generosa, speriamo per la sua salute che si prenda meno a cuore gli ospiti.

Soggiorno fantastico! Mi sono sentito "a casa".
Il posto è molto accogliente. Ci sono tutte le comodità cui si ha bisogno.
La Signora Carla, spettacolare! Gentilissima, mi ha accompagnato in un sacco di posti. Al mio arrivo in aeroporto, è venuta a prendermi all'aeroporto di Pisa, nonostante l'orario (con tanto di aereo dirottato a Genova).
Non poteva mancare un abbraccio alla fine della mini-vacanza nel suo B&B. Tornerò sicuramente, magari l'anno prossimo. Consigliatissimo!

Cortesia, disponibilità, abbondanza in tutto, ambiente familiare e genuino.
La signora Carla è un'eccezionale padrona di casa, ha preteso addirittura di accompagnarci alle ore 22,00 con la propria auto in una pizzeria nelle vicinanze (dove tra l'altro la pizza era squisita!)..
Un breve e piacevolissimo pernottamento se dovessimo tornare a Pisa non avremo dubbi sulla nostra scelta!
Lo consigliamo vivamente non c'è sensazione più bella di viaggiare e sentirsi, nello stesso tempo, come a casa propria, liberi e coccolati.
