THANKS TO THE FAMILY

The ancient family seat of Villa Gilda has been passed down through the generations and shines in its new incarnation as an elegant bed & breakfast. The welcoming hotel is a friends-and-family enterprise where Signora Gigliola a long-time friend of the owner, conjures up a delicious breakfast every morning with homemade jams and cakes, and regional delicacies. Guests are also invited to partake of a typical Tuscan evening meal, when time allows. Relax with a breath-taking view of the sea and coastal landscape. Surrounded by olive groves and fragrant, glowing yellow lemon trees, the Villa Gilda is close (around 5 km) to the wonderful sandy beaches of Riviera della Versilia.

The eight generous and comfortable suites are elegantly and stylishly furnished with all the amenities, a minibar, air conditioning, sat TV, and Wi-Fi, for a delightful stay.  Some feature a terrace or balcony as well. Take in the air in the luscious garden or cool off with a dip in the outdoor pool.

Guests who prefer to spend their time seaside instead of poolside will get more than their money’s worth at Glida Beachclub, one of the most beautiful and coolest beach clubs we have ever experienced. A true hot spot, or should we say Cool Spot? Guests get in free in May, June and September. So what are you waiting for?
