World Class Experiences
Waking up with sea view is a must when you are on the Tuscan Coast.
Praise
Winding pathways negotiate terraced gardens all the way down to the private beach, though many guests prefer the swimming pool, with its own dramatic cliffside perch — and the finest views just might be those from the terrace of the hotel’s flagship Ristorante Il Pellicano.
Guide Michelin, May 2024An Italian coastal classic, yet fresh as a popsicle, Il Pellicano continues to convince with a well-judged mix of retro glamour, glorious seafront location, and choreographed service.
Condé Nast Travaler, December 2018Like a fine Barolo, this iconic Italian hotel just gets better with age... most guests would agree that there's a lot to celebrate here - not least the stunning, saltwater swimming pool overlooking the Mediterranean.
Condé Nast Traveler (US), December 2016Opened in the 1960s, this spring-to-autumn haven of dolce vita luxury has always been a clubbish, word-of-mouth kind of place. Now under the dynamic management of designer Marie-Louise Sciò, the hotel has refined its service, become a Michelin-starred gourmet haven and added a spa without losing its insider cachet.
