We love this villa’s lovely setting with both an indoor and outdoor pool, beautiful style & decor and lovely green spaces.

This luxury, three-story villa has been recently and beautifully restored to offer guests the utmost comfort. It is located on the southern Maremma coast, a premium destination for those who enjoy the Tuscan countryside as well as the seashore. In fact, the long beautiful beaches are only fifteen minutes away by car. The villa offers complete privacy to its guests thanks to a well-tended surrounding garden (one hectare) and offers magnificent open views of the characteristic enchanting landscape. While staying at Villa Armonia, it is possible to rent boats at the marina nearby to explore the famous Tuscan coast, visit many prestigious vineyards and experience great wine tastings, play golf at the Argentario Golf Resort (a 30-minute drive), and, from the station which is only 6 miles away, take the train to Rome for a day-trip to the Eternal City.

This lovely area of Italy sits between Rome and Pisa, offering expansive, breathtaking views of the islands of Giglio and Elba. Highlights of the area include the unspoiled fishing village of Castiglione della Pescaia, endless stretches of dreamy sandy beaches and the medieval cobble-stoned village of Massa Marittima – lately becoming more and more popular and home to many international artists and socialites. Also worth a visit is the magical and mysterious city of Volterra, with its roots in three thousand years of history. We also strongly recommend visits to the towns of Populonia and Baratti, Suvereto, Campiglia Marittima, Castagneto Carducci, Bolgheri, and the chic harbor of Punta Ala. Boat rentals for cruising around the coast and private tours of the region’s many acclaimed wineries can be arranged through our concierge.
