The farm mainly produces cereals, but around the house you can also enjoy the view of vineyards, olive groves and fruit trees. The owners will be happy to let you taste and buy their pure Sangiovese wine, extra virgin olive oil and other products of the farm, proudly handed down from father to daughter.
The house is surrounded by a large, well-kept garden, shaded and filled with flowers and plants. In the relaxation area, furnished with table and chairs, you can comfortably enjoy your meals in the open air. At the back of the house, in a sunny position, there is a swimming pool measuring 4.5x9m, 1.50m deep and completely fenced ( open from 15 May to 30 September) for the safety of your children.

Podere I Gigli is an old stone farmhouse, dating back to the early 1900s, which has recently been renovated and brought back to life while maintaining the structure, which still exudes ancient history and farming traditions. The grit floors and exposed beams have been preserved and together with the rustic furnishings and antiques and local crafts, personally and carefully chosen by the owner, make the house a truly ideal place for your holidays.
The owners who live next door, although discreet, will be a sure reference point for any need you may have. Podere i Gigli

• Very quiet area, without traffic.

There are about 350m of uphill street to reach the villa. It is walkable, if you are used to walking a bit.
By car, everything is reached easily in just a few minutes (supermarkets, town centre etc). There are many shops, supermarkets, also rather large ones close by. We can recommend a few places where you can park your car in the busiest or hottest days, so you can approach the city centre and avoid the uphill.
At the villa: plenty of parking space (up to 8 standard cars can fit).
The parking is in the private property, behind a gate.
One EV charging station (for 1 vehicle) is available in the garden (extra cost, to pay according to consumption if used).

We are:
- 1 km from nearest beach
- 1,3 km from the free beach
- 1,5 km from town centre (Diano Marina and San Bartolomeo al Mare)
- 0,5 km from an Agriturismo Restaurant
- 1 km from a very cozy Home Restaurant that I always suggest to my guests and is much appreciated.
- 0,8 km from a Padel centre, 5 fields, possibility to rent equipment and organize matches if you don’t have enough players.
Closest cafes, bakeries, and supermarket are about 1,2 km away (in Viale Kennedy).
Bring your trekking or MTB equipment! The area offers many hiking trails and bike friendly areas, in the hills and woods. Very panoramic and for all levels!

THE VILLA, THE GARDEN AND THE POOL:
The swimming pool and the outside area have been totally renovated to guarantee fun and relax.
This quality space is surrounded by nature and has a breath-taking sea-view.
The new infinity edged swimming pool is beautiful to look at, and the water is constantly filtered and controlled.
The white non-slip floor that surrounds the pool won’t burn your feet under the hot July and August sun!
The solarium area is shaded by two sail awnings and there are numerous sunbeds, beach-chairs, and a hammock at your disposal.
Swimming pool measures 10 meters by 5 (32 feet by 16), with roman steps.
The Jacuzzi hot tub, accommodating up to 6 people, is situated in a glass house with a motorised roof which is perfect for relaxing and gazing at the stars.
You can even control the coloured LED lights inside the pool, to create your own nightly lightshow.

POOL & JACUZZI:
• infinity edged swimming pool and sea view,
• constantly monitored crystal clear water,
• amazing nightly coloured lightshow by the pool,
• “mini-spa”: a large Jacuzzi in a modern glass structure,
• chromotherapy,
• wall-mounted iPad, connected to 6 Bose loudspeakers in the garden: music and wi-fi everywhere.
• Jacuzzi hot-tub included in rental price from April to October.

HEATED POOL, information about heating periods and prices:
- pool heating is included in rental price from April to mid-June.
- pool heating is not needed from mid-June to mid-September.
- pool heating is included in rental price from mid-September to the end of October.
- pool heating is not included in rental price from November to the end of March.
When pool heating is not included in rental price (from November to March), the cost of the service has to be agreed in advance, upon request of the client.
The pool heating will be activated only if technically possible and if there is enough time to heat up the pool before the arrival of guests.

THE NEW “MINI-SPA”: an experience that touches all your senses.
Imagine yourself spending a relaxing evening immersed in the warm water of the “Jacuzzi”.
Soft music playing and the coloured lights in the background, looking at the stars.
All these extra touches create an ideal romantic atmosphere, with a sea-view and the city lights below.
This is the atmosphere of the new “ViP mini-spa”!

The “mini-spa” has glass sliding doors, and a motorised roof that can be opened and closed with a click of the remote control.
The Jacuzzi can be used also in the winter (upon request, surcharge).
In summer, the temperature is kept at around 30°/32°. In colder season, the Jacuzzi can be heated up to 36°/38°.

Important: the maximum capacity of the Jacuzzi is 6 people at a time. Careful and respectful use of Jacuzzi is required, so that it won’t be damaged, and so that all guests are able to use it anytime.
The Jacuzzi is cleaned daily and, if misuse makes the hot-tub unusable, the water will need to be changed. However, in this case, it takes a long time to empty, refill and heat it. As a result, it will be unavailable for almost a day. All guests of the villa need to be able to enjoy the hot tub equally, so it's important to use it with care. Thanks for understanding!

There is an iPad at your disposal which allows you to transmit music to the garden and the “mini-spa”, thanks to the “Bose” outside music system. This system is remote controlled by guests permitting to activate or deactivate the areas that they desire.
You can use for free our “Apple Music” subscription, or log onto your favourite music streaming service.

Fast, free Wi-Fi unlimited everywhere.
Several hotspots guarantee full Wi-Fi coverage in the apartments and also in the garden.


OPTIONAL SERVICE, upon request, to be arranged and paid for separately:
You can have your dinner prepared by a personal professional Chef and “Maître Chocolatier”, who can also offer you Italian cooking courses: you will receive a certificate of participation upon completion! This is an excellent experience for groups and families.

For the babies, if needed (upon request, included): baby beds, high-chairs and changing table available.
