Property Summary
Nestled on the breathtaking Costa degli Etruschi, known in English as the Coast of the Etruscans, Villa Corallina stands as one of the most remarkable vacation rental opportunities along the Tuscan coastline of Italy. Located in Marina di Bibbona, in the municipality of Bibbona, this extraordinary property dates back to 1920 and was constructed using perforated bricks and original Tuscan materials in an architectural style reminiscent of the renowned American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. In the post-war period, the villa served as the beach residence of the Marquises Ginori, and until the 1990s it functioned as a "Kinderheim," one of the many traditional summer camps for children. A meticulous restoration project carried out by the current owners in collaboration with architect Ponte of Genova resulted in the complete renovation of the original building while preserving the surrounding garden, which consists predominantly of Mediterranean maquis. The property extends across approximately 5 acres of lush grounds, offering an exceptional sense of privacy and tranquility. Guests benefit from private parking on the estate, a well-maintained yard that seamlessly blends natural Mediterranean vegetation with carefully tended outdoor spaces, and wireless internet connectivity throughout the property.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Villa Corallina are truly exceptional, reflecting both the natural beauty of the Tuscan coastline and the thoughtful stewardship of the current owners. The expansive park is composed entirely of Mediterranean maquis and a dense pine wood, maintained in excellent condition and offering a serene, natural atmosphere. Beneath the old oak trees in front of the house, a dedicated play area features a ping-pong table, providing entertainment for guests of all ages. A magnificent portico, ideal for leisurely lunches and romantic dinners, opens directly onto the beach and offers stunning views of the red sunsets over the sea. A wooden gate located just a few metres from the portico leads directly to the beach, where guests may set up sunbeds to enjoy the sun-filled days. 2 showers with hot water are available at the beach access point for added convenience. Both the sea-facing side and the pool side of the property are furnished with umbrellas, tables, and chairs, creating comfortable outdoor living areas throughout the estate. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring; therefore, the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
The oval-shaped, non-heated swimming pool is positioned on the north side of the villa, nestled within a natural hollow in the sand dunes that already existed on the site, encircled by an amphitheatre of juniper hedges. In keeping with the owners' deep respect for the environment, no trees were cut down during its construction. The pool measures 9 x 5 metres with a depth ranging from 1 to 1.90 metres, is purified with chlorine, and features a swimming upstream function. The surrounding pool area is equipped with a bar area, deckchairs, sunbeds, umbrellas, a shower with hot water, tables, and chairs. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October.

Villa Irma, located in Casciana Terme in the Pisan hills of Tuscany, has been recently renovated in every single detail, customising it with taste and charm, thanks to the use of prestigious materials in an optimal high-profile architectural research of the finishes complementary to the use of the villa. The three-floor structure evokes French Art Nouveau style with the dove grey and ivory colours of the external walls and the stylised rinceaux motifs for the windows and glass doors. Indoors, the novel design path is characterised by elegant forms, pure colours and contemporary objets d'art: all the rooms have been lightened with luxurious custom-made furniture whose design is inspired by refined modernity, the exclusive upholstery and accessories create a warm atmosphere bestowing on the villa high standards of quality and comfort. The clean lines are balanced by the prestigious Italian herringbone parquet flooring in the bedrooms and living areas; the bathrooms of minimalist design with king size showers and suspended bathroom fixtures are all in prestigious marble with original slabs from the respective extraction areas of the renowned Carrara quarries; in the kitchen, the total white decor is combined with furniture in white lacquered wood with a black alabaster worktop of contemporary lines. The decorative stuccos of the ceilings create dynamism and elegance in all the rooms in a duality of shapes that replicate the rectangular lines of the rooms and the circular shape of the lighting fixtures. The top floor consists of a living room with billiard table, bar and TV lounge in which the volterrane floor evokes the style of the large fireplace, and the white herringbone boiserie on the walls links with the slightly sloping ceiling. The villa is set in an Italian garden planted with lawn with large larches and cypresses that guarantee areas of natural shade, a large Baroque fountain with horses and shells to welcome us, stone statues integrating the appurtenances. The swimming pool lies in a secluded position, surrounded by a stone solarium, next to the romantic Art Nouveau gazebo in stone and wisteria.

Property Summary
Nestled in a secluded position among the gentle rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside south of Siena, Fonte Pinella is an exceptional vacation rental that invites you to experience total immersion in the serene beauty of rural Italy. This original Tuscan farmhouse in exposed stone, once an old rural residence, is located just 4 km from the historic town of Chiusi, placing you at the very heart of Etruscan civilisation while remaining within easy reach of some of the most celebrated destinations in central Italy. The property is distinguished by its harmonious rustic-style finishes, including terracotta and wooden floors, exposed ceiling beams, and wooden furnishings that lend an authentic and timeless character to every space. Set within approximately 5 hectares of arable land, Fonte Pinella offers generous outdoor living across a beautifully landscaped garden, a panoramic swimming pool, and multiple al fresco areas designed for relaxation and dining. Complimentary Wi-Fi keeps you connected throughout your stay, while dedicated private parking, accessed via an automatic entrance gate along a short drive, ensures complete convenience and peace of mind. The surrounding grounds, enclosed with low walls and wire mesh, provide a sense of total privacy and tranquillity that defines the spirit of this remarkable property.
Outdoors
The park surrounding Fonte Pinella is a landscape of extraordinary natural beauty, where a vast olive grove, an orchard, firs, oaks, and carefully tended flower beds frame a large expanse of lawn. Multiple outdoor living areas have been thoughtfully arranged throughout the garden to encourage relaxation and outdoor dining. A seating area is positioned just outside the main kitchen, while a dedicated dining area is situated in front of the annex kitchen, only a few steps from the swimming pool. The entire property is enclosed with low walls and wire mesh, ensuring privacy and security for all guests.
The non-heated swimming pool is one of the true highlights of Fonte Pinella. Positioned on one side of the garden and overlooking an open panoramic landscape, it is located approximately 30 m from the main house and 10 m from the annex, reached along a short flight of steps. The pool measures 6 x 12 m, with a depth ranging from 1.30 to 2.50 m, and features Roman steps and a diving board. Lined in PVC with a stone edge, it is equipped with internal lighting and a chlorine purification system. The large terracotta-paved solarium surrounding the pool is furnished with sunbeds, tables, umbrellas, and a hot and cold-water shower. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October. Please be aware that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colours of the garden grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival.
