Overview

Unspoilt beaches fringed with dunes are backed by hillsides covered in Mediterranean scrub and olive groves, crested by charming hill-top villages. The reclaimed flatlands where cattle used to roam herded by the local cowboys have today largely been given over to well-husbanded vineyards yielding some of the most prestigious vintages in Italy (Sassicaia, Ornellaia). These are the surroundings of Villa Tombolino, an elegant beach house with private access to the beach.
The villa was fully refurbished to a very high decorative standard in 2008 and is a marvel of modern technology with computer controlled air conditioning, heating and lighting and many other conveniences. The house develops over three floors, each bedroom has its own bathroom. You will love the huge teak-floored terrace with a pine tree growing through it to the rear of the villa, equipped with comfortable chairs, sofas, loungers and an outside dining table.
The beach is reached through a pine grove belonging to the estate. In the dunes behind the beach stands a cabana for picknicks, with table and sund beds, and a shower. The housekeeper can prepare the picknick hampers while the caretaker will carry them to the beach.
Standing in an unspoilt tract of typical Tuscan seaside pine forest, this villa is just perfect for a great family holiday.

Guest reviews

I am delighted to report that our stay at Villa Tombolino could not have been better! It exceeded our expectations in every possible way. From our arrival, where we were greeted by Isabella and Niccolo Pandolfini, right through our departure, it was perfect in every way. The Pandolfini's son, Filippo, was also there, and he provided wonderful assistance throughout our stay, as did Isabella. And the cook was marvelous as well. Our grandchildren fell in love with her and wanted her home-made pizza at every meal. We thought that not having a pool might be a problem due principally to the age of the children; and Filippo made arrangements for us to use a pool a short distance away. It was never an issue, however, as the children loved the sea. We never used the pool. Villa Tombolino was the perfect location for our family holiday because of it's overall size, array of bedrooms/bathrooms and large living space, both indoor and outdoor. We also had the benefit of perfect weather.
