Charming B&B perched on a panoramic hilltop with an enchanting view of entire Gulf of Follonica, from the Island of Elba to the coast that leads to the Argentario peninsula in southern Tuscany. Surrounded by nature - yet at the seaside - it is truly the ideal place for a relaxing vacation.
Much more than a Bed and Breakfast. There is a very special atmosphere to experience at Relais Vedetta, a newly re-structured manor-house belonging to the Barberini family of Scarlino. Relais Vedetta's hospitality and discreet intimacy are perfectly balanced and every detail has been studied to make every guests' staying just perfect. Breathe the pure air of Maremma in genuine comfort of a prestigious Home dominating the sea.
At Relais Vedetta the histories of the Family members intermingle in the Suites and the common areas, in an ongoing theatre.
At a short distance from Maremma most beautiful beaches and surrounded by the cool shade trees of a century-old park. The lake-like swimming pool sits on the side of the hill facing the sea, and enjoys the sun from its first timid rays in the morning to when it slowly sets over the Island of Elba illuminating the surrounding sea with a stunning array of vibrant colours. Conceived to have the minimum environmental impact and build using a marble-dust and resin paste that extends beyond the basin itself creating a beach-like area. A corner is dedicated to hydromassages and relax.
Rooms
Each Suite, a world, a story!
Relais Vedetta has seven junior suites that are all different from one another.
Each room has the name of a special ancestor of Barberini family, and the interior design has been carefully studied to reflect their extraordinary personality. Some special belongings of these persons are used as accessories and furniture of the room.
Seven characters, seven worlds give life to the atmosphere of each junior suite.
Together with a king-size bed, each Junior Suite has a living corner with sofa or armchairs and is equipped with every comfort for the ideal stay: air-conditioning, wireless internet, satellite tv, Ipod station, safe and minibar.
