The
Tombolo Talasso Resort
is a five stars Resort in the heart of the
Etruscan Riviera,
in Marina di Castagneto Carducci near Livorno. A few steps from the
sea and surrounded by four hectares of Mediterranean vegetation, it
perfectly combines elegance and nature. The structural design of the
building, rigorously symmetrical, is well integrated into the “tombolos”,
the typical sand moulds of this coast. Built in the 1930s, it was
refurbished without altering its original architecture: four wings
arranged to make a star (formerly the children’s dormitories) and a
central part facing the sea which housed the cafeteria. All around
the bright green of the lawn is interrupted, here and there, by pine
trees and evergreen oaks.
The brick-red driveway leading to the main entrance twists through the trees and lets us have a glimpse of the swimming pool, a sea-water lagoon surrounded by vegetation. On one side, set in the rocks and immersed in the water, there’s a small bar, La Baia dei Pini, while on the other a small waterfall. A little further off the lawn leads into the pinewood with its palm trees, cedars and junipers, offering silence, shade and peace. From the garden we enter into the large Hall furnished with style and taste; the dominant colors are the cream and beige of the leather sofas, the sheepskin armchairs and the plaited banana tree futons. Everything here, from the choice of colors to the large windows overlooking the sea, is intended to produce an effect of luminosity. At the Bar and Wine Bar you can enjoy some evening entertainment while sipping on a cocktail or on a glass of wine from a vast selection. Walking up the staircase from the Lobby we reach the Terrazza Mare. Fit with teak floors and wooden sofas, the terrace has the same rounded shape as the Hall. Leaning on the banister you have the impression of being on the deck of a cruise ship and are captivated by a multitude of colors: the blue of the sea, the green of the “tombolos” and the white of the beach umbrellas. The terrace also has a bar where you can have a drink while marveling at a beautiful sunset and breathing in the fresh sea breeze. Beyond the tombolis is the 200 meter private beach which guarantees each guest the pleasure of the sun and first-rate discretion. The Restaurant is a perfect example of style and sophistication. Perfect for ceremonies, weddings and official occasions, it can be reserved by both in-house and external guests.
