Versilia Golf Resort

Presents Tuscan golf in a more coastal

#Versilia#CoastalLuxury#Resort
The Club

Versilia Golf Resort presents Tuscan golf in a more coastal, relaxed and contemporary tone than the region's best-known inland classics. The course unfolds across tidy terrain close to the sea, where the apparent simplicity of the landscape gradually gives way to a more disciplined test, particularly in the management of wind and the reading of greens. The resort layer adds the lifestyle component that makes the destination attractive to high-end leisure travellers: rooms, clubhouse comfort, nearby beaches, Forte dei Marmi within easy reach and an overall feeling of a well-composed holiday. It may not be the most famous golf address in Tuscany, yet that is also part of its appeal. The luxury here is less performative and easier to enjoy. It is especially well suited to couples, longer weekends and trips where golf is meant to sit naturally alongside the sea, good restaurants and the social energy of Versilia.

Fonderia Versiliese: Bronzo dall'Alba

Pietrasanta, Lucca · 15 km

Pietrasanta is the world capital of marble and bronze sculpture: Botero, Mitoraj, and Takashi Murakami have all worked here in the foundries and marble workshops. The Fonderia Versiliese, the city's oldest, accepts private visits to the dawn pours — the moment when liquid bronze at 1,200°C is poured into sand moulds.

Insider Tip

Master founder Riccardo Lazzarini accepts guests at 5:30 AM when the furnace reaches pouring temperature: liquid bronze projects orange shadows on the walls and you smell the sand moulds burning. Wear closed shoes with rubber soles.

Wine

Tenuta Buonamico: Montecarlo Bianco Dimenticato

Cercatoia, Lucca · 18 km

Montecarlo DOC is one of Tuscany's forgotten denominations: a blend of Trebbiano, Semillon, and Roussanne that the Lucchesi have produced for 500 years. Tenuta Buonamico at Cercatoia produces the Cercatese — the Montecarlo Bianco Riserva — with barrique ageing developing the complexity of a white Bordeaux grand cru at a tenth of the price.

Insider Tip

Owner Ferro Bonacossi keeps bottles of his father's 1985 Cercatese in the villa cellar: he says that white wine at 35 years has chestnut honey and white truffle notes no Trebbiano should have. He opens it only by private booking.

WellnessPartner

Villa Roma Imperiale: la Spa della Versilia

Forte dei Marmi, Lucca · 12 km

Villa Roma Imperiale at Forte dei Marmi is Versilia's most discreet hotel: no signage, electric gate, 5,000 sq metre park. The spa, built in glass and Lasa stone, offers the Pietra e Salino ritual combining Cervia salt crystals with Apuan quartz. The indoor pool extends into the private garden with views of the Apuan Alps.

Insider Tip

The Notte di Luna ritual is reserved for full moon Mondays: the outdoor pool is lit only by moonlight reflected through the glass roof. Available May through September, maximum 2 guests at a time.
