Tosco's word
At €598 a night, Residenza Santa Maria In Borraccia is for those seeking a short, refined stay in a period building, with a sea view and an Etruscan necropolis just steps away, and who accept paying a premium for the unspecified absence of air conditioning. For €276, Essence Maremma Toscana - Borgo Magliano Resort offers three pools, a restaurant and air conditioning, ideal for a family or a controlled budget, even if it means sacrificing the charm of a historic residence. The price gap is clear, but both remain in the countryside: choose the first for the soul of the place, the second for practical comfort and savings.
