For those seeking a soulful escape by the sea, La Guardia Hotel invites you to slow down and savour the essence of Mediterranean island life. Set above an ancient granite cave on the pristine shores of Giglio Island, this design-forward retreat offers barefoot luxury in one of Italy’s most untouched coastal gems. With panoramic sea views, refined simplicity, and a deep commitment to sustainability, La Guardia is where contemporary elegance meets timeless tranquillity.
This is more than a hotel—it’s a tribute to the Mediterranean spirit. Inside, calming neutral tones, flowing lines, and tactile, rustic accents create a minimalist aesthetic that’s both energising and serene—just like the island itself. Thoughtfully designed by acclaimed international architects, the hotel honours its mid-century origins while embracing the textures, colours, and spirit of its Mediterranean surroundings.
Tucked at the end of Giglio Porto’s historic fishing village, La Guardia enjoys a privileged setting on a secluded sandy beach. From the hotel’s terraces and most rooms, guests are treated to sweeping views across the Tyrrhenian Sea, from Argentario to Talamone. Located within the UNESCO MAB Biosphere Reserve and the Tuscan Archipelago National Park, this romantic and authentic escape—easily reached yet blissfully remote—is best enjoyed between April and October.
The rooms and suites are a serene reflection of the sea, sky, and stone that surround them. Natural tones, custom-crafted furnishings, and panoramic views create a calming space that invites deep rest. Designed with understated elegance and attention to detail, each room feels like a modern coastal retreat—simple, airy, and deeply connected to the landscape.
Dining at La Guardia is a celebration of local flavour and Mediterranean simplicity. The restaurant’s menu draws inspiration from the culinary heritage of islands across the region—Capri, Salina, Pantelleria, and beyond—highlighting fresh, locally sourced ingredients from these unique terroirs. Enjoy a candlelit dinner on the terrace with sweeping sea views, paired with a curated selection of over 70 rare island wines for a truly sensorial dining experience.
Giglio may span just 20 square kilometres, but its beauty is boundless. At La Guardia, every stay is curated to help you explore its wonders—whether you're diving into the deep blue sea, climbing dramatic granite cliffs, or visiting ancient cliff-top vineyards. Wander the medieval lanes of Giglio Castello, still intact since the 13th century, or hike along hidden coastal trails. Adventure or relaxation, history or nature—this is a place to fall in love. Again and again.
