"As if mainland Tuscany weren’t already blessed with beauty enough, there’s also Giglio Island, ten miles off the coast in the Tyrrhenian Sea — an island once known for its distinctive granite, and now probably better known for offering a slice of easy seaside Mediterranean living. That’s La Guardia Hotel’s specialty, of course — its junior suites open right out onto the beach, and most of its other rooms have sea views, many of them from second-floor balconies." - Tablet Hotels
