Hotel La Bussola, Marina Di Massa

The Hotel La Bussola is in Ronchi - an area of Marina Di Massa on Tuscany's gorgeous Apuan-Versilian coastline. This is the Versilian Riviera, which stretches from Marina di Massa in the north to Lago Massaciuccoli in the south - a lovely seaboard of pine woods, rolling sand dunes and with the soaring mountains of the Alpi Apuane mountains to the rear. This is where the city dwellers of Lucca, Pisa and Florence have their holiday homes, and where thousands come to cool off and shade themselves from the sun beneath the pines.

Popular then, but not overcrowded. Set within a pinewood itself, this Marina di Massa hotel is a veritable oasis of tranquility. This hotel is family owned and run, and has been beautifully renovated. It lies within a 4000 square metre park, has a chlorine-free swimming pool and a roof terrace with spectacular vistas of the Apuan Alps. Rooms are single or double, all with minibar, bathroom, satellite TV, phone, air conditioning, hairdryer and safe. The hotel has a great restaurant with an internationally trained chef - he brings you the best of traditional Tuscan cuisine too. The superb fare is complemented by a great wine cellar, with the best of Tuscany and the world.

You may want to spend all your days on the beach, but there's much else besides during your stay at this lovely three-star Marina di Massa hotel. You can head up the coast to check out the extraordinary Cinque Terre and there are nearby resorts such as Forte dei Marmi, Lido di Camaiore and Viareggio. Or head inland to explore the Alps or the beautiful art cities of Lucca and Pisa.
