Tuscany and Sardinia are dream destinations for sleep-filled holidays and here are two properties in which to indulge in sleep tourism, the new trend for 2023.
Two charming properties for restful breaks
Relaxation, a peaceful setting, and all the conditions necessary to enjoy a wonderfully restful and sleep-filled break is what you find in these two charming properties: Locanda in Tuscany, close to Siena, and Albero Capovolto near the stunning Costa Smeralda in Sardinia.
Country life, vineyards and lavender at Locanda in Tuscany
In the heart of the Val d'Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Locanda in Tuscany is an old farmhouse in Siena’s countryside between Pienza and the hot springs of Bagno Vignoni. It has been transformed into a charming country resort with nine rooms and suites for a country-life experience in the quietness and charm of a typical Tuscan setting. There is a superlative view of a soft, green sea with a thousand shades of gold and clay, offset by the unmistakable silhouette of Tuscany’s characteristic cypresses, vineyards, olive trees, wheat and lavender.
Wooden bed frames for a better quality of sleep
Escaping from everything and everyone at Locanda in Tuscany you can relax by the beautiful panoramic swimming pool. The rooms are of different types, and have beds made by local craftsmen without the use of metal, to allow a better quality of sleep. The wooden-framed bed frame, in fact, insulates against electromagnetic pollution and is not an energy conductor, encouraging a good rest. For a perfect sleep, guests can choose between linen or cotton sheets, and in the morning, there is background classical music in the breakfast room.
Understated charm and a saltwater pool at Albero Capovolto in Sardinia
Suspended between the sea and the Gallura countryside, between heaven and earth, a stone's throw from the Costa Smeralda's most beautiful beaches, this family home has been transformed into a charming country and sea boutique hotel, with seven rooms and suites that have direct access to the infinity pool.
Feather pillows and an infinity swimming pool
Albero Capovolto is a place of understated charm. The rooms have evocative names, such as Respiro (Breath) and Intimità (Intimity) which are profoundly linked to relaxation. For a truly satisfying rest the hypoallergenic double pillows are 100% feather, and air, light and the scents of nature invade every room. Which is why to facilitate good sleep it was decided not to put TVs in the rooms. The choreographic saltwater infinity pool in the centre of the beautiful Mediterranean garden has relaxing views of the surrounding countryside. And after a healthy night's rest, the rich buffet breakfast with local products is to be enjoyed unhurriedly.
