Hermitage provides a refuge steeped in nature, allowing guests to revel in peaceful tranquility. The gardens are not mere decoration; they are living extensions of the resort’s ethos, shaping authentic experiences from morning strolls under the graceful olive trees to evenings of watching golden sunlight filter through palm fronds. The sparkling sea is only minutes away, and guests can opt to cycle along picturesque paths or utilize the hotel’s eco-friendly electric shuttle, adding a layer of charm to every outing, reflective of the quintessential Forte dei Marmi lifestyle.
Featuring 59 spacious rooms and suites designed for both short getaways and longer stays, each accommodation includes generous wardrobes and private terraces or verandas overlooking the lush gardens, ensuring guests have a direct connection to the natural beauty surrounding them. The interiors are styled in soft, organic tones inspired by the local landscape—sands, skies, and vivid greens—cultivating a calming atmosphere. Each morning and evening, guests can immerse themselves in the delightful sounds and scents of the garden, enhancing an ambiance of peace and well-being.
At the heart of the property lies Cabana Beach, a captivating oasis complete with idyllic pools and charming cabanas tucked among tropical greenery. These shaded havens invite guests to unwind and linger during the hottest parts of the day. The harmonious ambiance, characterized by gentle breezes and lovely surroundings, creates the perfect environment for relaxation, sunbathing, or simply soaking in the beauty of nature.
Dining experiences at Hermitage combine laid-back charm with elegant sophistication. Guests can indulge in everything from artisanal pizzas to seasonal, locally sourced dishes at Orto all’Hermitage Restaurant, where every meal is a celebration of freshness and regional flavors. The restaurant is surrounded by thriving lemon trees, fragrant herbs, and vibrant flowers, exemplifying Hermitage’s commitment to farm-to-table dining. The organic garden serves as a fundamental part of the culinary experience, hosting tastings and shared moments that foster connections among guests. As day transitions to night, the atmosphere shifts to one of sociable elegance, where slow sunsets, drinks at the Cabana Lounge Bar, and dinners beneath the pergola foster an inviting and refined dining experience.
Setting a new benchmark for family-friendly resorts, Hermitage ensures children have a dedicated space separate from adult relaxation areas. With a weekly program that includes exciting activities like Lego Lab, Circus Lab, and treasure hunts, parents can unwind knowing their children are engaged and entertained. The day concludes with delightful sunset rituals featuring gelato, music, and playful experiences designed just for kids, encouraging joyful connections.
Every aspect of Hermitage invites guests to savor the moment, connect with nature, and engage in meaningful relaxation. The beautifully designed gardens, terraces, and inviting interiors encourage leisurely exploration, while the closeness to the sea allows for an authentic Forte dei Marmi experience devoid of rush. Mornings may be spent cycling on shaded paths, afternoons lounging under cabanas, and evenings enjoying intimate garden moments. Every stay transforms into a curated series of experiences, merging leisure, intimacy, and personal freedom.
Hermitage Hotel & Resort transcends traditional hospitality, offering a unique oasis where privacy, nature, and genuine service harmonize. With its place in the Starhotels Collezione, the property celebrates Versilia’s rich legacy and the enchanting nature of Italian summers. Available for families, couples, and solo travelers, Hermitage serves as a rare escape that combines calm, connection, and timeless elegance, ensuring that every visit leaves a lasting impression of serenity and intimacy.
As Elisabetta Fabri, President and CEO of Starhotels, remarks, “Hermitage escapes traditional definitions: it is not simply a seaside hotel, but a nature-filled retreat. It is our first resort, and we wanted it to embody a space where guests can enjoy the privilege of slowing down, defined by an elegance that does not need to announce itself.”
