3 DAYS AT LA GUARDIA - DAY 2

I wake up to the sea.

Breakfast on the terrace at La Guardia, with nothing in front of me but an endless stretch of blue. Coffee tastes different here. Or maybe I’m just learning to take my time.

Today, we go looking for a beach you can only reach on foot.

The path to Le Caldane winds through the Mediterranean scrub, filled with the scent of wild herbs and the sound of cicadas. And then, suddenly, the sea appears between the trees.

A small beach, clear water, and that quiet satisfaction of having walked to get here.

Later, a few more trails. No particular rush, nowhere I really need to be. Just walking, swimming, stopping, breathing. Somehow, being surrounded by nature seems to recharge something I didn’t even know was running low.

Back at La Guardia, my room feels particularly welcoming. A long warm shower, bare feet, a little time to do absolutely nothing.

Tonight, though, we dress up.

Dinner is a special one: the fine dining experience created by Michelin-starred chef Alessandro Rossi.

As dinner begins, the lights of the little harbour come on one by one. The moon appears over the sea.

I look around.

Beauty seems to be everywhere tonight.

And I feel good.

Really, really good.

3 DAYS AT LA GUARDIA - DAY 1

The island appears slowly from the ferry. And then, as we enter the harbour, there it is: La Guardia, the first building you see from the sea. Watching over the port, just as its name suggests.

Finally here.

I open the door to my room. Light everywhere, the sea just outside, and small details that make me want to slow down and look around.

But not for too long. Swimsuit on, and off to the beach.

First stop: Le Cannelle. White sand, impossibly clear blue water, and that wonderful feeling that, for now, there is nowhere else I need to be.

Back at the hotel, a long warm shower. Soon I’ll be sitting on the terrace with a glass of chilled w**e in my hand, watching the evening settle over the island.

It’s only been a few hours.

And yet, somehow, it feels as if I left all my thoughts and worries back on the mainland.

I can almost see them from here, far away across the water.

For now, they can stay there.

I have a glass of w**e to finish.

End of August. Most of the season is behind us, and we can already feel that sense of nostalgia that comes when good things are naturally drawing to an end.
We get ready to welcome September, one of our favorite months. A lucky few will be invited at dawn for the vendemmia, the grape harvest that has already begun. We’ll probably find the time to meet some friends in a vineyard, now that the temperatures are cooling down, and share a glass of w**e. There will be a toast to all the hard work, and maybe a few funny stories about the past months on the island.

Every year, friendships are made, some love stories begin, and a little sense of adventure finds its way into our summer. The season never follows the same script. It is, however, an intense human experience — one that leaves us with memories we carrie with us.

A toast to summer, to holidays well spent, and to happy guests!

It’s early morning. Time for your first cup of coffee.
You step out onto the terrace and grab a slice of cake, still warm from the oven. Or you take your time at the yogurt bar, adding a little bit of this and a little bit of that.
You’re staying for three days, so you think you might save the scrambled eggs for tomorrow.
Then another cup of coffee, a quiet gaze out at the Mediterranean stretching before you.
And somehow, you just know it’s going to be a good morning.

This post is dedicated to La Guardia Team.

As a hotelier you can develop the best design in the world, but hospitality is about how people make you feel.

La Guardia Team not only works hard, but most importantly they deeply care about what they do. And they are kind. Not because it’s required for the job but because they really are very nice human beings.

In the words of one of our guests today “they are professional, kind, genuinely accomodating and full of great recommendations. The staff made all the difference and elevated our entire stay”.

We could not agree more.

Thank you , jt’s a pleasure working with you!

Fine dining at La Guardia is built on simple things done well.

A young team with a passion for cooking. Wild herbs and edible flowers gathered across the island. Vegetables picked fresh from our garden. Long hours in the kitchen, tasting, refining, and beginning again when needed. A shared belief that every dish can always be just a little better.

The news is out: fine dining is now an exciting new option in Giglio and the place to find it is La Guardia terrace.

As you know, we adore working with young talents and when chef Niccolo Anello introduced himself, we knew he was the right person for the job.
He is surprisingly young but has an impressive experience in Michelin star restaurants, and the right attitude to succeed. His last position was with his mentor, Michelin Star Chef Alessandro Rossi, who believed Niccolo’ was ready to start to write his own story as chef of La Guardia, and we could not agree more.

An equally young and passionate brigade supports him in this new challenge. The dishes are distinctive, beautifully presented and delicious. We can host only a few lucky guests every evening, remember to book in advance.

Vi aspettiamo!

In July, when the sand gets hot and the beaches more crowded, it’s time for a bit of adventure. Rent a bike, take a trail, explore one of the walking paths that crisscross the island.
You will find yourself totally alone, immersed in beauty, peace and serenity. Prepare yourself for a series of unforgettable dips.

Better than a day at the beach, there is only a sunset on the beach.
