OVERVIEW

Villa Dafne’s interiors were designed by the architect and decorator owner, who has created a harmonious space throughout.

A fireplace anchors the living room, while the fully equipped kitchen opens onto the dining room. Floor-to-ceiling glass frames views of the surrounding landscape, drawing natural light deep into the interiors

In the bathrooms, lime-painted walls create a breathing surface, while earthy and powdery tones define the three bedrooms. Luxurious fabrics—carefully selected textiles that include linen, silk, and fine cotton—dress the beds and windows, lending each room its distinct character. The attention extends to the bathrooms, where one suite features a private sauna.

The 14 x 7-meter swimming pool stretches toward the Tuscan hills, bordered by gardens planted with native trees, aromatic herbs, and Mediterranean shrubs. Covered outdoor dining and lounge areas next to the pool with gas BBQ.

For those seeking accommodation for larger groups while maintaining privacy, Villa Cassiopea sits 500 meters away on the same estate. This separate residence can host up to 14 additional guests, offering families and friends the opportunity to gather on shared grounds while preserving individual space and autonomy.

The medieval village of Capalbio sits 8 km away, its ancient walls offering panoramic views before an evening in the village’s restaurants. Twenty minutes by car takes you to the coast—expansive sandy beaches where L’Ultima Spiaggia and La Dogana provide beachfront dining and drinks at sunset. The coastline here also draws kite-surfers and windsurfers to one of the region’s established water sports schools.
