Club i Pini -
Tuscany bed breakfast - Lido di Camaiore : At
Charming bed breakfast Club I Pini, each day starts with a hearty buffet breakfast. Afterwards,
you can stroll a short 200 yards to the broad sandy beach, which stretches for
miles in each direction. Club I Pini's private beach is furnished with all the
amenities you could desire. Or you might take a pleasant hike through the pine
forests that line the shore.
Another artist who made his home here was Galileo Chini. You may never
have heard of this Florentine, nor seen any of his works, but you have witnessed
the effects of his talent all over the country. In the early part of this century,
Chini was largely responsible for introducing the art nouveau style into Italy
(where it is usually referred to as "Liberty"). He founded a ceramics
factory that created colorful objects which soon made their way into thousands
of homes, he painted canvases that were hung in museums ranging from the Uffizi
to Rome's Modern Art Gallery, and he designed sets for his close friend Puccini.
Chini's stage designs for Turandot are the epitome of the Liberty style; perhaps
because of them he was asked to fresco the Royal Palace of the King of Siam. Chini
lived in the Orient for two years. When he returned to Italy he built a vacation
retreat in Versilia and called it Villa Chini. Its large sunny rooms, delightful
ornamentation and century-old park were the height of luxury. Today
the estate is a charming small bed breakfast where guests return faithfully year after
year to enjoy warm family-type hospitality. Many of Chini's paintings, frescoes
and decorations, such as a colorful stained-glass fruit basket, are displayed
throughout the common rooms where guests can congregate in several sitting areas.
His furniture and personal belongings are everywhere, including in the simple
guest rooms, all of which have private bathroom, telephone and television. Some
also have balconies overlooking the spectacular garden, whose towering trees and
profuse sweet-smelling flowers make it a tranquil oasis completely protected from
the bustling seaside resort town of Lido di Camaiore.
