CHARME AND RELAX IN FLORENCE AND TUSCANY - ITALY
HOTEL CLUB I PINI - HISTORIC HOME
 Versilia is a uniquely European type of resort area, a tranquil combination of sea, beauty, culture, history, nature and great food. The Hotel Club I Pini is a charming small hotel, where guests return faithfully year after year to enjoy warm family-type hospitality. Another artist who made his home, here was Galileo Chini. 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.
