Tuscany Vacation Villas

Do you want to stay where centuries ago there was an ancient Etruscan city? Choose one of our villas in Populonia along the Etruscan Coast. Below you can find the best deals on villas for rent in Populonia with pictures, descriptions and prices.

Populonia is close to Piombino and overlooks the coast. Centuries before Christ, the Etruscan civilization settled in these territories and today in the Archaeological Park of Baratti and Populonia you can see the remains of important Etruscan necropolis as the necropolis of San Cerbone and the Necropolis of the Caves. The Gulf of Baratti joins Baratti to Populonia offering lovely beaches. Populonia is one of the most important Etruscan archaeological sites in Italy but its beauty does not end in the archaeological park. The historic center of the city in fact preserves the medieval walls that were built to protect the city from attacks by pirates who came from the sea. The Fortress of Populonia was built in the fifteenth century. Stroll along the lanes will be a pleasant experience for you, your family and your friends. From the hill you can also enjoy an excellent panorama.

Among the events in Populonia we mention the evocative 'Luminaria di San Cerbone' in the archaeological park, and for those who enjoy walking, geological or archaeological hiking that take place during the spring, summer and autumn in order to discover the wonders and historical and natural richness of this territory. Lovers of good food will be pleased to participate in the 'Grigliata di St. John' and the 'Oggetti e sapori medievali in cucina' (Objects and medieval flavors in the kitchen) in the month of June.
