Forte dei Marmi
Selected entries from the current guide for Forte dei Marmi.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Lux Lucis holds a Michelin star and sits atop the Principe Forte dei Marmi hotel, where a rooftop terrace frames views of the Versilian coast before dinner moves into a dining room fronted by an open kitchen. Chef Valentino Cassanelli weaves Emilian influences into a creative Italian menu, and a wine list organised by grape variety rather than region gives the pairing dimension unusual depth for a coastal resort table.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
A Michelin-starred institution on the Versilian coast, Lorenzo has anchored Forte dei Marmi's seafood dining tradition for decades. The menu reads like a discipline in restraint: grand raw platters, tableside mayonnaise, and Versilia-style pasta preparations draw a global clientele season after season. With consecutive appearances in La Liste's top restaurants and OAD's Classical Europe ranking, it occupies a distinct position in the Italian seafood canon.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
A Michelin-starred seafood address in Forte dei Marmi, Bistrot earns its single star through rigorous Tyrrhenian sourcing and a kitchen that handles wood-fired technique with as much discipline as it does raw ingredients. The wine cellar runs to nearly 2,000 labels, with notable depth in Champagne and Burgundy. At the €€€€ tier, it sits among the resort town's most serious dining commitments.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
La Magnolia holds a Michelin star inside the Hotel Byron, one of Forte dei Marmi's most established addresses. Chef Alberto Faccani's kitchen draws on both local Versilian produce and broader Italian references, producing technically precise plates with notably accomplished bread work. The chef's table requires advance planning; the room suits those who treat lunch as seriously as dinner.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Inside the St. Mauritius hotel on Via XX Settembre, Sciabola brings chef Alessandro Ferrarini's seafood-led cooking to one of Forte dei Marmi's quieter dining rooms. The menu runs both tasting and à la carte formats, with a Mediterranean focus on local catch alongside a handful of land-based options. Service is led by an experienced maître working with a young front-of-house team.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Book Osteria Del Mare for polished Versilian seafood, a sea-view veranda, and a wine-led meal that suits first-timers, couples, and celebration groups. It is a better fit for à la carte coastal Italian cooking than for diners chasing a tasting-menu format or experimental cuisine.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Book Trattoria 13 Gobbi for a lively, service-forward Tuscan dinner in Forte dei Marmi, especially with a group or celebration in mind. The draw is not tasting-menu precision; it is Florence-rooted à la carte cooking, a wine focus, and warm upscale-casual hospitality.

Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Unlike Forte dei Marmi's larger seafront hotels, Pensione America operates at a different register entirely: 17 rooms, adults only, and a deliberate nod to the mid-century Italian pensione tradition. A Leading Hotels of the World member since 2025, it sits a few blocks from the beach with a pool, garden, and terrace breakfast that make a strong case for the quieter end of the town's accommodation spectrum.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
A 28-room boutique hotel on the Versilia coast where Italian design, a Michelin-starred rooftop restaurant, and a private beach club form a coherent whole. Lux Lucis holds one Michelin star and one Michelin Key (2024), sommelier-in-room wine fridges signal the level of personalisation throughout, and a nearly 80-foot private yacht extends the property well beyond its address.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Grand Hotel Imperiale occupies a measured position in Forte dei Marmi's hotel hierarchy: 46 rooms, a Via Mazzini address that places it at the quiet end of the town's resort corridor, and a scale that keeps it well below the volume thresholds of the Versilia coast's larger resort properties. For summer visitors to Tuscany's most deliberately low-key stretch of coastline, it represents a considered mid-size option in a market that increasingly polarises between boutique and grand resort.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Hotel Byron occupies an Art Nouveau villa on Forte dei Marmi's most fashionable stretch of coast, with 47 rooms and suites across a range of categories and a Michelin-starred restaurant, La Magnolia, at its centre. It is the dining programme, anchored by that Michelin star, that sharpens Byron's identity within the town's competitive hotel market.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
A Michelin Selected property on the Versilian coast, The Magic Forte dei Marmi sits within one of Tuscany's most sought-after summer destinations. The address on Via Giuseppe Verdi places it close to Forte dei Marmi's pine-shaded centre, where the town's particular mix of old-money restraint and contemporary design sensibility has long set the tone for Tyrrhenian coastal hospitality.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
Villa Grey sits on the Lungomare Italico in Forte dei Marmi, selected by the Michelin Guide Hotels 2025, a recognition that places it among Italy's more coastal stays. The property occupies the quieter, villa-scaled end of the Versilian Riviera hotel market, where discretion and address matter as much as facilities.
Forte dei Marmi, Italy
A four-star villa superior in Forte dei Marmi's most sought-after Roma Imperiale quarter, set 200 metres from the beach within a private park planted with Mediterranean aromatics, bougainvillea, and stone pines. With 31 individually furnished rooms and a garden pool, it operates on a seasonal rhythm from Easter to October, positioning itself as a quiet residential retreat rather than a resort.
