Experience the sun-soaked coastline of Tuscany, where the interiors reflect a poetic commemoration to the Versilian coastline. With marble from Carrara that glistens like seashells under the sun, soft sand-hued tones that mirror golden shores and fluid architectural lines inspired by ocean waves, each detail tells a story; from the artwork sourced in Pietrasanta, to floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. Whether at the Chef’s fresh Crudo Counter or the sunlit terrace, guests are enveloped in an atmosphere that’s both full of character and exudes a serene city escape all in one.

At the helm, Executive Chef Marco Garfagnini, a native of Versilia himself, leads Vera’s culinary vision. His menu is deeply rooted in Tuscan tradition while embracing contemporary finesse - showcasing reimagined seafood classics, handmade pastas from the immersive Pasta Lab and story-led feasts at the Crudo Counter.

Menu highlights include the Chef Seafood Tower, Trenette di Pesce and Dentice Rosso, alongside regional favorites like the Tortellini Versilia and Spaghetti Alle Arselle. Each dish is carefully selected and expertly crafted fresh to order to reflect Versilian elegance, refined and reimagined.

Complementing the cuisine, the beverage program takes guests on a sensory journey through Tuscany’s cities — from the Viareggio, a layered cocktail inspired by the seaside carnival town; to the Barga, infused with cucumber, lemon oil and spicy bitters. The signature Vermouth trolley and curated Vermentino wine selection complete the experience, ensuring every sip tells a story of coastal Italy.

Just steps away, Vera by the Pool invites guests into a serene oasis where sunlight shimmers on the water, moments linger and the art of relaxation meets the joy of connection. From the sunbeds of Forte dei Marmi’s beach clubs, to alfresco Tuscan bites in the lounge, every detail at Vera by the Pool evokes the timeless rituals of Italy’s most refined riviera.

Guests can lounge poolside with cocktails and coastal bites that celebrate the region’s finest flavors — from Caviar Oscietra and Fritto Misto, to Focaccia Toscana to the grilled Branzino fired to order on the Robata; while sweet indulgences feature traditional favorites such as the homemade Tiramisu, ice creams and refreshing sorbets. With options for cocktails and mocktails, Vera by the Pool sets the tone for guests to relax in style.
