We have about 16 days this summer for an anniversary trip to Italy. We would like to divide our time between Tuscan wine country and somewhere on coast, perhaps with a day or two in Florence (thinking we'll fly from there).
That's really all the details we're sure of so far and would love recommendations.
Please and thank you.
The obvious places for the coast, would be the Cinque Terre, being close to Florence, or the Amalfi Coast, but they are obvious because they are popular and very crowded in the Summer. With some research though, you could probably find a lower key place, maybe on the Adriatic Coast that would be less crowded.
If you are looking to stay in the Chianti region, I can recommend two places.
My husband and I stayed here, and it was lovely, in the small town of Panzano: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/2278199
We stayed there while my SIL and BIL stayed at this winery/agriturismo, also minutes away from Panzano: http://www.panzanello.it/
The agriturismo was lovely, with a pool and wine tasting, of course. We would have stayed there as well, but it was booked. The apartment we rented nearby was spacious and very comfortable. The host was lovely as well.
Panzano is nicely located in Chianti.
Enjoy your trip and happy anniversary!
