The Talamonaccio Tower occupies one of the most evocative and romantic settings in Italy. Surrounded by the turquoise Mediterranean sea on the Etruscan coast of Tuscany, it is very easy to understand why the property was recently featured in the blockbuster hit, the "Quantum of Solace."

In the film, James Bond arrives at the villa in style aboard a vintage Sunseeker speedboat and persuades Mathis to join him on his mission to Bolivia.

Anybody considering renting the villa should most certainly see the film, but in all honesty, this villa is much more beautiful in real life than as showcased in the film. 

The privately owned residence is a magnificent stone tower dating back to 1000 AD and was originally built by the Spanish to protect the mainland.  Now it is occupied by Cesare Mercia, whose family purchased the tower centuries ago and over the years have
carefully and tastefully restored and furnished the tower to host those who seek beauty, tranquility and escapism. 

There are 5 double bedrooms that occupy the bottom floor of the tower.  The adjacent villa can easily host 10 other couples and arrangements can always be made for families and friends with respect to the way beds are set up.

On the upper level of the tower, there is a large living room, spacious kitchen and bright dining room.  All rooms on the upper floor face the ocean and open on to the terrace. 

The terrace is enormous allowing for picturesque meals, gatherings and sun-bathing.  Although there is no pool on the property,  the beauty of the beach most certainly makes up for it. 

The beach is a short walk (30 meters) down from the tower, through Bougainville flowers, cacti and various typical Mediterranean vegetation.   At the base of the stairs visitors will find long stretches of coast and serene bays.

As far as activities go, from the tower, there are no shortage of things to do, from enjoying some of Italy's finest natural spas (Saturnia), to horseback riding along the coast or visiting the archipelago of Islands that you can see from the villa itself, a week here goes by quickly. 

Rome and Siena are only a short 1 hour drive away, the islands of the Tuscan Archipelago including Elba and Gillio, are only a half and hour. 

The town of Talmone in the short distance from the tower is a gem, still not very well known by the millions of tourists that come to Italy each year and the locals don't mind keeping it that way, although many are often content to see new faces who make the journey.
