Moving on to the center of this building there are gorgeous apartments divided in 3 historical property such as Terraces 1-2 and “Ghialla”.

It has 31 rooms and each of them has a different luxurious design. Toscana Resort offers many fun experiences, such as: 4 swimming pools, a 30-meter long one for training and a smaller one for children, an extraordinary 9.400-meter long golf course with 27 holes.
