LA ROQQA: A Contemporary Tuscan Retreat Overlooking Porto Ercole’s Coastline
LA ROQQA is seasonal, welcoming guests from April to November.
55 Rooms | 2 Restaurants | 1 Rooftop Bar
Perched on a hillside overlooking Porto Ercole, LA ROQQA, meaning “The Fortress,” is in the southernmost part of Tuscany. Straddling the border of Lazio and Tuscany, this boutique hotel occupies a privileged vantage point with sweeping views of the sea and echoes of the region’s storied past.
All 55 rooms offer balconies and terraces, with options ranging from intimate 20-square-meter rooms to a sprawling 310-square-meter penthouse suite with three bedrooms and panoramic views. Each floor is centered around a specific color: Terra di Siena, reflecting the typical hue of Porto Ercole’s buildings; green, to complement the surrounding vegetation; and blue, to mirror the sea of Argentario. The suites feature soothing sandy tones and splash of colorful furniture.
For the interiors, LA ROQQA collaborates with artisans from the Michelangelo Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to celebrating and preserving Italian craftsmanship while supporting emerging creatives. Their artworks are showcased and offered for sale in the hotel’s shared spaces.
