Argentario Golf & Wellness Resort has joined Marriott International, and in doing so has becomes the first five-star venue in Italy to belong to Marriott’s golf portfolio.
Over the next few months, a series of restyling operations will lead the Argentario to join the exclusive Autograph Collection Hotels brand, a collection of independent hotels individually selected by Marriott International for their unique perspectives on design, craftsmanship and hospitality, and with exclusive and luxurious experiences. The 73-room property will get 14 new suites as part of the restyling.
Argentario, which is located in in Porto Ercole, Tuscany, is also now a member of Marriott Bonvoy, a loyalty program that allows all travellers to collect points and transform them into benefits, free stays and much more.
“For over 15 years, the Argentario Resort has played a vital role in developing the Maremma region, promoting sports and outdoor activities, introducing striking contemporary design and providing authentic experiences off the beaten track in this unspoilt pocket of Tuscany,” commented Augusto Orsini, owner of the Argentario Golf & Wellness Resort.
“The spirit of the Autograph Collection brand fits perfectly with our history and philosophy. Moreover, by linking up with Autograph Collection group of hotels, our Resort will have access to the international distribution channels of the Marriott brand.
“This partnership will not just give strong visibility and increased profile to the Resort but also to the Monte Argentario promontory and the Maremma region which will have an important impact both economically and from a local employment point of view.”
