About The Experience
The way to describe this villa in Liguria is to imagine reading one of those books, the charming ones in which the characters curl up on the couch and listen to the sounds of the sea. You would be that character while staying at this vacation rental, which is actually a tower too! Of course you probably won’t want to spend all your time reading, as you’ll want to get to visit Portofino (just a short walk away!), but you should definitely expect to have a unique stay while at this self-catering accommodation!
Location Description
The property is located just a few minutes away by foot from Portofino, a village that is considered to be among the most beautiful Mediterranean ports on the Italian Riviera. Full of tree-lined cliffs and ocean views, Portofino, although small, features boutique shopping, delicious dining, and fun-filled water sport opportunities. The main site is the Castello Brown, a 16th century castle and museum situated above Portofino’s harbor. You’ll also find a small grocery store and pharmacy. The nearest supermarket is in Santa Margherita, which is two kilometers away. Day trip destinations can include Rapallo, Le Cinque Terre and La Spezia.
La Spezia: 86 km
Le Cinque Terre: 30 minutes by train
Rapallo: 9 km
Santa Margherita: 2 km
Portofino: A short walk
