Liguria
The best Villas in Liguria
Where the blue of the sea blends with the silver of the olive trees
Liguria is a region full of treasures from west to east, and some of its most incredible gems are on the sea. The Ligurian coast is high and jagged and hides villages set in or overlooking the sea. Coves and small fishing harbours spring up among the cliffs. But that’s not all, Liguria is also full of villages, beautiful towns, hiking trails and mountains to explore. The Ligurian Riviera is home to the famous and characteristic Cinque Terre, 5 lively fishing villages, as well as the elegant Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure, which are located on the east coast. The West Coast, or Riviera di Ponente, is home to Sanremo, an ancient resort with an early 20th century casino and a flowery promenade.
