Fishing boats bob in the harbour like colourful toys while locals sip espresso at cafés that haven't changed their recipes in generations. Villa Durazzo offers gardens with views that explain why Italian painters never ran out of inspiration. Take a ferry to glamorous Portofino where the yachts are bigger than some hotels. The Regional Natural Park of Portofino rewards hikers with Mediterranean vistas that seem almost deliberately theatrical. Paraggi Beach provides perfect swimming in waters so clear you can count fish without getting wet. After exploring Santa Margherita Ligure Castle, settle at a harbourside restaurant where seafood arrives having barely met the refrigerator. For a perfect day trip, the dramatic cliff-hugging villages of Cinque Terre await just up the coast.

"All remodeled very clean room and bathroom. We also had a small balcony. Every room had its own theme and name. Ours was Comic and nicely designed with painted wall with black and yellow with same color chairs. Staff were really nice and helpful. Breakfast was really good. The host/waiter which unfortunately I forgot his name was very nice and helpful. He would make you any kind of coffee drinks you would ask. Location was great, five minute walk to convenient store and less than 10 minutes walk to the center, all restaurants, ferry and shops. Reception closed at 8 pm but you enter the gate and the building with your key."
