Find out more about Italian Riviera

Italian Riviera and its attractions for beach lovers

The Italian Riviera, particularly the vibrant town of Portofino, offers travelers a breathtaking blend of stunning beaches and luxurious accommodations. Sun-soaked afternoons can be spent at Paraggi Beach, known for its crystal-clear waters and picturesque surroundings, making it perfect for families to unwind and enjoy water sports. Just a short boat ride away, the charming village of Cinque Terre beckons with its colorful cliffside villages and hiking trails that promise unforgettable views of the Mediterranean coastline. For a more tranquil experience, the sandy shores of Santa Margherita Ligure provide a family-friendly atmosphere with plenty of beach clubs offering sun loungers and attentive service. Beyond the beach, the region's rich culinary scene, highlighted by fresh seafood and local wines, creates delightful dining experiences after a day of sun and surf. Staying in luxurious hotels such as the Splendido Mare in Portofino allows to indulge in comfort while being steps away from the beach, where they can enjoy personalized service and stunning sea views. The Italian Riviera truly encapsulates a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, making it an extraordinary choice for travelers.

"Hotel Bristol Palace, Genoa — A Beautiful, Central Stay with Old-World Charm We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Bristol Palace in Genoa. The location is outstanding—right in the heart of the city and within easy walking distance of the historic center, shops, restaurants, and major sights. It made exploring Genoa effortless. The hotel itself is elegant and full of character. The classic interiors, grand staircase, and beautifully maintained public spaces give it a genuinely special atmosphere that feels far more memorable than a typical modern hotel. Our room was comfortable, clean, and spacious, and the staff were consistently friendly, professional, and helpful with recommendations. Breakfast was excellent, with a good variety of options, and the on-site restaurant was a pleasant bonus. Valet parking was also convenient for a central Genoa hotel. If you want a well-located, charming, and comfortable base for exploring Genoa, Hotel Bristol Palace is an easy recommendation. We would happily stay here again. Alfred Hitchcock was right."

Excelsior Palace Portofino Coast

Excelsior Palace Portofino Coast

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel is a grand hotel built with other grand hotels throught Europe at the turn of the 20th century with the relatively new railroad providing comfortable "speedy" travel compared to ships and horse drawn carriages. The hotel keeps its historic charm with its architecture, antiques and paintings throughout but has been recently updated with all modern amenities. The staff is very professional and there is excellent room cleaning. The hotel has a commanding view of the Portofino Coast from Rapallo to Portofino and South towards Sestri Levante that one of the best in Italy. The Beach Club is right on the water with a heated infinity pool and spa. (Similiar to Santa Caterina in Amalfi and much nicer than the crowded ones in Capri.) It is a short pretty walk by the marina to Rapallo that is a vibrant Italian town. Nearby Portofino used to be a beautiful fishing village but gets overwhelmed with tourists and cruise ships. Rapallo has kept itself more authentic with more Italians than foreigners. We stayed here 3 times this year and plan to return."
