A Hotel for all the family. This gracious hotel owned by the “Tixe” family, placed in elegant surroundings along a beach-front atmosphere which opens the Riviera of Ponente. This luxurious building was built in the year 1890 and was originally a villa belonging to a Lord of Arenzano. It then became the property of a noble family from Genoa. The environment is excellent, refined and very relaxing!
Since this resort village is on the steep slopes of these high coastal mountains, just before they enter the sea, the beach is stony and not ideal for those wishing to spend a few days lying on a sandy beach. However, there are sandy beaches just 10 minutes away on the local train. This seaside break is more suited to those who want to stay by the sea, and perhaps visit Genoa (just 20 minutes away) and explore more of the seaside villages along this rugged and very picturesque stretch of the Ligurian coast.
We suggest the following as things to do during your stay; - A day in the sandy beach resort of Varazze just 10 minutes away by train. - A day in Genoa for shopping and the historic port with restaurants and cafes. - During summer months, we thoroughly recommend a full day boat trip along the coast to Portofino where you'll have half a day to relax and swim before taking the boat back. - A full day cycle ride along the coast following the old railway line.
