THE AREA

This property is spectacularly located on the peninsula of Portofino 15 minutes by foot from the central piazzetta, with its designer shops and seafood restaurants, and the harbour, with its elegant yachts. The Portofino area is ideal for relaxing, hiking, doing water sports and taking day trips to other areas of the Riviera or to Cinqueterre. Santa Margherita is 4 km away, Genoa is 30 minutes by highway, Florence 3 hours, Rome is 5 hours south and Milan is 2 hours north, and Cinqueterre is a perfect day trip including the train back and forth and walking from one village to the next.

The natural protected area of the peninsula of Portofino has been an attraction for centuries with its mild climate and high cliffs dropping into the sea. This area is very special with its happy mix of glamorous yet relaxed people, luxury villas, natural trails, village fairs, castle walks, yacht harbour and everywhere the turquoise sea. Anyone who stays in Portofino must know how to adapt to the rhythms of a city that is entirely for pedestrians. It is best to stay here without a car and use public transportation. Trains on the main rail line from Torino to Rome stop in nearby Rapallo, from where there is a bus to Portofino. The local train runs from Santa Margherita to the Cinqueterre and there is a bus from Santa Margherita to Portofino.

IMPORTANT
A private elevator connects the harbour with the pedestrian path that gets to the lighthouse, along this path are located the most exclusive villas: our rental is about 300 meters from the elevator.

Please be sure that guests understand that:

The villa is about 15 minutes (300 meters) walking to the centre of the village if you use the lift that connect the harbour to the walking path, and 20 minutes without the lift.

From the entrance gate to the house there is a stairway down (39 steps) and from the house to the solarium there 23 steps.

From the villa to the private rock swimming platform there are about 180 steps. From the platform it is possible to sunbathe and swim in the blue sea.


This villa is accessible only on foot; therefore it is not suitable to people with walking difficulties.
Porter service is available but has to be prearranged before.


Do not bring a car with you, there is no parking at or near the house (but if you do have a car, parking is available in a garage in town).
