Villa Santa Margherita is a spacious villa which enjoys unrivalled views over the Bay of San Michele from its many balconies and terraces. The home is set within a quieter neighbourhood, just few kilometers away from the centre of a stunning town called Rapallo. Whether you wish to spend your days trekking through the rugged interior or enjoying an Aperol Spritz or two at a harbour-side bar in Portofino, this is a fantastic place to call home for your trip to Liguria.
This large villa is set over three floors and can accommodate ten guests in light and airy, en-suite bedrooms. The living spaces on the ground floor are the heart of the home and are made up of a living room with comfortable sofas, a dining room and a well-equipped kitchen. These rooms open out on to the main terrace and garden so you can make the most of the outdoor living spaces too for evening gatherings and drinks as the sun goes down.
The five lovely bedrooms are set over the first and second floors; there are four double-bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms offering either a bath or shower. There is also a vast master suite available with a living room and kitchenette of its own.
Outdoors there are a number of terraces and balconies which boast automated awnings and shutters to create much-needed shade on hot days. There are outdoor sofas, dining areas and sun loungers dotted around on the terraces, as well as a lawned garden with a refreshing private swimming pool.
The home enjoys a fabulous location, in walking distance to the nearest beach and few kilometers away from the centre of Rapallo. This town is a wonderful base for getting to know the Italian Riviera and is popular with locals and tourists alike. Historic buildings and attractions are plentiful here and you will not have to travel far to find a wine bar to sample the local wines. The sea front and the marina are backed by a wide promenade which is the ideal place for an afternoon stroll, looking out over the sea and watching the world go by. You can dine in the centre of Rapallo or choose a restaurant by the promenade for dinner with a view.
In addition to Rapallo, you are also close to some of the most fashionable towns and villages on the Riviera, such as Santa Margherita Ligure and Portofino. If you would like to spend the day visiting a busy city with a wealth of museums and galleries, you could visit the nearby Genoa.
