Hotel Paraggi, Santa Margherita Ligure

Set on the spectacular bay at Paraggi, less than a kilometre from Portofino, the Hotel Paraggi is an old villa in Santa Margherita Ligure. A most exclusive spot for a battery-recharging vacation on the Italian Mediterranean. This Santa Margherita Ligure hotel has been recently restored and, with its four star comforts, is furnished in a cosy, yet fresh and modern vein. You have superb views over the sparkling waters of the Ligurian Riviera, and the hotel has its own private beach. Each evening you can dine in the hotel restaurant, right on the beach.

Santa Margherita Ligure lies some 35km south east of the city of Genoa. This charming resort is set on a small inlet on the serpentine Ligurian coastline. This Tigullio area has grand old hotels, palm trees, and fine old villas with lush gardens and views onto the Mediterranean. A fun family town, it has watersports out on the bay. A bonus is that Santa Margherita is still a working fishing port - its soul hasn't been swallowed by tourism. Sights in the town include the Abbey (Abbazia della Cervara), the Basilica of St Margaret of Antioch (1658), the Villa Durazzo (16th century with 17th century gardens) and the Castle, built by Genoa in 1550 as a defence against the Saracens.

Rooms at this hotel in Santa Margherita Ligure are doubles, some with sea views, some with a terrace. All have air conditioning, minibar, telephone, television and a bathroom with a shower. The hotel has a 24-hour front desk, and the restaurant offers Ligurian and international dishes. There is a buffet breakfast, meeting rooms, car hire, currency exchange, bikes for hire and babysitting facilities.
