Holiday houses & holiday apartments Riviera di Ponente

Baedeker Allianz Travel Guide - Italy (2010), page 126

The authors Dr. Bernhard Abend and Anja Schliebitz give an impression of the country:
“Italy is not just a country – Italy is an attitude towards life. The country and its inhabitants represent a scale of different emotions that range from yearning for care-free life to an enjoyment of chaos and also include a thirst for knowledge or culinary cravings.”

Not only water rats and those who enjoy water sports will love Liguria but also people who enjoy the sophisticated lifestyle and shopping will find this area to their taste.
The bathing resorts can look back on a 150 year long tradition. This is not only reflected in the well kept buildings in Art Nouveau style but there is a perfect infrastructure available for the guests. The well kept beaches are mostly lined by palm-fringed promenades which invite you to go on a nice stroll. Usually it is just a short walk from the promenade to more shaded alleys of the respective village with bars, restaurants, boutiques and sights. On the Riviera di Ponenete in the east and the Riviera di Levante in the south east noble bathing resorts line up next to each other like pearls on a string. Particularly the coastal towns of Portofino, Santa Magherita Ligure and Sestri Levante are worth visiting. Equally one should not miss out on some of the most glamorous towns of the Riviera whilst staying in this region. Genoa impresses with its old churches and palazzo while San Remo captivates especially with its Art Nouveau charm and large beach promenade.
