General

The steep and narrow rocky ledge near Portofino harbor is one of the jewels in Europe's crown and is among the most exclusive residential areas throughout Italy. On this grassy rock, we find the villa. Despite the breathtaking location, our villa is affordable and sleeps 11 people in 6 bedrooms (the price is referred to an occupancy of 10 people). Both the location and house are first class, through and through. Everything contained in the offer is worth every cent and more.

A walk brings you to the famous harbor of Portofino (20 minutes on foot, 10 minutes with a lift) - this fine harbor, where grand yachts lie at anchor, where VIPs stroll along the promenade, where exquisite fish restaurants and elegant designer shops decorate the picturesque bay. Despite the proximity of the colorful and lively harbor, the villa is tucked away and protected from the crowds: the house has private access to the sea and can hardly be seen from the road.

This gigantic rock, towering up from the water, is shared with a couple of other villas, a lighthouse and the famous church above Portofino. A private lift connects the harbor below with the upper footpath, leading to the lighthouse. This path is flanked by highly exclusive villas - including our house, which is about 300 m from the lift and is reached along a narrow path with archway and shady greenery.

Portofino has a small grocery store; the Santa Margherita grocery store can deliver goods to the villa (service at a charge). Although the house is situated high above the sea (20 m), the water is within walking distance: a private flight of 112 steep stone and wood steps leads down to a rocky platform. Just the place for sliding into the water to cool off after a sunbathe.
