Why Liguria

If you are looking for a Place in the Sun in Italy, Liguria is the right place:

West Liguria is famous for its unique climate (the mildest in Italy all year round).
The “Indice del clima”, a report by Il Sole 24 ore based on 10 different weather parameters (days of sun, days of rain, days of strong wind, humidity, etc) calculated over the period 2011 – 2021, has crowned the province of Imperia as "Best Climate in Italy" ranked #1, followed by Catania and then Pescara.

Liguria has the highest number of Blue Flag beaches in Italy. This means cleanliness of the water and environmental friendliness of coastal resorts. Blue Flags are international distinctions, created in 1987, with patronage and support from UNEP, the United Nations Environment Programme, and the World Tourism Organisation. Region Liguria is ranked #1 since 2009.

Here you get more than the sunshine - Liguria will makes you smile: Liguria's people are happy people, provide you with good Mediterranean food and the best climate in the world.

If  for instance, you settle near the town of San Remo, you will enjoy good food, sunshine, sandy beaches, and a wonderful climate, along with beautiful shops, charming cafes, a theatre, casino, and the sophisticated proximity to Monte Carlo with its racing circuit and elite lifestyle.

Nearby, Bordighera is renowned for its elegant seaside promenade, lush gardens, and impressive villas. It has been loved historically by artists, royalty, and discerning international residents attracted by its exclusive atmosphere and breathtaking sunsets.

Ospedaletti offers an intimate and peaceful setting, known for its calm environment and luxury villas with panoramic sea views. Its mild climate and tranquil pace of life make it a perfect choice for relaxation and quiet seaside living.

The city of Imperia is famed for its production of premium extra virgin olive oil, particularly the renowned Taggiasca olive. Imperia offers a charming historic center, vibrant marina, and welcoming community, making it ideal for year-round living.

Further along the coast, Alassio stands out with its elegant and long sandy beaches, refined boutiques, and the iconic "Muretto di Alassio," a wall signed by famous personalities. It combines lively summer tourism with charming winter tranquility, making it an ideal spot for both vacation homes and permanent residences.

The Italian Rivera has been the summer residence of European Royalty for centuries, they appreciated the advantages of a healthy climate long ago and this has not changed. Many of the old Palaces and Villas, once occupied only by one Royal family, have now been converted into apartments, with all the old charm and glamour, yet with modern living in mind. Beautiful parks and wonderful views abound.

The Riviera dei Fiori (Riviera of Flowers) is the land of colours, of sunshine and blue sky, and of everlasting springtime. Seaside resorts can odder you tourist and sports facilities together with interesting itineraries to the discovery of local history and traditions. Moving to the hinterland, you can visit several villages, such as Dolceacqua (with the ancient castle of the Doria family) or Vallebona, a village characterised by narrow carrugi (i.e., steep alleys which are typical of Liguria), artists' workshops, and frescoes that decorate its houses; while Apricale lies on a spur from where you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Maritime and Ligurian Alps. Sanremo can offer you its almost endless ways of entertainment, such as tourist attractions, sports facilities (golf, water sports, horse riding, tennis, cycling, trekking, skiing within an hour's drive), oenogastronomic itineraries, and renowned events that take place all year round: the Corso Fiorito (i.e., San Remo Flowers Carnival parade), the Italian Song Festival, the cycling Milano-San Remo, car rally races, and famous Regattas.

The nearest airport is Nice International Airport (France), just 45 minues away, with numerous daily flights to major cities in Europe, USA, UAE, and worldwide connections. In Italy, Genoa airport is about a one-hour drive while the private airport of Villanova "Clemente Panero" is just 25 min away. From the airports you can easily rent a car, take a taxi (Nice-Sanremo is approx 140 Euro) or a shared Shuttle (approx 50 Euro). Train/Bus services are very low cost, just takes longer.

Mountains diving into the sea; hills covered by olive groves and vineyards; well-known resorts along the coast; and lovely villages full of charm and history scattered throughout the hinterland: this is what awaits for you here...
