15 Best Luxury & Boutique Hotels to Book in Italy - AFAR
"Perched on pine-covered slopes above the Ligurian Sea, this cliff-side luxury hotel occupies a pastel villa that was once a 16th-century monastery, offering 70 sunlit rooms with herringbone hardwood floors, marble baths and wrought-iron terraces. Guests can sip champagne on sunset cruises aboard the hotel’s Chris-Craft Corsair 36, dine on dishes like sea bream ceviche at La Terrazza, indulge in spa treatments such as a chamomile footbath, and use a shuttle to reach the sister property Splendido Mare in the Piazzetta for a more casual fishing-village–style pied-à-terre and buzzy restaurant." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
