Known as the jet-setters' favorite playground, Portofino is also a quaint town with an Italian soul that never fails to enchant. With iconic colorful buildings lining its yacht-filled crescent-shaped port, a picturesque main square that screams dolce vita at every turn, and gorgeous crystalline waters, Portofino is the ideal place to spend that luxury vacation you've always dreamt of. However, if your idea of a relaxing escape doesn't entail dining next to the rich and famous, there's an alternative. A 10-minute drive from Portofino, Santa Margherita Ligure is equally elegant yet more laid-back, with an air of authenticity that's hard to resist.

No matter where you choose to stay between the two, you'll have the chance to explore the wonders of the Italian Riviera in the best possible way, while taking in the exclusive ambiance of one of the most high-end corners of Italy.
