Offering a garden and city view, Sabini Rentals - Affittacamere is located in Santa Margherita Ligure, 1.1 km from Bagni Rosa Beach and 1.4 km from Spiaggia Minaglia. The property features mountain and garden views, and is 400 metres from Santa Margherita Ligure Beach. Staff on-site can arrange a shuttle service.

The place is very nice, clean and near city center. I was expecting one room but instead we got 2 communicating rooms. My daughter and I had plenty of space. Both Giancarlo and his sister were really nice and welcoming! They gave us a lot of tips abt where to dine and what places to visit. Santa Margherita Ligure is a beautiful place to stay. From here is very easy to take to train to Rapallo, the bus to Portofino and the ferry to San Fruttuoso beach. If you're in a fair shape you can walk to both Rapallo and Portofino - the walk is lovely.

    An experience to remember. The whole city was booked by a Uber rich Indian couple for their wedding celebration. All night the crew built a stage for the concert where Andrea Bocelli performed. The place is so central, that you open up the window and voilá ! The whole Portofino is in the palm of your hand! The locals are courteous and vivacious. Would absolutely love to return!

    Carlotta was a great host, very kind and helpful. The location is superb, in the middle of beautiful nature, and the distance to the infrastructure is no problem at all, since she was available to provide transports when needed. Breakfast was great too. An absolute recommendation!

    Carlotta and Edoardo are great hosts, kind and attentionate. The location is great and it was so nice having breakfast (with fresh products!) overlooking the Portofino bay. Great view and calm surroundings. Its nice to be a bit away from the intense trafic of Portofino and the searesorts, and be able to go there as you wish. We recommend for a week-end or a full week !
