Excellent gem tucked away up in the mountains. Be cautioned, it’s a bit of a narrow road that leads to the property. Amazing front desk staff, as well as a gentleman named Pana who helped us with our luggage. Beautiful views everywhere, room was spacious, modern and well appointed. Did not try the restaurant for dinner, breakfast was good. Pool staff was not super friendly and the menu options could be expanded a bit. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and will be back!

This hotel is my new personal paradise!! My husband and I visited for our honeymoon and the facilities, staff, and view exceeded my expectations. The kitchen went above and beyond to work around our dietary restrictions and the resort was blissfully quiet the entire time. The whole stay felt luxurious and romantic, and we definitely plan on coming back.

Just wrapped up an amazing 3-week European trip and this hotel was amazing! Every staff member was exceptional, making our stay memorable. Ending our trip here was a treat, though I wish we had extended our stay. The boat trip to Portofino is a must-do. Five stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It’s an adventure…not your typical 5-star, but still worth every star. Hidden away up a mountain, behind narrow winding roads, you find this ancient villa and monetary that’s been converted into a modern resort with two fine dining restaurants. Get a room with a view of the sea, and every sunset will transport you back to old Italy.

The property was great and so was the service by the staff. The staff was very attentive and paid close attention to every detail. The location was very hard to get with very narrow roads with space for one car only but this is typical for Italy. For a tourist that had not been to the location before I would probably stay somewhere closer to the town but if you are looking for relaxation this is the spot for you.

Villa Riviera was absolutely beautiful. Every room and suite is unique. The team is very attentive to their guests. We had a wonderful stay. We only had one dissapointment.....For those driving please be aware. The roads up to Villa Riviera are very narrow and difficult for two vehicles on the same road. All in all, the property is a dream. This is definitely the place for peace and serenity.
