Cradling some of Italy's prettiest seascapes, Liguria has been enchanting sun seekers for centuries. It sits on the Italian Riviera, a ravishing slice of the Mediterranean known for postcard-perfect villages, terraced vineyards and sparkling sea views. There's a little bit of everything in this crescent-shaped slice of Italy, from sun-drenched beaches to lavish royal palaces. Whatever your style, you'll find a huge selection of Liguria vacation rentals strung along the coast. You can champion romance in the Cinque Terre, escape to upscale Portofino or enjoy a sophisticated city break in Genoa.
A gateway to the Italian Riviera, Genoa is Liguria's proud capital. The city is strewn with extravagant architecture, including the heritage-listed Palazzi dei Rolli. If you visit just one, make it Palazzo Reale, known for its terraced gardens, gleaming antiques and resplendent Hall of Mirrors. You can admire Italian masterpieces in the handsome Musei di Strada Nuova, peer into the imposing Genoa Cathedral and get lost in the winding cobblestone lanes of the Old City. Consider yourself a foodie? With well-equipped kitchens, Liguria vacation rentals make it easy to hit up Genoa's local markets and prepare your own Italian feasts.
Gracing the covers of countless travel brochures, the Cinque Terre is one of Italy's most storied destinations. It's made up of 5 impossibly pretty villages, each with its own unique charms. Cascading down the cliffsides, Manarola is eternally popular with couples and honeymooners. It's set among terraced vineyards and commands dazzling sea views. At sunset, walking hand in hand along the "Way of Love" coastal path is a rite of passage. Vernazza is another top choice, anchored by a yacht-filled harbor. Spend your days devouring fresh seafood and sipping vino at waterfront restaurants.
Summer brings high season to Liguria, when the region enjoys clear skies and temperatures that hover around the 80s. Liguria vacation rentals make the most of the sunshine, with sunny terraces, flower-filled gardens and ocean views. While the weather is gorgeous, places like the Cinque Terre can feel crowded in the summer. This makes spring and fall sweet spots for travelers in search of a laidback getaway. If you want Liguria all to yourself, winter can be a rewarding time to visit.
It may be small, but Liguria boasts some of Italy's most beautiful landscapes. The region sits on Italy's Mediterranean coast and is backed by the foothills of the Alps and the Apennines. Coastal scenery steals the spotlight, with rocky sea cliffs, pebbly beaches and aquamarine bays strung along the shoreline. Liguria is also prime vineyard territory, producing 8 DOC wines. Whether you prefer reds, whites, roses or sparklings, Liguria vacation rentals provide a dream setting for sunset tasting sessions.
