Splendido, a Belmond Hotel, is an irresistibly glamorous retreat in Portofino. Set in a former monastery overlooking the emerald bay, it combines lush gardens with fine Ligurian dining and wellness facilities.

It sprang to fame in the 1950s, when Hollywood stars such as Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton found sanctuary behind its wisteria-clad façade. Guests can enjoy a panoramic saltwater pool, tennis court, spa treatments and a children’s club or rent the hotel’s motorboat for nautical adventures.

Rooms and suites, many with balconies or terraces, reflect the vibrant palette of the Italian Riviera. Activities include sunset cruises, epicurean tastings in a local eco farm and exclusive tours of Genoa.
