Castello Canevaro - Liguria
A historic coastal retreat in the Ligurian Riviera
Ins and outs: this majestic 17th-century castle perched on the rocky cliffs of Zoagli has been lovingly preserved and tastefully updated. With grand salons, elegant bedrooms, private terraces and direct access to the sea, it offers a rare blend of historical charm and Italian Riviera luxury, ideal for a quiet escape.
Location: nestled along the Italian Riviera between Portofino and Cinque Terre, the castle boasts sweeping views of the Ligurian Sea and is just a five-minute stroll from the heart of Zoagli village and a one-hour drive from Genoa airport.
Food and Drinks: each morning, guests are served a generous Italian breakfast in one of the sea-facing dining rooms or outside on the terrace. Expect fresh-baked focaccia, seasonal fruit, local cheeses, pastries and rich Ligurian coffee — a slow, delicious start to the day.
Care & Wellness: walking through the castle feels like stepping into a quiet piece of Italian history — centuries-old stone walls, vaulted ceilings and antique furnishings evoke a deep sense of time and place. The peaceful atmosphere, enhanced by the ever-present sound of the sea, invites reflection and gentle unwinding.
Unseen: from the castle's panoramic terrace, you can enjoy one of the most breathtaking sunset views on the Ligurian coast, where the sun sinks behind the mountains and melts into the sea.
