Property Information

The views are of postcard quality, and they will remain forever in your

memories of Italy. This modern penthouse apartment occupies half of the seventh floor of a waterfront hotel and is serviced by its 24-hour reception desk. Penthouse Lungomare comes with its own furnished, private terrace overlooking the palm tree lined, seaside promenade and

bay of Rapallo.

Steps from restaurants, gelaterie and boutiques, Penthouse Lungomare is

in the most fashionable historic district of Rapallo. Included in the price

are summer air conditioning, winter heating and a mid week towel

change. Parking in a nearby lot is offered at a much reduced, daily rate.

Maid service and breakfast are available for an extra charge. The

apartment is smoke free and has Wi-Fi for laptops. Since one bedroom is

twice the size of the other and shares closet space, the layout is more

fitting for a family rather than two couples.

For those without a car, a supermarket is within 500 yards as are trains to

Genova and other coastal towns. In town is a funicular that whisks you up

to Montallegro and to the miraculous sanctuary of the Madonna. The

coastal views from this peak are pure joy.

Within 100 yards of the apartment, you can hop on a quick ferry to Santa

Margherita and Portofino or embark on a day long boat tour of the nearby

Cinque Terre — five fishing villages that are best seen from the sea.

Pebble beaches, a public pool, tennis, horseback riding, golf and boat

rentals all are nearby.

By car, Santa Margherita Ligure is 10 minutes away; trendy Portofino or

Chiavari, host to the largest antique market in Liguria on the second

weekend of each month: 15; Sestri Levante or Camogli: 20; Genova: 40;

Cinque Terre or Portovenere: 60; Pisa: 90; Milan, Turin or Florence: two

hours.

Additional Rate Information

Weekly rates range from $2,600 to $3,600.

Winter heating, summer air conditioning and a mid week towel change are

included.

Phone/data usage are payable on-site in Euro.
