01 · In a sentence

Hotel Due Mari in Sestri Levante, open JuneNovember.

Hotel Due Mari commands the Ligurian coastline at Sestri Levante, where the Tigullio Gulf spreads across the horizon and pastel-colored buildings cascade toward the Adriatic.

This 4-star hotel sits on the promontory separating two crescent beaches, offering unobstructed views of rocky coves and Mediterranean waters.

Stone terraces and garden spaces overlook the sea, creating natural stages for ceremonies and receptions framed by genuine coastal drama.

The staff are great. We were in a bind, our EpiTourean culinary tour was canceled. We didn’t know until we had arrived at the hotel. Cristina was fantastic. She took care of us. We appreciated the gesture and her kindness so much we decided to stay the week anyway. The breakfast buffet was delicious with a lot of variety.
