Panorama: | "Surrounded by pine, olive, and palm trees, Portofino keeps the charm of a small fisher village, while offering sophistication and elegance. Portofino is the jewel of the Italian Riviera. The Splendido is situated in a 10-acre with luxurious tropical gardens, overhanging the bay of Portofino. Originally being a Benedictine convent of the 16th century, the count Baratta installed here his summer residence in the 19th century. Then, the residence was transformed into an elegant luxury hotel, which welcomes celebrities such as Bardot, Bogart and Madonna." |
