Three new apartments for a dream vacation, in a modern villa. A peaceful place, surrounded by lush nature, far from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The villa offers a swimming pool, a large 6-seat Jacuzzi, garden, and an incredible view of the Ligurian sea. Located 50 meters above sea level, and only 5 minutes by car from the beach, the villa is surrounded by olive trees, flowers and plants, creating a typical Mediterranean garden. The pool, with panoramic sea-view, is on the garden plateau (in Northern Italy, “il Poggiolo” means “the balcony”). “Villa il Poggiolo” is perfect for your Italian holidays: sun, swimming, sunbathing, relax and fun with family and friends.
LOCATION: Italy, Liguria region. • Italian “Riviera dei Fiori” = riviera of flowers: our delightful summer climate and mild winters makes of Diano Marina an ideal holiday destination all year long. • The villa is slightly on a hill, in an area called “Monade”, one of the most renowned areas of Diano Marina, with an outstanding sea-view over the Gulf. Still, we are close to the beach (nearest beach is 1 km away). • The property faces south and is embraced by the sun all day long. • Very quiet area, without traffic.
There are about 350m of uphill street to reach the villa. It is walkable, if you are used to walking a bit. By car, everything is reached easily in just a few minutes (supermarkets, town centre etc). There are many shops, supermarkets, also rather large ones close by. We can recommend a few places where you can park your car in the busiest or hottest days, so you can approach the city centre and avoid the uphill. At the villa: plenty of parking space (up to 8 standard cars can fit). The parking is in the private property, behind a gate. One EV charging station (for 1 vehicle) is available in the garden (extra cost, to pay according to consumption if used).
We are: - 1 km from nearest beach - 1,3 km from the free beach - 1,5 km from town centre (Diano Marina and San Bartolomeo al Mare) - 0,5 km from an Agriturismo Restaurant - 1 km from a very cozy Home Restaurant that I always suggest to my guests and is much appreciated. - 0,8 km from a Padel centre, 5 fields, possibility to rent equipment and organize matches if you don’t have enough players. Closest cafes, bakeries, and supermarket are about 1,2 km away (in Viale Kennedy). Bring your trekking or MTB equipment! The area offers many hiking trails and bike friendly areas, in the hills and woods. Very panoramic and for all levels!
THE VILLA, THE GARDEN AND THE POOL: The swimming pool and the outside area have been totally renovated to guarantee fun and relax. This quality space is surrounded by nature and has a breath-taking sea-view. The new infinity edged swimming pool is beautiful to look at, and the water is constantly filtered and controlled. The white non-slip floor that surrounds the pool won’t burn your feet under the hot July and August sun! The solarium area is shaded by two sail awnings and there are numerous sunbeds, beach-chairs, and a hammock at your disposal. Swimming pool measures 10 meters by 5 (32 feet by 16), with roman steps. The Jacuzzi hot tub, accommodating up to 6 people, is situated in a glass house with a motorised roof which is perfect for relaxing and gazing at the stars. You can even control the coloured LED lights inside the pool, to create your own nightly lightshow.
POOL & JACUZZI: • infinity edged swimming pool and sea view, • constantly monitored crystal clear water, • amazing nightly coloured lightshow by the pool, • “mini-spa”: a large Jacuzzi in a modern glass structure, • chromotherapy, • wall-mounted iPad, connected to 6 Bose loudspeakers in the garden: music and wi-fi everywhere. • Jacuzzi hot-tub included in rental price from April to October.
HEATED POOL, information about heating periods and prices: - pool heating is included in rental price from April to mid-June. - pool heating is not needed from mid-June to mid-September. - pool heating is included in rental price from mid-September to the end of October. - pool heating is not included in rental price from November to the end of March. When pool heating is not included in rental price (from November to March), the cost of the service has to be agreed in advance, upon request of the client. The pool heating will be activated only if technically possible and if there is enough time to heat up the pool before the arrival of guests.
THE NEW “MINI-SPA”: an experience that touches all your senses. Imagine yourself spending a relaxing evening immersed in the warm water of the “Jacuzzi”. Soft music playing and the coloured lights in the background, looking at the stars. All these extra touches create an ideal romantic atmosphere, with a sea-view and the city lights below. This is the atmosphere of the new “ViP mini-spa”!
The “mini-spa” has glass sliding doors, and a motorised roof that can be opened and closed with a click of the remote control. The Jacuzzi can be used also in the winter (upon request, surcharge). In summer, the temperature is kept at around 30°/32°. In colder season, the Jacuzzi can be heated up to 36°/38°.
Important: the maximum capacity of the Jacuzzi is 6 people at a time. Careful and respectful use of Jacuzzi is required, so that it won’t be damaged, and so that all guests are able to use it anytime. The Jacuzzi is cleaned daily and, if misuse makes the hot-tub unusable, the water will need to be changed. However, in this case, it takes a long time to empty, refill and heat it. As a result, it will be unavailable for almost a day.
There is an iPad at your disposal which allows you to transmit music to the garden and the “mini-spa”, thanks to the “Bose” outside music system. This system is remote controlled by guests permitting to activate or deactivate the areas that they desire. You can use for free our “Apple Music” subscription, or log onto your favourite music streaming service.
Fast, free Wi-Fi unlimited everywhere. Several hotspots guarantee full Wi-Fi coverage in the apartments and also in the garden.
COMMON AREAS: By renting the villa (3 apartments), the garden, the tennis table, the wood burning oven, the BBQ, the swimming pool, and the “mini-spa” are not to be shared with other guests, therefore you'll have the exclusive use of the facilities. However, a respectful behaviour is required, as the villa is in a quiet residential area with surrounding properties. Parties and events are forbidden. Access to the property is possible only for the registered guests. The villa is intended as a solution for quiet and relaxing holidays, with family and friends.
The villa is for exclusive use, but please note that the owner comes everyday at the property, to take care of garden, and to clean pool and Jacuzzi, to make sure all guests can enjoy the facilities.
OPTIONAL SERVICE, upon request, to be arranged and paid for separately: You can have your dinner prepared by a personal professional Chef and “Maître Chocolatier”, who can also offer you Italian cooking courses: you will receive a certificate of participation upon completion! This is an excellent experience for groups and families.
For the babies, if needed (upon request, included): cots, high-chairs and changing table available.

As good as it gets. We stay in Italy at least once a year and usually in an appartment in Liguria. This time we brought our brother-in-law, his wife and their children (1,3) along. We occupied both VIP Panorama and VIP Suite. There are descriptions of this home available on the owners homepage who excells every expactation one could have. Both appartments are extremely well equipped and in very good condition. There is a fine kitchen in both appartments and a stable wireless connection to the internet without the need of taking your laptop with yousince there are PCs at your disposal in all appartments. Outside is lots of space to chill or romp with your kids. The pool area is fenced in completely, so you don't have to worry about your children (or yourself) falling in the water. There is enough space to have five cars easily parked. Diano Marina is a kid-friendly city. You can park your car in the street leading towards the train station free of charge. It is an easy two minutes walk to the city centre and another two to the beaches. There are a couple of nice towns around and Monaco & France are in easy driving distance. Don't miss to visit Villa Hanbury right on the french border. Mauro is a most friendly, available and dedicated landowner. We recommend this property to our friends.

As a large group of friends we rented the whole property - it was amazing!! Pool, jacuzzi, plenty of space and a beautiful view. The Villa is high tech with wifi and music in all areas and a projector screen for watching movies. The owner was very responsive and lovely to deal with. He also gave great advice and recommendations (eg chef, taxi service). I highly recommend Villa il Poggiolo!

High tech villa in Liguria ! We came for a short stay & were looking for a relaxing place for a family holiday with a view on the Mediterranean sea and some quietness for our elder who needed to prepare for exams. Villa il Poggiolo met our expectations and we were all amazed by the technology installed in the appartment (high tech music & computer equipment + this year's special home cinema). Thanks Mauro !
