The Italian Riviera got a refresh. Situate yourself at the center of it all — on a hillside overlooking the iconic Portofino harbor. Live like a royal Duke, Madonna or Jennifer Anniston, all of whom have enjoyed a stay at Splendido. The essence of La Dolce Vita is palpable through a property that radiates glamour.

Formerly a simple seaside fishing accommodation, Splendido harnesses its nautical environment and pairs it with trademark Belmond luxury. Guests sunbathe by the pool, stroll in the glorious gardens and indulge in freshly caught seafood, the finest wines and cocktails under the stars. Explore picturesque coastal villages, soak up the sun on a private beach lounger or learn how to make traditional Ligurian pesto. It’s carefree chic at Splendido.
