Venue

Hotel Punta San Martino

The hotel in Arenzano Punta San Martino is located in a quiet and privileged position overlooking the sea, with beautiful views over the Gulf of Genoa and the Ligurian Riviera di Ponente.

It overlooks the bay from the height of its cliff, nestled in the lush greenery of the Pinewood and golf course nearby. Set in a spectacular location overlooking the Gulf of Genoa, the inn is set in the quaint seaside village, which is linked to the coast and to the land thanks to the proximity of Monte Beigua, part of the Regional Natural Park of the same name.

The hotel near Genoa offers to tourists countless 4-star opportunities that go from the boardwalk to hiking, discovering really suggestive and panoramic internal paths. A few kilometres by car also lead us to the city of Genoa, charming and mysterious, quiet and full of artistic and architectural masterpieces to visit.
