Villa Rezzola

Villa Rezzola sits on terraced land that slopes toward the sea, offering views across the Gulf of Poets. The main building was constructed in the 18th century, built atop remains from medieval military structures, and received major changes throughout the following centuries.

Construction began in the 18th century, built over the foundations of medieval defensive structures. Substantial changes were made throughout the 1800s and 1900s that shaped how the property appears today.

The rooms show how the owners lived, with furnishings and decorations from different periods that tell the story of Ligurian nobles and British families who made this place their home.

The villa is currently closed for major restoration work on the buildings and the gardens surrounding it. Before planning a visit, check the current status to see when it might reopen to the public.

The gardens contain rare camphor trees and magnolias that are watered through a carefully designed system distributing water across different levels of the property. These unusual plants make the grounds particularly interesting for visitors.
