Scene
Charming common spaces and beautiful garden
The property is homey and simply decorated with antique furniture and little piles of books and magazines in key spots. The restaurant and bar area are slightly more modern and elegant, with beautiful light-colored wood floors and sky-blue upholstered love seats and armchairs. The outdoor veranda offers tables with cheerful yellow checkered tablecloths. The back terraces overlook a beautiful garden with a variety of trees and flowers.
Location
In a quiet area that's a short walk to town; public transportation is more than a mile away
Villa Anita is in a quiet residential area that’s a hilly 10-minute walk to the restaurants, shops, and port in the town of Santa Margherita Ligure. It’s a bit more than a mile to the railway station, where travelers can catch the train to the cluster of villages found in Le Cinque Terre. A bus can also take visitors to the fishermen’s town of Portofino, which can be reached by ferry in the warmer months. The coastal region of northwestern Italy where Santa Margherita Ligure is located is known as the Italian Riviera.
Rooms
Small, but bright and modern
Villa Anita’s 12 rooms are small, but the renovated spaces are bright and modern, with clean hardwood floors, white or light-wood furniture, and beds accented with quilts. The sleek black-tiled bathrooms are tight, but have bowl sinks and stall showers with modern fixtures. All rooms have flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, kettles, safes, and hairdryers. Some rooms have balconies with lovely views.
Features
Outdoor whirlpool, restaurant (with free breakfast buffet), and bike rentals
An outdoor heated whirlpool is equipped with five types of massage features. The hotel’s restaurant serves an abundant breakfast buffet that’s included in the room rate and takes reservations for dinner, which is served on the terrace in the warmer months. A kid's area with a porch has a swing, slide, and ping-pong table. Bicycle rentals are free, and there’s also a small workout room.
