Achille married a girl from Milan who was immediately attracted to Liguria; it was due to her choice that the villa became a summer boarding house for tourists. After a thorough renovation which emphasizes its original structure, the Villa hotel has become a charming Hotel and refined restaurant.

HISTORY
During a careful restoration in 2005 fully respecting the original structure many ancient parts have been uncovered;

In the reception, on the ground floor an ancient well was discovered and restored. The well was probably used to supply water for the kitchens.

On the first floor the false ceiling panels were removed, discovering the old 5 metres hight vaulted ceilings and interesting frescos.

The height permitted the realization of prestigious Suite rooms; arranged on 2 different levels which vary in size from 40 to 60 sq.m ; with a night area upstairs and a living area down stairs.

On the first and second floors the typical Genoese granite floors, hidden by other covering floors, was saved and polished and also the original wooden doors and windows were replaced with their fashionable handles.
