Villas in Bordighera

Queen of the palms, nature and the hills with an atmosphere that has inspired throughout the times artists and writers. Bordighera is an exclusive dream between land and sea. The Flowers Riviera is a real treasure: the sea, where the Mediterranean cetaceans reigns supreme, the land giving constant surprise, rich in art, culture, the lively coastal towns hosting events and markets and last but not least the timid villages inland. A charming palette of tastes, flavours and colours. Here between Sanremo and Ventimiglia, a few kilometers from the French border, lies the beautiful town of Bordighera. If there is a place in particular where the tourism in Liguria got its start, that must be Bordighera. It was Giovanni Ruffini, a patriot exiled in England in the 800´s, to tell British people about the charm of the Riviera, writing a novel about Doctor Antonio living in the City of Palms. Since then Bordighera has become one of the most sought after destinations for international tourism.

Bordighera hosts several famous historical villas, such as Villa Garnier, Villa Mostaccini (also known as Torre Mostaccini), Villa Donegani or Villa Ego, and Villa Margherita.
Villa Garnier, designed by the architect Charles Garnier — famous for the Palais Garnier and the Opéra de Monte-Carlo — was built between 1871 and 1873, with gardens created by Ludwig Winter. Today, it serves as an accommodation facility for holidays.
Villa Mostaccini dominates the hill and is one of the most luxurious buildings in all of Liguria. Built in 1932 in a Renaissance style, it stands out for its elegance and grandeur.
Villa Donegani, also known as Villa Ego or Villa Marchesano, was designed by architect Gio Ponti and enhanced with a lobby by Kenzo Tange. It is a unique piece of modern architectural history, featuring a private beach.
Villa Margherita, or Villa Regina Margherita, was built by Luigi Broggi between 1913 and 1914 as a residence for Queen Margherita of Savoy, and today it serves as a museum.
Villa Bischoffsheim, or Villa Etelinda (built between 1873 and 1875), was also designed by Charles Garnier, with a park by Ludwig Winter. The land on which Villa Margherita was later built originally formed part of the same park, creating a historical link among three of these villas.
