The Stars Come Out

Celebrities and famous people are drawn to the beauty and charm of the Liguria region in Italy as much as any traveller. Its stunning seaside scenery, fine cuisine and idyllic fishing ports have ensured that this part of Italy is on every celeb holiday wishlist.



The fact is that the Italian Riviera has been attracting the elite for many centuries. You can find records of noblemen commenting of its charm and exclusivity as early as the late 16th century, over 400 years ago.

Then in the 18th and 19th century, British and northern European aristocrats as well as many famous artists and poets began to visit. Some, the likes of Byron and Shelley were captivated enough by its stunning beauty that decided to settle in for a period in the area.
