Villa Beatrice: The Italian Riviera’s Most Scencic Private Villa, Designed by Martin Brudnizki, Launching in July
Perched on a private spit above Punta Caiega, on the Gulf of Portofino, between the Ligurian coastal hamlets of Paraggi and Portofino, this masterfully restored family palazzo offers a panoramic viewpoint over the Riviera, bringing guests seclusion and intimacy with private sea access, whilst benefitting from all of Splendido’s hotel services.
Originally known as Villa Odero, Villa Beatrice was crafted by Tuscan architect Gino Coppedè, blending Gothic Revival with Art Nouveau innovation. Belmond acquired the villa in 2021 and has since overseen its meticulous restoration under Martin Brudnizki’s interior design vision and Marco Bay’s landscape architecture expertise.
