Plan your stay at AFFITTACAMERE ARCOBALENO

Family-run guest house in the centre of Santa Margherita Ligure, just steps from the sea, with air-conditioned rooms, balcony and garden view.

Room types

AFFITTACAMERE ARCOBALENO offers two types of Triple Room, both designed to accommodate up to three people and equipped with an independent entrance, a detail that gives guests greater freedom in managing arrival and departure times. Each room is air-conditioned and overlooks a balcony with a view of the property’s internal garden, an element that helps make the stay more relaxing even during the summer months.

The two rooms share practical amenities such as a private bathroom with shower, flat-screen TV, desk, coffee machine, refrigerator and safe, while the main difference lies in the size: the first measures 27 m², the second 23 m². Both include two beds, a comfortable configuration for families with a child or small groups of friends travelling together who want to share the same accommodation without giving up the privacy of an exclusive bathroom.
