Plan your stay at Calicantus bed and breakfast

A bed and breakfast with garden and free bicycles in Albenga, just a few kilometres from the Ligurian beaches, with shared kitchen and vegan breakfast on request.

Room types

Calicantus bed and breakfast offers two types of accommodation designed for different needs, both characterised by strong self-sufficiency: each unit has its own kitchen complete with refrigerator, microwave and utensils, as well as a private bathroom with bidet and hairdryer. The outdoor patio and garden view are common to both solutions, as is the in-room coffee machine, designed for those who wish to prepare some meals independently without giving up essential comforts.

The Double Room, at 16 sqm, is the larger choice and accommodates up to two people with a large double bed, while the Single Room, at 12 sqm, is designed for a single guest with a single bed and is the most compact in the property. Both rooms are located on the ground floor and share access to the garden and outdoor picnic area, making the stay practical even for those travelling with bicycles or wishing to dine outdoors.

Location & what to see

Calicantus bed and breakfast is located in Regione Bagnoli, a residential and agricultural area on the outskirts of Albenga, a historic town on the Riviera delle Palme known for its medieval centre rich in towers. The property, surrounded by a garden, offers a quiet setting just minutes from the heart of the town.

Albenga train station is about 2.6 km away, as is Albenga’s main beach, reachable within a few minutes. Riviera Airport is just 4.3 km away, while Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 64 km away, an option for those arriving from further afield. Within a 1-2 km radius there are several bars and restaurants, including Caffetteria da Sancio at 400 metres and the Mammamia restaurant at 800 metres.

The area is ideal for those who want to alternate between the sea and the hinterland: the beaches of Alassio and Ceriale can be reached in a few minutes by car or by bicycle, also thanks to the free rental offered by the property. In winter and mid-season, visitors can explore the area’s historic sites, such as the Church of San Bartolomeo and the sanctuary of Nostra Signora della Guardia, both about 5 km away, or walk the trails of the Lerrone-Valloni forest. In summer, the proximity to the sea and to the villages of the Riviera makes the B&B a convenient base for days spent between the beach and strolls through Ligurian historic centres.

Albenga Beach — the town's main beach, sandy and easily accessible 2,7 km
