La Meridiana ReIais & Chateaux is a 5-star relais in Garlenda, Liguria, located next to the 18-hole golf course designed in 1960 by architect John Harris. The property is surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, in a setting that couples rate 9.0 for romantic stays.
The rooms, ranging from Superior to the larger Suites, offer views of the garden, the vineyards or the pool, often with a private patio or balcony. All accommodations feature air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar, while the higher categories add a kitchenette, a lounge area or a fireplace.
The garden is home to a rock-carved pool with a hot tub, while the dining offer is split between the Rosmarino restaurant, dedicated to modern takes on Mediterranean cuisine, and the more informal Bistrot de la Meridiana, with candlelit outdoor dinners in summer. Parking is free and pets are allowed on request in the junior suites, making the property suitable for couples, golfers and lovers of rural quiet just minutes from the Alassio coast.
The range of accommodations at La Meridiana ReIais & Chateaux includes nine room types, from the Superior Double/Twin Room to the 100 sqm Executive Suite, along with Junior Suites and Deluxe Suites. All rooms are air-conditioned, equipped with a flat-screen TV, minibar and private bathroom with tub or shower, and most enjoy views of the pool or the surrounding vineyards, often accompanied by a balcony, patio or private terrace.
Room sizes increase significantly moving from the classic rooms to the suites: the Suite in the Dependance, with an independent entrance, kitchenette and lounge area, is designed for more self-sufficient stays, while the Quadruple Junior Suite and the Triple Junior Suite cater to families or small groups thanks to flexible bed configurations, including a bunk bed. The Deluxe Suite stands out for its four-poster bed and fireplace, a romantic touch rare among the other room types.

La Meridiana ReIais & Chateaux is located in the San Rocco area, a rural part of Garlenda surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, next to the 18-hole golf course designed by architect John Harris in 1960. The setting is that of the Ligurian hinterland, just minutes from the coast, in a hilly landscape dotted with farmhouses and small villages.
Distances confirm the convenience of the location: Riviera Airport is just 1.8 km away, while Agriturismo Serrette is only 650 metres away and the Il Frantoio restaurant just over 1 km. Alassio railway station is about 5 km away, as is Alassio Beach, reachable in a few minutes by car. For those coming from farther away, Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 70 km away.
The area lends itself to various activities in every season: in summer, the proximity to the sea allows guests to alternate between golf and the beach, with the coast of Alassio and Laigueglia just a short drive away; all year round it is possible to go hiking or cycling along the trails of the Lerrone-Valloni forest, 1.3 km away, and horse riding in the hinterland.
