Plan your stay at Message in a Bottle Bed and Breakfast

Family-run bed and breakfast in Camporosso, between Liguria and the French border, with independent rooms featuring their own kitchen, terrace, and sea or mountain views.

Room types

The rooms at Message in a Bottle Bed and Breakfast are divided into two types, both designed as small independent units with their own kitchen, private bathroom with toiletries and hairdryer, minibar and direct access to the outdoors. The Deluxe Room measures 33 m² and can accommodate up to three guests, while the Deluxe Double Room with Shower is more compact, designed for two people.

Both options feature a private terrace, flat-screen TV and coffee machine, but differ in the view and in the bathroom details: the Deluxe offers a bathtub and a glimpse of the sea, while the Double Room features a shower and a garden view. The private entrance makes each room suitable for those seeking privacy during their stay in Liguria.

Location & what to see

Message in a Bottle Bed and Breakfast is located in the hamlet of San Giacomo, on the hills above Camporosso, just a few minutes from the French border. The area retains a rural character, with olive trees and terraces sloping down towards the coast, away from the traffic of the town centre yet still close to the sea and local life.

To reach the property, the use of a private vehicle is recommended, as it is not served by public transport; Ventimiglia railway station is still about 950 metres from the nearest built-up area. From there, Menton, in France, is 10 km away, Nice 30 km, and Levaldigi Airport 82 km, while the Monaco heliport is about 17 km away. The beaches of Ventimiglia are 1.5 km away, and those of Bordighera about 3.3 km, convenient for a day at the seaside without travelling too far.

Nature lovers can reach Passo del Cane, 8 km away, in just a few minutes by car, a starting point for hikes along the trails of the Ligurian hinterland, or visit the Hanbury Botanical Gardens, just 5 km away, among the most famous historic gardens of the Riviera dei Fiori. Nearby there are also small eateries such as Bottega a Fugaa or Bar Enrico di Cassan, convenient for an informal meal or breakfast out. In summer, the coast between Ventimiglia and Bordighera offers both free and equipped beaches, while in winter the area is well suited to walks in the hinterland and half-day trips across the border to the historic centre and gardens of Menton.
