The rooms at Vela Bianca H & R share essential amenities for a seaside stay: private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, air conditioning, wardrobe and flat-screen TV, with sizes ranging from 9 to 20 square metres. The Small Single Room is designed for solo travellers, while the standard, deluxe and sea-view double room types offer solutions for two people with different outlooks, from the inner courtyard to a direct sea view.
For larger groups, the Deluxe Double/Twin Room combines a double bed and a single bed on a quiet street, while the larger Double Room with Sea View adds a bunk bed, useful for families with children. Several rooms also feature a bidet and toiletries in the bathroom.
This is the largest room in the property, at 20 square metres with a direct sea view. The bunk bed added to the double bed makes it the ideal choice for families of up to four people, a higher occupancy than the other room types.
At just 9 square metres, this is the most compact room in the hotel, designed for a single guest. The single bed and essential space make it suitable for solo travellers looking for an economical solution that still includes a private bathroom.
Overlooking a quiet street, this room combines a double bed and a single bed, the only one among the double room types to offer this flexible configuration suitable for three people, for example two adults and a child.
A more compact version compared to the 20 sqm Double Room with Sea View, it still retains the sea view but with a smaller footprint, designed for two people.
At 19 square metres, this is among the most spacious double rooms and stands out for its view of the inner courtyard, a quieter solution compared to the rooms facing the sea or the street.
Designed specifically for the combination of one adult and one child, this 14-square-metre room is the only one in the property explicitly intended for this type of occupancy.
The third sea-view variant available at the property, this 18-square-metre room offers a full bathroom with bidet and toiletries, an amenity not found in all the other room types.
At 15 square metres, this is one of the most compact double solutions in the property, with no particular view but all the essential amenities for a practical stay.

Vela Bianca H & R is located in the heart of Diano Marina, a very short distance from the seafront and the town’s public beaches. The area is typical of a Ligurian seaside town centre, with low buildings, seafood restaurants and shops along the pedestrian streets leading down to the sea, in a stretch of coast known for its mild climate even outside the peak season.
The Al Mappamondo public beach is about 40 metres away, while Bagni Delfino beach is 200 metres away; Ristorante Del Porto is just 20 metres from the hotel, followed by Da Matteo and Trattoria Cavalleri at 30 metres. Diano railway station can be reached in about 1.9 km, Imperia station in 4.6 km, while Riviera Airport is about 15 km away. For those coming from further afield, Nice Côte d’Azur Airport is about 74 km away.
Diano Marina is a good base for those who want to combine sea and culture: the Church of San Giacomo is 1.5 km away, while Imperia’s historic centre with the Collegiate Church of San Giovanni Battista is about 4.2 km away. In summer, days are spent between equipped and free beaches, walks along the harbour and seafood dinners in the town’s restaurants; in the cooler months the area is well suited to excursions into the Ligurian hinterland and to the historic towns along the coast, such as Imperia with its palazzos and oratories.
Guests particularly praise the staff and the location, both rated 9.1, while cleanliness and comfort remain at solid levels. Value for money and WiFi receive slightly lower ratings, but still consistent with a centrally located seaside hotel.
