If you follow the signs from Imperia to St. Agata, through the picturesque olive groves of the mountains, on reaches the holiday home of Casa St. Agata. Here you occupy the upper level of house, with its own entrance and large terrace, which are perfect for social evenings. The apartment offers place for 6 persons and has two bedrooms. From each of the bedrooms you can access the terrace. The kitchen is small but sufficiently adequate to cater to yourself after all your excursions. The terrace offers you a beautiful panoramic view of the landscape and the sea.

Imperia is the fourth largest town in Liguria. It became a municipality in 1923 as a consequence of the union of Oneglia and Porto Maurizio, two towns on the Western Riviera divided by the mouth of the River Impero.

The two nuclei remain distinct despite the administrative merger and extensive property development.

Porto Maurizio was an ally of Genoa from the thirteenth century onwards, while Oneglia, the natural sea outlet of the Impero Valley, was allied with the House of Savoy from 1576. Oneglia's origins as a town date back to mediaeval times. Worth visiting are Palazzo Doria (now completely transformed), which was the birthplace of Andrea Doria, and the church of San Giovanni Battista. Porto Maurizio, which stands on a promontory, began to develop after 1000 AD: the oldest district is called Parasio. The cathedral and the historic buildings are well worth visiting.

Sant Agata is a district of Imperia which is located above it geographically speaking. It offers a grand view of the sea.
