Description

Tucked away snugly among the olives and pines, Villa Poggio di Andora enjoys a slightly elevated position. This superb holiday complex is equipped with a beautiful swimmingpool and all the apartments are unostantatiously and practically furnished. The fine sandy beaches of Andora are within easy walking distance, at about 600 metres, and for the most part are free. Enjoy a gentle stroll along the beautiful promenade. Bed linen and towels are included in the price.

location details: Andora



For over ten years, Andora has been awarded the "Blue European Flag" of approval for the cleanness of the sea, the beauty of the beach and the quality of its services. This tourist resort stands at the mouth of the River Merola, between Capo Mele and Capo Cervo.


The beach is sandy, while the sea-bed is an interesting mixture of sand and rocks (there is also a wreck dating from the second world war): the two local diving centres organise courses and diving practice. The attractions are completed by a 700-berth leisure port and the local regattas organised by local sailing clubs. The recently created "Whale Sanctuary", which runs from Tuscany to Cannes, has its centre in the waters off Andora, in a stretch of sea where whales can often be sighted.


Andora was apparently founded by some exiles from Phocaea (Asia Minor) before the arrival of the Romans and the construction of the Via Julia Augusta.


The thirteenth-century castle of the Clavesana family is quite far from the coast and from Andora Marina, the oldest part of the town. The complex includes the Paraxo, which was the residence of the Clavesana family and later the seat of the Genoese administrators, and the tower-gate to the castle. Not far away is the church of Santi Giacomo e Filippo: like the tower, this is built of Capo Mele rock and is a remarkable example of Ligurian late-Romanesque style. The so-called Roman bridge over the Merola is actually a mediaeval construction. It is one hundred metres in length and has ten arches, three of which are hump-backed.


Colla Micheri lies in the valley area between Andora and Laigueglia along the Via Julia Augusta. This very ancient town became well known thanks to the work of the Norwegian ethnologist and explorer Thor Heyerdhal. Other itineraries, which can be made by mountain bike, take you to the municipal districts of Rolla and Conna. The Merola nature reserve is a great attraction for birdwatchers.

All was great!

Also a fan or some other cooling device in the room itself would have been welcomed. Some parasols or other shade on the balcony to protect from the sun, otherwise it can be too hot. Restaurant cinquantesei (56) was very good and the staff very friendly. (sorry, we don't know the address) just a small point: the deposit that has been paid should be refunded automatically and not have to requested by us. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but there is some room for improvement. Andora is a nice town, very easy to reach other places along the coast. Some touristic information in the reception area about things to do, activities that are happening would have been useful.

Unbedingt Zug nutzen. Gerade in der Hochsaison Mangel an Parkplätzen in den Städten, einfache kostensparende Zugfahrten (z.B. 6,- ? von Andora nach San Remo). Auch Staugefahr an den schönen Küstenstraßen, dauert viel länger mit Auto. Nach Alessio lässt es sich gut die Promenade lang wandern. Restaurant Taxi, nah am Meer, einfach, freundlich, preiswert und leckere Pizza u Nudeln, sehr zu empfehlen. Wir waren oft da. Danke für alles.


11.07.2009 - 18.07.2009, Eike S. (DE)

Sehr preiswerte Pizzeria Butafuogo (15...20 min. zu Fuß)mit hervorragenden Pizzen und gutem Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Größere Familien (ab 5 Personen) sollten Tische reservieren.


04.07.2009 - 11.07.2009, Morten B. (DK)

Better quality of furnitures, flatscreen tv with som international channels. Maybe free internet
