Splendido: The Radiant Stage of Portifino

Escape to Italy.

A charming seaside village, Portofino has remained an enduring favorite among the jet set for over a century. Its secret? Splendido. Opened in 1902, this legendary hotel has welcomed icons such as Ava Gardner, Clark Gable, Elizabeth Taylor, Denzel Washington, Madonna, and Beyoncé, to name just a few. Despite its high-profile guest list, Portofino is the epitome of la dolce vita, a spirit mirrored in the hotel itself. Once a sixteenth-century Benedictine monastery, Splendido has been beautifully updated for the twenty-first century by Belmond.
