Villa Zoagli: Your Paradise on the Shore. Private access to the sea

Imagine waking up to the sound of the waves, stepping out of your villa in your swimsuit and flip-flops, taking just a few steps, and diving into crystal-clear waters. Welcome to Villa Fosca, where this dream becomes reality.

Located in Zoagli, near the renowned Portofino, this exclusive residence overlooking the Gulf of Tigullio offers the perfect blend of luxury and nature. Surrounded by lush Mediterranean greenery, it guarantees absolute privacy and direct access to two private sea areas of the complex : one with rock platforms and a ladder leading into pristine waters, and another more secluded spot, ideal for those seeking total tranquility.

The house, part of a villa, boasts 150 square meters of elegance, featuring a spacious covered terrace with a breathtaking sea view, a well-kept garden, and multiple sun terraces equipped with comfortable loungers—perfect for relaxation.

The interiors are both spacious and refined, with three double bedrooms (two with sea views), two modern bathrooms, and a living room with a stunning panoramic glass wall that creates the sensation of bringing the Mediterranean right inside.

For families with young children, the villa provides everything you need, including a comfortable crib (not a travel cot) and a high chair.

The fully equipped kitchen opens onto the large covered terrace, where you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, or a candlelit dinner under the stars, with the sea as the ever-present backdrop.

Villa Fosca offers every comfort for an unforgettable stay, from private parking (with 50 illuminated steps leading to the entrance) to direct sea access via a shaded, green pathway with steps (200m – approximately 150 steps).

Just a short drive away along the Aurelia road, built by the ancient Romans and following the coastline, you’ll reach Zoagli in just 5 minutes—a charming Ligurian village where you can stroll freely and find supermarkets, restaurants, and beach clubs (some with pools) overlooking Portofino. In 8 minutes, you can reach Chiavari, a lively town offering all the services you may need.

Villa Fosca is an exclusive retreat where you can be lulled by the sound of the waves and experience the authentic charm of the Ligurian Riviera.

Paradise on the coast….
Simply amazing. Pick a moment - the first time you walk down to the house and take in the view, lazing by the Med in your own private area then jumping in for a dip to cool off, exploring nearby Zoagli, Portofino and Camogli or evening drinks and dinner on the balcony…. It was all perfect. Luca is an outstanding host and provided many great recommendations for us during our stay.

Lovely get away
This nice house is located in a quiet and peaceful location in between towns. The ocean entrace after a hike down is small and not ever busy. We wereable to snorkel and see tons of fish and sea life! The ocean is a great sound to fall asleep to every night! I would recommend this house for anyone who doesn't mind stairs and enjoys swimming inthe ocean. Also you'll want a car because of the private location if you want to viait town for shoping and/or food.

A special spot with incredible views!
We really enjoyed our time here very much. The villa is well-maintained and has everything that you would need for a beautiful getaway. The host was so nice and helpful, and the walk down to the water from the house is definitely worth it. The views are spectacular from several vantage points, and we loved the indoor/outdoor feel of the property.

really nice place, beautiful location, challenge for low mobility or handicap
pros: the home is very nice and comfortable. the location is beautiful with spectacular views. close to zoagli, chiavara, san margarita. cons: no drive up to the house and 60 stairs down to the house with bags, and 60 stairs up to the car. the ocean swimming is pretty but there are 130 stairs down to the water. a challenge to someone with disabilities like one of our friends and inaccessible to someone in a wheelchair this all should have been disclosed better on the booking site. washer but no dryer

Filthy Property, Beautiful Area, Look Elsewhere
After a day of travel, we arrived to a home that was simply put, disgusting. Our feet were blackened by the floor, the bathrooms had urine stains in the toilets, the showers were moldy & mildewed with dirty glass, food remnants were scattered throughout the kitchen, the sheets were mildewed & blood stained. ( I have pics/videos of all) Needless to say, we were disgusted beyond comprehension. We contacted the manager who offered a plethora of excuses but no immediate remedy. His solution was to have the "cleaning" lady that produced these results come back the next day & to have new sheets provided the following day as well. Extremely angry, we refused the cleaning person, knowing the level of incompetence. We then spent the next several hours of our vacation cleaning the house to an acceptable level. Still needing bedding, we scavenged the house & managed to find semi-clean sheets in the owner's cabinet, washed & used those the first night. New sheets did arrive the next day but obviously our first night was spent very uncomfortable & cleaning a home instead of vacationing. Beyond the cleanliness aspect, there are other property issues. The middle bedroom had an active water leak in the ceiling and the house had a mold smell to it. The train is also very close to the property & loud, especially at night picking up around 11PM with freight trains running in regular intervals. Lastly, a property sewer leak made it unsafe to swim for 2 days. Beautiful area, find another house.

Amazing house about the Mediterranean
This house exceeded our expectation! But the location is what really blew our minds. The house itself is fantastic, modern and clean, really nice to hang out in, breathtaking views of the sea. Down the (steep) steps is an incredible swimming area, with various places to hang out, a little house with a fridge and some sun beds, showers, etc. Gorgeous beyond belief, the clearest and bluest water. Luca was a lovely and responsive host.

Italian Riviera Getwway
This was a wonderful stay and start for our trip for my family. The flat was clean and spacious, the views were breathtaking and and Lucca was attentive and helpful with all of our needs. He allowed us to use his kayak down at the sea cove, suggested restaurants and was available to answer all questions. There are only two things I might mention and one is that there are main train tracks below the flat and it runs quite frequently, so if noise sensitive, keep this in mind. It didn't really bother us. The other is that if you have any physical disabilities this might be a challenging property for you to get to. The flat itself is very accessible once in it, but it has a few flights of steep stairs up and down to get to the carpark, so if you have an older member traveling with you, you may want to consider this. Overall, wonderful location and the views are unbelievable and as shown in the pictures.

Gorgeous Mediterranean home!!!
This gorgeous property was perfect for my family. The property was well appointed with comfortable beds, everything one would need for cooking in the kitchen. We so enjoyed relaxing on the multiple deck’s that this property provided. Every room in this house had a gorgeous view of the rugged Mediterranean ocean. Our host Luca was absolutely the best!!!! He was always available to chat and give me great recommendations! My only regret is that I did not book it for a longer stay. It was truly magical!!!

Nice place
to relax completely embosomed by the sound of the sea. Huge property and generous rooms with an amply kitchen to cook regional food you got on the market in Chiavari! Zoagli itself is a pitoresque village apart from the rather touristic places in this area. Great swimming in the little bay you reach by stepping down a romantic private way through mediterrean vegetation.

Ein kleines Paradies
Diese Wohnung ist traumhaft schön gelegen, an der Steilküste mit Zugang zum Meer. Der Blick aufs Meer und die Sonnenuntergänge sind fantastisch. Wir konnten uns manchmal kaum zu Ausflügen in die Umgebung aufraffen. Für sechs Personen ist die Wohnung sehr geräumig. Im Außenbereich gibt es mehrere Flächen auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen, auf denen Sitz- und Liegemöglichkeiten vorhanden sind. Von jedem dieser Plätze auch kann man die traumhafte Lage genießen. Wir können Luca's Wohnung wärmstens empfehlen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.
