A new season has just begun for Villa della Pergola in Alassio: the exclusive hospitality of the Relais—among the 50 best Italian hotels in Travel + Leisure Italy's Best Awards 2025—and the Michelin-starred cuisine of Ristorante Nove are back.

This special year marks the twentieth anniversary of the rescue of a unique heritage site from property speculation, now recognized as a model for the protection and enhancement of the local area.

A new season has just begun for Villa della Pergola and its Michelin-starred Nove restaurant.

2026 marks the twentieth anniversary of Silvia and Antonio Ricci's "crazy" gesture of love: in 2006, the complex was saved from a potential real estate speculation project, preserving a unique historical, natural, and cultural heritage that would otherwise have been lost and forgotten.

In 2026, you can once again enjoy the exclusive experience of this corner of the Italian Riviera by staying at the Relais or savoring the dishes created by Chef Antonio Romano at Nove Restaurant. In the year of this important anniversary, the new season opening on the Riviera di Ponente brings with it all the strength of this story.

THE RELAIS: A JEWEL OF THE RIVIERA

Relais Villa della Pergola confirms its position as the destination of choice for those seeking hospitality that transcends the concept of luxury: exclusive, discreet, and tailor-made, tailored around each guest and their uniqueness.

Nineteen suites, each unique in history, character, and view, offer a unique stay: each space tells a story, immersed in the extraordinary greenery of the Gardens.

Completing the experience is Casa Nirvana, an exclusive wellness oasis with an infinity pool overlooking the Bay of Alassio, a relaxation area, spa, and gym, where the landscape of the Riviera di Ponente becomes an integral part of the rejuvenating journey.

The excellence of Villa della Pergola's hospitality was recently recognized with a nomination among the 50 best hotels in Italy in the first edition of Travel + Leisure Italy's Best Awards 2025.

A member of the Relais & Châteaux family—"a jewel that enriches the Italian collection"—and part of Dimore Storiche Italiane, the circuit of Italy's excellence, since 2024, Villa della Pergola is the custodian of a profound identity: art, history, traditions, and the Mediterranean landscape intertwine in an experience that belongs to a slow, precious, and unrepeatable time.
