Breakfast at L’Orto a colazione: a good day starts with the morning.
A great breakfast to recharge your batteries, stay in shape and start the day with a smile!
Our lavish breakfast trays are made with genuine high-quality organic local ingredients.
Cereals and seeds, jams and honey, croissants, bread and cured meats, yoghurt and cheeses, fruit and vegetables, eggs and waffles, a tea corner for teas and infusions, a cappuccino or a fine Italian espresso, an organic juice and much more.
On sunny days, breakfast is served outside on the suspended terraces with a view of the pool.
“To receive guests is to take charge of their happiness during the entire time they are under your roof.”

Gastronomy also means history and culture, and authentic Ligurian cuisine is one of the most exquisite, comprehensive examples of this that you will find: rich but uncomplicated, well-known but quiet, rustic but refined, lean but wicked… just like the Ligurians!
The philosophy of the Schiaffino family at Villa Edera & La Torretta has, since 1962, aimedto a rediscovery of traditions to match the concept, because through a combination of taste, aroma and sight, we want guests to remember this corner of Liguria which was theirs, even if just for a moment.
We believe that the freshness of our produce is a choice, and so is bringing seasonal produce partially harvested from our organic garden to the table. When this is not possible, we always give preference to high-quality local or Italian produce.
Many of the salad leaves and other vegetables, wild aromatic herbs and fruits, including lemons and other citrus fruits, are grown in our untreated soil and proudly offered to our guests.
Our 100% Homemade in Liguria: jellies, preserves, marmelades, chocolate and hazelnut spread, fresh organic produce from our culinary garden, homemade fresh pastas, wine & olive oil from our estate; a way to bring Liguria back to your homes!
