Wedding anniversary! We have celebrated our first wedding anniversary this amazing place. The staff is so welcoming and the place is just a dream come true. As I have special diet requirements I’ve emailed the hotel about my allergies and everything was taken care of into all the details. I can’t imagine to be in a better place than this. Big applause for all the staff who made our stay so amazing.

Most relaxing week ever. The hotel is run with great efficiency and even greater warmth. Indeed the whole village is is part of the experience. There were several families with beautifully behaved young children staying at the hotel – it just added to our enjoyment. All the restaurants in the village were excellent.

One of the best hotel I ever stayed in
Borgomaro is a very cute little village near to Imperia and coastal route yet secluded in a very beautiful country side, with a pretty church, river with ducks, somptuous views a little drive or a big walk away. The Relais is absolutely charming, very tastefully furnished and…

Relais del Maro is pretty much perfect. The location is beautiful. The room was clean and spacious. The breakfast was not only huge and consisting of fresh, local ingredients, they also changed up the cheese and meat selection on a daily basis. The staff was very nice and helpful. It’s also perfectly situated, so you can take hikes among the olive groves on one day and within a 20 minute drive get to a nice ocean beach.

What a find, awesome hotel and staff. If we had known, we would have stayed longer, we will be back. Very warm welcome and an unexpected upgrade to a suite. Awesome breakfast and complementary afternoon tea on the terrace. We met a Canadian couple on their third visit, which sums the place up. Excellent accommodation in a stunning location. We used one of the local restaurants (Marco and daughter) with a set traditional meal, which was awesome and a fantastic experience not to be missed.

Excellent owner and staff! The property(s) (3 locations in town) are old family homes of the owner (her grandfather was the town butcher) that have been renovated and upgraded to a very high standard. The town is small and in the mountains not too far away from the busy coastline. The staff was friendly and had excellent service on every aspect. A definite place to return to in the future.
