Breakfast

The breakfast at B&B Relax is unique! It is served both inside and outside and is a buffet service where you can serve yourself, while I will prepare tea, coffee, latte, cappuccino and hot chocolate for you. For those who love savory food, there are pizzas, focaccias, and stuffed sandwiches with cured meats and cheese. For those who have a sweet tooth, there are tarts and rolls with Nutella, but I don't want to reveal too much, it's a surprise. On the table, you will also find crispbread, jams, Nutella, fruit juices such as pear, peach, apricot, mixed yogurt, and fresh fruit.

He B&B is managed by Enrica Pollara, born in Moncalieri and graduated in Turin as a tourism professional. Tired of city life, she moved to Liguria and after years of restoration work opened this B&B. Helpfulness, hospitality and quality have always distinguished her service and in this oasis of peace visitors will find, amongst the green just a few kilometres from the sea, a place to relax, away from the stress and strain of daily life.

Grazie molto gentile.

We stayed as guests for one night with family and friends in an apartment, I can only speak well of everything. The welcome by Mrs. Enrica was caring and kind. The husband is affable, curious, and willing to engage in conversation. The B&B Relax has been renovated with grace and attention. I want to give a special mention to Mrs. Enrica's mother, for her wonderful cakes and the unbeatable focaccia. Highly recommended without a shadow of a doubt.

Great B&B. The place is very quiet and peaceful. The structure is very clean and the family management makes the picture even more enchanting. It is an ideal base for visiting Liguria and/or going on excursions to nearby France.\n\nWe will return with great pleasure.

A 10 minutes from the sea, a structure immersed in greenery and tranquility. Very kind and helpful owners, extremely clean rooms and really abundant breakfasts. The chocolate cake is really delicious! Of course, it's a B&B that I would recommend.

The structure has exceeded all expectations. Maximum comfort, beautiful rooms. Excellent attention to detail and cleanliness, and the management is very pleasant. In addition to the splendid location, the B&B Relax is certainly a pleasant place to enjoy some relaxation or as a base for business trips. Definitely recommended for anyone looking to spend pleasant days in Villanova d'Albenga.

When you arrive at the climb that indicates the hamlet of Marta, you do not know what to expect. You start to go through one hairpin bend after another among fresh vegetation and olive trees as far as the eye can see. Hairpin curves that seem never-ending, but in reality, they are only a few kilometers and when you finally arrive in this cheerful village, you do not know if you are in Marta or on Mars. What a spectacle, what views, what landscapes! An arrow indicates B&B Relax, no name could be more appropriate, and who disturbs you in such a place? You are greeted by the volcanic Enrica, who along with her mother and father have been managing this structure, all made of stone and wood, for a few years, a true gem nestled in the Ligurian mountains! A few rooms, two apartments, but what luxury, all furnished with taste and attention to detail that even the best architect could not achieve. You settle into your room, take a nap that you do not remember anymore, and when you go down to the breakfast room, you cannot believe your eyes. Every delicacy prepared by the mother with skill, from bread to pastries, (and what pastries) an expert tells you! Everything prepared with rigorous care in the ingredients, all fresh, eggs produced by the free-range hens that Enrica's father, a man of other times, pampers, prepares the sauce, sweeps, waters, builds, does it all. What a team! Congratulations to this family that turns this job into a fun activity, a true passion, and you can see it from the joy and care they dedicate to the customer. Well done for the hospitality, cleanliness, attention, and for the price. B&B to recommend for a dream vacation. 10. See you soon!

Hello everyone, my name is Fabrizio. I had the fortune to spend a week at the B&B Relax. Days of rest in a wonderful, quiet location, 10 minutes by car from the beach of Alassio. Enrica and her family are wonderful hosts. Thanks to their breakfasts, we gained a few kilos and it was worth it. We left with a heavy heart. Now we cannot wait to have some time to return and enjoy everything again. One piece of advice: book in advance.
