For many international buyers, owning a property within a golf community is about much more than access to the course. It is a lifestyle choice that combines privacy, security, natural surroundings and a relaxed pace of life, all within a well maintained residential environment.
In Liguria, few locations offer this combination as successfully as the area surrounding the prestigious Garlenda Golf Club. Nestled among the rolling hills of Western Liguria and just a short drive from the Mediterranean coast, Garlenda has become one of the region’s most sought after destinations for golf enthusiasts and property buyers looking for an authentic Italian lifestyle.
Why Buy a Property in a Golf Community?
Golf communities continue to attract buyers from across Europe thanks to the unique lifestyle they offer. Beyond the sporting aspect, these environments are appreciated for their tranquillity, open spaces and strong sense of community. Unlike many busy coastal resorts, living within a golf club allows residents to enjoy privacy and greenery while remaining close to restaurants, beaches, marinas and everyday services. This balance between convenience and tranquillity is one of the main reasons why golf properties remain highly desirable among second home buyers and retirees alike.
In Liguria, these advantages are complemented by a mild climate, beautiful landscapes and easy access from major European cities, making the region particularly attractive for year round living as well as holiday use.
Garlenda Golf Club: One of Liguria’s Best Golf Destinations
Located near Alassio, Garlenda Golf Club is widely regarded as one of the finest golf clubs in Northern Italy.
Designed by British architects John Morrison and John Harris, the 18 hole championship course blends seamlessly into a landscape of olive groves, vineyards and Mediterranean vegetation. The result is a course that is both technically rewarding and visually appealing, attracting players from Italy and abroad.
The Golf Club is known for its welcoming international atmosphere and excellent facilities, including a clubhouse and restaurant that serve as social hubs for members and residents. Over the years, Garlenda has become particularly popular among buyers from Northern Europe, Switzerland, Germany, France and the United Kingdom who appreciate its relaxed lifestyle and strategic location.
One of Garlenda’s greatest advantages is its proximity to the coast. The beaches, restaurants and boutiques of Alassio are only a few minutes away, while the surrounding countryside offers opportunities for cycling, hiking and exploring the authentic villages of inland Liguria.
International travel is also straightforward thanks to the convenient access to Nice Côte d’Azur Airport and Genoa Cristoforo Colombo Airport, both offering connections to major European destinations.
Within less than one hour’s drive from Garlenda, golf enthusiasts can enjoy several of the most renowned golf clubs on both the Italian and French Rivieras, including Circolo Golf degli Ulivi in San Remo, Golf Club Castellaro near Imperia and the prestigious Monte-Carlo Golf Club overlooking Monaco. Continuing along the Côte d’Azur, players can also easily reach some of Southern France’s most exclusive golf destinations, including clubs around Cannes, Mougins and Valbonne, making this part of the Riviera particularly attractive for international buyers passionate about golf and Mediterranean living.
