Buy property in Loano

Loano is one of the most popular seaside towns on the Riviera delle Palme, prized for its long stretch of fine sandy beach – a rarity on Liguria's often rocky coast. Unlike many resorts it stays lively all year round, with a seafront promenade, a modern marina and the everyday amenities that families and active retirees look for. Compared with some neighbouring towns Loano also offers good value, making it an attractive entry point for buyers.

Listings range from beachfront apartments with balconies to flats in the lively old town and hillside villas overlooking the Ligurian Sea. Buyers here typically want a family-friendly second home or a rentable holiday property next to a sandy beach. Access is easy: the A10 motorway runs right past the town, and Loano's own station on the coastal line links it conveniently to Genoa, Nice and beyond.
