  • area / size 17,222 sqft
  • Year 2025
  • Location Rapallo, Italy,
  • A portion of the new “Eden Spa – Fitness & Wellness” at the Excelsior Palace Portofino Coast in Rapallo, designed by Studio Marco Piva, has been opened. This marks the first stage of a broader development program currently underway, aimed at enhancing the exclusivity of the hotel’s amenities and aligning them with the most advanced trends in the wellness sector.

    The large SPA, articulated over multiple levels, has been conceived along two complementary design directives: on the one hand, a conservative restyling and enhancement of existing architectural elements; on the other, a spatial and functional expansion of the wellness facilities. The design draws strong inspiration from the surrounding landscape, reinterpreting its forms, colors, and atmospheres to create a contemporary architectural narrative.
