The old town was interesting with a view of the marina. The restaurants offered good quality food at reasonable prices. We had excellent pasta and rice dishes which had fresh fish. It is easy to walk everywhere and the trains were on time and resonably priced.

Unfortunately, the large covered market was closed due to a fire. However, the Friday weekly market was impressive - must be more than 200 stalls! A short bus excursion to the Giardini Hanbury was very good (but you must be physically fit, as on a steep hillside down to the sea)

Ventimiglia is a traditional border town with beaches, an old quarter, a market, a new marina and usual choice of cafes and restaurants. Excellent location for visiting nearby Italian towns and french towns are easily reached using reliable trains. Great location for visiting Hanbury Gardens (15 minutes by bus).

We liked that Ventimiglia is very close to popular places such as Monaco, Menton, SanRemo. Day trips very easy to do. Some areas of Ventimiglia were dodgy but overall people very friendly, prices reasonable and beaches not overcrowded

Ventimiglia is a little gem of a place. Overshadowed by Nice, Monaco and Menton, but take that extra few kilometres into Italy and you will be well rewarded. Great food, super beaches and everything is a short walk away.

We stayed in Latte, a taxi ride out of Ventimiglia in an agrotourism hotel. It was nice to be in this quiet spot and although it was a steep climb up to the property the views were glorious. We had the breakfast provided and otherwise bought food from the very good supermarket in Latte. The only thing that would have been useful would be to understand a bit more about the public transport options. There were buses but it seemed we would have had to catch 2 and not knowing the area didn't want to chance not making connections so we got a station taxi. Our main reason for coming was to see the Hanbury gardens, and they were stunning but not for the feint-hearted with lots of steep climbing.
