Maybe i did not check, but surprised to see we had to pay 110 euro for two sunbeds at the beachfront. Shuttle worked fine in and out of Rapallo, and to beachfront, very helpful staff, but no flexibility in 1 km more with the shuttle. Stops only one place. But very helpful with taxi etc etc. No tv in bar or other ouvlic areas for seeing VM in footbal nor Sinner winning Wimbledon;-)
