You can use the Airlink service with a normal bus ticket (1,5 euros) or the bus+train local ticket (1,6 euros), and with a tourist ticket. To reach the location, you can purchase one single train ticket from “Genova Sestri Ponente Aeroporto” station to "Santa Margherita Ligure - Portofino" on https://www.trenitalia.com/.  You can buy your train ticket just after the landing,  at the arrival hall.
