Beautiful views, well-stocked comfortable apartment
Daniela was a gracious host and was very responsive to our texts on WhatsApp before we arrived. She also met us and let us into the apartment, which was very helpful. Her clean, well-stocked, adorable apartment is on the 3rd floor and the elevator right next door was very convenient for heavy suitcases. The first thing you notice when you walk in the front door is the amazing view of La Spezia Bay with the islands Palmaria and Tino. Plus in the distance is Porto Venere - a must-see place! When you look out the window in the other direction, you can see the Golfo dei Poeti in Lerici, the beautiful seaside town, better than visiting Cinque Terre! We loved staying in her cozy apartment for 3 days and only wished we could have stayed longer! There is a free shuttle down the driveway at the corner that will take you to San Terenzo and Lerici. We drove our car and found the best parking was at Parcheggio La Vallarta Lerici. From there it is a nice walk along the beach boardwalk in either direction to Lerici or San Terenzo. Places we recommend: Lerici Castle, Papavenere Gelato, Corona Boat Club for dinner or lunch, and shop at 177 Passi Dal Mare for souvenirs. It is worth it to take the ferry to Porto Venere. Mostly, just wander around and enjoy the beauty of the area! Ciao!
