This is the most amazing place we have ever stayed. The view is indescribable, you’ll never want to leave. Manuel was super friendly and answered any question we had very promptly. The directions to the place were very descriptive and helpful. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Cinque Terre!

This truly is in an ideal location. Yes, there are a million steps, but you are in Cinque Terre so that is unavoidable. When you descend the stairs to the bottom, you immediately arrive in the main area for food and fun. Chiarra was very communicative and allowed us an early check-in. Highly recommend, if you plan to stay in Riomaggiore!

Incredible View!!
Our stay in this apartment was one of the best during our three weeks in Italy . The space was perfect for two people. It was clean, bright, and the bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was also one of the nicest we've seen in our travels. Chiara was great keeping in touch with us and meeting us on the day of arrival. I owe her a special thanks for teaching me how to use the Moka coffee pot!! The view from the patio is amazing and we would have a glass of wine while taking it all in. The steps to and from town are a bit challenging, but you learn to pace yourself and enjoy the view. This is definitely an apartment we would recommend and return to! Mike & Charlene Gilbert AZ USA

Best Stay in Italy
Staying in this apartment was the highlight of my husband and I's 3 week vacation in Europe! It’s a beautiful, newly renovated apartment with an amazing view of the city and ocean and even better, it’s a great price! Chiara was such a great host too. We were going to take a train on a Sunday but there ended up being an all day strike. So we opted to pay for a taxi from Florence because we wanted to get to Riomaggiore so much. The whole time we were figuring this out I was emailing Chiara updates on our arrival time and she was so responsive and great about it! She met us at the train station and then even took my suitcase for me to the apartment! She was such a great host! The apartment is up many steps, but there is a street that is gradual that you can roll your suitcases on and the steps are to be expected in Cinque Terre. The bed is the most comfortable we slept in in Italy and the apartment has a patio where you can view the city and relax on lawn chairs. My only regret was not staying here longer than 4 days!

Nice, convenient, organized! A little tough to find, but once you are there it is an easy destination to get to in a town that isn't easy to get around. Apt to train is literally 5 minutrs!!!

Great location, clean, and cozy! A must!!!
We had a wonderful time. The apartment was cozy, modern, clean and provided the basics for cooking. It had a comfortable queen bed and a clean modern bathroom! Everything worked great! The parking garage is located as soon as you get into town. DO NOT pass into the residential area or the barriers, you’ll get a fine. Martina was very friendly and met us at the parking garage and walked us to the apartment, a 7 min walk with stairs. Tips for the stay: it’s a hike to get around, lots of steps, if you can train in, I would recommend it. We stayed for 2 nights and paid 70 euro to park. We stayed in November (off-season) and the town was quiet. I can’t even imagine what this town is like during busy tourist times. We ended up getting an all-day train pass...highly recommended for 13 euro each. We saw all the towns in one day. Our day visiting all the cities was 7+ miles of walking and 114 flights of stairs...definitely a great workout! Our fav towns were Riomaggiore, Manarola and Vernazza. We will be returning!!!

An amazing little getaway with a large beautiful terrace
This home was perfect for us! We loved sitting out on the terrace in the evening with a bottle of wine to wind down from the day. There are a lot of steps up to get to the place but we had expected that. We also loved having a washing machine. I would definitely recommend this apartment to others traveling to Riomaggiore.

Great property in Riomaggiore with a view of the town and the ocean. A few flights of steps to get down to the Main Street but the view is worth it.

Loved Riomaggiore
Wow!! This was the most magical relaxing place so far on our 3 week Italy trip. Chiara, our host was very kind, she met us when we arrived and gave us lots of information to be sure we had an excellent visit. We toured the other 4 villages, but loved Riomaggiore the best!! Thank you Chiara for everything, we are looking forward maybe seeing you in California someday, come stay with us in the wine country!! Conni and Tom Whitemore from Sonoma County

Amazing!
My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights and I could have stayed for 40 more. The views from this apartment are absolutely breath taking. The apartment was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking. Riomaggiore, as with the other Cinque Terre towns, was filled with tourists, however this apartment location makes you feel like you are alone on a beautiful retreat. The area is perfectly located for plenty of hiking opportunities and easily accessible by train. As I am sure all review has said, be prepared to walk a lot and with lots of stairs and inclined streets.

Stunning view of Riomaggiore
What an amazing place to stay in Cinque Terre! It is quite the walk up to the apartment and then down to the major part of the city- but it is completely worth it! We only wish we had time to sit on the huge terrace and just relax a little more! They were extremely helpful getting us all checked in and answered all questions that we had! If you can manage the walk to the apartment with your luggage (pack light!!) this is definitively a place to stay!
