A wonderful stay in Monterosso, Cinque Terre feeling like a local. Paulo greeted us on arrival and even gifted us some of his own limoncello & vino bianco. Only a few minutes walk from the beach, train station and wonderful restaurants. We had a lovely view from our window of the seaside. It was great having a kitchen and washing machine at our disposal. You can get a train pass for a few days to visit the other towns and allows you access to the hiking trails. A lovely stay in Cinque Terre.

We loved it!

Thanks to Paolo for his big,clean apartment in Monterosso! The location was perfect and it was nice to wash some clothes in the washer. He had everything ready for us but we didn't feel like cooking so didn't use much. We will hopefully return to the CT again and will stay here!

Wonderful Stay in Monterosso

We had an amazing time at the apartment. The pictures accurately depicted the place. Paolo provided clear directions from the train station, and it's just a short 5-minute walk. He warmly welcomed us at the apartment and gave us a tour. The wine and limoncello he gifted us were truly delightful. The apartment is in a fantastic location, and the air conditioning was a lifesaver. The washing machine and drying rack on the balcony came in very handy. If you have the opportunity to stay there, you definitely won't be disappointed.

Paolo met us at the property and was so welcoming and friendly. He generously gave us a bottle of his homemade wine and a bottle of limonella. The property itself was perfect for our family of 5 (2 adults, 17,15 and 13). The kitchen had all the things we needed. Beach towels were provided. The location is a 5 min walk from the train station. There is a lovely balcony which we enjoyed with a view of the water. It is near the train tracks but when inside the unit we didn’t notice the trains.

Very kind host. Extremely clean apartment. Loved cooking in the kitchen. Appreciated the washing machine. Convenient location close to the sea, grocery store, restaurants. Spent most of our time there on the balcony, enjoying the views after exploring the towns.

Delightful

Paolo and Maria’s apartment was perfect for our Cinque Terre stay. It is roomy, nicely decorated and even has a view of the sea! It’s an easy walk from the train station and even has an elevator. We would stay here again!

Immaculate apartment, gracious hosts, amazing amenities, steps from the beach

Paolo and Maria are simply lovely people. They have put so much thought and care into the design and layout of the apartment. The beds are some of the best we’ve ever slept on. They greeted us like family, even leaving us a bottle of their family’s own Cinque Terre wine. Maria gave us a bottle of her mother’s very own limoncello. Amenities went above and beyond what was listed. We were a family of 5. We had beach towels and umbrellas, an Italian coffee press, even an immersion blender. Maria and Paolo, well done and going above and beyond for your guests in every way. We would recommend this stay to everyone!!!

Just book this place now!

We had an amazing stay here – our only regret was that it was only for three nights! The place is newly renovated and incredibly clean. We were left a basket of pastries and other treats, a bottle of white wine, and some homemade limoncello - which was a lovely, personal touch. There are tons of dishes and glassware, pots and pans, and really everything you need for a wonderful stay. The AC works really well and the location is so convenient - just a short walk to the beach and there is a great little grocer downstairs. And the beds were some of the most comfortable beds we slept in during our entire 17 night stay in Italy. This place is a tremendous value, and I can’t recommend it enough. We had a hard time deciding which town in the Cinque Terre we wanted to stay, and we are so happy that we picked Monterosso. We really loved the vibe there and how easy it was to walk around the town. There are such great restaurants, and there is so much to do. And you actually get a sandy beach! One tip: if you want to go to the beach clubs – get down there early to reserve chairs. They can be booked up as early as 10 AM (we were there at the end of June). And bring eye pillows and ear plugs. The apartment is bright, and you are close to the train, but I slept well all three nights!
