Apartment in the historic center in the Cinque Terre
The apartment is located in the historic center, under the arcades of the ancient village in a period house. The house, very cool in summer, is on the first floor and is accessed by a staircase (15 steps); the owners live on the second floor. Free Wifi The house is about 60 meters; has a large living area with a fully equipped kitchen (microwave oven, electric kettle, electric hotplates, fridge with integrated freezer); in the same living area, there is a double sofa bed. The bedroom, separated from the living area, has 4 beds, one of which is a pull out. The house overlooks with two windows on the carruggio. It is very cool in the summer and it does not have air conditioning due to the environment; in winter it has air heating managed independently by the guests. The bathroom has a shower. The wifi network is present. In the house there is TV. The house can accommodate up to 6 people (it has a sofa bed in the living area), but it is advisable for 6 guests for short periods. On request, at the time of booking, it is possible to have a cot for a baby. Pets are welcome. When necessary, you can leave your luggage waiting for check-in and check-out. The house is located near the small and typical piazza Matteotti, where there is a supermarket, a butcher, a restaurant and a nightclub. The sea is a 5-minute walk away; the station 10 minutes on foot. There is no private parking because traffic is forbidden in the historical center; there is a paid parking at the beginning of the country that can be used (when free) for the arrival of the monastic; after which the car can be left on the state road paying attention to the signage. The train, however, remains the most convenient way to get to the Cinque Terre, which are connected almost exclusively by rail and by land. There are five ancient villages on the mainland but must be lived as real islands in the middle of the sea. it's their beauty but with some reasonable discomfort.

The property has a great location for soaking up local charm. The bathroom is quite small, especially for six people. The owner’s mama is precious, but there is definitely a language barrier.

The location was perfect. Quiet and cozy, yet just steps from all of the activity in Monterosso, and no big hill climb to get there. Our kids took the three single beds and we took the futon - it was a bit firm, but we slept great. Must have been all the Cinque Terre hiking!

Great location!
Set back in old town Monterosso, this little place is conveniently located in the center of town. It's very close to a number of restaurants and shops with the beach only a few hundred yards away. It's also close to the ferry boat that travels from town to town. Marianna wasn't there, but her parents live right next door and they couldn't of been any nicer and helpful. I enjoyed my stay!

Excellent choice
We are a young couple with 2 little girls and we stayed at Marianna's apartment last week-end. It was an excellent choice!The apartment is close to everything... And it has everything you might need. Not to mention that the owners are very friendly! It felt like we were staying at friends... If we will ever go back to Monterosso, I know where we will stay :)
My wife and seven year old son had an awesome stay in Marianna’s apartment. Her mom checked us in. Her dad welcomed us with a delightful wine that he makes himself. The apartment is clean, well decorated and very comfy. They let us store our bags in the basement room. Super convenient. Thank you so much for being such delightful hosts! We’d love to come back and visit.

excellent location,best of 5 towns in cinqa terra
well equipped and nice size apartment right in the middle of town very cozy and convenient. Although we did not meet the host as she was out of town but she kept in touch and asked us more than once if we needed anything. She even left a bottle of wine for us in the fridge but as we don't drink alcohol we had to decline the offer. monterosso is probably the best town to stay in cinqa terra and we enjoyed our stay thoroughly.

Many thanks for your kind. And really not to ve at home to wellcame you but we are happy you were will at our home.
Great location, in the heart of the old town, 3 minutes to the beach and ferry but the flip side of it being quite noisy (we had open windows and 2 ventilators on because it was very hot in August). The apartment is quite old but have everything you need. Be aware of mosquitos!
The host is very helpful and great communication.
Location is excellent, and the owners are super nice and were available if we needed anything. We stayed in June and the apartment definitely got hot, but the owners provided the fans which helped a lot. Unfortunately, the electric wiring is old which meant if we had a fan on, we could not use the tea kettle or a hair dryer, as it would blow the fuse. The place could also use better pillows and towels. But otherwise, we enjoyed our stay and are grateful for the owners' hospitality.

Thank you for your review and suggestions. As for the problem of falling, this past summer has been exceptional and in fact it was difficult to be ready; the house is old and normally we have no problems with the temperature. As for the problem of jumping electricity, the problem is not because the plant would be old, but because of the range: in Italy the power for domestic use is 3kw and this is there. Unfortunately we found that the kettle makes contact and blows the valve. We will take care to replace it. In any case, it will never be possible to keep the two ventlarori, the hairdryer and the bolier on at the same time, but this is a less serious problem. Sheets and pillows will be replaced at the end of the season. Thanks again

Great location!
Snuggled in old town Monterosso al Mare, this is a good base for exploring Cinque Terre. The apartment is on the 1st floor (2nd floor for Americans) and the steps are steep and narrow so be careful with large luggage. This is a one bedroom apt. that has three single beds and one trundle in the bedroom which faces the street. The sofa folds down to a bed but it is easy to tip over with two adults (as we did at 3am!). The street is quiet and the house stays fairly cool during the day (we were there in July) and two large fans were present to help us. The bathroom is small but adequate but could use new towels. The kitchen has the necessities but plan to eat out.
Walk to the beach is a few minutes but a walk to the new town is half a mile (mostly flat).
The train station is in the new town so, if arriving by train, you'll have a hike with luggage. There is a local taxi that could ferry you though. There is a tiny Conad's grocery store a few doors down and lots of stores and restaurants nearby.
Host provides lots and lots of tips for things to do, places to eat, and ideas about itineraries. She was very responsive to any questions. Her parents have the apt. next door and will also help but speak no English.
If driving to old town, you'll have to park in one of the three tiny cramped parking lots at 25 Euro a day. Or move your car after unloading and try to find a spot along the road to old town (up the hill). It could be far to park but you can call a taxi to bring you back. A better idea is to take the train to Monterosso from Levanto or La Spezia. Driving to Monterosso is a long and winding one around and over two hills via lots and lots of switchbacks on narrow roads. A ferry also runs between towns that might be an option if you have little luggage. This is also a scenic way to see all five towns!

Soggiorno fantastico! Casa in posizione strategica, vicina a tutti i locali, spiaggia a due passi e 5 minuti a piedi dalla stazione per muoversi nelle altre città. Marianna, la nostra host, è stata super gentile, molto disponibile per qualsiasi richiesta e ci ha dato diverse dritte su come goderci al meglio il nostro soggiorno. Speriamo di poter tornare al più presto!

Danke Urs für deine Bewertung. Die Vasa für 5 Personen kann tatsächlich eng werden, besonders wenn Sie mehrere Tage bleiben. Wir hoffen jedoch, dass diese Unannehmlichkeiten durch den Rest kompensiert wurden und Ihr Aufenthalt in den Cinque Terre gut war. Wir erwarten Sie in der Nebensaison mit weniger Touristen und günstigeren Preisen.
Vielen Dank Familie Corte für den netten Kontakt und die vielen guten Tipps❣️

Liebe Franziska, vielen Dank, dass du dich für unseren Standort entschieden hast. Sie waren perfekte Gastgeber und wir hoffen, dass Sie trainieren oder Ihren Freunden empfehlen möchten, dies zu tun. XXX
Die saubere Ferienwohnung liegt mitten in der autofreien Altstadt von Monterosso al Mare. Die freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Vermieter bewirtschaften einen der ältesten Weinberge des Ortes. Von der Haustür sind es wirklich nur ein paar Schritte bis zu Restaurants, Aperitivo oder Lebensmittelladen (die Vermieterin gibt Tipps was wo am Besten ist). Autofrei heißt, dass man sein eigenes Auto weit vor dem Ort parkt - ideale Anreise ist mit dem Zug. Aber es ist ein fantastischer Ausgangspunkt, um Cinque Terre zu erkunden, egal ob mit Wanderschuhen, mit dem Zug oder mit beiden. Nachmittags noch Baden zum 200m entfernten Strand und abends den lokalen Weißwein und Fischgerichte genießen. Absolut unsere Empfehlung für einen stressfreien Genießerurlaub.
L'appartamento si trova nel pieno centro di Monterosso al mare. La proprietaria, molto gentile, ha fornito le indicazioni necessarie in ordine al parcheggio (lontano dal centro pedonale) e al raggiungimento dell'appartamento
