IMPORTANT INFORMATION: This historic home, directly facing the square of Vernazza and its harbor, is currently undergoing renovation to enhance its comfort and uniqueness. It will be ready to welcome guests in February 2025. Significant improvements include air conditioning in all rooms, a second bathroom featuring a shower/Hammam with chromotherapy and music via Bluetooth from your mobile device, a new kitchen with custom-designed furnishings, and an ice machine, as well as two additional sleeping arrangements (total capacity: 6 people).

This spectacular house, located in the heart of Vernazza, within its characteristic square, conveys a vibrant atmosphere to its guests. Well-furnished with antique pieces collected from around the world by its owner, who hails from Vernazza.

It can comfortably accommodate six people in two bedrooms and the living room: a master bedroom overlooking the living area, carefully and completely separated by curtains, and a second room with two customized single beds, plus a comfortable sofa that can be converted into two single beds for couples. A crib for children aged 0 to 3 years is also available.

Just seconds away from the home, you can immerse yourself in the vibrant life of this village, enjoying aperitifs, swimming, sunbathing, walks, guided tours, and outdoor dining. The house is equipped with all the amenities to ensure you feel at home.

It is the ideal starting point for exploring the Cinque Terre, the Ligurian Riviera (Portofino, Portovenere, San Fruttuoso di Camogli, Rapallo, Santa Margherita, etc.), and the most beautiful art cities in Italy (Pisa, Florence, Siena, Genoa, etc.). This 70 square meter house is organized across multiple levels, which provides a sense of hierarchy to the rooms and enhances the perception of space.

If you are seeking a special and unique place to spend your vacation and relax with comfortable Hammam seating, perhaps while listening to your favorite music, 'La Piazzetta' is the perfect spot for you.

EXTRA:

Final cleaning fee not included, to be paid at the end of your stay: €60.00
Tourist tax of € 3 per person per day, applicable only for the first three days of stay. This amount must be paid in cash upon arrival, as it is not revenue for our establishment but will be remitted to the municipal treasury.

If heaven has a VRBO, it must be this one! Unique is an excellent way to describe this perfect place from the location right on the piazza looking out on the action to the amazing interior decorating and spacious layout. I was expecting great but it way exceeded our expectations. If you visit Vernazza, it is the place to stay. Our host, Stefania did great with communication and is very welcoming. Thank you for such a magical time.

The location of this property is fabulous. Right on the square in Vernazza. Stefania is a great communicator and addressed our questions/issues immediately. If you haven’t visited this part of Italy be prepared to do a lot of uphill walking and stairs. Stafania’s place has 20 steep stairs to navigate from the plaza as well as a few steps in the apartment. My travel partner was disappointed in the twin bed in the very small room as the mattress is very hard. Overall our stat was comfortable with basic amenities.

If you want to be in the heart of Vernazza, this is the place. Live music and the hustle & bustle right out your window including amazing views. You are definitely paying for location- amenities are lacking though- bare minimum (no eating utensils) & bring your own beach towel if you are wanting to go down to the water.

In the heart of Vernazza

My husband, 11-year-old son and I loved our stay at the apartment on Piazza Marconi. The view can’t be beat. The loft bunk bed was such a fun space for our son to call his own. We loved being so close to the restaurants, swimming and shops. Dinner at Gianni Franzi was our favorite meal, but the truffle pizza at Ananossa was also delicious. Pack beach towels if you plan to swim in the cove - a very memorable experience! We made good use of the clothes line and appreciated being able to stretch out on the couch. The buzz in the square at night was fun, but remember to close the windows before bed to block out sounds that start early in morning, such as street cleaners and garbage trucks. Our only recommendation would be to add more fans since it was so hot and there’s no air conditioning.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great location as right at main piazza and near fishing boats. Terrible location in that it is excessively noisy. No AC so no option to close windows. Limited supplies, 1 towel per person for milt day stay. No cleaning supplies, no paper towel, one dish towel. Suitable space for a couple or parents and 2 children. Not suitable for 4 adults. One queen bed and bunk bed room is repurposed closet. No room for luggage and only one person can stand in the room at a time. Important to know 20 steep steps to unit. Fine for us but could be a challenge for some. Decor is fun and view is charming. Easy to check in and check out.

Beautiful apartment in the amazing town of Vernazza. The location was right off the square and was ideal for shopping, hiking the trails or enjoying the beach. The flat was beautifully decorated with sea views. Only thing to note, the washing machine was not in the flat, but was a laundry mat at the top of the hill. Highly recommend staying here if you want to truly enjoy all Vernazza has to offer.

The perfect place to stay for a visit to Cinque Terre! Vernazza is a gem, and we were able to walk out the front door and swim off the beach and from the pier. Delicious restaurant within minutes of the front door. The apartment itself was beautifully maintained - so quaint and comfortable. With three air conditioners (one in each bedroom and one in the main living area)! We had a restful, magical, and very comfortable stay! Thank you Stefania!

Can we give 10 stars??

There is a place that is a slice of heaven, so perfect you never want to leave yet so surreal that you are there. That place is this amazing property in the heart of Vernazza. Stefania was amazing with communication and detail for checkin. The property was clean, quirky, and loaded with modern amenities. The A/C worked great! The view of the action in the marina was exciting. I only wish there was someone who could roll our bags through the stone streets and hike them up the stairs - Hahaha! But all in all perfection!

About the host

Hosted by Stefania Celebes Resasco

Host profile image
I am the daughter of the owner and I do take care of running the house. My name is Stefania Celebes and I was born in Indonesia, as 'Dino', the big wood horse that welcomes guests at the entrance.

Why they chose this property

I love my house where I spent many nice summer holidays and I am happy when visitors enjoy it and experience it's unique mood.

What makes this property unique

I think that Vernazza is one of the few places in the world where you are away from the chaos of the cities, with no cars and believe me, this makes everything different, but only with sun, beaches, nice walks and good food in romantic restaurants.
I am an interior designer and I refurbished the house to make it more comfortable, keeping its character. It is a few steps away from everything (sea, port, shops, restaurants, ice cream shops, rail station....
I can assist you with all the information you may want to know. Ciao Stefania
