The apartment has 4 bedrooms: one with double bed, one with 2 beds, 2 with three beds.The double-bed room has also a little bed for a baby. From the house you can acceed directly to the garden, where you can rest sitting under the shadow of two big trees. If you want to stay at the sun, you will find a good place on the superior part of the garden, where you can also see the sea.. A little green space near the kitchen gives you the chance to eat in the open air, on a big wood table. The house is situated near the historical center of the ancient ligurian village of Levanto, in a very quiet location, with a view on the private garden and the country behind the house. the house takes the place of the ancient palace Da Passano, destroyed by the bombs in the Second World War. You can still see some pieces of the ancient building. Not far from the house you can visit the ancient church of Saint James. On the other side of the village, very interesting is the church of Saint Andrew and the genoese Castle. The village has coloured houses, as used in the ancient villages of Liguria. With train or boat you can easily reach the wonderful Cinque Terre. In less than 100 chilometres you can reach the interesting cities of Genua, Pisa, Parma and Lucca, rich of important museums and monuments.

We had a lovely stay in the large, very clean appartement, in great location close to the beach and centre of Levanto! Perfect for two families with kids. The owner is very kind. Grazie mille!

Thank you very much for your kind words! Come again: we wait for you!
A beautiful airy roomy old style apartment in an ancient area of town. The apartment has enough privacy between rooms to share with another family. The garden was cool and beautiful (it is technically shared with the other occupants of the building but we never saw anyone)

Italy round trip
Amazing location, lots of space with a nice garden.
Lots of beds and bathrooms. Large dining table and living room.
Well equiped kitchen with a good stove and oven.
Would recommend the day boat trip to the Cinque Terre, a walk to the beach in Bonassola and the fish restaurant at the corner...

Thank you very much for your nice words! I agreee completely with your reccomendations!
Great, old family home, ideally suited for a multigenerational holiday at the beach. Amenities are simple but functional: kitchen well furnished and washing machine, hob and dishwasher are excellent. Furniture iin the living is on the edge of tatty, but the bed are excellent. The terrace, balcony and garden are excellent. The location in the picturesque old part of the borgo but only three minutes walking from beach and shops is absolutely awesome.

Wow, what an awesome place
We loved this very large apartment tucked right in the historic area of Levanto. The bedrooms were large with plenty of large windows to catch the evening breeze. We enjoyed the large living area space as well as a huge table for sharing meals and playing games. Very close by were grocery stores, bakeries, and many restaurants. Levanto is a beautiful community, the train station is close by that grant you access to all the communities in the Cinque Terre national park.

Wonderfull place in historic environment
We enjoyed our stay in this spacious apartment with lovely garden adjacent to the medieval wall. A quiet place while you are in the middle of Levanto. It is well equiped even if you stay with a large group.
We really loved to be there, but a few things should be replaced or repaired. Instructions about the heating, warm water and working of the tv would be helpfull. The only minus was that there was no wifi.

Week in Levanto
We enjoyed the property, which worked well for our group of 7. It was fairly represented. Our only issue, which did not affect our satisfaction was communication. After checking in we had some questions about use and some supply issues. Each time we called whoever answered indicated they only spoke Italian and hung up. The second number asked that we text, which we did. He responded once and brought an extra key, but never again. We got by and handled ourselves, but would have appreciate better response

I am very sorry. It Is not so Easy ti find people Who speak foreign languages in small villages as Levanto
Very characterful large apartment a very short walk away from a bustling town and a great beach
This appartment is fascinating. It must have been built in the 1920s or 1930s in an art deco style, with some of the original features of that period still there: amazing marble floors, an art deco mirror in the hallway, ceiling pendants, old artefacts molded into the wall outside the main entrance to the appartment and an art deco bannister to the stairs leading to the appartment. The appartment also retains the original layout with a separate entrance (locked) for the kitchen and a bedroom beside it, presumably for a live-in made, with the main entrance opening into the hallway and magnificent main room and then large bedrooms. These mean that the appartment retains some of its original 1920s elegance, with a magnificent balcony over the private courtyard at the front, a private garden accessible, and high ceilings and thick walls that kept the temperature in the appartment down during a heatwave.
The appartment's location is also great. It's quiet but a very short walk from the bustling town centre of Levanto and the beach. The station is also a 15-minute walk away, with easy access to the Chinque Terre and Pisa beyond that.
The appartment also has lots of space. We visited as a family of five and there was more than enough room for more people than that.
We had a great stay - thank you!

Neglected property, beautiful grounds and location, disappointing owner response.
A lot of potential, disappointing owner response.
Check in was confusing partly due to language barrier. We arrived to a busy public parking lot and weren’t sure where to wait for the manager. After unloading the permanent parking lot was about .25 miles from the apartment. The main complaint is upon arrival the “luxury apartment” was musty and damp. Furnishings were in disarray, slipcovers…not the ones in the pictures were dirty, torn and stained. There was scaffolding in front of 3 windows and blocking access to the outside dining table off the kitchen. The floors had been swept but not mopped.
When I contacted the owner regarding my concerns they were completely disregarded. Even my request to send someone to mop the floor.

Dear Madame
it is the first time that I receive such a description of my house.
First of all, the car can be discharged in front of the house and after you have to park the car 0, 25 miles from the house. Please, don't play with numbers!!!
I hope you will find , in your voyages, houses like the one you expected. Please, forget my adress!
Wir waren schon zum 2.Mal in dieserWohnung. Sie ist wunderbar, sehr gut gelegen, und eine schöne sehr große Altbauwohnung. Alles was man braucht ist da. Man kann draußen auf der Terrasse frühstücken und auf dem Balkon draußen sitzen und lesen. Das Städtchen ist sehr schön und sehr freundlich. Mittlerweile auch touristischer als früher, aber immer noch mit einembesonderen Charme.
Super appartement très bien situé .. ville balnéaire très agréable avec de nombreuses animations en été et une ambiance très familiale ! Appartement très confort avec de grandes chambres et 3 salles de bain, très appréciable lorsque l’on rentre de baignade à 10 personnes Autonomie maximale pour nos 6 enfants d’âges différents, du fait de l’emplacement très proche du centre ville.Cinque terre accessible en train, à pied et en bateau.Super séjour pour nos 2 familles MERCI
Denne leiligheten fungerte veldig bra som utgangspunkt for Cinque Terre besøk, med en kort togreise til alle landsbyene. Det er også mulig å ta ferge fra Levanto. Dette er en litt større by enn de 5 små, og har mer å by på av aktiviteter og restauranter, og med en flott strand. Leiligheten fungerte veldig bra for 4 vennepar på tur sammen. Noen tidligere anmeldelser klager på klokketårnet rett i nærheten, som slår hvert kvarter. Vi syntes ikke dette var plagsomt.
Die Unterkunft hat eine tolle Lage! Zudem ist der Garten mit den schattigen Bäumen toll und wunderschön! Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen da. Gerne wieder!
Appartement un peu vieillot mais, propre, vaste et bien situé. Un plus avec le parking privé, la fourniture des draps et serviettes de toilette. Le choix de Levanto nous a parfaitement convenu et nous a permis de découvrir les Cinque Terre, à pied, en bateau et avec le train !Et c'est très beau mais il faut avoir de bonnes jambes !A recommander

Merci, Serge, on vous attend pour un autre sejour!
Die Wohnung ist nicht sonderlich modern, aber sehr groß, mit Balkon, Hof, Garten - und perfekt gelegen. Die Vermieter haben sich sehr bemüht und waren extrem entgegenkommend.
L’appartement est très grand, 3 belles grandes chambres, la 4eme est par contre petite et donne sur un chemin passant
L’emplacement est très calme (sauf l’église qui sonne toutes les 15 minutes y compris la nuit) et a quelques minutes a pieds de la plage et du centre.
L’aménagement est complètement vieillot, mais ça a son charme.
Par contre la propreté laisse à désirer.
Place de parc réservée a 5 minutes a pied, précieux parce que le parcage est compliqué a Levento
Die Möbel sind teilweise schon älter, aber gut ausgestattet. Vorne ein großer Balkon, hinten eine kleine Terrasse plus ein Stück Garten. Je nach Sonnenstand immer ein Platz im Schatten zu finden. Man kann alles bequem zu Fuß erledigen. Strand, Supermarkt und Altstadt innerhalb von 3-5 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Mit dem Auto kann man allerdings nicht bis vor die Tür fahren, was aber kein Problem ist. Durch den Altbau ist es auch schön kühl in der Wohnung.

Danke schoen fuer Ihre Woerter! Kommen Sie wieder zu Levanto!!!
L'appartement est parfait avec ses 4 chambres et 3 salles de bains. Certes il est vieillot et il manque certaines choses ( petites cuillères, verres à pied ... ) mais il est calme, à côté de la plage et des commerces. La gare est juste à 10 mn à pied. Le jardin est très agréable pour boire un Spritz !
