Location is close to Manarola train station - handy when you have luggage. The room has a balcony overlooking the main square - great place to people watch. The doors and windows are nicely glazed and cuts out sound from the busy square. Airconditioning works well. You can hear the trains going by at night - did not bother us. Hosts were friendly and run the gallery below. Great base for a gorgeous town.

3 Day Visit

Location was very convenient, and unit was clean. The owner was very accommodating and had all of the essentials and more in the unit. Our only issue was parking, but this appears to be an issue for everyone. We got there in the afternoon on Saturday and had a difficult time parking. We had to wait a little while until later in the afternoon to find a spot. Better to arrive later in the afternoon or take the train.

Great place! Can't get closer to the train station!

Great apartment for 2 adults and possibly for a couple with one or two elementary or teen kids that can share the fold out bed in the living/dining area. Sebastiano is a great host and his apartment is at the end of the tunnel as you enter the town! You can't get a place any closer to the train station...so no lugging suitcases through the steep walkways in town! We are in our 70s and appreciated Sebastiano's help getting our luggage up the single flight of stairs into the apartment and arranging help to get our luggage back to the train platform at the end of our stay. (There are stairs to go under the tracks and back up again at the train station.) We had a wonderful time visiting all 5 towns in Cinque Terre plus Levanto. We hiked between Manarola and Corniglia one day and between Corniglia and Vernazza another day...using the apartment in Manarola as "homebase" for 5 nights. The apartment is updated, windows open to the square, but close to block out any unwanted noise from the street. Secure internet, great lighting, glass cook top stove, remote control heating/cooling... There is a great little breakfast place across the walkway and a mini-market a few doors up from there. We'd stay there again if we are in Cinque Terre! Grazie mille Sebastiano!

Fantastic apartment in an excellent location

This great little apartment is an ideal base from which to explore Cinque Terre. Located very close to Manarola Station with minimal amounts of stairs/slopes to navigate with luggage, it is convenient, comfortable and stylish.

Accommodating hosts

Our arrival was delayed twice, first by a flight that arrived late, and then the trains were also running behind, but the host remained cheerful and patient and waited for us even though it was late into the evening. The location was central and close to the train station which was fortunate after a long day of travel. The apartment was clean and modern, with everything we needed. The host and his son went above and beyond to help us find a place to eat, accompanying us to restaurant after restaurant to see if anyone would take us (most were closing up). Finally, after climbing up a long hill, we were introduced to a lovely terraced trattoria that seated us right away. We were grateful for the extra efforts by the host and his son. The next day after checkout, we were allowed to store our luggage while we went exploring up and down the Cinqueterre region, another bonus.The host's wife, who watched our bags, was gracious and attentive. The only drawback of this stay was the train noise, which was infrequent and brief, but still audible overnight. Other than that, we thought it was great.

Property was clean and extremely comfortable. Located close to the train and in the center of town. Even had a balcony overlooking main piazza that was great for people watching. But what made this stay extraordinary was the owner, Sebastian and his wife Francesca. Amazing people that offered their guidance and assistance whenever needed. They were always available to answer questions and provide directions. I will definitely be back!!!!

Sehr schönes und sehr gut ausgestattetes Apartment mit schönem Blick von der Terrasse auf den Dorfplatz. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Vermieter sowie unkomplizierter Checkin und Checkout. Es sollte einem bewusst sein, dass man die Züge auch in der Nacht sehr deutlich hört und auf dem Dorfplatz vor 7 Uhr das Leben beginnt.

He stayed in constant contact with me, helped arrange for luggage and met us at the door. The apartment is located perfectly in town and it is wonderful inside. We will absolutely come back!

Great stay in Manarola!

This is a great clean and comfortable apartment centrally located near the train station. Despite being so close to all of the crowds, I found that is was amazing quiet. It is close to the local market and multiple restaurants. We didn’t have to carry our bags up any steep hills like many other visitors. If you plan on staying or visiting anywhere in Cinque Terre you WILL have to walk up many hills and stairs. Sebastian was lovely and super accommodating. He helped us coordinate a reservation at a local restaurant in advance. The Trattoria Billy served an excellent seafood antipasto and grilled fish of the day. The apartment comes with lots of small extras including coffee/tea, water bottles, earplugs, area maps, books and a small balcony overlooking a piazza for enjoying coffee or wine. We would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic stay and amazing host!

Sebastiano was nothing short of fantastic. He was extremely hospitable and provided us with so many recommendations for our 3-day stay in Manarola. The property was just as advertised, the location was so central and it was one of our highlights of the trip. The train is definitely noticeable as the property is close to the station but it never woke us up at night. 10/10 recommend staying here!!
