Wonderful location

We had a great three night stay at Alba's apartment with two friends.Location is excellent with a beautiful view and very close proximity to bars and restaurants. The town is great to explore and you are not that far a walk from the train station.Apartment has excellent air-con when needed and the view from the lounge/TV room is the best.Thoroughly recommended.

The best location in Sestri Levante

The apartment has gorgeous views of the little bay in front and quiet green space in back. Updated, but with lots of character, there is everything—including an elevator— a family could want for an unforgettable stay in this lovely, lively town.

A Magnificent Five Days

We have rented flats throughout the world, and this one was one of the absolute best. It was comfortable, clean, quiet, and the view was beyond compare. The host left no stone unturned to be certain he had covered any need his guests could possibly have. Wish we could give more than five stars!!!

Family time in Sestri Levante

We spent a week at Alba’s apartment in Sestri Levante; the location is perfect...close to the beach, hikes, shops and restaurants. The apartment is very comfortable and the views are even more spectacular in real life. Alba was very responsive whenever we had questions. We had a fabulous time in Sestri Levante.

Couldn’t Be Any Better

Four “mature” women stayed in this fantastic apartment for 9 days. Mornings were wonderful, afternoons were wonderful, evenings and nights were wonderful. The apartment’s location is excellent and the views are incomparable. And the town is fun to explore and provides easy access to destinations via train, boat and car. All in all an A+.

Perfect in every way

This property is so thoughtfully appointed and even more perfectly situated that it is easily one of our all-time favorite VRBOs. We are sure to visit again. The view was spectacular. The beds were quite comfortable. The kitchen had everything you need to prepare even complicated meals. The nearby chapel is a must visit. The neighbors are all very friendly. Brava!!

Serene and peaceful slice of heaven.

Property layout was spacious and comfortable. Location was perfect. Communication with owner was excellent and he always responded immediately. Well equipped with everything you would need and immaculately clean. And of course the breathtaking view the moment you walk into the apartment.I hope I will have a chance to return to this slice of heaven. We stayed 12 nights and there was plenty to do in neighbouring towns up and down the Ligurian coast.

GREAT IN EVERY WAY

The location is fantastic, the view even more so. You walk onto the balcony and the views of the water are breathtaking, even more so than the posted photo. Adding to that, the apartment is large, clean, well stocked kitchen, close to everything. It was easy communicating with Alba. A few special touches by Alba enhance further the experience. I highly recommend it.

Alba’s apartment was very clean and fitted with all the essentials needed to have a comfortable stay. Check-in was easy, a few fun goodies in the fridge, lemons, simple breakfast items, coffee, tea, and some spices and oil in the pantry. If you like to cook, you will find everything you need. The bed was comfortable, and there’s plenty of storage space for all your belonging. It’s also very quiet with the windows closed. The a/c worked really well, but the living room vent began making a loud noise so we kept it off. Each room is independent which was fantastic. Alba was always available and quick to respond, and it was our decision to have it serviced after we departed. There’s a nice cross breeze if you open the windows in the back and front of the apartment. The only other issue was the water pressure wasn’t very strong, but I also stayed in a newer hotel that had the same issue. These things would not prevent me from renting again! I loved the amazing view, the town, the easy proximity to restaurants, a grocery store, the train station, and the ease of communicating with Alba.

MAGICAL GEM on the historic Baia di Silenzio

It was hard to leave this lovely 3rd floor apartment (has elevator) with STUNNING views of the Baia di Silenzio! Sunrise, sunset, all day, all night! The location is right on the beach and in the center of old town. Groceries, countless restaurants, and GELATO! Loads of hikes to historic places, also with panoramic views. Water is warm and perfect for swimming! The apartment was clean, spacious, well appointed (love the antique wood furnature), and well equipped for cooking and eating meals at home! Cannot wait to return❤️

Perfecto!

This apartment was amazing. Steps from the sand. Steps from the nearest restaurants and bars and shops. A very walkable town. Really don't need a car. Apartment was clean and well equipped. Towels were large and fluffy. Communication with Alba was easy and he promptly responded to my few inquiries. Would definitely come back to this apartment. We came in the off season, but most restaurants and shops were open, and the beach was pretty quiet and peaceful.

Perfect location in perfect town not as busy as Cinque Terre but just as beautiful.

This town beats the crowds of Cinque Terre and this apartment has the best location. 10 steps from a beach far less crowded than the main town beach, next door to a beautiful terrace bar, and on a street with plenty of restaurants. Hostess was very helpful and arranged private garage parking for us as it is located in a car restricted zone. Thank goodness we elected the private garage as the old streets near the apartment are very narrow. That is what makes the apartment so good though, almost no traffic. Accomodated 5 of us easily with room to spare. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
