Overall a wonderful stay in Corniglia! The suite met all our needs , supplying little extras that helped when we decided to stay in for a meal or two. The little market just up the road was simple but had homemade pesto- delicious! The bars, store's & restaurants that were still open the first of November were all we needed. The train was easy to catch taking the 382 steps down perfectly spaced and kept staircase. A wonderful experience. Thank you Daniel & Gabriel for the hugs, handshakes and answers to our queries. Much love from Canada.

After going through a very difficult chapter in my life, my friends & I decided to go to Italy. We chose Ladybug Nest after viewing a number of different VRBOs. Ladybug Nest is paradise. The accommodations were amazing but more importantly, the customer service exceeded our expectations. The house manager was quick to respond to our emails before, during, and after our stay. Thank you again Ladybug Nest! Nikki, Wendy, and Heather

Beautiful, quiet Corniglia

Just off the main area, with beautiful views of the sea. We really enjoyed the location, good kitchen amenities, air conditioning, and ample bathroom (with clothes washer). It was perfect as our base for exploring the area. We recommend and would happily stay again. Very attentive and gracious host.

The view from my bedroom window was spectacular! There are no words to adequately prepare you for how many stairs you will encounter on this trip. I was here a week and my legs will never be the same. In a good way. I haven’t felt this in shape for a while. Daniel was very quick to respond to my delima of locking myself out and Gabriel was fantastic in resolving my situation. Thanks to the both of you!

Enjoyed our stay! Quiet, clean, convenient.

We loved our stay at this property. The whole place was comfortable and easy. As advertised, it's just slightly off the main village so it's quiet (a big thing for me as light sleeper) but still so easy to access everything. The view from the bedroom is exquisite, and it was very clean and well maintained. We loved Corniglia as it has a smaller, less touristy vibe than other villages in Cinque Terre, and the hiking is amazing. If you are looking for a convenient launch pad, this is your place. We were sad to leave!

Fantastic little apartment with a beautiful view. Exceptional experience.

Heaven on earth. The pictures cannot express how beautiful the place is and VERY clean. The host could not be more helpful. It is located right off the main road about a quarter mile up from the village. The first right past a bed and breakfast. Would highly recommend and plan on going back!!! Thanks Paolo for your hospitality.

Beautiful apartment in a quiet location!

This is a wonderful location when going to Cinque Terra, centrally located,! The apartment was very clean and had amazing views and everything you would need for great trip to Cinque Terra. At the end of a long day, you could walk to a local restaurant that had amazing food and wonderful owner and employees if you want to just relax! It was a very quiet building overlooking the sea and local vineyards. We would definitely stay in this apartment in Cornelia again! It is the smallest of the Cinque Terra but one of my favorites! Grazie!

Nice stay with great views.

The apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Beautiful views to the sea from the bedroom. The host provided great instructions for check-in as well as restaurant and other recommendations. The property is excellent, but Corniglia isn’t the easiest village as far as access compared to the others we visited due to the location of the train station. We loved the apartment, but Corniglia wasn’t our favorite village though that is no fault of the host.

Thanks so much for staying with us Josh :) And also for your fantastic review. We love Corniglia exactly because it is different and more secluded, less noisy and packed than all the other villages. It is still the only "real" village left in Cinque Terre, all the other ones are almost like Disneyland in the busy season. The shuttle from station is very convenient and stops a few meters from the house!

More beautiful than the photos!

Paola’s property is absolutely stunning and spotless. It’s nestled perfectly just outside of the Corniglia town centre, making it the perfect place to stay in Cinque Terre, especially during the high season. While we saw many of the other towns in the area were extremely crowded, Corniglia’s location on a hill makes it an exclusive retreat after a long day of exploring. I cannot say enough good things about this stay. Paola and Gabriel were not only welcoming, but readily available to meet our every need, going above and beyond. I would absolutely stay here again for any other Cinque Terre trips!

Fantastic little spot

We loved the views from place and large windows. It was quite and away from hustle and bustle yet steps to the town, restaurants, hiking trails and caffes. Paolo was super responsive, answered our questions so quickly and so helpful. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom perfect. The shuttle to and from the train station can get full, so just be prepared to walk. We like walking so no problem for us. This spot was ideal for the 2 of us. It was great. Would highly recommend

Great place in Corniglia

We stayed at this property in August and therefore it was very hot and humid at the time. As this place does not have air conditioning, the fan was our saving grace to sleep at night. This place suited our needs nicely and we enjoyed staying in the wonderful little village of Corniglia. There is a shuttle that drops you off directly in the village of Corniglia and then you walk for 5 minutes to this property. If you walk up to this place from the train station it is a walk that requires a little stamina in the heat, especially if you are taking up luggage.

A wonderful apartment with a stunning view

Although our car broke in the serpentines of cinque terre (I recommend coming via train), Paola helped us very much with everything and was very kind and accommodating. We were very thankful for her and her understanding. The apartment is exactly as in the pictures. Just simply beautiful and stunning with the view. Corniglia is exactly in the middle of the five towns, so you get in every other town very fast with train. We would come again, but next time with train 😄🙏

Grazie Andreea :) It was such a pleasure hosting you and your daughter. I am happy you enjoyed it despite the terrible first day with broken car. You are right about Corniglia, positioning is strategic, if you want to hike or explore you are in the middle of it all. And it's also still authentic and not overwhelmed by tourism :) Grazie and til next time!

Absolutely beautiful!

So amazing to stay in this wonderful home! We wanted to do Cinqua Terra but not be in the heart of the towns. The Ladybug was remote enough and at the same time close enough to everything. We parked the car and use the very convenient trains and ferries to get around. The bus looked helpful too but we committed to walking up the steps to burn off all the delicious food we were eating. We aren’t hikers but ran into many who were really enjoying themselves. The Ladybug had amazing views and a very pleasant breeze blew through the home the entire time we were there making it such a comfortable and restful place! I highly recommend it!

Perfect spot

The view, the excellent service and cleanliness, the location and most of all the friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts--all of this made our stay in Corniglia a true joy. We took the bus up the hill and arrived without complication. Gabriel was there to ensure an easy turn around. We arrived early and he brought our bags in to keep them while he cleaned and we went to town for provisions. We liked just being a little bit on the edge of town and spent a lot of time just gazing at the view. We hiked to both adjacent towns on well marked trails, swam at the cove, and dined at several Corniglia establishments. Cooked in the well equipped kitchen, as well. Cannot recommend more highly.

Lovely clean apartment in a magical place—not a two bedroom!

We adored Corniglia and this apartment was adorable and spotless and well equipped. Good communication from the owner/manager who offered a ton of fabulous suggestions/tips about enjoying the area. My only complaint is that the apartment is listed as a two bedroom andBecause there are photos with two different bedspreads, it is deceiving. It is really a one bedroom with a fairly uncomfortable sofa bed in the living room. Would be perfect for two people but it was not spacious enough for our family with two tonight teenage daughters. Should really be advertised as a one bedroom with a sofa bed

Hello Dori and sorry about the confusion, but I think the listing and photos are quite clear. I must admit though, that the guests that visited after you had the same complaint about the sofa bed. It was new, perfect and very nice but evidently something must have happened because we checked it the other day and as you said there was definitely something broken. I am very sorry. We have now changed it with a new one because it was the only thing that could be done, but at least now our guests will have a comfortable sleep!

Spectacularly wonderful rental. Modern luxury in the Pearl of Cinque Terre, Corniglia. Because this ancient town is a bit harder to access, it is spared the hordes of summer tourists. For those staying a few days and especially hiking, the extra steps (or shuttle bus) is a small price to pay. And “Ladybug’s Nest” and the other new rentals in this building, are a treat. High ceilings, big windows, modern appliances, comfy beds, and all the amenities in a 1,000 year old town where luxury is not easy to come by. This particular unit keeps remarkably cool. While it only has one bedroom facing the ocean view, the cool breeze makes up for it. Great help from the host. So happy wr wound up here!
