Andrea has a wonderful property in the heart of Monterosso, it’s a wonderful place to stay to explore cinque Terre - perfect location, great air conditioning, comfortable beds would absolutely stay here again again!
Great location right in the heart of the main restaurants and shops. It’s definitely noisy so keep that in mind but totally worth it - no complaints! Attaching photos of the view from our window!
Perhaps a 2 minute walk up from the beach and 2 minutes downhill from the pharmacy, which is probably the furthest uphill of anything of relevance to tourists. In the midst of numerous shops, restaurants and other lodging. Great base for our 3 full days in Cinque Terre
We stayed for three nights. The location was in the center. Just under great dining and local shopping. Would stay here again!

Stay in Monterosso
It was an excellent location and our host was very likable and friendly. Unfortunately the trundle bed was not working properly and the property was not the cleanest i have seen. it would be great for a family with children but not 4 adults.
My boyfriend and I stayed at this unit in June and loved everything about it. The location was perfect, right above a delicious restaurant. The street was relatively quiet at night, as we were not in the apartment during the day. Monterosso was our favorite stop on the trip and we greatly appreciated Andrea's hospitality. We will stay here again when we return to Italy!

Perfect Location, Darling Apartment & Great Hosts!
We arrived by car and our gracious hosts were so patient in explaining directions and then setting us up with free parking (almost nonexistent in that area). Then she showed us around the apartment and was so hospitable. The location was perfect and so quaint. Cafes/wine bars were right outside our door and the beach was just steps away. Really great location and overall wonderful experience! Perfect for couples and families!

Fantastic, Very central location and attentive hosts. Clean apartment, with all the kitchen items we needed. It is not very soundproof, with lots of noise from the street below and other flats.

Loved it!
Staying in the heart of the old town of Monterosso was a great experience! There are great bars and restaurants right at the doorstep and it is a short stroll to every amenity and transport! Andrea was very helpful (despite the language barrier - we all used whatsapp n google translate) and was there whenever we had questions or needed anything! Highly recommend!

I thank you for your review, I promise I will learn the languages, come back next time .... Andrea
Comfortable, well-appointed apartment in the heart of old Monterosso
The apartment is comfortable and homey, clean, and with new appliances. It could sleep four easily in two bedrooms, plus a dining room/living room and large kitchen. The location could not be better, in the heart of the old side of Monterosso, in the midst of cafes, bars, and restaurants, but very quiet in the evenings. It's about a 10 minute walk from the train station, over terrain that is easy enough with a roller bag. Highly recommended.
The apartment had everything we needed including a washing machine and air conditioning units. Andrea accommodated an earlier check in for us. You may need to use a translation app since Andrea doesn’t speak English. Beautiful apartment in a great neighborhood.
Pros: Location in the heart of the old town. Cons: No air conditioning in master bedroom throughout our stay. Host communicated once to say it wouldn't be fixed until we checked out. VRBO attempted to contact the host further and I did too. No response during my stay to my concerns. VRBO offered no support and told me to work with the host - who simply ignored my messages.Master bed was extremely worn out and uncomfortable. Linens and towels old, dingy and rough.
Andrea was a wonderful host. She checked in days before we arrived and arranged for a time to meet at the apartment. The listing was described accurately. There is a Steep set of stairs to access property, which isn’t unexpected in location, but definitely something to be aware of if traveling with someone who might have difficulty with stairs. Wonderful property would definitely stay again.

Wonderful location right in the heart of town -- really couldn't be better! Nicely renovated apartment that even includes air conditioning, which was critical during our hot and humid August visit. Parking is a challenge, so be prepared ahead of time; we didn't do our homework and couldn't find the correct spot in time for the taxi, so we ended up parking in the expensive beach lot. Regardless, a classic Italian experience!
My wife and I stayed at Andrea's apt. for two nights in October.
Communication with the owner was great, the apartment was very nice and clean, the bed was comfortable and the location is in the heart of Old Town. It's a 10-15 minute walk from the train and 10 minutes to the trail that links Monterosso al Mare to Vernazza. The trail was absolutely beautiful, it took us about two hours to complete (a pretty big climb up and then down) and was worth every step.
We arrived in Monterosso a little earlier then the check-in time and Andrea made arrangements for getting us in early.
Overall I would definitely recommend this apartment to friends.
Thanks Andrea for all your help.
We were so happy with the location and convenience of the property. A challenging drive to get to the car drop off area, but communication with the owner and personal contact with them made it so much easier. Their English is not wonderful but we could communicate our needs. We were in the old part of the town and loved being there. The 17 step walk up was challenging with the luggage, but doable. The 2 bedroom apartment, kitchen and bathroom were adequate but I felt the bathroom needed a good cleaning as well as the mat. No living room...at the dining room table you could sit and watch TV, but who would want to do that when visiting this town.
The restaurant directly below the property is very good but get reservations by emailing. It was a simple process...plus the waitress that looks like Meghan Markle was delightful! The bar across from the property was excellent and fun to speak to the other tourists.
We loved Monterosso and the ease of getting around the area!
Was a great experience. Absolutely perfect for the location and Monterosso experience. The place is old & the power will go out on you frequently if you use the AC but it’s all part of the adventure. You’ll have to carry your bags from the train station through the tunnel to old town (for those of you who haven’t ever been to Monterosso) and up one flight of stairs once you reach the apartment door, but it’s manageable.
The apartment is well located and very-well equipped. Andrea was sick so his wife Gianna met us and introduced us to the apartment and Monterosso/Cinque Terre. Even without any English she was able to give us the information we needed. The apartment had a good supply of necessary tourist information including the train and ferry schedules for visiting all five lands.
The trains operate every 10-20 minutes about 17 hours a day and are free with a pass to the national park (necessary to hike any of the trails).
The apartment is right in the heart of the "action" with many good restaurants within 7 minutes' walking time, 50 ft. from a small grocery store and 0-5 minutes of many interesting shops.
The air conditioning was capable of freezing us out, but was easily controlled with a remote control, and the laundry worked well.
The view of the entire Cinque Terre from the beach--about 3-4 minutes' walk away, on a clear day or erening, is stunning.
Monterosso is a lot of "place", especially for such a small town. The Cinque Terre are definitely not to be missed, and Borgo Antico is a great base from which to experience it.
