We contacted the host and met with him by the Church. We were unable to find the unit on our own.

Great view and very clean

Amazing views, clean, good host

Nothing that we didn’t like. Just know what you’re getting into with Cinque Terre and expect a few stairs and hills. If you drive, the parking lot is about a 5 minute walk uphill. If you take the train, which stops at the bottom of Manarola, you’ll have more to climb the whole hill. This is part of the charm for me.

This apartment is at the top of Manarola. Sitting on the balcony felt like soaring in a helicopter, preparing to dive down into the valley below. I can’t imagine a better spot. The unit itself also feels new and renovated: comfy bed and nice shower. Stop looking and book this place!

This apartment is beautiful, in a perfect location, has all the amenities, comfortable bed, sound proof windows, and the view is the best! This apartment is also such an amazing value. We highly recommend it!

The location of the apartment was excellent. There is a steep hill you have to go up to get to the apartment, but the view is worth it. It looks over the entire town with a great view of the ocean and mountains. It’s not super fancy but it’s very nice. We didn’t plan on staying in the apartment too much so it was just perfect. Giovanni kept in touch with me so we could meet up for the key exchange and was very nice. I definitely recommend this place. I hope to go back in the future.

The location was perfect, with the most stunning view, luxuriously furnished and updated with the most comfortable bed and sofa bed. Giovanni is the most helpful and welcoming host.

This apartment and its host Giovanni truly deserve a 10/10! The apartment is modern, clean, spacious, nicely decorated and had everything we needed for our stay. We appreciated being able to use the kitchen for quick meals, and that we were provided with more than the basic amenities; things like having access to a drying rack go a long way. The space and view are as nice as they appear in the listing photos: from the balcony, you see the church square, opposing terraces, and rooftops leading down toward the sea. Looking west, you have a clear view of the sunset! The living/dining area get plenty of light and there's a sofa facing the balcony, so it's a nice place to relax indoors as well. The location is very peaceful, as it's at the top of the village and away from the tourist crowds. There are quite a few flights of stairs up to the apartment after ascending to the top of the village, and while this didn't bother us, it's worth noting. Even still, the train station is a quick walk away and it's also possible to access some trails from the upper level streets without needing to descend into town. Grazie mille!

The property is newly renovated, well appointed with kitchen supplies and VERY clean. It has a great view of the town from up top of the village.

There are a lot of steps to get to the property. It is worth it for the view though

The view was amazing and it was also clean and tidy

Absolutely perfect. Everything needed was provided and the host, Giovanni was very helpful.

Stayed in October 2023

Everything was amazing! It is all the way up the hill in manarola so it is a steep hill to climb and lots of steps to the door, just as a note. The balcony is right next to the bell tower which rings every half hour, but we never had a problem with the noise.

Giovanni was a fantastic host and helped make our stay amazing! The apartment was very clean and spacious, and the view was incredible! We stayed a couple nights for our honeymoon and the location was perfect! The balcony was lovely to enjoy a glass of wine or a meal. I definitely reccomened if you want a sea view!

We didn’t like the fact that we overpacked for our stay in Cinque Terre.

The view from the apartment was the best in town however, with the amount of luggage we were carrying it was a challenge to get to there. The apartment is fully equipped and was nicely decorated. Giovanni made himself easily accessible although during our stay everything went well and there was no reason to contact him. He also was very helpful with dinner recommendations.

Cannot fault this property at all.

Exceptionally clean and a great host with lots of knowledge of the region. Beautiful views from the balcony of everything there is to see in Manarola. Perfect location for a relaxing getaway. The view of the sunset from the balcony is second to none!

It is not connected to the apartment which was perfect! Nevertheless, it is better to be aware that good restaurants are full and booked! Only tourist places, especially the one in front of the sea are available for high price and low quality. So don’t make the same mistake as us, book your restaurant 24h in advance!

It is a fantastic place, with a unique view from the terrace. There is an immediate wow effect that we loved. Some water and beers were waiting for us and a typical Italian coffee machine with quality coffee was available too which we found nice. Our host was great to introduce the apartment and the things to do in the area. The apartment is super quality, nice design, very functional.

To be picky, the verandah receives the afternoon sun and is quite hot. There is a little umbrella in the cupboard, a full shade sail would make it perfect.

The apartment had a fantastic view and was modern, cool and well equipped. Giovanni was helpful and responsive. The view over Manarola, vineyards and sea was beautiful. The air con worked well and the kitchen had a good range of utensils. It was a great base to see Cinque Terre.

Everything was great. Can't critique it and would stay here again.

Great location. Easy to walk into the main part of town. Apartment had everything we needed. Loved the balcony. Giovanni gave us an excellent briefing on arrival.

Stayed in June 2023

The apartment is very high up, so there are several steep steps to reach it. Fine for us, but be cautious if you find steps difficult.

The apartment is very comfortable for two with a gorgeous view over the village and down to the sea. We loved sitting on the balcony enjoying the sun, occasionally retreating into the shade of the living room to cool off.

The stairs are a bit tricky with luggage, but that's probably everywhere in Cinque Terre.

The apartment had an incredible view from the balcony! The place was clean, modern and comfortable :) The host is friendly and helpful.

the view is absolutely amazing, probably the best in Manarola

Giovanni was excellent at communicating. He would respond quickly and the hand over of keys was easy. Giovanni offered to help carry luggage which was very kind. He provided a detailed and thorough explanation of the area such as how to get around, features of the apartment, recommended restaurants etc. He takes a lot of pride and care in his apartment. The photos are extremely accurate and there are views from every window. The balcony has sufficient space and the views are exceptional.
