We really liked the aesthetics! It’s super beautiful! The location is so nice! Even though it’s a lot of stairs to get to! Definitely worth it! The staff was super friendly and definitely made the stay very enjoyable! She does an excellent job!

Great location. The top floor outdoor deck has amazing views. Tatiana, onsite staff, is absolutely lovely and very helpful. Just be aware that if you get the family studio it is in the basement and has no windows to the outside. It is by far the largest room and has a private entrance, but it is a little cave like with all of the stone and lack of windows.

The roof deck surpassed my wildest expectations. Staff warmly welcomes us and gave us a tour of the building and beach towels. Very clean, very comfortable, beautiful views.

The property was at the top of the hill in Manarola. Gorgeous views, gorgeous location. My husband and I loved the rooftop terrace overlooking the ocean and Manarola. Gorgeous!

The sun deck was our favorite spot in all of Manarola, the perfect way to watch the sunset away from the crowds.

9 properties in Manarola like Arpaiu were booked in the last 12 hours on our site

arpaiu is the local name of a tiny site characterized by an amazing sea view dominating the open sea and the 5 Terre coastline, watching over the small Manarola harbour. The area and its buildings formed the most important part of Manarola Medioeval Castle that has been built in the Xth century and destroyed by an overwhelming battleships fleet from Genova in the XVth century. Since Castle destruction arpaiu main building stayed in ruins. There was not much left of it, apart from the ground floor thick medioeval dry stone walls and arches, when our family bought and restored it in 1955. Much work was done in order to bring arpaiu back to its original four floor tower-house size. During 2001 we started a new renovation project that ended in late spring 2003. We renovated ground floor as well as other rooms in June 2019 adding AC to all rooms and common areas All the works have been conceived in order to guarantee the respect of the environment and of the building origins.

BY TRAIN: Manarola train station: walk through the tunnel, at the end turn right (up hill), after 15 meters turn right again and walk up hill till you will be in front of the sea: arpaiu Room rental is in Via Belvedere n. 196). BY CAR: you'll find at the end of the way SP370 to Manarola a car park. Once parked, walk down the village till you will find the pharmacy: Via Belvedere is just in front of the pharmacy, walk up hill till Via Belvedere n. 196.

Pre-confirm your booking and arrival time as our check in was a debarcle having to engage the neighbours to help us gain entry as the door code did not work.
Stairs, stairs, stairs, but hey, after all it is the Cinque Terre. Look for the significant yellow building of Manarola and that’s this accommodation. Factor in the wide top floor communal verandah and you can lord it over all the tourists below. Rooms were clean and well appointed with tea / coffee making facilities upstairs.

the view is amazing but is not easy to get there with a baggage... The linens were dirty with hairs on them and the toilet smelled bad. It's nice to wake up and see the sea but with my feeling, I just paid for it.
