    Beautiful view, great stay! A bit of a walk down hill to the beach and up hill to the house, but worth it. There is a pay parking lot by the beach. Had read it was difficult to get bags upstairs, so we left our bags downstairs in kitchen area

    The host was incredibly helpful throughout our stay! She gave clear instructions with pictures explaining directions to the apartment. She also helped set up a taxi driver for us when we had travel issues in a nearby village. Would definitely stay here again!

    The view was amazing and the apartment was clean, spacious and well-supplied. Gaia was a wonderful host - she checked in regularly, offered recommendations, and helped with transport.

    Note to other travelers - it's a steep 15 min walk to the house from the beach area. This would likely be lovely in cool weather (pretty views, houses etc.), but in the hot weather it was pretty tiring. Definitely take Gaia's suggestion to take a cab when you arrive if you have any luggage.

    Nice view

    Initially host was helpful, then became extremely rude and harassing shortly after. I had visitors during my stay and she insisted they were staying even though I told her they weren’t, her family lives in the property next door and will be keeping an eye on you the whole time - was very uncomfortable. Meant to be a house so no daily cleaning service, yet you don’t have a laundry, or access to basic things like more toilet paper or towels. Finally, the location is a nightmare - great views but so impractical for getting to the beach. It’s a 30-40 min walk up /down a very steep hill and that’s only to the beach, the old town / city centre is another 20 mins from there - taxi (if you’re lucky to get one) is 20 euro for a 2 min trips. Nowhere to hire cars in the city. On check out she tried to claim that a door knob which was loose to begin with was my fault and wanted to charge me for it. I would not recommend this place for the price they’re charging. In my opinion - book way in advance so you can get accom in the old town or one of the other cities - manorola and riomagiore are the best looking ones for sure.

    Property response:

    Dear guest I am very sorry to read reviews of this type, I always specify everything in detail so that you can spend your vacation in the best way, in fact as you may have read in the description of the house when you booked it is well highlighted that it is located 800 meters from the center reachable with a walk of 10 minutes (40 minutes maybe if you take breaks of 30 minutes along the lost) and it is equally highlighted that being a house and not a B & B is not included daily cleaning unless requested by the guest. Towels, toilet paper and detergent are provided, evidently not enough for you...As for the neighbors, I find it absurd and offensive of you to say that you were spied on from the moment no one came to knock on your door. Finally, the door handle before your arrival was in good working order, as were other utensils in the house, which I had to replace at my own expense after your departure. My advice? Read up before booking so you can avoid future dissatisfaction.

    House is stunning and the host is lovely. However my only negative would be the location. You do need a taxi or a car if you stay at this property. Taxi is 15 euros each way. We did get used to it and we did walk to the centre but it was an atlethic challenge to do so. The host very polite and helpful. All appliances in the house are new. Beds super comfy no noise at night so really good sleeps. Host left breakfast for us and some sweets in the rooms which was a really nice touch.

    I loved the house and how welcomed we felt by the host. However again, i did not enjoy not being able to walk to the centre’. I can imagine that the pool next door that you can see from the terrace makes a lot of people jelous in summer.

    Great views, host organised transport on arrival and departure which was most appreciative as the hill would be a challenge with luggage. Very clean, welcoming home including a basket of snacks, tea and coffee, the beds were comfy. Host checked in to make sure all was good, which was appreciated, easy and quick to respond when communicating. There is a bus that will bring you part of the way from the village.

    Mindful that the internal staircase is quite narrow, take care coming down.

    The location was beautiful though it was a climb. Gaia got us a taxi for the first ride from the train station with our packs, and when we left after our stay. That was much appreciated! The rest of the time we got our workout in hiking down and back up with a cocktail on the balcony as our incentive! Gaia was very helpful making dinner reservations and recommendations. We truly enjoyed the view and our stay!

    We would have loved to have met Gaia but we completely understand she was busy with a her new baby😊

    Thank you very much for the kind words, I am always glad to read that my guests had a good stay. See you soon!!!

    Lovely clean, quiet modern homely apartment. Everything we needed. Very helpful host.

    Long walk up from the village, can catch a bus although times vary and not very reliable. Taxi fairly expensive.

    The property was clean and had a beautiful view. Gaia had coffee and snacks waiting for us. She also had a driver pick us up at the train station so that we did not have to walk up the hill with our luggage. She was very responsive throughout our stay there. I highly recommend this place and am thankful I got to stay there.

    Location was on a steep hill and if you have a car you would need to be a confident driver. Garage for parking was good but again not easy to access. Apartment was clean and spacious.

    The steep walk back to the apartment but the view is worth it

    Great view for a morning coffee. Everything you need for a self directed stay. We were very thankful for the Taxi when we arrived as the walk with luggage would be tough, but every other trip to and from the accommodation was done on foot even taking the luggage back down the hill. Clear communication throughout our stay and before and helpful leaflets when we arrived to orientate us. Thank you. C&N

    The place itself is beautiful. The view is excellent. There was an assortment of breakfast items for us when we arrived. Gaia was very helpful with anything we needed.

    Nothing to complain about. The location itself is at the top of a hill so you have to do a bit of walking from the beach, but the view is worth it

    The Sunrise apartment offers comfort, privacy, and beautiful views. Live like a local, away from the crowds and enjoy birds chirping and relaxing on the private patio overlooking the sea. This lodging provides a variety of outdoor lounging areas and all the amenities for longer term stay like full kitchen, comfy TV den, large modern bathroom and two bedrooms. The owner is easy to contact and has done a great job making this place warm and welcoming.

    The apartment is split two levels so you need to be comfortable going up and down a spiral staircase. Contact the owner for the initial check in on arrival at the train station. She will help you get a taxi to get you and your luggage up to the lodging way up on the beautiful hillside above town. After you get all checked in, it is easier to walk to and from town after you've gotten your bearings.

    Lovely home with very beautiful views of the sea and hills in a nice and quiet location that is less than 10 minutes walk from Monterosso train station. The house with its very good amenities and setup made for a very warm welcome. All the rooms are spacious and well kept. Gaia is a very caring, attentive and responsive host who graciously answered to all the questions I had. Thanks Gaia! I would love to go back and stay at this place sometime in the future.
