From the very first moment we met Maurizio we loved the place. Not only is the place really nice and relaxing but the host makes the place amazing. He offered coffee and gave us a full rundown of how to visit the area and also recommended restaurants. Also made reservations for a restaurant my whole group loved. Very highly recommended place. We hope to stay there again one day!

“Great stay surrounded by nature”

We had a very pleasant stay here while visiting La Spezia and Cinque Terre. The location is wonderful if you are looking for peace, nature and a more authentic atmosphere away from the tourist crowds. The view over La Spezia is beautiful, the surroundings are full of greenery and the place feels very calm and relaxing. The apartment was clean and well kept, and Maurizio was extremely kind, communicative and gave us many helpful recommendations for the area. He was also very flexible with our late arrival, which we really appreciated, as we arrived after midnight. We were traveling by car, so having a parking place was definitely a big plus. In general, we think this accommodation works especially well for guests with a car, since it gives you flexibility to explore both Cinque Terre and the surrounding areas comfortably while staying in a quieter setting. For us, it worked especially well because we spent most of the time exploring Cinque Terre and visiting relatives and friends in La Spezia and Lerici.

“Just a perfect gateway”

The position was perfect, nice views and tranquility

View and the owner are so nice.

Location, very friendly and knowledgeable about area.

The view is absolutely stunning. The host is extremely welcoming and helpful.

The stay was great. Mauricio was fantastic giving us a good run down on the area and what to do. We wanted to walk Cinque Terre and did in one day which was an effort for a couple of retirees. Mauricio also made reservations for us at a couple of handy restaurants which were both well worth a visit. Highly recommended by a couple of Kiwis.

“We really enjoyed our stay, and we would definitely recommend this place and choose to come back.”

Maurizio is very helpful, friendly and professional. It was a pleasure to deal with him. The apartment complex is very well kept and renovated to a great standard. The whole compound is very clean, tasteful and well maintained. The pool area in particular was absolutely amazing! The kitchenette's had everything we need. The shower had great water pressure. The beds were comfy. On two nights we went (first for drinks only and then for dinner) to Cerroloungu, which is a magical place just up the road. The chef made us the best veggie-lasagne you can dream off, the red wine is something else, and the plum-honey-gelato at the end to die for! Definitely recommend! Our trip to beautiful Porto Venere was another highlight, plus we walked from Monterosso to Vernazza (part of the Cinque Terre), which is a very picturesque walk with great views! Slightly challenging as it's quite steep at the beginning, a bit up and down in the middle, and a good bit down at the end. Maurizio said it's no problem, but some people of our group found it more challenging than expected.

This place is stunning. Beautiful view, clean and nice pool, clean apartment and really kind and helpful host.

“Great location, friendly host, super value for money”

The owner was so lovely and helpful with showing us how to get around. We weren’t aware how in the middle of nowhere we were! I’d defo recommend car hire. It’s also a lovely break if you really want to get away from it all.

“Lovely and relaxing place near La Spezia”

Lovely place on the hills near La Spezia with an amazing view. We were travelling with 3 children and all of us liked the place a lot. The owners are super friendly.

was amazing... I am very often at Italy, but here ai have to go back... really nice person and owner.l, amazing nature and very friendly

The swimming pool. The kitchen. Quiet. The steakhouse Restorante Ciccio e Pinolo. Good recommemdation for scenic sites & restaurants by front desk staff.

“Wonderfully relaxing.”

Wonderful property amidst olive trees on the hills; only 10 minutes by car from the city center. Parking on the premises. Swimming pool easily accessible, well-maintained and clean. Owners gave us insights and tips on how to visit the Cinque Terre & restaurants etc. in the area.

“Very comfortable place to stay”

Very nice place for both, active or relaxing, vacation. The house is placed in hills with views on La Spezia and bit of sea as well. Clean and cozy apartment with a lot of space, quiet and nature all around, olive groves, terrace and easy parking next to the house. Maurizio was very friendly and helpfull, he can recommend where to go for dinner, interesting places like marmor mines, etc. In time of leaving we bought some bottles of olive oil from the family production. If we plan to go to this area again, we have the place selected. :-)
