La Torretta dei Merli with Views

The Merli Tower



A romantic refuge in the heart of Vernazza Cinque Terre



In the heart of Vernazza, La Torretta dei Merli is a fascinating studio with a historic character that combines atmosphere, view and modern comfort. Completely renovated in 2017 and equipped with air conditioning since June 2023, it offers an intimate and evocative refuge with spectacular views of the village rooftops and the Ligurian Sea.



An ideal choice for those seeking a special stay, rich in charm and authenticity.



The space

The studio is organised on multiple levels, making the most of its unique architecture.



The living area is bright and welcoming, with two single beds under the sloping ceiling and a window overlooking the picturesque streets of Vernazza.

The fully equipped kitchen, complete with washing machine, microwave and Nespresso machine, opens directly onto the panoramic terrace, recently enhanced with a sun shade. From here, you can enjoy an extraordinary view of the village, Piazza Marconi, the coast towards Monterosso and the Mesco promontory.

In the highest part of the studio is the tower room, with a double bed positioned to offer a direct view of the sea and the bell tower of Santa Margherita: sunrise and sunset become unforgettable moments.

The bathroom, simple and functional, is in harmony with the character of the apartment.



Comfort and amenities

Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, Nespresso machine and safety gate on internal stairs for greater peace of mind.

Fantastic apartment

Great location, exactly as advertised. Bright and clean … small but not crowded. Stairs are intense, but no more so than the village itself.

Absolutely stunning view

If you are in shape and want a stunning view this place is for you! The steps are no lie and after a full night can be a bit challenging in the heat and humidity to climb. Overall would recommend for the view alone! The shower is one of the smallest I've ever been in and the light switches are bizarrely placed but other than that it is a fantastic location and place to stay!
