Magical

Vernazza is absolutely charming, though if you come, be prepared for climbing stairs and fitting into tight spaces. The rooftop deck is a wonderful place to sip coffee or wine and admire the view.

Great place in Cinque terre

4 of us stayed for 3 nights and explored the towns in Cinque Terre . Vernazza was a great home base, with lits of great restaurants and cafes. It poured rain while we were here, and we were comfortable lounging around until the weather cleared. We would all recommend this place to stay!

Amazing location and view!

We loved our stay in Vernazza. Everything was as described, and there was a bonus of coffee and pastries for the morning. Added amenities were shampoo/ Conditioner and body soap. The stairs are a lot, especially with luggage, but worth the work and effort. Appreciate that this was known in advance thru the description.

Beautiful and clean! Only thing to note is that you must go up multiple stairs with luggage. Better for those more able bodied!

Unique Property with a Great View

Stayed here with two other friends and we loved it! Be aware there are many stairs on the way to the property and within the tower. The view from the terrace is well worth the stairs! The property manager left out complimentary jams and croissants for us and a picnic basket to bring up to the terrace. Highly recommend!

Great place

The place is exactly as advertised. Lots of steps, but that is Cinque Terre and adds to the charm. The house was comfortable and was perfect for us. The view from the roof is spectacular.

Adorable stay in Vernazza

The property was centrally located between the train station and the waterfront. While the kids loved swimming and eating gelato at the pier, my favorite thing was to sit on the rooftop patio and make sure the ferries were on time. We loved it and would use this company again.

Honeymoon

The apartment was great! There are 4 small floors and a small private balcony on the 5th floor (roof). It’s right off the main part of town and is directly on the trail to Corniglia, so if you want to hike the trail connecting the cinque terre towns, you’re also right there. The view from the roof is amazing. I would definitely stay there again!

Cinque Terre stay

This was a great apartment in the perfect location, right on the hiking trail to Corniglia. The rooftop terrace is really relaxing, loved sitting up here and listening to the waves crashing on the rocks. Beautiful view too. Great customer service from the property management team. One thing to just be aware of is that there are a lot of steps inside the apartment - 50 steps total from the ground floor to the rooftop terrace.

Great location. Ocean view from the top deck

Great location in Vernazza, near the harbor area. Great view from the top deck. Be prepared…the description is true. Counting the top, it is 5 very small levels. Very small kitchen area and small bathroom on the bottom. Couch and small table on the second level. Bedroom on the third. Twin bed on the 4th.

Stay in Vernazza while hiking

This was the perfect place to stay while my cousin and I hiked Cinque Terre. The apartment location was wonderful with an excellent view. It is right on one of the trails. You have to go up several flights of steps to get to it, but if you're there, you're already aware of steps all over the place. When you go down to the town, you're right there in minutes. The price was very reasonable and we had everything we needed. I hope to go back and would happily stay in the exact same place.

Such a cool and unique space with an ocean view!

Loved this apartment! Very unique and well located. Clean and well stocked. Roof terrace was wonderful for enjoying a drink in the evening with a view. Located on the trailhead to Corniglia which was nice for a morning hike. Train station is right there. Check in process was easy, their office is nearby and the property managers were very helpful throughout our stay with any questions we had about the area. There are a lot of stairs to reach the property and even more inside so just keep this in mind but this was not a problem for us. Overall this place checked all the boxes for us. The management company manages several properties in Cinque Terre and if I came back I would definitely use them again. Thank you for a great stay!

Great neighborhood and view, lots of stairs

The neighborhood was great! So close to train station. Place clears out in the evenings. House has authentic charm. The stairs are in the listing, but keep in mind they are uneven, twisting stairs and some with only a loose rope as a handrail. Our 10-year-old and husband both fell and had some bruises (normally not known as clubsy people)....so just something to be aware of. Check-in time was a limited window, and checkout procedures were a bit overzealous (potential charges if dishes not clean and away, charges if trash not separated, etc). The view from the deck is amazing! Great place to eat and also get away from the crowds. Kind property managers. Kitchen minimal - wouldn't plan to cook much. Thank you for letting us have this authentic experience!
