This was the perfect place to stay in Cinque Terre!! I would rent this apartment every time and recommend it to others.
There are a few things critical to us when renting from VRBO and this one hit all marks!!
A few of the highlights:
- location, location, location. This was our first time to Cinque Terre and read so many different opinions about which city to stay in. I would stay in Riomaggiore every time! Some people may want a quiet, sleepy town and I believe the other towns may offer this. However, this one had just the right element of energy during the day and evenings, yet nice, quiet mornings and evenings to enjoy.
Apartment: perfect location. Although up a steep hill, it was great exercise each day, enough out of the hustle and bustle of the town, yet not too far of a hike each day. We enjoyed a quick walk in the morning to get coffee and breakfast at the shops or to run out for a bottle of wine at night to enjoy from the balcony.
The beds were super comfortable, the A/C worked great (critical given the extreme heat this summer!) and the washer and dryer lines were much needed and used! The bathrooms and kitchen were well stocked and updated.
Veronica, the host, was a doll! She was great to communicate with, dropped off laundry soap when we ran out and even came by to check on things or wave to us from across the way when she saw us sitting on the balcony. I felt like we made a friend for life in Cinque Terre!
I can't imagine a better place to stay when visiting this beautiful place.
