Nice

We loved 5 Terra Bay! The location was the best! The king bed was very comfortable. And the noise level at the apt was not real loud. So we think it is well insulated. We love Vernazza and this was our 4th visit in the last 20 years. We plan to return someday!

I stayed here with my husband and our two teen girls. We all LOVED it! My girls loved the quirky decor and I loved that it was super clean. The location is unbeatable - absolute perfection. You can open the shutters to the colourful square below and a great view of the sea/harbour. The host was kind and helpful in all our communication with her. Thank you!!!! Would absolutely stay here again.

Only negative comment I’d have is a couple of light bulbs were burnt out. Other than that it was great. Right on the main square, lots of food & beverage options right outside the door.

Decor was lovely. Location was fun and lively. Altogether a great stay. Thank you!

The apartment itself is adorable, comfortable, left suggestions for food and activities, and plenty of space for the 4 of us. The location could not have been better for the sleepy town of Vernazza. Being right on the Piazza Marconi with a view of the water, and the sounds of the italian days and nights could not have been more perfect for myself. My teens may have enjoyed a town with a few more things to do, but I enjoyed the quiteness and seaside vistas. We absolutely enjoyed the hiking to Monterosso (literally the alley staircase next to the apartment entrance) as well as a sunset hike back from Corniglia was the perfect day. And then with use of the Cinque Terre Train card we could pop down by train and hike and enjoy the southern towns as well! We could have stayed at least a week and will be back! As with many italian lodgings, the shower was small and the staircase steep, but again, this active family found that charming and did not limit the fun :) It was the shoulder season (March) and so it was fascinating to watch the town get ready for their high season with construction and limited food offerings, but ALL the people and staff that we did encounter were happy to share their fabulous town, talk deep into the night about their lives and were wonderfully hospitable! And of course, there were plenty of croissants, espresso, fresh dishes al mare, and gelato options!

Beautiful apartment with all the amenities necessary to explore the stunning Cinque Terre towns. Being in Vernazza at the piazza is a plus and I wouldn’t change anything from my experience. Thank you so much, Stefania. Everything was perfect!

Grazie for the nice stay. The apt was as expected. Great location right by the square and good restaurant. Enjoyed hearing the sea. Beds fine, plenty of bedding was nice, small shower but good pressure. Small, basic kitchen sufficient. Fun decor. Note for anyone with mobility issues, several stairs to get to apt. Recommend taking the train as host suggests or to book parking ahead. We drove and more parking info would have been helpful, when we didn’t book ahead and arrived after parking was closed. We tried calling parking number but had no cell service. But overall, all was great!

This property was right in the heart of Vernazza. Check in process was easy. So many things to explore with hikes and near by towns. Property had everything we needed for our stay.

Perfect location for exploring all 5 towns in Cinque Terra. Decorations are unique and fun. Would stay again

Couldn’t have a better location! The apartment was adequate for our needs and as advertised. I recommend this property! Grazia!

Vernazza is the perfect base camp for exploring Cinque Terre, and this apartment sits within steps of dinnjg, shopping and the beach. The communication with the host was great, We would definitely stay here again.

Location, location, location! Loved the apartment. Right in the piazza overlooking the action. Very comfortable place to stay and relax by the window and people watch. We loved it here. However, if you are a bigger person, you might find the shower too small.

The location and ambiance of the apartment were fantastic. There are so many activities right outside the cute piazza door (swimming / snorkeling, hiking, shopping and of course eating and dinking). We especially liked watching sunsets with gelato. There were two downsides. The first was not having hot water in the shower which could have been a hot water tank issue, but we never asked. Secondly, apartment can get hot, but it’s hard to keep the windows open because the piazza is lovely late into the night. Overall we had a very nice stay.

Wonderful location and the apartment was very interestingly furnished with lots of antiques. The square where the apartment is located is noisy and we had to sleep with ear plugs. The kitchen is very small but fine.

Our stay in Vernazza was only enriched by having the great chance to live for several nights in this lovely apartment-home! i enjoyed preparing a few small meals and soaking in the Piazza and the vibrant energy of al things Vernazza, literally out our window! LOVE the comfort and spaciousness of this apartment.

This is a beautiful and spacious apartment for our family of four! There was some construction/scaffolding nearby during our stay, but Stefania was so warm, gracious, and accommodating to make things work so well for us. Highly recommend!

Clean, well appropriated apartment in an absolutely stunning location. I felt like a local. Great host who was super communicative.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this very centrally located authentic village accommodation. Thanks Stefania for your help in making our time there a very good and memorable one, Angela

Great property with very responsive host. efortless access to property (much better than most). Pros: perfect location in the centre of Vernazza - easy to get to from train. Lots of amenities and restaurants close by. Comfortable bed and couch. Well equipped especially given the size, for example wonderful crystal wine glasses and glasses Cons: Noisy when windows open (right above local card playing men who really get into it!) but fine with windows closed. Very small shower and kitchen - but the price you pay for location

Right in the piazza where everything is happening

Right on the main square, beautiful place. The host is prompt at responding and very helpful.

We really enjoyed our visit to Vernazza. The apartment overlooked the main square/harbor and had great views. It is full of artsy, quirky pieces, including the life size wooden horse and rainbow chandelier. It was comfortable for 3 people, and an easy walk from the train. You will have to climb a set of stairs to get to the door of the apartment. We didn’t spend a lot of time inside, other than sleeping and showering. I would stay there again if we ever go back!

Very charming apartment, decorated with a lot of taste, centrally located in the heart of the village

We absolutely loved this flat—a lovely mix of art and antiques, high ceilings, and beautiful windows with views out to the harbor. The space was immaculate too. We looked forward to coming back “home” to this special place after long hikes. Communication with Stefania was always immediate and helpful. I highly recommend this flat! Can’t wait to come back someday! We loved Vernazza too, of course!

If you pan to stay in Vernazza, this is the heart of it all!! You cannot get better than opening your window to see the sea...and be steps away from the Cinque Terre trail / restaurants / shops. The apartment was the most comfortable of all we rented in 10 days in Italy!

Place was just as expected. Perfect location and seamless check in. Very cute apartment exactly as advertised! Will stay again if we are able to return

The apartment was in a perfect location on the square in Vernazza. Clean and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Host was easy to communicate with and very responsive.

This was easy to arrange for and the owner was very communicative. The place was beautiful, comfortable and couldn’t be more perfectly located for a visit to Cinque Terre.
