The property is perfect. The view, balcony & patio is even better than the photos. Clean, with extra amenities. Because of the extreme heat only an air conditioner would have improved stay (but it clearly stated NO AC). HIGHLY recommend visiting. Enrico is an exceptional host… brought in suitcase & saved parking space for us.

Our recent stay at Manarola was wonderful. The hospitality was exceptional - Alessandro met us at the train station and personally showed us around the city. Understanding a bit of the city’s history, culture and good spots right from the start was amazing. The appartment was spacious, clean and equipped with everything we needed. The outdoor dining area and the balcony offered the most stunning view in Manarola. Many thanks, Alessandro, for an incredible experience!

Wonderful appartment with lots of space Very nice host, it was the perfect end of our trip in Italy

Loved it.

Great stay and property! Host was very nice and accommodating! Loved Manarola!

We enjoyed our stay Manarola! The home has an amazing view and had everything we needed. The shower area is a little tight so might be difficult for some but had plenty of hot water. Enrich was so kind and walked us around the town even though his allergies were bothering him and we had great conversation. The restaurants below can be a little bothersome for those wanting to get to bed early but the view is so worth it! Would stay here again if we have the opportunity to go back to Cinque Terre.

Enrico's property was perfect for our family! We had plenty of room, enjoyed the amazing view from the 2 balconies and appreciated his helpful tips. I fully recommend his rental.

This is a cozy, well-furnished place to stst in Manarola. You'll have a absolutely phenomenal view of the ocean and easy access to the train station for reaching the other towns and the water. The owner is quite helpful as well. The two notes I have is that this place does require climbing a bunch of stairs (it's on the top floor) and that the shower is somewhat small. But if those aren't dealbreakers, I'd recommend this rental

Wow-What an apartment! The balcony overlooks the main thoroughfare through Manarola, and we had spectacular sunset views. This place is awesome. Very comfortable, and Enrico’s tour of the neighborhood upon arrival was great.

We enjoyed 5 nights at this property. Alessandro gave us a nice walking tour of the area on the first day. He is obviously very proud of his Village. The property location was perfect and the views amazing. The property has everything you need and the advertised photos are accurate. If you are a very large person, the shower may be small for you. Took the train to visit all the towns as well as ferry to see them from the water. We highly recommend an all day ferry ticket at least once and be sure to visit Porto Venere which is not reachable by train but is a stop by ferry. High recommend.

We loved our time here. We visited in late April 2023, and loved Manarola and Cinque Terre. It's a special place. Regarding the apartment: it is clean, spacious, and well-stocked. The 2 bedrooms and the living room all have doors, so if we were a larger party, everyone could have had their own private space. The master bed is super comfortable. WiFi was good. Regarding the location: the location is perfect and idyllic - it is a short walk (maybe 5 minutes) to the train station and is in the center of Manarola, steps away from the sea. We sat and enjoyed the sound of the sea and the views many times from the 2 balconies. It is close to everything, but also very quiet and peaceful at night. One thing to note about the apartment, and Manarola generally, is that there are a lot of stairs. It was not a problem for us, but if you have any mobility issues, Manarola might not be the best choice for you. Regarding the host: He was helpful and friendly - he met us at the train station and helped us with our luggage. Then he took us on a guided tour and showed us his farm in the terraces. He even picked us fresh lemons! Plan to do this walk with him if you can. Arrive in good shoes and be ready for about 45 minutes of hiking. So worth it! Our host was also responsive - we had some trouble figuring out the heating one night and our host quickly came and showed us how to operate it. Overall 10/10. Would highly recommend. Food tips: If you're looking for a quick healthy lunch, try the veg salad at "Fooderia" across the street. Yummy and affordable. And Trattoria dal Billy was quite good for dinner.

Such a great stay in Manarola!!!! Enrico was so kind and accommodating!!! He gave us a personal tour around town and showed us his lemon tree and gave us fresh lemons!!! The view from the terrace is gorgeous and such a nice sunset view!!!! Highly recommend!!!!!

The online pictures don’t do this charming apartment justice. It is VERY roomy, offering a great front deck over the Main Street with a view of the harbor, a large outdoor covered patio out back (also with a decent view). The main bedroom is very large with tons of closet space. The second bedroom we used as a closet as we didn’t need it, but it was nice to have a room to shut away our backpacks and clutter. Kitchen is fully stocked with any implement you would need, including a clothes washing machine. Allesandro gave us a full tour of the village and surrounds, as well as his personal garden space on the hillside. Highly recommend!!

This property has an excellent view of the Sea and Central Manorola. The Host provided a wonderful personal tour when we arrived (taking out picture at various spots he liked). Very clean and provided swim towels and snorkeling items. Only negative thing is the shower is super small but doable. Very clean and not only 1 but 2 balconies with views. We had to check out a 10am but train was at noon- he stored our luggage for us until our train left. I would recommend this to anyone visiting! He also recommended the Cinque Terre pass- which saved us on all the local train rides/toilet fees. Wonderful property and host!

Enrico was so kind and welcoming—he met us at the train station and offered to carry our bags for us. Communication was great. He was very responsive and even though his English is not perfect and my Italian is very rudimentary, we had no issues communicating at all. The apartment itself is large and clean and had just about everything we needed (a microwave would have been handy, but there are other ways of reheating leftovers). There is no A/C, but there are a couple of floor standing fans that were enough to keep us comfortable in early September. It is on the top floor so if you have mobility issues, that could be a problem (as would most of Cinque Terre). All that said, the real star of the apartment is the location. Very close to the train station and an easy walk uphill to places like Nessun Dorma or Trattoria dal Billy. The balcony off of the bedroom and living room overlooks the main street and the marina and gives you a spectacular view of the sunset. The secondary balcony behind the kitchen also has a nice view and was great in the morning for breakfast. A wonderful stay.

The apartment was in a fantastic location overlooking the sea and it was spacious and clean. There is a balcony plus a deck with windows that provide a wonderful cross breeze. There are two bedrooms plus a pullout couch which allowed our two boys to sleep separately (which they appreciated!). And the kitchen is nicely appointed with a fridge, stove, coffeemaker and washing machine. No dryer but clothesline off the balcony allowed for clothes to dry quickly in the sea air. Also Enrico is a wonderful host who truly loves Manarola and takes the time to show you around and take pictures you will treasure forever. Highly recommend!

This apartment is in an incredible location, within steps of the waterfront and the Main Street, yet high up enough to have privacy and relative quiet. Enrico was wonderful, meeting us at the train and providing a short tour of the town to help orient us. The two decks were fantastic to enjoy the view, and the large back deck has cool breezes which were welcome on a hot day.

Can do no better in Manarola (and CT). Great attention by host Enrico and absolutely stunning property amongst the action of Manarola. Mere steps to water and restaurants. Apartment has the most stunning views from 2 balconies. Can’t go wrong.

It was a great location and a very comfortable property. The owner gave us a full orientation tour of the property and the town.

We stayed as a family of four in this beautiful property and it was the highlight of our trip so far. The front balcony, back patio, and location couldn’t be more perfect for enjoying all that Manarola has to offer but the tour of the city Alessandro gave us on arrival made it even more special. He brought us to all of the best photo spots, told us the history of the city, and even took us to his farm on the hillside and gave us lemons to enjoy while visiting. It would have been nice to have air conditioning but with the breezes and nice climate of Manarola this wasn’t much of an issue. We loved this experience and are so grateful for the kind hospitality we received. We will definitely return! Grazie!

Amazing stay with Enrico! The apartment is amazing with an incredible view but the best part is Enrico himself. He took us on a walk of the town and explained everything about Manarola plus he picked us lemons! He is such a nice man. The apartment is very spacious. Highly recommend.

The owner took us on a tour of the whole town that was amazing, awesome experience and amazing hospitality. Only tough part is it does not have AC and the wifi hardly works. But the location and property are perfect. We had a great stay.

Enrico's property was spacious, clean, and well equiped. It was centrally located and it had very nice balcony facing the street and a nice outdoor sitting and dining area in the back. Both outdoor areas have great views of the ocean. Enrico met us at the train station and after showing us the apartment, gave us a great two hour tour of the town. We had a wonderful stay.

I would give 10 stars if I could. I could not be more impressed with a host and the apartment could not have been better located! First of all, Enrico met us at the train station and helped us get our luggage to the apartment and up the many stairs. He oriented us to the apartment, and then he took us on the most amazing 1 hour tour of Manarola!!! He shared his deep love and enthusiasm for Manarola, showed us upper pathways, terraced gardens, restaurant suggestions, viewpoints, explained hikes and more. It was absolutely amazing! The apartment could not be more perfectly located in Manarola, just a few houses in from the sea, with a fabulous balcony view of it, and a large private patio in the back. The apartment was perfectly clean, which is very important to me, and the furnishings comfortable. There is a small shower that would be challenging to a larger person, but we are small people, so not a problem for us. The first evening we sat on the balcony and listened to an amazing band play and sing in the bar below us - just loved it! They ended with Volare and everyone sang along, including us from up high on the balcony! 😊 We highly recommend staying here!

Alessandro and his wife were perfect hosts, starting with a tour of Manarola and following up during our stay to confirm all was well. Incredible views from our balcony - perfect location! So convenient to enjoy all of Cinque Terre!

Un piacevole soggiorno in un appartamento splendidamente situato proprio sopra il porto di Manarola. Abbiamo ricevuto un ottimo benvenuto e un tour interessante dal nostro fantastico ospite Enrico. L'appartamento era davvero grande e molto ben attrezzato, le viste dal bakcony e l'enorme terrazza erano bellissime. Non vediamo l'ora di tornare di nuovo ed esplorare un po' di più!

This was a fantastic stay. Manorola was my favorite of all the 5 villages, very peaceful and calm while still having many options for shopping and eating out. The apartment was tucked away just off the main street which made it quiet but still very close to everything you'd need. There is an awesome view of the sea from either balcony and my group loved eating at the outdoor dining set. Our host was very helpful and greeted us at the train station to assist us with our bags. The apartment was fully equipt with shampoo, body wash, towels and beach towels. This was a lovely stay - highly recommend!

A wornderful experience. Enrico could not have been more welcoming and helpful. He gave us great recommendations of what to do and where to eat (Billy’s) We would stay here again

magic place! Manarola and the property are both magic places! Our host Enrico was amazing! He is the friend you need in Cinque Terre. Be prepared to walk and enjoy this experience as a local will do. I love this apartment, this city and the whole experience was very authentic! Love, love, love it
