Monterosso al Mare is a beautiful spot. Easy access by walking, beautiful beach, little or no car traffic. Very family friendly.

The Pretty White House was perfect for our family of 4. Our 2 boys had their own rooms, which was a huge bonus for them, and ours had the walkout to the beautiful patio, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine at the end of the day while breathing in all that gorgeous sea air. The location was excellent, close to everything and everywhere and the slight incline up to the house made us feel we were getting just the right amount of exercise after all of the eating we did! After having visited the other towns of the Cinque Terre now, we are very happy that we chose Monterosso for our stay. It was fabulous. The hiking was spectacular, the ease of getting everywhere can't be beat, and it's all within a short distance of the accommodations. Then, at the end of a long day, the Pretty White House was a perfect place to get away from it all, and to rest our tired bodies. Beds were comfortable, the house was clean and tidy, and there was plenty of space for all of us to relax. Communications with Giovanni were always easy and timely, and the check-in process was quick and thorough. We had no concerns or questions left unanswered. Would recommend Giovanni and the Pretty White House for a lovely stay in Cinque Terre. Thank you Giovanni!
