This was a lovely apartment with a view of the harbor just across the street. It is a great location for walking all around the historic area. The place you get on the ferry to go to Cinque Terre is just a few minutes . We were really glad we chose La Calata!

Incredible location!

great location with lovely view of the harbor

didn’t like the associate who met us

Marco, who met us when we arrived, was extremely helpful, friendly, and even assisted with carrying our many bags down the stairs to our room.

It just would have been helpful; to have been informed about the man stairs required to reach our room. Otherwise, our stay was great!

very friendly and helpful owner. My room had an awesome terrace

location strepitosa

Everything was wonderful. The location was exceptional, the room was lovely, and the customer service was fantastic.

Great apartment in a perfect location with very friendly hosts. Thanks to Marco and Emanuele!

Perfect location, easy to check in and out, nice time in Porto Venere.

Great location, great view off the balconies,lovely bedrooms, clean, comfortable and Marco was extremely helpful and nice.

Noisy guys out the front on a Friday night but I guess if you are right in the heart of the town, you have to expect that

Location, the room, service. Everything was just excellent!

Dinner parties organised by the local suvenier shop keeper every night in the front of our terrace were bit annoying.

Marco was there when we arrived and was very friendly and helpful. He even helped us call to make dinner reservations and we had a great meal thanks to him. The room is spacious and inviting and the view from the balcony can’t be beat.

I would just say that a shower rack in the bathroom would have been nice to not have to put your shampoos etc. on the floor, but it’s obviously a very minor detail. The place in general is very well equipped.

Great location right on the waterfront. Had small deck so we could "people-watch".

nothing....but parking is at a premium and Marco arranged it for us.

We were blown away by both the room itself and it's location - right on the harbour side in Porto Venere - small balcony out front with small table and chairs over looking the the harbour and its array of super yachts coming and going. The host Emanuele was fantastic and nothing was too much trouble for him. He also runs a booking office for trips and excursions should you want to book anything. He is also very knowledgeable (and passionate) about the area and its history and gave us great information on it when asked. We ate at a couple of the places he recommended and these were superb too. spent the last 3 nights of a10 day tour here and we chilled out to the max and felt fully rejuvenated after 7 days touring. Room furnished and finished to a high standard and also had daily cleaning service which I wasn't expecting

nothing to say here - thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again without hesitation.

Absolutely amazing accommodation. Dont hesitate to book if available. The rooms are so beautiful, very big and full of light. They are in one of the multicoloured buildings you see on all the postcards and so have a view directly out to the sea. Large and great bathroom / shower room. Massive bed.. Amazing AC and bars, shops and restaurants on the same street. I loved sitting on the entrance steps and watching all the local shop owners chatting. It really was a heavenly stay and Marco the owner was lovely and always a mobile call away (I managed to smash two of his lovely wine glasses!) I slept with the windows open so i could go to sleep with the sound of the waves. No mosquitos here to worry about. Opposite the front door is an amazing foccacia and pattiserie bakery to get your breakfast for a couple of euros. I much preferred Portovenere to the 5 Terres villages so would suggest to everyone basing yourself here and just taking the hourly boats to the 5 Terres.

The location of the apartment was very good, bakery and cafeteria were next to it. There was also flexibility regarding the check-in time. The room was clean and had a new bathroom.

It would be helpful if there was a hair dryer.

Location and view

Excellent location and very modern apartment- top marks

N/A

excellent location, we had a terrace with a direct view on the sea and port

matras and pillow are too stiff

The room was impeccably clean and the proprietor went out of his way to be accommodating (offered to reserve a restaurant for us and stow our bags the day we left). Every detail was attended to and exceeded our expectations. The sea view wasn't bad either.

Nothing.
