Location, view, and apartment were all Fantastic

Great location, only a short walk down to the beach and all of the shops and restaurants. The shared balcony was a lovely place to sit in the evenings. Marco the host was amazing and went out of his way to tell us all about Monterosso and the best places for everything we could need. We also got caught up in a train strike and Marco went above and beyond to help us make it to our next destination!

Love it! It was clean and super close to restaurants

The property we stayed at is located in the ‘new’ part of Monterosso- it’s a short flat walk from the train and has a large indoor communal lounge area (I think there are only 3 or 4 rooms here). the communal outdoor space was a highlight and we did our own breakfast and afternoon Aperols out there looking at the beach and water. it’s across the road from the beach area and our room had beach views. Marco who manages the property is a very helpful & likeable young man and was very happy to provide advice on the area.

This property requires traversing 2 sets of stairs (~40 steps) which wasn’t a big deal for us (and Marco helped on checkin) but this may be a problem for those with reduced mobility.

The location is incredible. Also the room was bigger than expected. The bathroom was really nice too!

The checkin was a little confusing to get to but Marco carried my massive duffel for me which was really sweet.

10/10 does not begin to capture the incredible experience my now fiancé and I had at the affittacamere lo scoglio guesthouse. The room was spacious, clean, and adorably decorated with modern accommodations such as a mini fridge and automatic blinds and a large comfortable bed. There was nothing more amazing than waking up and looking out our window at the ocean which was truly just a few steps from our front door. The below picture is the view without ever leaving the bed. The private bathroom in our room was also incredibly clean, spacious, and modern. Getting hot water was easy and the shower was actually quite roomy, unlike some others we’ve seen in Europe. The closest beach was absolutely stunning- overlooking the Statua El Gigante with crystal clear and warm water and surprisingly sandy shores. Here is a photo: The guesthouse location could not have been more perfect. We were close enough to walk to the center of town but quiet enough that we could sleep with the window open. There are tons of incredible food options right nearby, and our amazing host Marco has a binder of recommendations in the common area. The impeccable conditions of the room barely scratch the surface of this accommodating stay. The guest host, Marco, was amazing. I truly cannot praise him enough. We had a fluctuating train schedule arriving and he simply asked for our train number and followed our schedule. Once we arrived, he greeted us and showed us to the guesthouse, showing us the stunning vernazza, common areas, and finally to our room which was complete with beach towels and a bottle of water. Marco helped my partner find the perfect sunset view, where he proposed! Marco’s kindness, generosity and incredibly accommodating gestures throughout our stay made this experience beyond perfect.

Nothing - absolute perfection.

Clean and accessible to all areas of cinque Terra

The close proximity to the free beach and the walk into the old town. Having a balcony to sit on and over look the ocean was also a big plus. Marco was a good source of information about what and where to go within the local area. This was our second time staying at this property and would highly recommend it to others.
