Charming typical stone house with stunning sea views and privacy

We had the most wonderful stay at Monica's charming mountain farmhouse near Chiavari. The house itself is beautiful - full of rustic character yet very comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The views of the mountains and surrounding countryside are breathtaking, and it was the perfect place to unwind after exploring the Ligurian coast.Monica is truly an exceptional host. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, offering thoughtful touches and local recommendations that made our trip extra special. If you're looking for an authentic, peaceful escape on the Ligurian coast, this is the perfect place. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to others seeking an authentic experience and are physically able to navigate the lengthy staircase leading to the house.

Almost Paradise

It was a fantastic stay in Paradiso San Giacomo. The magnificent view was the first in the morning which we enjoyed with an espresso and the last in the evening with a glass of wine. Monica and her family were phantastic hosts, always friendly and helpful. A great time which we hope to repeat soon. Andreas

Great and quiet Location/House with stunning views from 300 meter over the sea level. However, you need to be a bit fit to make the 120 steps from the street to the house. escpecially with the luggage in the beginning.

Beautiful house with a great view!

We (a family of four) had a wonderful week in this beautiful house. The view over Chiavari and the Ligurian coast and hills is breathtaking. In Chiavari you can find some very good restaurants and shopping possibilities. The house lies quiet in the hills but not far away from the autostrada so that you can also do some trips to Genova, Cinque Terre, Rapallo, Santa Margherita Ligure or Portofino. All in all a perfect place to relax. Thank you Monica for a beautiful holiday!

A lovely house, great garden and an absolutely stunning view. The house was bigger than we thought, fully equiped and nicely decorated. Communication with hostess was perfect. Upon our arrival she sent us an e-mail with detailed information of Liguria. And also during our stay, Communication was great and super friendly. She even warned us for upcoming bad weather.

Our stay at this charming stone villa was simply unforgettable. The location is absolutely stunning – perched above the Ligurian coast with a view that takes your breath away. The sunsets in particular were magical, every evening painting the sky in colors we will carry in our memories forever.The villa itself is spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished and thoughtfully equipped with everything you could possibly need. From the cozy living room to the inviting bedrooms and the lovely outdoor spaces, it is clear that a lot of care and love has gone into every detail of this house. It truly feels like a home away from home.What made our experience truly outstanding, however, was Monica. From the very first contact, she was warm, kind and incredibly attentive. She provided us with detailed recommendations for local events, restaurants and excursions – even pointing us towards special cultural experiences like the Madonna Bianca celebration. Throughout our stay, she was always available, answering quickly and making sure everything was perfect for us. Her personal guide was a wonderful touch and really helped us make the most of our time in this beautiful corner of Liguria.We want to sincerely thank Monica for being such an exceptional host. Her hospitality and dedication made all the difference – she didn’t just offer us a house, but a truly memorable experience. We left feeling relaxed and grateful!Thank you very much!

Was uns hier nicht gefallen hat:- die Auffahrt auf den Berg ist eine schmale, steile, mehrere Kilometer lange Serpentinen-Straße. Dennoch rege befahren, auch von Müllabfuhr und Baufahrzeugen! Wir haben Blut und Wasser geschwitzt- Man parkt auf eben dieser Straße, kein regulärer Parkplatz. Außer Sichtweite des Hauses, keine Wendemöglichkeit in der Nähe- Das Haus ist extrem hellhörig. Privatsphäre gibt es nichtDer Clou kam zum Schluss: Wir waren kaum zwei Stunden abgereist, da erhielten wir von der Vermieterin ein Foto von einem Sessel. Dieser hatte im Wohnraum gestanden und war mit einem weißen Laken abgedeckt gewesen, genau wie ein zweiter Sessel und die Couch. Auf dem Foto konnte man sehen, dass die Sitzfläche des Sessels unten herausgebrochen war. Wir haben umgehend erklärt, dass wir den Sessel nicht beschädigt haben. Wir haben ihn aber von Anfang an als unbequem wahrgenommen. Sie fragte, warum wir das nicht gemeldet hätten. Wir fragten, was wir hätten melden sollen: einen alten Sessel, der uns zu unbequem war? Aufgrund des Lakens war für uns kein Schaden ersichtlich gewesen. Sie schickte die handgeschriebene Kaufrechnung, ausgestellt auf den Namen „Monica“ und schrieb, sie müsse jetzt die Kaution von 300 EUR einziehen, um den Sessel reparieren zu lassen. Eine Differenz würde sie zurückerstatten. Wenn wir den Schaden gemeldet hätten, hätte sie die Vormieter haftbar machen können. Wir haben nie wieder etwas von ihr gehört, geschweige denn eine Rückerstattung erhalten…

Tacheles!! Nach 13 Tagen immer noch keine Kaution von 300 zurück, obwohl schon bestätigt wurde das wir natürlich nichts kaputt gemacht haben und auch keinen Müll in das Nebengrundstück geschmissen haben. Deshalb nun doch diese Bewertung. Das Schild ist schon vom Nachbarn eine Frechheit. Ich bleibe trotzdem sachlich. Zuallererst. Ich bin zertifizierter Trust Pilot Agent. Wie haben wir den Aufenthalt empfunden? Frau (42) Tochter (16) Ich (52) Ankunft. Nur was für geübte Bergsteiger. 125 Treppenstufen nach langer Anreise (bei Nässe gefährlich). Koffer hoch, die Hölle (Herzinfarkt Gefahr). Parkplatz nein, absolute Zumutung, wie ausgewiesen. Extrem gefährlich und nicht zulässig in der Kurve. Bei Regen wird es offiziell auch als extrem gefährlich ausgewiesen. Bei Fahrweise der Italiener erst recht. Maximale Privatsphäre NEIN! Am ersten Tag gleich stand ich Splitter Faser nackt vor einem fremden Mann. Kein Problem für mich, aber... Ums Haus Kameras, wo wir beobachtet wurden. Ankunft und Unwetter beweisen es. Treppe und obere Etage komplett quietschendes Holz, ich meine Extrem. Von Nachtruhe und Erholung kann da nicht die Rede sein. Muss jemand zum stillen Örtchen, dann ist der Weg laut und unangenehm. Die Matratze hart und nur ein Laken für zwei zum zudecken. Toaster wurde ausgewiesen, leider nicht gefunden. Ofen ging dafür. Klimaanlage top von Vaillant, sowie Warmwasser.

Schöne Unterkunft in guter Lage

Wir hatten leider sehr großes Pech mit dem Wetter wodurch wir den Garten mit Liegestühlen und Blick auf das Meer und die Stadt Chiavari eigentlich nicht nutzen konnten. Das war sehr schade. Dadurch haben wir uns um so mehr in dem sehr gut ausgestatteten gemütlichen Haus aufgehalten. Eine tolle Vermieterin die uns mit allen notwendigen Informationen versorgt hat, mir sogar zum Geburtstag gratuliert hat und Tipps für Ausflüge in die wunderbare Umgebung gegeben hat. Nicht zu vergessen die guten Betten. Der Nachbar scheint schlechte Erfahrungen mit Gästen gemacht zu haben und hat sein Grundstück mit nicht zu übersehenden Schildern bestückt, was ein bisschen schade ist. Ansonsten alles top.

Wunderschönes Anwesen!

Wie schon vorherige Urlauber berichten, sind die 125 Stufen eine Herausforderung! (Machen aber stramme Waden und einen Knackpo). Das man nicht nur die Koffer, sondern auch jeden Einkauf nach oben tragen muss sollte jedem bewusst sein! Das Haus und das Anwesen selber entspricht exakt der Beschreibung und den Bildern! Monica ist eine sehr zuvorkommende Gastgeberin, zurückhaltend aber immer mit guten Tips steht sie zur Seite! Ein kleines Manko ist die hellhörrigkeit des Hauses! Als Eltern mit 2 Kindern (in diesem Fall schon älter) fehlt etwas Privatsphäre. Wir waren mit Hund dort und auch unser Vierbeiner war super entspannt! Komplett eingezäunt konnte er alles in Ruhe erkunden ohne das wir ständig aufpassen mussten! Danke an Monica für die Gastfreundschaft!

Super locatie

Wij hebben een week doorgebracht in het mooie huis op een geweldige locatie. De trap van 127 treden moet niet worden onderschat, maar het huis en het uitzicht zijn geweldig. We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad. Wij vonden de koelkast wel wat klein voor een gezin, ook omdat je niet elke keer met de boodschappen de trap op wilt. Ook zou de douchgel een kleine update kunnen gebruiken. De airco is slecht in 1 slaapkamer aanwezig. Maar verder was het top! De communicatie met Monica was ook erg fijn!
