Portoverene

Perfect location in a seaside town that is not over run with tourists. This property is across the street from the beach and ~1 km/2/3 mi from the ferry. AC works well.

Beautiful view from the serene and relaxing terrace

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Villa Fiorita. Sondra was a gracious host in showing us around the property and making some grocer and restaurant recommendations. It had all the amenities we needed. We spent most of our time at the villa enjoying and relaxing on the beautiful terrace. As other reviewers noted, the villa's location is perfect for accessing the beach and swimming as well as restaurants and the port for a boat trip to the Cinque Terre. Our only regret was that we hadn't booked the villa for longer than our 3 night stay. This ranks as one of our favorite of the many, many vacation rentals we have stayed in over the years and would definitely book again if we return to Italy.

Seaside

Such a beautiful side-by-side location. Our experience from start to finish was easy and wonderful. Sandro and his wife meet us at the house. Very helpful. Fabulous location, a more secluded locals neighborhood away from the more tourist area. All of Portoverne was stunning. Easy to use ferry to other villages. It's on older area ( Italy) so don't expect a luxury house. But we totally loved it. Thank you Sandro.

Perfect location

This was the perfect spot for our family of four to stay in Portovenere. It’s just a short walk down to the public beach, or into town, but it feels still feels like a peaceful retreat. We loved sitting on the patio watching the boats below us. Portovenere is a great place to stay if you are considering visiting Cinque Terre; a boat departs from Portovenere and a daily pass will enable you to stop at all of the towns except Corniglia (which is on a hill without a dock). It’s also a lovely place to spend a few days swimming, walking up to Castle Doria and San Pietro, and enjoying the restaurants. The house is not big, but has everything you need to be comfortable, and Sandro and Patrizia were very responsive and helpful. (If I had one request to make, I only wished for an espresso machine in the kitchen.). We greatly enjoyed our stay.

Amazing place!

This was the most wonderful apartment in Portovenere. The patios overlooking the water were amazing. There was a large one just outside the main living area. Then another large one up the stairs (There is also another shower room off this patio), and the property just keeps going up with more little shaded grassy areas - all to ourselves. Sandro was very kind and helpful and willing to do anything to help us during our stay. He left pastries for us for our breakfast but they were so good, they never made it to breakfast. Sandro's brother lives below but we rarely saw him. He was also very warm and friendly. The apartment is only a few minutes walk to town along the shore but it is away from the main tourist area so it is quiet and relaxing. After a long day of hiking and sightseeing in Cinque Terre, it was nice to get away from the crowds and relax on our patios. This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed in!

Great location and amazing views

My family of four (includes two middle school aged children) had an incredible time in Portovenere. The flat is within walking distance of all of the shops and restaurants but far enough away that you can appreciate the quiet and breathtaking views. The beach is literally across the street which was really convenient. We spent most of our day away from the apartment, but it had all the amenities you would need. The second shower is actually not in the flat but up on the second veranda (yes, there are two balconies) but we actually liked using it as it still felt private and was more spacious. The hosts were responsive to any questions and made check-in and out very easy. The flat is on the smaller side but if the weather is right, you will want to spend most of your time on the veranda taking in the amazing views or out and about enjoying the city. There are also a lot of steps to get up to the flat so depending on age of kids or and any issues with stairs, just know there are quite a few steps to manage. Great experience overall.

Prime Portovenere overlooking the Ligurian Sea

We were 2 moms and 3 sons- and had the most delightful stay here. Sandro was quick to respond to all, met us personally at the property . The condo is well appointed with 1 bedroom facing the sea and another with 2 bathrooms & small kitchen , but the best is the terrace!!! we spent hours looking at the boats, ships, yachts, coming and going. This is a GREAT option to stay and experience Cingue Terre without all the people. We will go back and stay longer next time. Thank you Sandro! Ciao a& arrivederci!

Traumhafter Ausblick

Die Lage direkt am Strand, auf einem Hügel mit atemberaubendem Ausblick ist einfach konkurrenzlos! Die Wohnung hat einen traumhaften Ausblick von der Terrasse, dem Wohnzimmer und einem der beiden Schlafzimmer. Eine Etage höher ist noch eine sehr große Terrasse mit einem noch besseren Ausblick, großem Tisch, kleinem Tisch, drei Liegen, die wir auch am Abend genutzt haben. Der mediterrane Zugang über die Treppe und die Terrassen erfreuen mit schöner und sehr gepflegter Bepflanzung. Die Wohnung selbst ist nicht allzu groß für 5 Personen, die Küche ist klein, aber man findet dort alles, was man braucht, genug Teller, Gläser usw. Das Haus ist schon etwas älter aber gemütlich eingerichtet, sauber und wir können es wärmstens empfehlen. Ein paar Meter vom Haus entfernt gibt es Restaurants, Foccaceria, kleiner Lebensmittelladen. Wir haben in der Wohnung und in Portovenere eine wunderschöne und erholsame Zeit verbracht.

Amazing in all aspects

What a beautiful property and the location couldn’t be better...a short walk to town, incredible views, everything you could possibly need within 5 minutes (including delicious aperol spritz’s around the corner). Sandro and his wife could not have been more welcoming and lovely. We are a family of 5 with 3 grown children - and there was plenty of room. It was hard to leave!! Grazie Mille, Sandro!!

Wonderful non touristy spot very walkable

This location was perfect for our 4 night visit. We were able to walk into the village and shop, as well as take a boat to see all of Cinque Terra. There are 3 restaurants nearby recommended by the host and we tried one in the village for a fabulous dinner and the one closest by for dessert one night which was amazing. Our washing machine was broken and Sandro had a repair man sent the very next day - and let us use his brothers place downstairs for Laundry in the meantime. His English isn’t perfect but he communicated very very well, and was very responsive over text and email. We used the lovey space upstairs to play cards, lay in the sun and have dinner. Hands down amazing experience
