Awesome view, they have everything for your needs to eat in the apartment including some olive oil, and spices. Plus plenty of dish towels to wash the dishes. It was nice to have a washer and a clothesline. The only but is be prepared to walk stairs up to the apartment but it is so worth it for the patio and view!!

We had an amazing stay here! The apartment in has a terrace that overlooks the Ligurian Sea and also the town of Riomaggiore— it was so beautiful that we just wanted to stay at the apartment and just take in the breathtaking beauty. The location makes it central to the town below, to the Riomaggiore Beach, and to the Via dell’Amore, a beautiful paved path along the ocean that connects Riomaggiore with the next village north, Manarola. The kitchen is well equipped, the shower has good water pressure and plenty of hot water, and the laundry machine and dishwasher are excellent. The natural sunlight (windows) in the apartment is another really nice aspect, and there’s even a little balcony off of one of the bedrooms. Highly recommend the host Carolina - she gave detailed instructions and was available via WhatsApp when we had any questions. The stay here was the highlight of our trip to Italy.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay and highly recommend this place! The location was truly fabulous — right in the heart of the town, making it so easy to walk to everything, yet perched high enough that it was peaceful and quiet at night, away from the noise of the main square. It was the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility.The apartment itself was amazing — exceptionally clean, beautifully maintained, and the beds were incredibly comfortable, which made relaxing after long days of exploring and hiking such a treat. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, which made our stay even more enjoyable.The true highlight, however, was the balcony. The views were absolutely spectacular, and the comfortable lounge chairs made it the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy a morning coffee, or take in the breathtaking scenery in the evening.The owners were also fantastic. Communication was excellent before our trip, throughout our stay, and even afterwards to ensure we had everything we needed for checkout. Their care and attention made the entire experience seamless and stress-free.Riomaggiore is a beautiful town with wonderful restaurants and a stunning waterfront. We absolutely loved Cinque Terre. We hiked all five of the Blue Trail sections between the towns, and my husband and daughter also tackled the upper trails, which they absolutely loved for the more challenging hiking and the fact that there were very few tourists.We would highly recommend this place
