Vernazza is a wonderful place and the apartment is in a great location. However, there were several issues with the apartment that I raised immediately to the host and VRBO (with no resolution). The staircase is steep and the handrail was separated from the wall providing no support and introducing a safety concern. There was no WiFi and the apartment says 4 bedrooms, but there are really 2 bedrooms and 2 couches in central living space. There are NOT 4 bedrooms. In looking at other reviews this seems to be a continued theme. This apartment has the potential to be a great place w a little care and hosts that communicate better and have greater concern for guest safety. This would be a comfortable stay for a group of 4, for 7 it was very challenging. I also felt like VRBO would work harder to protect guests and was disappointed that they took now care to resolve the issue.

Nice apartment and easy to access. It worked for a short stay. The balcony was nice with a lovely view. This is a two-bedroom apartment with sofa beds in the kitchen and the living room. It is not a four-bedroom apartment as noted in the listing. Very steep stairs once you get into the property. Overall, it was very nice and clean and beds were comfortable.

Beautiful Cinque Terre

We had an absolutely awesome time in Cinque Terre. The apartment was awesome even though there are 130 steps to reach it lol. We considered that our exercise to help balance all the great food we had in the seaside restaurant near by. The location is right next to the train station so it’s easy to travel by train from village to village. You have shops and bakeries and restaurants right at the foot of the steps. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone visiting the area! Absolutely breathtaking views. Highlight of our trip!

Cinque Terre

Vernazza is an amazing little gem! We had a magical stay here in this quaint seaside town.Our restaurant experiences were top notch - Belforte, which was right in town as well as Orto - a Michelin star restaurant a short train ride away - just AMAZING! The views from the apartment were incredible…but strong note to others…to get the views you have to do many stairs! Totally worth it, but if you’re traveling with little ones or older ones, you might want to keep that in mind. So glad we came and stayed here…memories to last a lifetime!

Apartment was a great location and nice. Host was a poor communicator. Up until the night before when I called, there was ZERO response despite multiple messages and Whats Up Messages. The listing specifically says Dryer. There is no dryer. This was one of the main reasons we chose this accomodation. Very disappointing and when asked, Host ignored and acted like it was no big deal.

The rental was very clean, comfortable, and in a great location for exploring the area. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but there are a few things future guests should be aware of.The interior stairs are extremely steep, and the handrails on both levels were loose and pulling away from the wall, which felt like a safety concern. In addition, the bathroom is located upstairs, so anyone needing to use it during the night should keep that in mind.The house manual was supposed to be accessible through a QR code displayed on the table, but the QR code did not work, so we were unable to review any house instructions. I notified the host but never received a response. I also reached out before checkout to ask about departure procedures and did not hear back, so we simply left the property clean and tidy.One surprise was returning from a hike to find the beds made and evidence that housekeeping had entered the home. While the service itself was appreciated, we had not been informed that mid-week housekeeping was scheduled, which was unsettling.A few additional coffee pods would have been appreciated for a multi-day stay.With some attention to communication, maintenance of the stair railings, and clearer guest information, this could be an excellent rental experience.

Great quiet location in a fun city

Vernazza is a great city and swimming off the rocks and off the breakwater were a favorite afternoon activity. The apartment offered a quiet spot to escape to when Vernazza got busy. We sat up on the deck morning, afternoon, and night. So nice to have that private outdoor space. We also found it very handy to have the washing machine and clothes line for laundry and daily drying of beach towels (bring your own) and swimsuits. Note: this is an upper level apartment unit. There is one flight of stairs up to the bedrooms, and another flight up to the kitchen, deck and bathroom. My son was happy that the sleeper sofa was very comfortable.

Great location in Vernazza

This property is easy access to everything in Vernazza! Steps are everywhere and unavoidable so you should not visit if you aren’t capable of steps. This unit also has steep steps leading up to main living/bedrooms and another set up to kitchen and bath so use caution they can be slick and we had a couple falls but no injuries so just use extreme caution. The bedrooms were great with 2 comfortable beds. The 2 sofa sleepers worked for our college students but were very broken down and not comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked and very nice updated bathroom. The AC was wonderful to come back to since July was very hot! Also very close to the train station which was most convenient.

Beautiful place to stay in Vernazza

Overall the stay was great for me and my three other friends. The only thing that wasn’t great was the bad communication with the host. They sent me a message with a link to upload passport information in order to get the check in details (like the code to the key box) but the link didn’t work. Then, once the link started working, the host told me to use a confirmation number from an email that I never received. So I was not able to log in to the site to upload our passports. I was trying to get a hold of the host the night before we arrived in Vernazza and messaged them many times and called. I still didn’t get any response the morning of, and I even arrived at the train station in Vernazza and just had to stand outside and wait for a response because I didn’t know how to get there or have any key information. I had to contact Vrbo customer service many times too to explain the situation. I was by myself (my friends were arriving later yay day) and had no where to go and was very anxious about the situation. Finally, after waiting outside for 45 minutes, the host sent me check in instructions and a link to the website to upload our passports that actually worked. It was a very stressful situation. So I don’t know if I would recommend this place just because of that.

Nie wieder

Obwohl es eine schöne Wohnung war, fühlen wir uns total abgezockt! Wir bekamen die Informationen der Gastgeberin erst spät abends vor Abreise und mussten noch 100 Euro obendrauf bezahlen, sonst würde uns der Türcode nicht bekanntgegeben. Das war der einzige Kontakt mit der Vermieterin. Diese "Reinigungsgebühr" sahen wir nie wieder! Ausgeschrieben war die Wohnung so, dass alles im Preis inklusive sei. Nie wieder!!

Air Conditioned Apartment

Wonderful apartment with air conditioning that worked great during a heat wave. View of the water off of the deck. Super clean. Sofa pull out bed was comfortable. Lots of stairs inside and outside of the apartment (like all of Vernazza). Shower was a bit small and tough to figure out. We enjoyed our stay here!

We loved this apartment. It was right downtown in the middle of Vernazza, easy access to the train and also easy walking to all of the restaurants and bars in town. We also loved the 2 bedroom space large living room and also a small living room on the top level balcony. We look forward to staying here again in the future!

Great location in Vernazza

This is a great property in Vernazza, especially because of its amenities. It has a full stocked kitchen, clothes washer (air-line dry) and everything you could need for sleeping and bathing. Check in was easy, although it was a little tricky to find the apartment at first. We ended up looking much farther than it was. It’s right near the hiking trail to Montorosso which is so convenient. Vernazza is such a quaint little town that is hopping during the day and (usually) quiets right down at night. Some great restaurants too. We LOVED the balcony with a view and the sea breeze that came in at night to cool the apartment. If I had to say one constructive thing it’s that the bed wasn’t the most comfortable I’ve slept on, but it wouldn’t keep me from coming back to this great apartment. Thank you!

Wonderful stay, great location in Vernazza!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the location was fantastic. Luciana was a wonderful host and provided arrival information well in advance. The home was very clean, well equipped, and comfortable. The weather was a bit chilly so we didn't spend as much time as I had hoped on the top terrace, great views! As other reviewers mentioned and I expected, the shower was a bit cumbersome and a bit dangerous for older folks. Otherwise it was a very comfortable stay.

Great apartment in Vernazza

The apartment is great! Great view and right in town! As per the "about section" it is NOT great for someone with arthritis or issues with stairs but they are very clear about that. It's a little inconvenient that the bathroom and kitchen are on the second floor but not a big deal. Communication could have been better from the host - please note, she communicates much better if you have WhatsAp so I would definitely recommend signing up for that before traveling (it's free app).

Amazing apartment in the heart of Vernazza

My sister, her husband, my husband and I shared this apartment during a 3–night stay in Vernazza. We had never been to Cinque Terre and were pleasantly surprised by the convenient location of the apartment and how quiet it was at night despite throngs of tourists during the day! It’s a short walk from the train and not too many stairs, especially compared to the Siena apartment we shared earlier in the trip that had 97 steps! The beds were very comfortable, the apartment was very clean and very well appointed with items to make our stay more comfortable. Several great restaurants and shops were very close by, as was the piazza on the harbor. The apartment leads directly to many of the Cinque Terre trails. Vernazza makes a great base for sight seeing or hiking as it’s centrally located and easy to get to the train - more so than some of the other villages. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!
