Beautiful villa overlooking the sea was a perfect vacation destination. The kitchen was fully equipped and met all our needs. Lorella, our hostess and owner, was so helpful providing local information from train schedules, boat schedules and city information. The house was very clean and provided all our necessities to include beach towels. The extra touches as cold water upon our arrival, cart for shopping and list of best restaurants and gelato! The kumquat and lemon trees were a pleasant treat. Daily, while drinking our morning coffee, planning our adventures, we sat on the terrace overlooking the harbor. Total tranquility with a morning breeze, and a view of Corniglia and Monterosso. We stayed 2 weeks, and could have stayed a month easily, so much to see and do in Cinque Terre. We visited all 5 terres, hiked the trails, visited wineyards with delicious wine tasting, swimming in the blue clear harbor and enjoyed meeting the friendly locals in our daily activities. At the end of our day, we would enjoy sipping wine on the 3rd floor terrace, surrounded with blooming flowers and watching the gorgeous sunset followed by the village lights or the fishing boats heading out for anchovy fishing. Manarola has great restaurants offering pizza, pasta, local daily caught fish and wonderful local wines and beer, with tasty desserts and limoncello. Cinque Terre offers something for everyone, be it singles, family, couples, young and old. We highly recommend this beautiful, perfectly located villa and are already planning our return. Thank you, Lorella for an absolute dream vacation. We look forward to returning and staying in your spectacular villa.
