Sobre esta propriedade
15th century castle, between Cinque Terre and Portofino, private pool, sea view
The property offers a total of 10 sleeps in 5 double rooms (PLEASE NOTE the 5th room is only available for reservations for more than 8 guests, or on request for an extra). The property is not shared with other people, so we can say that it is at your sole use. All the bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning to allow a pleasant rest also in case of very hot weather, while the common areas do not have air conditioning available.
------------------------------------------------- PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE BOOKING: the property is an ancient building, dating back to the 13th century. The interior is very well kept and as you can see from the photos and you can read from several reviews (we have a 5 stars average!), it is clean and comfortable, the air conditioning is new and the kitchen is antique style, but modern. Nevertheless, all the furnitures are antiques, such as the beds, the sofa etc. If you are not that kind of person who likes such an historical and antique atmosphere, please do not book this property. We have great respect for everybody's personal taste, but we had guests who were disappointed because they were expecting modern space and atmosphere like the ones they could find in a 5 stars Hotel. We are not equipped with all the amenities you can expect from an Hotel, nor we pretend to be as an Hotel, we are an holiday house with some very original characteristics. Let me also say, more than original, I would say, unique. You can relax under the shadow of a centenary Watchtower which was built even before Christopher Columbus had discovered the Americas, but definitively you will not stay in a 5 stars Hotel. Our reviews have a 5 stars average rate but we are not a 5 stars hotel!!! To make a long story short, we are for many, but not for all! If this fits with your expectations, please continue reading the description of the property! We would love to have you staying with us! -------------------------------------------------
The site is quiet and romantic, with the infinity swimming pool equipped with water jets and a large green relax area with sun beds and from the terrace a remarkable panoramic views towards the peninsula of Portofino and Sestri Levante, then towards the Val d'Aveto and Val di Vara, and on a clear day, looking towards the South, you can see the profile of Corsica's mountains.

Beyond atmospheric!Rooms layered with interesting antiques and curios. Beautiful views and very relaxing. Long days by the pool. Very friendly welcome and host who was extremely helpful. We had no car but managed quite well with taxis and trains. Kitchen well appointed and pleasant to cook in. We alternated between restaurants and enjoying home cooked breakfasts on the terrace or dinners by the pool. My partner had to leave me alone with the children due to a family emergency. But I felt safe as the property is very secure. Its a 10 or 15 minute drive to the action but well worth it for the views! The bedrooms were cosy, felt like the kind of place you might disappear into a cupboard and end up in Narnia. There are also many very beautiful villages to explore nearby and lots to do with children including a park with pool, table football, playground equipment and moderate level tree walking and zipline.

An absolute dream stay!Our stay at this historic 1400s castle completely lived up to our high expectations. It was exciting to stay in such a unique building. The property is very spacious with lovely bedrooms, a fantastic view, and a beautiful pool and outdoor area. As a bonus, there were actually 5 toilets available (the listing mentioned 3 bathrooms), which was great for a large group! We also loved being close to Restaurant Pepen, a truly exciting dining experience.The owner, Alberto, and the host, Silvia, were super friendly and incredibly helpful throughout our stay, providing us with excellent tips for everything.To help make the experience even more flawless, we just want to mention a few minor details that would make the stay absolutely perfect (though they did not take away from our great experience):Outdoor lighting: We wished the outdoor area was a bit better lit, as it was a bit too dark to enjoy dinner outside after sunset.Pool area: With such a great outdoor pool, a poolside outdoor shower and some cushions for the outdoor chairs would have been a wonderful addition.Fridge space: For a house this large that accommodates so many people, a single combi-fridge was a bit too small. We struggled to fit all our groceries, so a second refrigerator would be a huge plus.Thank you, Alberto and Silvia, for an unforgettable week! We highly recommend this magical place.

This was one of the most magical places I have ever stayed. Every corner of the castle had something interesting: the kitchen was fantastic (we made pizza in the pizza oven), we had drinks in the taverna, lounged in the pool, and had dinners on the balcony overlooking the sea.

A wonderful and unique experience!
My wife and I came here on our honeymoon and we were blown away! It is truly a unique experience to stay in a medieval castle, but even more stunning was the location of the property - nestled in a quiet town in the Italian countryside. The hosts were great and very accommodating, and we had an incredible stay.

The Castle exceeded our high expectations! Staying in a real castle was like a dream come true. All the rooms were beautifully decorated in a style appropriate to the historic nature of the property. There were amazing views from all the windows, the multiple balconies, and the multiple lawn and pool areas. Two excellent restaurants were in walking distance, and a large grocery store was 10 minutes away. So much to see and do within an hour's drive or train ride. Highly recommend the Castle!!

Beautiful spot to stay and explore that part of Italy. Winding road to get there but worth it. Very comfortable furniture throughout and well maintained. We didn’t cook meals, but the kitchen was well stocked.
Just telling friends that you stayed in a castle built in the 1400’s is worth it.

the best weekend of our lives!
This was the best weekend of our lives! Mereta Castle is pure magic — the kind of emotions you simply won’t experience in any other place. We were deeply impressed by the warmth and care from the host and his manager. The house is incredibly beautiful, full of family history going back generations. The garden is so well-kept, and the view of the mountains and the sea is simply breathtaking. If we could give it 100 out of 10, we would, without a doubt! We wholeheartedly recommend this place — whether you’re coming as a family or as a couple. We’ll definitely be coming back here again and again!

House manager went above and beyond helping us figure things out. I would say this place is for people that are mobile. Lots of stairs that we did not mind. LOVED IT

Location and Area
The property was as advertised in its quality, room and features. The "tavern" is two levels and large leading out to the pool area. This is in my opinion the gathering area during our stay and it can host a larger number of people. The property value is enhanced by this entertainment area.
Not a walkable location if that is important which it is to me. Need to drive everywhere .Quiet at night but during the days neighbouring dogs and immediate church bells are very evident. Good location for a larger family gathering.

Thank you Garry for your review.
Yes we always recommend guests to have a car since the property is in the countryside, on the hills, and it is not convenient to walk to the nearest town of Chiavari. There are few restaurants at walking distance but you definitively need a car unless if you want to explore the area, unless you really decide to spend the most of your holidays at the property without moving.
The surroundings are quiet and typical of a countryside place, so you may hear some dogs barking time by time and this may be annoying for some. Luckily this is not happening frequently, but it may happen, like you correctly stated. Also, the property is near to the church and in the morning the bells ring, also at some other few times during the day! This is something which may be annoying for someone, while it is instead characteristic and picturesque for some others!
We are happy for these constructive reviews, because we have the opportunity to inform and warn the guests about the place in order not to have expectations being unmet.
So if you definitively hate church bells ringing, dogs barking sometimes, and you do not like to drive... you may think twice before booking the Mereta!
Seriously, we invite all the guests to double check with us in case you have doubts, the most important thing is to make all of you happy, so for any clarification please do not hesitate to ask before making your reservation!

Slept in a museum!
We just loved staying in Castello del Mereta! Our host Angelica was very accessible and answered all our questions promptly. There are 5 floors of stairs to navigate, so would not recommend for guests that have challenges with stairs. We made sure to sit in all the salons and soak up the history and 1920's decor. The special accordian concert in the garden was a treat. The views amazing. The nearby Pepen Restaurant has an antipasti experience that is not to be missed. Ask Angelica to make reservations. Thanks so much!

Magnifico!
Spectacular doesn't begin to describe our stay in the Mereta Castle in Leivi Italy! We had plenty of space for our extended family and the views were amazing! Our own private "restaurant" downstairs with plenty of flatware and utensils in the spacious kitchen. The veranda was truly a wonderful place to spend hours admiring the countryside. We felt like royalty entering the grounds with an electronic gate. Angelica was wonderful as she greeted us and brought fresh vegetables half way into our stay. They even erected a US flag on top of the watch tower, nice touch! Fantastic.

Magical Mereta
We had a truly wonderful week at the quirky and magical Mereta. Situated in a small and friendly village amongst olive groves, and with spectacular views down the valley to Chiavari and the sea, it is a great place to relax and unwind.
All the rooms are huge, have amazing antique furniture (we were still spotting interesting items
at the end of a week) and are very comfortable. The pool is an ideal place to cool down in the summer heat, and from which to watch the sun setting behind the mountains.
There is an excellent local restaurant, a very convivial outdoor bar and coffee shop and a small general store in the village. It is quick to drive to Chiavari or a very reliable bus service runs from outside the gate.
We really hope to return.

Amazing stay up in the hills of Chiavari
If you are looking for a getaway that is away from the city noise but still close enough where you can quickly go into town if you need something, this is the place for you. The castle is amazing and is exactly that. If you are looking for something modern, this is not for you. The pool and yard are amazing and I would say that is the most modern part, but the castle itself was built in the early 1500s and maintains that charm. Rooms are spacious and air-conditioned, and the kitchen is well stocked. If I had one recommendation, it would be to replace some of the mattresses, but I find that they are all the same across Italy/Europe. The family is commutative and if there are any issues or concerns they are a phone call or text away. The center of Chiavari is about 5km away, and you still have easy access to Portofino, Cinque Terre, or Genova by train or car. Keep in mind that you need to have a car to get there.

Unique property
We attended a wedding in Tuscany and had decided to extend our visit and continue to vacation with our immediate family members. We selected the historic castle which is in an area northwest of where the wedding was and closer to the coast. How often does one have the opportunity to stay in a 500+ year old castle? Well, if you have a chance, we would highly recommend it. The property is a drive up a winding road into the hills, but once you arrive, you are in heaven. The view is spectacular, the surroundings are peaceful (only interrupted by some charming church bells) and serene, especially at night for stargazing. The castle itself, is very comfortable and the infinity pool is amazing. Silvia, the property manager, was extremely helpful and always available. There are a lot of stairs which might pose a problem for some, but no one in our party complained. Plus, we were blessed with some beautiful weather. We made some beautiful memories at the Castle Mereta.
