Lovely place
This property has a wonderful view of the Ligurian Sea. There are good restaurants and gelato just steps from your front door. We really enjoyed our stay here. One word of caution - this property is on the second floor with no elevator and the steps are steep. If you have mobility concerns, you might want to try somewhere else.

Wonderful Apartment
Riccardo truly is the best host. He met us at the train station and helped with our luggage. He gave us all the information on the area to visit and how to get around. The apartment was very clean and spacious. Pack light, you have a washing machine to use for your stay. Riccardo called a taxi for us when we left which made our journey very easy. Many places to eat in Nervi but make a reservation. Ten out of Ten. Thanks Riccardo

Best host you'll ever meet, dreamy Seaside location
Riccardo is the most kind, soft-spoken and wonderful property host we have ever met. Full, open sea view in Nervi from the living room looks out at the beach, boat launch and local restaurants. Property has full kitchen, large rooms, fast-working air conditioner or fan. After booking, we immediately received maps, transportation information, recommendations. Slow, 10-minute walk along the Ligurian Sea from Nervi train station. Dinner at Halloween or Bagni Medusa. Boat trip to Camogli and Portofino. Long train ride to Cinque Terre or a short trip to Genoa. Supermarket and Pharmacie nearby. Go to the bakery up the hill for fresh, original foccacia or other treats. Enjoy your stay at the Fisherman's House!

Wonderful
The apartment is spacious and comfortable, luxurious even, and tasteful. Airco in every room, plenty of daylight, great kitchen and bathroom. All appliances in good order and easy to use. The view is 24/7 entertainment, with the lovely & lively harbour right at your feet. Plenty of choice from nice restaurants. Frequented mostly by locals and Italian visitors, Nervi is not as posh or touristic as Portofino etc. so that's a plus. And the acces to train, boat and beach is brilliant. So we could very much live with the few minor downsides: no parking spot near the house; noise from trains (back) and terraces (front) when windows are open; the canal down the street can be smelly; steep stairs (but compared to Amsterdam houses the stairs are perfectly fine..). Riccardo is the most gracious host who speaks English perfectly and goes out of his way to help with luggage and with tips and advice. In short: highly recommended!

Perfect
It is exactly what I expected. Riccardo is an excellent host, give all necessary informations and help for what you need, as check in and check out, with the luggages. He left some kind amenities. The place is very good, excellent to live a typical Italian life in a porticciolo, but with travel facilities to travel around if you want to do regional tourism. The apartment is very nice , with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a nice and complete kitchen and room with sea view, and washing machine. The entrance has a sharp stair, he warned about that, just if you have a big problem of mobility talk to him before. Excellent holiday!!

Without Doubt, The Best Place to Stay for a Visit to Genoa
Basing ourselves in Nervi for our visit to the Genoa Area was great. The accommodation is fantastic, we hardly wanted to explore beyond Nervi. There are views of the harbour from the accommodation, as well as great food at restaurants nearby. Riccardo was so helpful, making our stay even better. We wish we had stayed longer, it was so good there!

Nervi - A Great Base to see the Ligurian Coast.
Riccardo emailed maps, notes and recommendations before our holiday so when we arrived we knew the area quite well. Nervi is a great base to see all the Ligurian coast has to offer. Great train links and short travel times make exploring easy. It was quiet in September and was still warm and dry. The apartment was spacious with a lovely lived in feel with super views of the small harbour and local restaurants. Riccardo was very attentive and a great host, full of ideas and suggestions and took the time to go through in detail the various maps and public transport information he had provided in the apartment. Highly recommend this property.
