Hot water was an issue. Read the guide very thoroughly…finally got hot water after turning the instant hot water tank to the highest setting. Wanted to walk on “lovers lane” but needed the welcome pass with barcode that was provided only when we asked for it. The view was very very nice. Beds are a bit hard but comfortable. Entrance gate did not lock but had to go through two locked doors so it felt secure. Small refrigerator and freezer but andequate and very limited ice. You stay here for location and view. ##### Scott D.

This is a clean and tidy flat, nicely appointed for a couple or a small family. It's located above the central part of town (which mean the views are spectacular), but it's still a relatively easy climb up from the main square. A small balcony overlooks the town and provides a nice view of the glittering Meditteranean. Very relaxing place to stay. ##### Lisa F.

It is a very nice town not too busy not too quiet. Always somewhere to eat and somewhere to drink but not overcrowded. The apartment itself is quite stunning and you will not tire of the view, easy easy access to all of the other terre - everything you could wish for and Cristina is most helpful. The private beach to the north of the station is your special place. Grazie mille Craig & familia ##### Craig K.

Our family of four stayed in this delightful property this summer -- our third recent visit to Cinque Terre. The second bedroom was ideal for our two teen daughters, the master a lovely retreat. The comforts of home (i.e. washing machine, dishwasher, and well-equipped kitchen) were much appreciated. The property was very clean, the balcony overlooking Riomaggiore and the sea, a lovely spot for meals. We can't wait to return! Thank you Christina and Luca for assisting us with our reservation needs and being so prompt to respond to any questions. Five-stars! ##### Catherine C. ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 16 Dec 2019 Liked: Location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Unfortunate choice Anyone traveling to Riomaggiore should be aware that carrying anything but a small roll on is a trauma. The height and stairs make it impossible to travel with more than that. Upon arriving at the apartment there was a deluge of water and cleaning supplies at the front door. Once inside the apartment we found ants in the kitchen as well as hair in the shower. If nothing else you expect the apartment to be cleaned and inspected. We were charged $25.00 a night to park our car in the garage but the remote to allow access in and out was not working. If you are charging for a service it’s imperative to confirm all items are in working order and clean. Unfortunately we will not be back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2019 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Angela R., Tucson, Arizona USA 6 Jul 2016 #### Our favorite stay in Europe We love this apartment! Our family of five, including two teen girls, 17 & 15, and a boy, 12, are backpacking Europe for a month. Riomaggiore is stop ten enroute so we have a few apartment experiences for comparison. This one is brand new with lovely decor and appliances and the best view! Our return trip after twenty years away revealed a busier, more touristic village, but high up above the main road, you will be isolated from the noise...except when Italy plays Spain in the Euro Cup and the whole village roars! We're soccer fans and found this collective cheering charming and fun. Mostly though, this apartment is a quiet, lovely, light filled space. The San Giovanni piazza to the left of your balcony is a gathering spot in the evening for kids playing soccer and neighbors chatting. To the right is a restful sea view and everywhere are delightful tiny lanes to explore. We dropped into this wonderful life for four beautiful days. We shopped locally for homemade pasta and sauce for at home meals and cheese, prosciutto & olive anti-pasta plates. We also walked down into town for some excellent sea food. "Rio" is a great home base for seeing the other villages as well. We hiked through Corniglia and Vernazza, swam in Manarola's deep harbor pools, and had a beach day in Monterroso, taking the big boat back "home." The apartment is spacious enough for our family and we were very comfortable with the layout. So who would not enjoy this apartment? It would not be the best choice if you have limited mobility. There are many steep stairs up from the village and inside the apartment building itself. Also, it is a breezy space with two floor to ceiling windows and fresh sea air, but no a/c. We found it comfortable, but others might not. Overall, we found a rental that is new, immaculate, and well equipped (we learned how to use an Italian coffee maker!) We used the clothes washer and just about every thing else provided. Cristina is very efficient with communication and we had no trouble locating the apartment and letting ourselves in. This one is a winner! We hope others enjoy this space as much as we did. We will be back! ##### Angela R. ### 8/10 Good #### Marie Eve 26 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Super appartement très bien équipé, mais la clim était tellement bruyante qu’on devait carrément la débrancher la nuit. Nous avons adoré prendre un verre sur le balcon en regardant les montagnes et la mer. ##### Marie Eve Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emmy C. 17 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect spot and perfect amenities! We had an amazing stay in Riomaggiore! The location was perfect for us (easy access to the action but also easy to remove yourself from it!) Including an amazing view from the balcony where we had wine every night and watched the moon rise. Having a parking spot was even more important than we knew going into this trip so we were thankful to have it (and also a washing machine). There is no AC but the blinds and fans did a great job keeping the place cool enough for us at night. We did have a slight issue with the water heater but there were clear instructions on how to rectify the situation and it worked! We couldn’t have asked for a nicer stay. Thank you! ##### Emmy C.

But the response of the owner acted fast to fulfill our request for extra blankets. ##### Ng M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen M. 15 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Even during the off season a perfect place to stay My husband and I spent 2 nights in Cristina's apartment and everything was perfect.
