We loved staying at Amare Il Mare, and experiencing Corniglia and Cinque Terra. The owner and manager, Cinzia, greeted us at our car when we arrived, and she and her colleague helped us carry our bags to the apartment. So kind and gracious. Cinzia prepared a useful and comprehensive book of information that she leaves in the room (including information about the room, the town, activities places to eat, transportation, laundry, and more), and shares that "I put my heart and soul into realizing this project" and we can verify that that is a true statement. Cinzia took such good care of us, with all of the food, snacks, drinks, and Netflix to make our stay enjoyable. The apartment was incredibly clean, and Cinzia cleaned and restocked our apartment so nicely every day. The room (we stayed in the "Stone Room") was very well designed, and she uses every square inch to make our stay pleasant and enjoyable. The best was very cozy and comfortable. We enjoyed returning to our beautiful apartment and view every day. Corniglia is much quieter and less congested than the other towns. Corniglia is perfectly situated in Cinque Terra, equidistant from the other 4 Cinque Terra towns. You can even walk to neighboring towns in a few hours, along the coast. At Cinzia's recommendation, we purchased the daily Cinque Terra Card (for 2 days in our case), which allowed us to travel all day between towns, which only takes about 5 minutes by train. Visiting the other towns in Cinque Terra was amazing, with each town having its own geography and personality. We also spent much time in our beautiful room, enjoying the view of the hills and sea. We are from Hawaii, and understand natural beauty, and our stay at Amare Il Mare is at the top of our list. We definitely hope to be back as soon as we can. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at [email protected]. We hope you book this property. You will have the time of your lives.

We loved EVERYTHING about the experience, from the apartment, to the service, to the location, to the transportation, to the food, to the activities. Nothing at all to dislike.

The best view from all of Corniglia from the private, massive veranda!! Cinzia thought of everything, from the welcome wine and scones, to the snacks & coffee in the fantastic kitchen, to laundry service, restaurant recommendations, ticket links, etc etc. She was an incredible host!

Nothing. Everything was absolutely perfect!

Everything! Amare il Mare is absolutely perfect in every single way imaginable. We only booked one night, which was a shame; we really should have booked for longer! The view, the room, the amenities, the hosts... everything exceeded our expectations. What a beauty of a spot!

It was perfect. Nothing we didn't like!

La très grande attention de la propriétaire Très bien équipé. Très propre Bien situé.

Lit plus ou moins confortable Très petit

Exceptional decor, amenities and thoughtful touches in room. Excellent communication with hostess.

Nothing

Great location with wonderful views!

Superb experience! Our hosts treated us like family! They thought of every detail and more to make this a very special memory! We are in the vacation rental business and were very inspired!!! We would highly recommend!!!!

Steps would make this difficult for some.

We stayed in the Starfish Room, there was plenty of space, a nice kitchenette, renovated bathroom, and the porch overlooking the ocean is outstanding! The thing that really sets Amare apart is the owners hospitality. Whether it be the offer to pick us up from train station with luggage (lots of stairs in Corniglia - pack light), the basket of food goodies, or the little personal amenity bags - it made it an extra special experience.

Everything about the property and the owners is lovely. I would just note that there is lots of stairs in Corniglia, so packing light.
