Francesca and CarloStay September 1st to 9th, 2025.I like to thank you both for opening your lovely home to use high above La Spezia. We have enjoyed our time here and created new and long lasting memories of the area. Starting from a beautiful scenic drive along the top of Cinque Terre to the small villages of Vernazza, Manarola and Monterosso. Vernazza was and experiences from the drive down the mountain into the village a the lovely landscapes and a cone of seafood to the sting views of the town. In Manarola we enjoyed a morning Pesto class overlooking the Med and watching locals jumping into the refreshing waters of the Med with the small town of Manarola in the background. The Pesto Class was at Nessun Dorma. Their restaurant was located on the cliffs overlooking the small but quiet harbour of Manarola. The experience was a blast with great music and great energy. We learned about the area and the experience of making Pesto. We highly recommend it to anyone staying in the area. Later that day we traveled to Porto Mirabello in the heart of La Spezia to enjoy an afternoon and sunset on a yacht. We enjoyed swimming under the Castello San Giorgio di Lerici in a quiet bay. This was only topped by the next spot at Spiaggia dei Gabbiani of the island of Palmaria. After relaxing in the refreshing waters our next stop was the town of Portovenere. Here we enjoyed the Gelato as you do when in Italy. Walking through the town we got some amazing views of the start

Excellent location with great views and helpful hosts. This was just what we needed prior to the event we had planned for the Friday (son’s wedding). Would recommend to anyone looking for a place such as this although you will need your own transport to get up and down the hill. Station convenient for Cinque Terre. Fantastic.

We spent 2 weeks in August in this beautiful house. The view from the garden is magnificent. Very relaxing sitting under the oilve trees in all privacy, overviewing La Spezia and the Mediterranean Sea while the children were swimming in the little pool. The house is very spacious, clean, well equiped and maintained and a perfect holiday residence for two families like us. The owners are most friendly and helpful. This house is an excellent base to visit nearby places. We went to Cinque Terre (by train from La Spezia Centrale), Bonassola and Lucca.Grazie mille per una vacanza indimenticabile.
