Giorgio is very kind and helpful. The house is a typical ligurian villa between Portofino and Cinqueterre. There is a big garden with a full optional bbq. We loved it! i'll come back next summer.

Amazing stay in a quaint little town
Cannot say enough positive things about Giorgio, our host, and his property! He was incredibly helpful, always answered any questions we had, provided us with amazing restaurant and beach recommendations, and greeted us very warmly! His home was very spacious, had everything you could need and was only an hour away from La Spezia! Would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking to stay in the Ligurian region

Casa spaziosa e pulita
Casa comoda e spaziosa, ben attrezzata e pulita, molto gentile il signor Giorgio che ci ha fatto anche trovare uno spuntino con specialità locali. Una pecca, forse dovuta a un problema tecnico, l'acqua calda insufficiente al piano superiore. I miei amici alloggiati nelle camere al primo piano hanno usato la doccia del bagno "eccedente" al pian terreno. Andando alla stazione di Sestri si trova parcheggio e si raggiungono molte località in treno, perciò abbiamo visitato la bella costiera da Nervi alle Cinque terre. Da non perdere Portofino e San Fruttuoso. Abbiamo raggiunto Lerici (dove non arriva la ferrovia) in auto lungo la via del ritorno

Super accueil de Giorgio et Lucia. Location superbe excellent rapport qualité prix Nous avons passé un très bon séjour malgré un temps plutôt pluvieux Nous n avons pas pu hélas profiter des nombreuses terrasses. Cadre vraiment très agréable. Nous avons été déçu par le site des 5 terres. Trop de monde et nous pensons que c est un peu surfait merci encore Giorgio
