We knew this would be good. However it is so much better then good. Everything is brilliant. This would have to be one of the best places we have ever stayed! Lemon cake and limoncino home made as a welcome. Seriously I was won over before that but it just made it all soooooo much more amazing.

We had some trepidation about staying here as we are in our sixties and had felt that it may be a climb to the room. It was indeed quite a haul up the steps but so worth it! The room was lovely with bright and airy decor. Small but adequate bathroom and useful stuff like coffee maker, fridge and safe... More

Everything about this place is fabulous, At the bottom of the marina the up, up, up, the stairs! Rang the bell of the apartment and Maria (the mother) came out from her apartment. She speaks no English, and I speak no Italian, and the translator app on my phone was not much help, but she had a list of guest... More

We booked our stay in Riomaggiore with some trepidation as "The Room" sounded a bit scary. I am writing this review sitting in front of my window in "The Room" and listening to the incredible surf and sea gulls with all my stress melting away. The room is wonderfully equipped with all the emenities and we love the view and... More

This beautiful accommodation in Cinque Terre took my breath away immediately. As I stepped out onto our balcony for the first time I was instantly captivated by the most incredible seascape I have ever witnessed. During the mornings we listened to the crashing waves and in the evening we sipped our complimentary limoncello given to us from the owner's son,... More

This is a gem of a place to stay. The view is unbelievable & the sound of the crashing waves below create a "white-out" sound that is relaxing and peaceful. The owner and her son are very friendly. Their concern with our needs was very nice and extremely genuine. This is THE place to stay in Riomaggiore. The son made... More

Just returned (May 2013) from perhaps the best experience we have ever had. When we entered our room At La Scogliera we were mesmerized.by its charm (and that means really charming charm). Awaiting us on our little kitchen table, was a welcome bottle of Paola's family wine and windows overlooking the sea which I immediately opened and hung out of... More

This is the second time we have stayed at La Scogliera and hopefully we will come again. Last time we stayed for three nights, this time eight nights and I wish it was longer. It is one of the best places we have ever stayed. The view of the harbour from all rooms of the apartment is mesmerising, it is... More

My husband and I are from California. It was our first time visiting and we found the place to be very clean and well maintained. The staff is very very friendly. We enjoyed our afternoons and mornings sitting on the small balcony overlooking the bay. It is relatively easy to get around the town from here once you get familiar... More
