4 days in Riomaggiore

Nice little cottage with a comfortable bed. The host was very helpful. The air conditioning helped with the chilly evenings and mornings.It is easy to reach if you come by train but it is up a steep hill. All the villages of Cinque Terre are easily accessed and I thought it was the best of the 5 villages to stay in- at the start of via dell’amore.

We absolutely loved this place. It was almost like it was built into a cave, but the inside was so spacious and bright. It had everything that we needed a spacious bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, and even a little porch to sit out and have our wine and cheese and prosciutto. It was literally straight up from the train station. We looked up and thought we had a long ways to go, but all of a sudden there we were at the waterfalls right outside the house ,we would highly recommend this place,there were only two of us, but it would be spacious enough for two couples for a short stay or a small family

Very Nice & Cozy

Nice and cozy studio apartment at the top of the hill in Riomaggiore. It's a little hike up the hill but everything is on a hill! We quickly got used to the hills. Very sweet owner met us at the train station and then she walked us up to the apartment. Great location directly up the hill from the train station. The place is very nice and very comfy with a little patio outside. Would definitely recommend and will definitely stay here again on a return trip!

What a perfect little apartment

We really enjoyed staying in this little apartment which was very well set out. It's proximity to the train station, especially with no stairs was excellent and we greatly appreciated Ilena meeting us at the station and showing us directly to the front door. It was only a short little walk to the main street where we followed some of Ilena's suggestions for meals with great results. The apartment is far enough away from the busy main street that noise and passing tourists were never an issue. A colleague is booked to stay in this apartment later this year and I messaged her during our stay that we had found a definite winner.

Just needed a heads up, since we are older, that it would be up a very steep incline. Photos showed it flat. We had heavy suitcases to pull up hill.

Wonderful

My husband and I and our two adult children had a fantastic stay here. Comfortable, clean and convenient. Easy check in and check out process. A very close 5 minute walk to the train, 6-7 min walk to the town’s main street and harbour, and very close to the restaurant with some of the best pizza we had in Italy. A great home base to hop the train and explore the towns of Cinque Terre. Host was very responsive to questions. I would stay here again. We travelled fairly light so the walk up to the property from the train station with our luggage was easy, if you have a lot of big pieces you may want to book a luggage taxi to bring your bags up.

Great base for exploring Cinque Terre

Ilenia met us at the train station and walked us up the hill to her place by a little stream. The little house was clean, well furnished with everything you need, even a little patio for sitting outside although it doesn't get too much sun. Ilenia was charming and helpful with lots of tips of what to do and where to shop for food. This is a great location for exploring Cinque Terre as it is not as touristy as Vernazza or Monterosso and it is nice and close to the train station unlike Corniglia -- which was a favourite town to visit after climbing 375 stairs from the train station. There is a lot to see in Riomaggiore -- be prepared for lots of stairs! We hiked over the hill to Manarola -- beware, it is a steep climb up and over the 'hill' since the 'Lovers Walk' was closed due to a rockslide. Otherwise, it is only 1.80 euros and 2 minutes by train.

Great location

Location is very good. It's 2 minutes from the train station, yet you don't hear the trains. It's also away from the center of the village, so there aren't many tourists; only those who stay in the same area. The owner responded promptly and was very good. The unit is good, for the most part. It is showing some age, with some updating needed, but nothing bad. The mattress was old, or at least overused and not in a good shape. The towels are really over-used; worse than at cheap motels. I definitely think an investment is needed into new towels. We asked for better/newer towels on the first day and the owner provided. again, she was very responsive to our communications. The unit is advertised with parking lot. You need to be aware that the parking lot is not at the property. It's about 20 minute walk away or a short taxi ride away. I don't recommend walking with suitcases. the taxi is 15 euro, so not a big deal. One issue we had that we were leaving early in the morning 6:30 am and could not get a taxi for that early, so we called the taxi for the nigt before to take our luggage to the car and then just walked in the morning.

La miglior scelta

Soggiorno fantastico nel paesino meraviglioso di Riomaggiore. La casa delle oche è situata in una posizione perfetta e strategica per potersi godere al massimo il paesino, sfruttare al meglio tutti i servizi disponibili per spostarsi e godersi anche il mare e la spiaggia. La casa si presenta fin da subito molto accogliente e calorosa. Dispone di ogni servizio, è perfettamente accessoriata e curata in ogni minimo dettaglio, ogni angolo della casa rende infatti il soggiorno molto piacevole e confortevole. La proprietaria è super disponibile e all’accoglienza offre moltissime indicazioni per rendere il vostro soggiorno il più bello possibile (ci ha spiegato come muoversi tra le cinque terre e non solo,consigliato dove poter mangiare e cosa visitare, regalandoci anche buoni sconti in ristoranti/bar). La casa è moderna ed anche ogni suo componente infatti è nuovo è ben funzionante. Altro punto a favore è la posizione della casa: molto comoda per ogni necessità ma allo stesso tempo anche isolata che vi permette molta privacy durante il vostro soggiorno. Consiglio molto questo soggiorno sia per l’appartamento in se che ci ha reso la vacanza meravigliosa ed anche per il paesino, Riomaggiore,che è a mio parere il posto migliore in cui soggiornare per poter visitare al meglio tutte le cinque terre.

Ilenia was fantastic! The home was perfect!

Ilenia met us at the train station and walked us to the home. It is situated on a quiet street close to the action but early tucked away for quiet time. She also provided us with multiple discount cards to use at shops and restaurants around town. Finally, she sat us down and walked us through the train, boat, tour and hike schedules and options. It was a perfect home away from home. We cooked one of the nights and the kitchen is super user friendly. We loved the home and would definitely stay there again! -Agnes &Mike
