IRMA Colua Manarola

location was great . we parked on the road just before the barrier and it was safe.

difficult to open the main door for the first time but once you know it wasn't a problem.

in valley of Manarola, no sea view as described but in pedestrian zone and close to see, very friendly and flexible host, prices are mad in 5terre, but this one readonable, only svailable for one night. would habe enjoyed to stay longer. parking up the hill as advised by host worked fine.

all good

I really liked everything! The apartment is very nice and comfortable, well furbished, nice bathroom and a kitchen. Perfect location close to everything.. The balcony form the living room has a pretty view. I even regret I spent only 1 night there! Great communication with the owner (Irma), excellent instructions on how to find the apartment, etc.

At the time we booked this property there were only 6 photos online so we were a bit apprehensive. We didn't need to be, the property was much larger than it seemed and well equipped for our stay. Irma was an excellent host and helped advise us exactly where we could park our car. There were 3 of us staying here with 1 couple sharing the main bedroom and a third adult sleeping on the sofa bed in the large living room. The main bed was comfortable and the room was spacious. The sofa bed was typical, not great, but adequate for a few nights. The living room is large and we could leave the sofa bed out the entire time we stayed while still using the table and having extra space The bathroom is large and the shower has good water pressure and temperature. There's a washing machine in the bathroom and the apartment is so large we had no issues hanging our clothes on the airer in the living room (which is bigger than some apartments we have rented). The kitchen is fully equipped and although we didn't cook it would have been easy to do so. The property is located on the main street in the village about halfway up the hill. This means it very convenient to visit the shops and restaurants and the walk up from the water is much less steep than it is for most other properties. There's a cafe/bar just outside the front door and a supermarket 100m away. There's not a sea view but there is a nice terrace looking out over the main street and onto the other side of the valley so you can get some fresh air. With regards to the villages Manarola is probably the best to stay in 2023 as theres a bus that can take you to Volastra so you don't have to hike up the steep hill.

Everything was great. The furnishings are not super modern but this is one of the most affordable places in Manarola and I'd much rather pay Irma's price than double that and have a new kitchen.

wonderful comfy bed, spacious apartment, fully kitted kitchen, short walk to groceries and to the hiking trail to Volastra and Corniglia

facing north, it was quite shady which would be great in summer, but we had gloomy weather. There was a view of other houses, not the sea but I realise sea views are much more expensive… so great value, but without a view

Absolutely fantastic, central, convenient, spotless, wonderful hospitality and right next door to the supermarket. Irma was amazing. I will be back for sure in the special part of the world!

Self contained flat gave me opportunity to cook for myself after a few weeks of eating out. The apartment was clean and well supplied - a perfect base for exploring Cinque Terre.

Nice atmosphere. This apartment suited our needs perfectly. More than enough space. Had everything we needed for living, cooking, laundry. Located right at the top of the main street in Manarola, the balcony has a nice view. Host is helpful, but also not intrusive. We will come and stay again.

This is not something that can really be be improved, but there is often some noise from tourists walking and talking in the street below. This was not bad in October, but it could perhaps be more in the Summer. Anyway, it can also be fun to people-watch from the balcony!

It was all so splendid!!! I loved the comfortable homie-ness of the place, and just it being in Manarola made it that much more magical!

pfffff there was nothing to not like, i lived everything!

Our stay at Irma’s apartments was the best. She is such a nice person, the whole apartment is very cozy and has a lot of space, also has a great location. We were enjoying everything, definitely worth staying!

Everything! Incredible location, awesome balcony, amazing coffee footsteps away, wonderful owner of the property

Everything was perfect

Would have been perfect if AC was in place

In this placement, everything was perfect. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The village of Manarola was, in our opinion, the most atmospheric of all the villages in the Cinque Terre.

Irma was extremely helpful in accommodating my arrival time. She also checked in on my later to make sure everything was fine. And on top of all of it, she left a few bottles of wine in the fridge from her families vineyard for me to taste. She was a super host and her place had everything I needed (washer/drying rack, even a beach umbrella).

Location is good, with a short walk from the train station. Appreciate very much the detailed and clear instruction from the owner on how to get to the apartment. The apartment has everything we need, also a big living room and a balcony with excellent view.

None.

Beautiful location, spot on!

Amazing location, very comfortable, and the host was incredibly welcoming and helpful!

The location was perfect.

Su amplitud, y que guarda los elementos estéticos de Manarola, con sencillez y belleza. Está a tiro de piedra de todo: parking libre y de costo, rutas de senderismo, y de las principales atracciones. Irma está muy atenta de todo, muy servicial. Sin pensarlo volvería.

Todo estuvo estupendo.
