Beach Paradise - Cicerone

Localisation Accueil Possibilité de parking 15 euros À côté plage . 8’ à pied gare Ambiance quartier

Location - this is right by the excellent Levanto beach - the only other beach apart from Monterosso - beach has pebbles, some water shoes might make it more comfortable, though, it was pleasant overall without as well. The house was clean and as advertised - all the fixtures were modern. Beds were clean and comfortable. The walk from the station is downhill - depends on the weather, with larger luggages, could have taken a 10EUR cab. Host was pleasant and easy to connect with. Explained everything in great detail! Levanto is a fabulous town - much nicer pace (slower) than any Cinque Terre towns. Was super easy to get around by train if you don't want to hike. Station is a 10 min walk, largely flat.

Nothing major at all! Minor gotcha, with a large family on day 1 the heater ran out of water. While the heater is large and modern, it heats it in quantums - we got by fine the remainder days by being mindful. Also, had only one key, some guest had perhaps walked away with the spare.

Fantastic! Location is terrific, apartment is perfect and easily sleeps 8, with air conditioning in all the rooms for when it is needed. There are free and paid beaches, with nice shops and restaurants nearby, along with dancing in the evening the square that our girls enjoyed. But the best part is the owner, Paulo, who is wonderful and kind. It was our first visit to Cinque Terre and we will be coming back again to Levanto and hopefully this same apartment.

I wish it had one more toilet.

The location was very central. Our host was very responsive and helpful. When we had difficulty using the stove, he promptly paid us a visit to help us.

The place is located right above a busy bar, which was consistently loud late into the night, despite closing all the windows. The WiFi worked best in the breakfast nook and the bathroom, and lost signal in other rooms. The curtain rod in the kitchen was broken, as was the knob for the window in the breakfast nook.
