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

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.

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

Séjour très agréable à Velva, petit village typique de Ligurie. Giorgio, le propriétaire est très sympathique et très accueillant. Un panier avec quelques spécialités régionales nous attendait à notre arrivée. La maison est très spacieuse ( nous étions 13 - 6 adultes et 7 enfants) et très fonctionnelle. Le jardin et ses nombreuses terrasses sont très agréables pour des vacances reposantes. Au plaisir de vous revoir Giorgio....

Quando abbiamo prenotato eravamo un po' timorosi per la distanza dal mare ma arrivati a destinazione ci siamo ricreduti! Velva è un meraviglioso borgo immerso nella collina e ben esposto a sud. Facendo qualche kilometro in macchina si arriva a Sestri Levante, con belle spiagge e una stazione ben servita che ti porta nelle località più famose della riviera ligure di levante come Santa Margherita, le Cinque Terre ecc. La casa è enorme, su tre piani, con un fresco giardino e tutti i confort come tv satellitare wifi ecc. Incredibile l'ospitalità: all'arrivo salame fatto in casa, prosecco, focaccia! Consigliatissimo

I and my friends (4 peolple) lived in Casa dei Gelsi from 26.12.15 to 2.01.16. The only I can say: "Excellent!". The House is modern, clear, big and stay in very quiet and nice place. You have all you need to spend a good vacation away from all the problems of modern life. The host is very friendly and always ready to help - I had a feel, that we knew each other for a long time. I recommend this house for all, who want to spend vacation in atmosphere of real Italian small village.
