About this property

CIN: IT011024C2KJM8VIQN Casa degli Aranci - sleeps 4+2

This flat is situated on 2 floors and can host up until max 6 people with its 3 confortable bedrooms.

IMPORTANT NOTE ON RATES:
The price you will get from Homeway is referred to the first floor only (4 pax) while if you wish to rent both floors you should consider a 30% higher price. If you are 2 and just wish to rent the second floor you can consider a 30% lower price. Final cleaning fees should be paid on site at arrival (60 euros for one floor or 80 euros for both floors rentals).

Flat description:

The flat , which has been recently renewed (2012) is located in a typical local house in Riomaggiore historical downtown. It is 300 meters from the sea.

The first floor has a living room, 2 bedrooms and bathroom. The second floor has a small living room with kitchenette, a bedroom and another bathroom.

The 2 floors can be rented together (for 5 or 6 people) or separately (first floor only for 4 people or second floor only for 2 people). The privacy is 100% guaranteed in all cases.

Starting on the 2015 season we also have a small 'secret' garden for our guests. It is between the house and the mountain, confortable and nice with its orange, tangerin and lemon trees. It will be possible to spend here a few relaxing moments during your holiday. The garden will be available for those groups renting the first floor or both floors together and we will only request a small additional amount for the final cleaning (of course, only for those people who will like to use it).

Our rates are referred to the first floor part only: please read carefully on the notes below the price list the additional info for the second floor only or for the whole flat.


The apartment is a few minutes walking from the railway station or from the car parking.
We advise our guests that it is strongly recommended to arrive by train and to leave the car at La Spezia railway station parking as the car is not useful at 5 Terre (where you can go by train, by boat or even on foot across all the villages).
Riomaggiore is only 8 minutes by train from La Spezia and the parking in La Spezia is far cheaper than in 5 Terre.

Family stay in Riomaggiore

A really great place to explore Riomaggiore and the southern parts of the Cinque Terre. The property is very central but set back from the main streets and feels quiet and tranquil, yet it’s really easy to nip out to get an early morning focaccia from the bakery! The place was very clean and well equipped for cooking meals and really suited our purposes as a family of 5 people. We arrived late in the evening on the train and walked up to the apartment to be greeted by Gaia who had stayed late to meet us, which we really appreciated. Thanks!

Great location-Tight Accommodations

I was initially hesitant to leave this review, as I’ve noticed the owner can be quite sensitive to anything less than a perfect rating. However, I believe honest feedback is important and helpful to future guests.My husband and I stayed here with our three adult children (ages 20, 22, and 25). The location is truly fantastic; central, convenient, and a great base for exploring the 4 other towns.That said, aside from the location, the house itself is somewhat limited in terms of comfort. While it was clean, the space is very tight both upstairs and downstairs. My husband and I stayed upstairs while the other three stayed downstairs, and even with that separation, it still felt quite cramped. The most significant issue, though, are the beds. They are older spring mattresses, and the springs are extremely pronounced, to the point where we could feel them pressing into our backs and sides throughout the night. It was genuinely uncomfortable, and unfortunately, it made it hard to get restful sleep during our stay. Even something as simple as a quality mattress topper could make a meaningful difference.I’m not sharing this to be unkind, but in the hope that it helps future guests make an informed decision, and perhaps encourages some thoughtful updates to the property.All in all we did enjoy our stay in Riomaggiore!

Compact apartment right in the heart of the villiage

Proximity allowed us to enjoy Riomaggiore easily. Just up the main street to the port and beach. Perfect for our family of five to come and go, with a icecream shop right next door. The kitchenette was practical and we all slept well.

A little piece of paradise

The place was very clean. We rented both the bottom and top portions for our family of 6. There are complaints about stairs in other reviews, if you have mobility issues Cinque Terre will be very challenging. We used the back garden/seating area to enjoy the tranquility while sipping some local wine. Don't hesitate to book!

Everything you need for a short stay.

It has everything you need for a short stay. We stayed in the middle of the summer the AC was amazing hence made our sleep really great. Communicating with the owner and Gaia was easy and she’s very sweet. The instruction to get to the place a little bit confusing but we made it. The shower room in the main floor was a little bit small for my husband (6’2”) but perfect for me and my kids. Would recommend and stay here again.

A Wonderful Stay in Riomaggiore

My three adult granddaughters and myself had a great stay In Giuliana’s apartment in Riomaggiore. Giuliana and Mrs Gaia the housekeeper were both very helpful and made sure that our stay was comfortable. Communication with both of them was excellent. We booked both the upstairs and downstairs apartments which worked very well for our group. The apartment was a perfect base for exploring Cinque Terre villages. Riomaggiore itself was a gem. Altogether a truely memorable stay.

It was great , BUT…

I’ve paid less for better. The bedrooms were almost as pictured, and the shared areas as well, but they are not 100% forthcoming in the booking process. The bathroom isn’t pictured for a reason, and leaves something to be desired. The “shower” is a 4x4 tub with no curtain and a hand held sprayer. Water would randomly go out and either be scalding or freezing cold. MAKE SURE to read the fine print while booking, because this rental is actually two apartments/rentals in one. They gave me keys that accessed both floors – even after claiming we did not book the upstairs/third bedroom (I’m 90% sure I did) – this made us uncomfortable. We had no idea if someone else was going to be staying up there or if they would have access to our rooms like we did. The rental manager also had no idea, and told us we would have to pay extra fees if we used the upstairs, even if we had already booked it. We avoided the upstairs and the trouble. When paying the extra cleaning fee and the tax, it must be paid in cash. We were not prepared for this (our fault), but the rental manager said we could leave the money under the mat at the end of our stay. She then proceeded to come back 4 times throughout the weekend asking us for the money. This place did what it needed. It gave us a place to sleep, and while the showers did not make us feel clean, it was only for a weekend. If you want to stay in 5terre, look in La Spezia before booking here. You’ll find nicer places for less money.

Very Accommodating!

We loved the house, and Giada was so responsive, accommodating and welcoming! She met us at the car and guided my spouse to the parking spot. She helped us get settled in and was available any time we needed her. The house easily accommodated 5 adults, with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. We could not use both showers at the same time due to water temp and pressure, but that was not an issue for us. It was such a great spot. We absolutely loved it!
