    The host Dino was superb and very helpful, the room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was great. Dino and Anna have transformed an old property into an unique and cozy B&B with love and attention to detail.

    I would've preferred to spend more time in this location. Also have the availability to go to the places Dino suggested as I had some things already pre-planned. As far as what Dino and family could do better - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! THEY ARE GREAT AS IS!!!

    Where do I begin...there is so much to like at this property. Starting off with the host Dino and his lovely family. They are incredibly welcoming and friendly family. If you are curious to see what it's like to stay with locals and experience how they live and eat.... this is the place for you. Yes, it's a bit off the beaten path, but it's so rewarding when you get there. You walk on the property under a canopy of grape vines....and have spectacular views of the countryside. We were welcomed by Dino & his family with wine & quality snacks with amazing conversation. You have incredible recommendations on meal options and places to visit. Breakfast can also be had in the kitchen while they are cooking or on a deck overlooking the mountains. Days are cool and nights are so refreshing. Again, I can go on and on about how spectacular this location is.

    Nothing, all was great

    We've had such a great time at this place; the hosts were going above and beyond to make our vacation amazing. Our room was very nice and clean and had everything you need when travelling - and in case we needed anything extra, the hosts were very kind and helpful. It was extremely hot when we were there, but the AC in the room made it our little cold paradise. Our dog absolutely adored all the open space and, by the end of the trip, felt like a true king of the castle. We also went on a boat tour with them, which was one of the most magical experiences. This place absolutely exceeded all our expectations partly because of the open-hearted and warm welcome by the hosts. Fantastic value for the money and only great memories.

    Nothing, I'd go back and stay with him in a heartbeat.

    If you're lucky enough to find a room (he's often sold out), just take it. One of the best surprises to see fully renovated rooms with AC, super clean bathrooms and a homemade breakfast with meats, focaccia and drinks. Free parking was also appreciated.

    Few bugs like mosquitos or ants here and there, but that's nature. Great view from the balcony. Enjoy the silence

    Dino is a great host. Always trying to take care of your needs. Even though there was a language barrier, his communication was good enough for "where to go, how to travel, what for breakfast". Place is clean, free parking space, 10 min by car to the train or boat station. He helped us with finding free parking lots in town.

    The owners were wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. Location was beautiful, with excellent views. a bit of a steep driveway, but that is the nature of the area. Interesting rustic country property. Clean comfortable room, and it was nice to be offered a breakfast. Lovely terrace to enjoy the views. Great views from the room, and so quiet at night. We used the “W” app to navigate, and ended up stuck in the wrong, narrow road. Dino came to find us, and guide us to the property. He saw we were stressed and invited us into his kitchen for a glass of wine. You really can’t provide better service than that! Lots of help with where to go, where to park etc. Altogether, a great stay.

    This is a special place! If you’re looking for something out of ordinary, calm, and quiet - that’s it. Dino is one of kindest hosts that I know - he went above and beyond to provide us with everything we needed. When we arrived, he greeted us with a big plate of food and wine, and we chatted with him and with another guest in the kitchen. He gave us multiple tips for transport/ferries to Cinque Terre and around, even though he doesn’t speak English - he does a really great job using Google Translate. one night Dino threw a big dinner for all the guests in the garden, brought plenty of wine, made homemade potatoes. He’s incredibly nice - made sure we have everything we need for breakfast, asked what vegan products I needed. Our room was cute, with the terrace overlooking mountains. Lights on the terrace made this place special - from the terrace we saw stars and milky way clearly. We’d recommend staying at Dino’s - this place has a unique “home” feel.

    The host, Dino, is incredibly nice. He has put in all the effort to make our stay enjoyable and we thought he really went above and beyond. A delicious Italian breakfast was served every morning and we were given great suggestions when it came to restaurants. I can only recommend to book this place for your next Cinque terre holiday.

    Our only complaint was the bed. The rather thin mattress on the slatted frame does not provide a comfortable enough sleeping area. Other than that, our stay was very positive.

    Our host was extremely hospitable. He helped us with many things and answered our questions. We had cheese and wine together and even went for dinner on our last day.

    Check-in was a little complicated, but it worked out in the end. And don't forget your bug spray!

    Nestled in the woody mountains near La Spezia, it's a welcome reprieve from the heat and city bustle. Breakfast is also included in the price, but we had to go to a nearby cafe to get it.

    The parking: you need to be very skilled to be able to park. If Dino would make a small parking lot for the guess, then this place is a 10/10!
