Stayed for 5 days at Alla Marina. Sandro the owner was very helpful - met me at the station and carried my bag to the B&B. Room 2 was excellent - tastefully painted & furnished - comfortable bed, excellent ensuite - good quality towels; a window over the marina through which washing could be hung on the line (pegs provided!)....

We found Riomaggiore and Alla Marina by browsing Trip Advisor. This is the prettiest and most authentic of the five villages in my opinion and Sandro has been the perfect host. He met us at the train, helped with the luggage and lead us on the easiest path to the accommodation. Our room No 3 is at the front facing... More

Alla Marina is small: two view rooms, one non-view room & one 2 bedroom apt w/deck B&B run by the charming Sandro in a building right in the very harbor that has been in his family for centuries, but which he has remodeled (only on the inside!) to provide 21st century comforts and great modern style.  In fact, the shower...

Sandro was the most helpful person we met during our 6 week trip through Italy . He went way over what was expected to make sure our stay was the best it could be . I'd strongly recommend staying at his property Alla Marina . This should be in the Rick Steve book on Italy !

we enjoyed our stay at this property. The room was clean and well appointed with tea/coffee making and a light breakfast provided. The owner met us at ferry and carried our cases to the property which was much appreciated as there was quite a few steps. All in all we can thoroughly recommend this property.

We booked two of the three available apartments at this location. We had rooms 1 & 3. Room 3 is almost directly above the harbor and is quite large. These rooms were recently renovated and are quite nice. We had a car and did have to pay for private parking and it was quite a process with Sandro to get... More

We stayed here in mid-April. Also stayed in Vernazza. Our recommendation to anyone going to Cinque Terre: ignore RS's advice: base your stay in Riomaggiore & book your room at the Alla Marina. Sandro was very friendly & very helpful; our room(s) new, clean, & spacious; the location & view fantastic. Restaurant recommendations: definitely Marina Piccola in Manarola (Irene is... More

My evaluation for this place is mix. In general I feel that it is overrated here for what it is. In short: great room, very nice and friendly owner, but the breakfast and coffee? Absolutely disappointing. And this factor alone for it being a bed and “breakfast” means a star or two should be taken off the rating. I’d most... More

We've just stayed in this B&B last week in Riomaggiore, first time for us to stay in a B&B, so little nervous for sure. Alla Marina is a great surprise to us, clean, neat, newly remodelled, beat the 4 start hotel we stayed in florence, not to mention the price. The house is a 13 century old home, right by... More

I loved staying here so much! The property was completely updated and modern, and the bathroom felt so luxurious, with slate tiles and gleaming fixtures. The building is medieval, with walls several feet thick, so there is no noise problem at all. The location could not be better. We had the room without the ocean view, and let me tell... More
