Just loved staying at this beautifully run, well located little BnB. Comfortable and clean, delicious breakfasts and wonderful friendly hosts, we could not have found a better place to stay. In the heart of Monterosso and just a few minutes walk from the sea, surrounded by restaurants and little local shops, it was the ideal place from which to have our first experience of Cinque Terre. Can highly recommend.
My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights and we wish we could've stayed longer. The location is amazing -- right on the pedestrian walk , surrounded by restaurants, bars and stores. However, it's on an alley adjacent to the "main" pedestrian road, so its much more charming and quiet. Rafella, the owner, was so lovely. She put us in the room with a private balcony overlooking the walk and recommended we take dinner out there -- which we ended up doing both nights. We ordered our dinners from the restaurant next door and they delivered them directly to our balcony! It truly was an amazing experience. (There is a wine shop a few doors down !) Breakfast is simple but tasty with fresh focaccia from the local bakery. Rafella was born and raised in Monterosso al Mare so she knows everyone and has great "off the beaten" hikes, which we really enjoyed. Look forward to visiting her place again.…
This charming B&B is smack dab in the center of old Monterosso - next to great shops, restaurants, and cafes that makes the town so special. Our room was up a steep flight of stairs - small but clean and cozy, with a lovely balcony overlooking the street. At first we were concerned about light/noise from the street, but the shutters and blinds were excellent, and we slept very well with no disruptions. There is also a shared balcony on the top floor, which was a wonderful place to sit and enjoy a glass of wine. The B&B is next door to a great little restaurant (tip - they'll take your food up to the B&B balcony to eat) and a 3 minute walk to beach. Also short walk to the train station or the main road/parking lots (Though we do not recommend driving in to Monterosso - parking was a nightmare.) This was the perfect home base for us to explore the Cinque Terre, and a fantastic value. Staying in Monterosso was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy, and we recommend L'Antica Terrazza!…
Our wonderful hostess helped my family of four feel extremely comfortable. The gorgeous bedrooms are immaculate and we were in the perfect location to get to fantastic restaurants, the beach and train station. The breakfast was excellent!!
Spent two nights here, and from the reservation enquiry to the check out it was a perfect experience thanks to Raffaella and Elena. The location is perfect at the centre of tiny Monterosso, and both the ladies were always available to answer queries and provide tips to best explore the cinque terre. Unlike a lot of other places, its quite easy to get here even from the station – as mostly it’s a flat terrain. The rooms are beautiful and we had one with a private balcony where even the restaurant next door can serve you. The terrace on the top is open to use all day and evening and is perfect to spend a nice quiet evening with your wine and soak in the charm of Monterosso. Even though the location is in the buzz of all restaurants and shopping, once you shut the door/windows there is silence and you aren’t disturbed. The breakfast is served in the small breakfast room at the reception and offered a good variety with the most delicious and freshly baked focaccia. The only suggestion, would be to provide international power plugs/adapters in the room to make it much easier to charge items – however this really is a minor gripe. If you want to stay in the center of Monterosso and still have the quiet and charm, this is the place. We will be back!…
