Arriving in Riomaggiore was like walking into a fairytale. SailorsRest was our favorite stay of our entire Italy vacation. The spectacular views of the beautiful sea and stunning sunsets were enjoyed from our room as well as from the private terrace where you can sit and relax away from the crowds. The outdoor garden was a wonderful place to soak our tired legs while admiring the view after a busy day. Staying here allowed us unlimited access to walk the Via dell’Amore in both directions. If we are ever in the area again we would book this place instantly! ❤️❤️

The room is very large and has everything you need, especially as there is a large private terrace overlooking the sea. The bathroom is large with a nice shower, bidet & window. The view from our private terrace was gorgeous, as advertised. Sleeping to the sound of gentle waves and waking up to the quiet of the cliff life on the Mediterranean Sea is priceless. The best is experiencing Riomaggiore once all the daily tourist’s boats are gone. Great service from Andrea and her team, there when needed but fully respectful of my privacy. We would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in Riomaggiore or Cinque Terre.

We stayed in this beautiful apartment with a private sea-view terrace, and the views were absolutely breathtaking — the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee or a sunset aperitivo. The apartment was spotlessly clean, with great attention to detail. The bedroom was spacious and cozy, the bed very comfortable, and the bathroom modern and perfectly maintained — everything felt fresh, welcoming, and well cared for. The host was friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The location is close to the village center and the walking paths, so it's convenient.

We loved this beautiful, modern and spotless room overlooking the harbor and town. The room is large enough with a large closet & everything you need, especially as there is a private large terrace overlooking the sea. The bathroom is large with a nice shower, bidet & window. The bed was very comfortable, and coffee/tea/water & biscotti were provided in the room. Andrea was a delightful host who met us at the train & carried our luggage up the many stairs, and was always available for questions. We would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in Cinque Terre!

Lovely studio. Separate access to private terrace just a few steps away from the flat. Good coffee machine, clean place. Lovely, charming studio in the heart of Riomaggiore. Keys were passed to us by a lovely lady Andrea, who explained all to us. Really liked the recycling bins being put in place considering the place being green. Good air-conditioning in place. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Kids were hoping for a hammock as in the photo but none in place. Nevertheless still lovely stay with a beautiful view. 10 out of 10 :-)

The location was top-notch, just steps down to the beach. And with the perfect views of Riomaggiore spots for picture-taking. The sea-view from our private terrace was mind-blowing! Exactly as pictured in their Booking.com page. The owners, Michele and Andrea, were very kind, helpful and very accommodation to our needs. The room was clean, bright, and comfortable. You cannot beat the view of row boats waiting to be taken out onto the water and the cute little Cinque Terre houses side by side. Highly recommend due to friendly host, location, and comfort.
