4. La Torretta Lodge

SUSTAINABLE TOURISM ⭐️ The best stay in Manarola

La Torretta Lodge in Manarola truly is a once in a lifetime experience. Offering an incredible view over the picturesque town and located inside of an ancient tower.

La Torretta is also the perfect place to stay if you don’t want to contribute to the short term rental industry that is currently going on in Cinque Terre. Cause did you know tat by now only 300 residents still live there. All of the other appartments are reserved for tourists. My guess is it won’t be long until Cinque Terre becomes more of a museum than an authentic Italian village.

There are 11 rooms in total, all offering their very own unique view. Their Classic Room is perfect if it’s just the two of you, if you’re traveling with small children I would suggest going for one of the bigger rooms.

5. Il Borgo dei Ricordi, Terre Marine

Perfect for a more quiet stay

Corniglia is one of the least visited towns in Cinque Terre. Probably cause it’s located on a hill instead of by the seaside. But if you’re looking for a more quiet experience and a cheaper stay then this is the town for you.

Il Borgo dei Ricordi, Terre Marine has a lovely terrace that overlooks the town of Corniglia and its rolling hills. And good to know is that the train between the villages of Cinque Terre already starts running at 5am and only stops after midnight. So even when staying in Corniglia you can go for an evening sunset swim in one of the other towns.

6. Rossi Tramonti 1, Terremarine

🐶 Pets are allowed 🏡 FULLY EQUIPPED APPARTMENT

This fully equipped appartment comes with air conditions, a kitchen and even a laundry machine. Perfect if you’re staying for a longer time in Cinque Terre.

When booking your stay you can choose between different apartment. I would choose one that has a terrace with a view over the rolling hills and Monterosso in the background. That way you can watch the sunset from your very own private balcony.

7. Candidina

💵 Best Price Quality

Vernazza is definitely one of the most beautiful towns in Cinque Terre and might even be my personal favorite. I think that if I would go back to Cinque Terre that I would try to book this apartment.

Cadidina offers a stunning view over the harbor of Vernazza and within 5 minutes walking you’ll find yourself at the centre of the historic town.

Go for a sunset swim or grab a drink at Bar Gianni Franzi. And in the morning hike up to one of the beautiful viewpoints over Vernazza.

8. The Sunset Suite Vernazza

🌅 The best view over Vernazza

While The Sunset Suite Vernazza might be on the more expensive side, it does come with one of the most spectacular views over the picturesque town of Vernazza.

All you have to do is grab a bottle of wine from the local store and a take away pizza and you’re all set for the most incredible sunset from your very own rooftop terrace.

Also, how perfect is it that you have your very own lounge chairs for during the day? When the streets are litteraly combusting with people you can simply relax.

9. Eremo della Maddalena

💦 Swimming pool with a view

The Eremo della Maddalena sleeps up to 10/12 people and is divided into two separate wings that are united by internal covered courtyard. Upon entering the main wing of the house there is a small living room with a fireplace that leads into the fully equipped country style kitchen. To the right there is a bedroom with a queen size bed and a bathroom. Downstairs there is a large living room.

It’s located high up in the hills above Monterosso al Mare, far away from the big crowds of Cinque Terre. But still close enough so you can explore the beautiful coastal towns at ease and in the early and later hours when all of the crowds are gone.

There’s a huge garden that you can explore and during the hottest hours of the day you can simply relax by the pool. A very unique experience when traveling to Cinque Terre!

10. Bea’s Apartment – The window to the sea

🏖 Perfect for a beach holiday

If you’re looking for an apartment that’s located right at the beachfront then Bea’s Apartment is the right fit for you.

Monterosso al Mare is the only town that has its own sandy beach so if that’s very important to you then this is the ideal place to stay for you.

The town itself is in my personal opinion less beautiful than the 4 others so the proximity of a sandy beach will be the deciding factor.
