Family-friendly holiday rentals in Manarola

Wonderful apartment with very warm hosts. We were there with baby and dog and felt very welcome. The private terrace offers a magnificent view of the city and the sea, the kitchen is very well equipped. We will be happy to come back!

We were very satisfied with Alessandra. She was always available, I have never been received so kindly. The house is beautiful, a great pizza oven and a large pool. We totally enjoyed the stay and were very enthusiastic!! Thank you very much again ❤️

We had a wonderful stay at this unique home. Never stayed in a castle before...and it was awesome! It is full of history and charm, with a family feel. We spent a good amount of time out on the stone deck enjoying wine and the great views. We also enjoyed simply walking around the inside and looking at the old paintings and decorations. It is great when an Airbnb goes beyond being just a place to sleep and instead becomes a big part of the overall travel experience. The castle is modernized in the important ways, but the host does go out of his way to portray it accurately in the full description. Also, it is a bit outside of town and so it may be best to have a vehicle during your visit. The host was extremely responsive when I had a couple of questions, and the arrival/check in process was made easy with an in-person meeting when we arrived. We also had an amazing dinner at the restaurant they recommended. Overall, this was an exceptional Airbnb and I would highly recommend it.

Great 3 night stay at the end of April with cloudy weather. Villa Lilla has a lot of assets. Well equipped house, photo compliant, quiet, clean. Nice hosts. The jacuzzi is really nice (including when the sky is cloudy). We switched the heater to winter mode and the heaters worked right away. The second bathroom is more of an extra bathroom but the main bathroom is enough for 4 people. Parking space included and courtyard closed by a gate. The sound of the small church bell is very weak and adds charm from my point of view. Ideally located between Portofino and the 5 lands (we went there by train). I don't realize if the short road in pins can be a problem, we live in the Alps so for us it's no problem. But it goes with the WONDERFUL VIEW. I recommend Villa Lilla.

Very nice house immersed in the countryside! The pool has a great view

This apartment is located at the Corniglia bus stop - so it’s easy to take the bus up and skip those 377 steps if you want! The apartment has a lovely terrace with beautiful views of the Mediterranean, comfortable furniture, and air conditioner units in every room. The only thing to be aware of is: if you like to shower, that is a bit difficult in the jacuzzi as the ceilings are low (but if you like bathing it’s a cozy tub with a cool sunroof which opens for ventilation)

Our stay in Fiascherino was magical. The apartment is even prettier than in the photos and really functional. The terrace and the view are sublime. The surroundings, especially Tellaro, are so pretty! Thank you Giuliano, we'll be happy to come back.

Wonderful place with a view that you will fall in love with from the first moment. Dream house, 5 stars more than deserved both for the place and for the super Laura. Thank you

Gorgeous, gorgeous home! Wished we stayed longer to really enjoy the outdoor terrace a lot more. Extremely clean and Azzurra was a very gracious host who allowed us to drop off our suitcases when we arrived earlier than the check-in time. Phenomenal views with a gorgeous outdoor area, worth it for the walk through the village. The village itself is also one of the quieter ones out of the 5, so would recommend to stay in to get a more local feel. For those reading, don’t do what we did which was walk up the hill with our suitcases! Azzurra did mention the bus from the station before we arrived and we should have listened! I will highly recommend waiting to take it to reach the village. Will definitely come back again! Thank you Azzurra!

The Blue Path apartment is set up with three beds and two baths. The kitchen area is sufficient for meal preparation. The unit and linens are clean. Our hosts were very friendly and responsive. The true gem is the outside living space which includes a covered patio with table and chairs as well as beautifully maintained vines and flowers, all of which offer an elevated and wonderful view of the sea and the town of Corniglia. The drive as well as hiking along the blue path were somewhat challenging for our group of four adults in our early 60s but worth this unique experience. There is parking and a small juice bar nearby. We received a welcome visit from a neighbor’s cat. We would highly recommend this property for quiet relaxation, good exercise and connection to the outdoors.

We absolutely loved our stay in Castè — it was a magical place. Peaceful, beautiful views, an inviting courtyard with fairy lights and fireflies. The apartment was clean and filled with antique furniture and lovely details. Gianni and Antonella were very accommodating, meeting us at check in and showing us everything to ensure we were comfortable. They also spent the first 30 minutes, explaining sites to see in Cinque Terre, where to eat, park the car, and some insider tips. We felt right at home and can't wait to go back!

Gianluca and Marilena were amazing hosts who have the most amazing apartment located in the beautiful village of Casté. With the view of mountains and the sound of nature surrounding us, we couldn't of asked for a better way to spend our week in Italy. Definitely recommend renting a car as makes it much easier to access and gives you a great option to view other surrounding areas alternatively to Cinque Terre. Brilliant options of walking direct from the property to Riomaggiore and Porto Venere. They also recommended some incredible restaurants to visit. We definitely would love to return here one day.

francesca’s place was perfect for two guests. it was close to everything in old town and had a beautiful sea view. the furniture and interior was updated and clean upon arrival. the bed was a bit too firm for us but overall the stay was exactly what we were looking for. she also provided beach towels!

Marco’s place is the perfect for a La Spezia stay. It’s just a short and easy walk from the train station. The directions were clear and step-by-step instructions were beyond helpful. The apartment is very tidy and far more spacious than the pictures let up. We were a group of 4 adults and one child and were able to walk around freely without feeling crammed. The washer was also very useful. We couldn’t figure out if it was a washer/dryer combo, but there is ample space in the back to hang dry clothes. Marco had stocked some treats which were much appreciated, especially during rushed mornings to make excursions. We were a bit surprised by the bed situation. There are in fact two double beds, but one of them is in the living room (sofa bed) while the remaining bedroom has two twin beds. Overall it worked out and we would stay here again and recommend it as a place for friends and family visiting the area. It was our favorite place of our entire trip!

Katia's place is unique in its location on the famous trail and hikers passing by are quite envious. The cottage is utterly adorable. The amazing view lets you observe Vernazza as it wakes up in the morning, gradually fills with visitors and eventually goes to bed. As an artist, I relished the time spent with the bedroom window wide open and my watercolors in front of me. When I'd had enough of painting, I'd just stroll a few minutes into the village and enjoy that beautiful energy for a while. The cottage is well-represented in the photos. I had envisioned spending time out in the small entrance patio but I didn't because the best views are from the large bedroom window. And even though the days were hot, there was always a nice breeze coming in through the window (no screens). The Stone Cabin provides the best of two worlds- a one-of-a-kind rustic retreat combined with the gorgeous colors and sounds that are Vernazza.

Very nice place and host ! I recommend

We had a wonderful time at Laura’s place! The accommodation was perfect for our family – very clean, lovingly furnished, and we felt at home from the very first moment. Laura was incredibly helpful and friendly, always available and full of great tips about the area. Our children also felt completely at ease – the pool was definitely a highlight! We can 100% recommend staying at Laura’s and would come back anytime. Thank you for everything!

We spent two nights on the boat and enjoyed the time very much. Corrado and his whole family are very hospitable, gave us a very nice welcome with aperitif on the boat and brought a great breakfast in the morning. The best thing was the boat trip, which we also booked with Corrado! Our children and we had a great time and it was a unique experience!

Fantastic accommodation. Quiet and peaceful. Perfect with a little cooling temperature upper in the mountains.

Very romantic, beautiful, and stunning place. It's perfect for to enjoy some relaxing days, good food and amazing views! A lot of cats around!

Fabrizia is an amazing host. You feel comfortable in the house, and have a beautiful view from the bedrooms! The garden is fantastic, especially to cook comfortably and enjoy the evenings. Thank You!

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Turchetti! It’s so beautiful, the house is beautifully decorated, clean and nice! And not least, Silvia and Federico are really lovely and hospitable hosts. At the same kind both personal and professional. We also recommend to stay in and eat dinner at the fantastic restaurant- beautiful environment and really good food. The area is stunning.

A Hidden Gem in an Olive Grove – Peaceful and Perfect! The apartment was spacious, clean, nicely decorated, and had a fully equipped kitchen. A highlight was the large terrace with sea view, where we enjoyed family meals. The shared pool was great, especially for our daughter. For our baby, everything we needed was provided. The location is ideal — close to Lerici and San Terenzo. In off-season, parking was easy. Mattia was a friendly and reliable host, organizing everything smoothly from remote, with his helpful parents being around. Even when we forgot our passports when leaving, he quickly arranged to send them back to us. Highly recommended for a relaxing, comfortable retreat — we’d love to return!

We had a wonderful stay in Lerici! The accommodation was clean, cozy and perfectly located - with a fantastic view. Important to know: The access is via a very steep road. If you have a particularly sporty or low-lying vehicle, you should be careful here, otherwise you may have problems with the underbody. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The area is beautiful - with great restaurants, charming alleys and wonderful views. I'd love to come back – absolutely recommended!
