Unbelievable location. After weeks in cities this is just the tonic we needed to refresh our souls. Drive to the train station and jump between these beautiful towns and hike between when you feel like it...or hike the lot.. get some provisions for the stay as it is a drive to shop. The best washing line view I've ever seen. The best place on the balcony to do a bit of remote work. The Cinque Terre is achingly beautiful. I felt I was living locally with the locals up there. Not polished and manicured, more rambling and rustic and authentic. Plenty of space for us parents and our adult daughter and partner. A great base for exploring this stunningly beautiful area..but if you want sterile perfect book a hotel..if you want nightlife don’t book here. My adult daughter and I walked down a little apprehensive as the grounds are not tidy but as we shrug off our strict standards and loosened up a little and got into the vibe of laid back, loosened up chill it felt really, really good.
