About this property

A typical Ligurian house in MANAROLA with roof terrace, sea views and AC.

  • Casa Bella Vista is a typical Ligurian House with stunning sea views. The village of Manarola is situated within the unique landscape of the Cinque Terre National Park. The property has been renovated to a high standard and includes Wi-Fi. The accommodation is provided over four floors with the additional benefit of a roof terrace. The ground floor entrance leads to a living and dining area with seating for 6, with a fully equipped kitchen on the 3rd floor. A spiral staircase provides access to the roof terrace for outdoor dining and casual seating. Bathrooms are situated on the 1st and 2nd floor, and each include a shower, toilet and bidet. The bedroom on the 1st floor has two single beds, the bedroom on the 2nd floor has a king sized bed. A double sofa-bed is situated on the 3rd floor. There is a steep open tread wooden staircase between floors, which might not be suitable for the very young or people with mobility issues.

    The property is a five minute walk up a steep hill from the centre of the village, but is rewarded by sea views from each floor and the roof terrace.

    Getting to Manarola: The most convenient airports for the Cinque Terre are Pisa, Genova (Genoa), and Parma. Travel from the airport to Manarola is best by train, as vehicles are not permitted in the village, however public pay parking is available at the top of the village, euro 20 per day. Alternatively, it is possible to arrange in advance a private garage space at an additional cost of euro 25 per night.

    Local facilities : Manarola has several excellent restaurants and bars, two pizzerias, a gelateria, juice bar and a cash machine. As a working village, it also has two small supermarkets, a pharmacy, Post Office and a selection of shops selling locally made gifts and produce.

    Out and about: The best way to discover the Cinque Terre is on foot, along the many paths through terraced vineyards and olive groves giving spectacular views of the sea. The five villages of the Cinque Terre, Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza, and Monterosso each have their own unique identity, and a wealth of history to explore.

    Further afield, La Spezia is the largest town in the area, and is reached easily by a 10 minute train journey. Portofino and Portovenere are also good destinations.

Should be noted that there are 4 sets of stairs - the last one being a spiral wrought iron one. No washroom on main floor and the actual kitchen is on the 4th floor so not good for anyone with mobility issues or small children. Rooftop view is amazing.

This is THE best place to stay in Manarola. Yes there are stairs and yes low ceilings. However. I’m 6’2” and 62 years old and would stay here again in a minute. We enjoyed pizza and sunset on the rooftop terrace and the ease of access to the town. No steps all the way from parking to the villa (you will appreciate how nice this is once you arrive.) Jo was always responsive and helpful.

We loved our stay in Manarola. The rooftop deck and views were incredible, and the location was perfect for exploring Cinque Terre.One thing to know: the apartment is spread across 5 levels with steep polished wood staircases that are very slippery. Everyone in our group either slipped on the stairs or hit their head on the low ceilings at some point, nothing serious. We would not recommend this property for elderly guests, young children, tall people, anyone planning to drink heavily, or if you like to walk around in socks.That said, for the right group, it was a really memorable stay.

Casa Bella Vista is certainly true to its name. What a special and spectacular property! We stayed with our 2, 23 yo sons (both over 6’ tall) and we all agreed it was amazing. The home itself was clean and well stocked. The towels were oversized and the sheets were very comfortable. I mention the height of our sons because the inside stairs could pose a challenge for taller individuals, however they did not have any issues. The walk to the apartment is no more challenging than any walk in Cinqueterre (less, actually) so was to be expected. The uniqueness of the home really made it a pleasurable stay! It truly felt like ‘home’. And…the rooftop view truly makes this property worth every penny.
The downstairs kitchen - so unique and fun!
View from the first bedroom.
Another sunset!
Rooftop sunset - incomparable!

Jo was very responsive and the photos in the listing are accurate. We have been to Manarola previously and were very pleasantly surprised with the walk up to the property. No steps, rather a well paved walkway to pull up suitcases. It is still uphill, but much easier than the steep stairs. Plus, the view walking up and when reaching the sea is worth every step.

Gorgeous Spot

We had a great time sitting on the rooftop deck enjoying the view! We couldn’t ask for a better one. The beds were comfortable and the dishwasher and washer/dryer were great to have. The stairs are a bit steep for those that might have trouble. We would definitely come back!

What an amazing house and even more spectacular view.

What a cool place. It is one of the houses on the cliff over looking the water that you see in all of those iconic Manarola photos/puzzles. Lots of steps and inclines but it is so worth it. The rooftop view is breathtaking and the town is amazing. Able to get through all the towns in a day if need be but 2-3 days is a perfect amount of time. Would stay there again!

5 story property right on the water built onto the mountain. Quaint and well-located. Loved the rooftop patio - sat with a sea gull reading and enjoying the sound of the ocean waves. You could hear the ocean all night. Had everything we needed, and the property manager saved us on our checkout day when there was a railway strike, by arranging private transport.

Cinque Terre

Fantastic location. Beautiful home as advertised just like the pictures. We were able to visit and enjoy all five lands with ease from this location. Train quickly from Manarola to all five lands, or hike if you please. Restaurants, Coffee Shops, and Gelato shops throughout town. No bad views or sunsets. The rooftop deck on the home provided great views of the ocean, harbor, and sunsets. The owner Jo was an excellent communicator and made sure our stay was great. 5 Stars. If we come back to the area we would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous authentic location

The pictures simply cannot do justice to the location. The roof top view alone is worth every dollar/euro. It is a bit of an adventure with the stairways and doorways, but completely worth it for those who are fit and able. Five adults thoroughly enjoyed our time here and will come again. Manarola was our favorite of the 5 towns. We recommend “Hellocinqueterre” for the sunset boat tour. They were terrific! Many thanks to Jo and her management company.

Beautiful view, Quirky property but fabulous !

We embraced the challenges this home has with the 55 steps and many levels - as the charm and conveniences and location and views made it totally worthwhile !! The management company was wonderful to work with and convenient to pick up keys etc. our absolutely only complaint was the rooftop deck area was Soooo dirty and covered with bird droppings gs and smelled terrible so we couldn’t enjoy our time or view from there as we had hoped it was a neglected area

Beautiful location

The location of this property is outstanding. It doesn’t get better. Everything is close and the view is beautiful. However, this property had some quirks that made the stay less comfortable, such as the slouchy couches, kitchen without a few essentials (like salt), qnd leaks on the first floor (this may have been due to the very heavy rains while we visited). Also, if you have any kind of physical challenges, this property would not be ideal for you due to the narrow, steep, stairs. Manarola is a wonderful town, and we were glad to visit for a few days.
