COVID-FREE home, sanitized following all necessary health protocols.

Our home is the perfect starting point for visiting Cinque Terre, as it is located not even 5 minutes away from the ‘La Spezia Centrale’ train station, where you can get on the trains for Riomaggiore and the other villages of Cinque Terre; it is also a few metres away from the city centre, where you can find supermarkets, bars, restaurants, and everything else you might need.

“La Casa di Elisa” is the upper of two apartments inside a villa built in the early 1900s, located in a safe and calm neighbourhood on the hills of La Spezia. The apartment is made up of two spacious bedrooms, with a view over the town’s rooftops, living room with sofa-bed and TV, and fully equipped kitchen and bathroom. On the back of the house there is a big terrace, furnished with table, chairs and a big beach umbrella, so that you’ll be able to enjoy your summer meals outside.

Enjoy you stay at La Casa di Elisa!

Quiet location.

Very clean and comfortable accommodations. Many steps to get to the apartment!! Be prepared to pack light. Bedding was very comfortable, especially after climbing 1000’s of steps during the day. Great location. Close to train and short walk to the ferry. We did both. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Home Far From the Maddening Crowd

We thought the location of Elisa's home was perfect - easy access to everything and away from the crowds (large even in late May). The house was clean, comfortable and welcoming. The host left information pamphlets, books and games. We had a wonderful stay and would be happy to stay again!

Amazing Stay in La Spezia!

We had the most amazing stay at La Casa di Elisa. Elisa and her mother Sylvia were incredibly friendly and helpful; they made the check in and out processes easy and smooth and gave us some wonderful recommendations. We were very comfortable and had no problems navigating this beautiful little port town.

Beautiful

We stayed at this property as a home base for a day trip to cinque terre. This was perfect in terms of location. Easy to walk around La Spezia and take in more local sites. The property was beautiful and clean. Elisa was extremely accommodating and super easy to reach. She met us at the property to greet us and show us around and answer any questions. I would absolutely recommend this property.

Beautiful apartment in great location

Comfortable, quiet, good facilities, great character. Loved getting to know La Spezia - markets, churches, museum, boats, friendly people. Lovely caring hosts who went out of their way to help. Thank you. Loved the quieter Bay of Poets after the overcrowded cinque Terre.

Beautiful spot. So many stairs.

The apartment is beautiful with hardwood floors, a dine-in kitchen, and a stunning view of town. That view comes at a cost of 82 stairs from the front gate to the front door. There are 260 stairs from the train station. Don't skip leg day.

The apartment is just stunning with beautiful views of the city. Lots of good information in the tip book that was provided. Great time in Cinque Terre and easy access to the train station and downtown area by foot. There are a fair number of stairs to get to the apartment but I wouldn’t let that deter you unless you are physically challenged otherwise the climb is so worth it. You won’t be disappointed if you stay here.

Bright and Spacious - worth the climb !

Four “60 something “ adults spent 3 wonderful nights at Casa di Elisa. It was bright , spacious and clean with all the necessary amenities, yet still you could sense a loving family history. We were able to cook our meals in the fully stocked kitchen and dine al fresco on the patio. We made fresh lemonade from the lemons Elisa had picked off the tree in the yard! The view out the bedroom windows with the sound of the church bells ringing was memorable . We walked the Cinque Terre trail for two days and the experience and views were spectacular. Walking up the many stairs from the train station to home was challenging but manageable after a long day . It would be nice to have a wifi connection on the patio but otherwise, close to perfect . Thank you for sharing your space.

Beautiful apartment! Perfect place to explore the area!

WOW! What a beautiful apartment. Our family of 5 (3 teens) were all comfortable. The views were amazing from the bedrooms! You can tell they love this apartment and keep it in such beautiful condition. The apartment had all that we needed and more. There are many stairs as this apartment is up on the hill. The views make all of the exercise worth it! We were close (10 minute walk) to the train station for all of our Cinque Terre adventures. ** Be SURE to get a train schedule at the train station and hold onto it. It was a lifesaver when we were in each of the 5 cities. We knew when to head to the station to avoid wasting precious holiday time. By recommendation of our lovely hostess, we also explored Porto Venere (via taxi there and water taxi on the way back). WORTH GOING! We loved it and wish we had time to go over to the little natural island to explore more. We were also 5-10 minute walk to the city center where there are MANY restaurants. Our hostess has a book in the foyer with many recommendations. We didn't find a grocery store nearby, but we did find a Coop about 15 minutes (walking) away to get food for breakfast, etc. I would plan to park and leave your car the whole time you are in the area. You can buy a train pass good for several days online. Overall, we loved this apartment and hope that some day we can come back to visit the area!

Au delà de nos attentes!

L’appartement est magnifique, très propre, bien équipé avec tout ce dont on a besoin. L’emplacement est optimal pour aller au train, l’épicerie, le centre, le bord de l’eau. La seule chose que je n’ai pas perçu dans l’annonce, est le nombre de marches pour monter à l’appartement. Bien que ce n’était pas problématique pour nous, c’est à considérer pour ceux qui sont moins bien équipé pour grimper, si vous avez des valises lourdes ou des poussettes.

This apartment was the perfect break from hotels on our Italy trip. After long days of sightseeing activities (and a trek up the stairs), I always looked forward to the relaxing atmosphere and wonderful air conditioning.

Prenons de la hauteur à la Spezia

Très proche du centre ville, les quelques 220 marches qui nous mènent au gîte depuis la gare nous séparent du tumulte de la Spezia. Logement classe et très propre, sa climatisation est la bienvenue. L'accueil a été très bien et c'est avec plaisir que nous reviendrons chez Sylvia. Superbe point de départ vers les 5 terres en train ou en bâteau. Nous recommandons le lieu !
