Very nice apartment

First of all we were welcomed so nicely - we never experienced anything like this. The apartment is very clean, well equipped and spacious. Absolutely great for a family holiday with two teenagers. Wifi worked great. Nice pool and hot tub. Approximately 30 minutes drive to the coast but therefore very calm. 100% recommendation!

Perfekt

Absolut perfekte Unterkunft für einen Aufenthalt in den ligurischen Bergen in der Nähe schöner Badeorte und den Cinque Terre. Großer Pool plus Whirlpool, geteilt mit maximal zwei anderen Wohnungen, unkomplizierte Vermieter, supersauber und gut ausgestattet. Enge Straßen, 6 kurvige Kilometer zu den nächsten (sehr sympathischen) Einkaufsgelegenheiten und 11 Kilometer zum nächsten Supermarkt inklusive. Die üblichen ostligurischen Küstenorte samt Portofino, Camoglia, Genua und dem Cinque-Terre-Orten über den 25 Autominuten entfernten Bahnhof Sestri Levante hevorrragend und bequem erreichbar. Es fahren auch Busse, der letzte aus Sestri zurück allerdings schon vor 17 Uhr. Gehobenes regionales Restaurant 5 Fußminuten entfernt (nur Wochenende)

Traumhafte Lage, sehr angenehme Vermieter

Das Objekt liegt sehr ruhig in einer wunderschönen Umgebung. Die Wohnung ist zweckmäßig ausgestattet und verfügt über alle wichtigen Dinge, um einen schönen Urlaub zu verbringen. Die eigene Terrasse bietet einen wundervollen Blick in die Landschaft, Pool und Whirlpool laden zum Entspannen ein. Von Sestri Levante aus (ca. 30 min. mit PKW zu erreichen) kann man die Umgebung sehr gut und auch günstig mit dem Zug erreichen (5Terre, Portofino, La Spezia,...), auch die Bademöglichkeiten vor Ort sind gut. Alles in allem haben wir uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt und einen wunderschönen Urlaub verbracht an den wir uns sehr gern zurück erinnern, auch wegen der sehr gastfreundlichen und netten Vermieter.

Herrlich erholsamer Urlaub auf den Bergen über Sestri Levante

Die Gastgeber Giancarla und Luciano waren sehr nett und zuvorkommend und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Ferienwohnung war schön eingerichtet und die Anlage mit Pool, Outdoor-Whirlpool und Boule-Platz haben wir fleißig genutzt. Die Terasse mit Blick auf das Meer und die Berge ist phänomenal! Einkaufen, Strand, Autobahn und Stadt sind alle ca. 15 km entfernt und innerhalb von 30 Min erreichbar. Die Gegend mit den Steilküsten und in den Hängen liegenden Städten und Dörfern ist sehr reizvoll und immer einen Ausflug wert. Zusammenfassend eine tolle Unterkunft und Gegend!

What a beautiful place to stay

This is a very clean house in a great area of Italy. We as a family of 6 (4 kids from 14 till 19 years old) had a lovely time here. especially the swimming pool, the Jacuzzi, and the whirlpool in the house were very popular. The owners are very friendly and showed a great sense of hospitality to us. We made some very nice trips to Portofino, hiking to Punta Chiappa (snorkeling), Camogli, Sanata Margherita Ligure, Sestri Levante, Varese Ligure. I highly recommend this place to stay.

Stunning location.

This villa is in a stunning location. However we feel the advertisement was not entirely accurate. This was not a 3 bedroom property it was a 2 bed property with a pull out bed in the lounge. Secondly there was no air conditioning and not one fan. The heat was unbearable especially at night. Bedding and pillows were minimal with only 4 pillows, as was kitchen utensils. There is a washing machine which was really useful to keep the towels clean etc. The pool, hot tub was lovely however no where in the advert did it state that the pool and hot tub was shared with two other villas on the property. The sun loungers were mostly broken and there was not enough for the number of residents which made it difficult. We loved the properties location but feel hospitality could be improved. There was not even a bottle of water on arrival. We had to go to the supermarket on arrival. We stayed a total of 11 nights and saw the owner possibly 3 times.

About the host

Hosted by LUCIANO PONZUOLI

Host profile image
We met and married in 1992, and our family grew with the adoption of our daughter Pushpa in India in 1999 and our son Mario in Colombia in 2004. Shortly afterwards Lilly, an affectionate mongrel dog came, she fllls us and oue guests with Kisses. In our house of Velva we cultivate the vegetable garden and we take care of the garden, we enjoy the quiet country life and, after years of working in the office, we consider tourist hospitality not only our new bussines but our passion

Why they chose this property

At the "festival of minestrone" our friend Mary Rose, made us discover Velva with its medieval village and its authentic inhabitants: we were fascinated. In a small house we spent a few summers in freedom and quietness with our children Pushpa and Mario. We put down roots by buying agricultural rustic, renovated with passion, even to share many pleasures and comforts that offers with our guests.
Even today we get exited for the sunsets over Ligurian Sea, our guest called them "touching"

What makes this property unique

in addition to our desserts,our welcome includes the tourist information on the surrounding area.
You could taste our garden produces and our preserves and have directions to buy typical products (oil, wine, ..) and organic food (cheese and honey of Vara Downhill).
