My son and I stumbled upon this hotel during a recent visit to cinque terre. What a find! Modern, minimalist, wonderfully accommodating hosts. Antonella is a sweetheart, so helpful, friendly, and willing to share her tips for the area. Her restaurant suggestion was fabulous, and we had a delicious dinner that we will not soon forget. Comfortable beds, wonderful views,... More

Il Saraceno is a small B&B in Volastra, high above Manarola in the CInque Terre. The room was lovely with an excellent bathroom. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was perfect before we started out in the morning. What a view from Volastra bus stop down to the sea! Vineyards everywhere, terraced down the hills. The bus is a... More

Antonella was a great hostess that helped with directions and hints for our walks to Corniglia and Manorola. Hotel has only 5 rooms and is very quiet.

This is a little place (4-5 rooms) but with a very big heart and incredible hospitality by it's owner, Antonella. It is located above Cinque Terre but local transportation goes up and the down the road many times daily thus eliminating your need to park in Cinque Terre which can be expensive if you don't know where to look. Antonella's... More

This was a lovely place to stay. Antonella was warm and friendly and very helpful. As there was no restaurant in Volastra serving dinner, we bought our dinner at the local take-away, and ate it in the hotel restaurant. This was good, home cooked food and much appreciated. Il Saraceno is modern, and our room and bathroom were clean and... More

Il Saraceno is an excellent little bed and breakfast located just above the Cinque Terre. We received a warm welcome upon arrival, and nothing but excellent hospitality for the duration of our stay. Our room was quite large with it's own bathroom. It and the entire property were spotless. Antonella is a very friendly hostess who is willing to share... More

There is nothing much here except a restaurant, road ans bus stop which is what we wanted. This hotel was great service, good rooms with free fast wifi and outdoor terrace for chilling in the sun .

We had not expected Cinque Terre to be so crowded and only reserved a room in Volastra because nothing was available on the coast. What a find! We drove right up to the hotel - something you cannot do at many 5T lodgings - and into their underground parking. Parking is another problem at many hotels in the 5 villages.... More
