We stayed in apartment C1 on top of the hill in the lemon garden. Federico and his family were very accommodating, picking us up from and driving us back to the train station by the sea. The apartment was clean, large, and had a breathtaking view. The hike, however, is not for the faint of heart... But the walk was... More

We'd planned to stay 3 nights and ended up begging for an extra. This home overlooking Monterosso has the most spectacular view of anywhere I've ever stayed. Ever. It has a private patio, garden filled with lemon and orange trees, and a full kitchen if you want to eat in. Monterosso itself is absolutely charming, my favorite village in Cinque... More

We stayed in the B&B Ulivo attic apartment for one week in September and it was fantastic! The apartment sits on top of a hill, so there are a lot of steps to get there, but we kind of liked that it wasn't on the main strip - and the views from the windows and balcony were amazing! Who are... More

We stayed with Laura and Frederico for 4 nights at the end of September in the attic flat in their house. As other guests have said, the ceilings are low in parts but we coped (just a couple of bumped heads!) We had a lovely stay. They are a lovely couple and picked us up and dropped us off at... More

We stayed in the apartment on Via Genova and it was beautifully renovated and immaculate. Federico's mother (adorable woman) greeted us and gave us a tour. The best thing about the apartment was that it provided a less touristy, more local experience. While the lodging was superb, the best thing about our experience with Federico was the service. After a... More

My sister and I stayed here for 6 nights after spending 3weeks in Turkey . We were picked up by Federico from the train station late at night . What a great spot waking every morning to the view across the villages. We found the path a bit steep coming up in the heat but the local buses stopped right... More

We stayed in Frederico's little house in the hills for 4 days and loved every single minute. It was our favourite place over a 2 week holiday. The view over the town is fantastic from the extremely large terrace leading on the from the bedroom. What could be better!! The walk into town takes about 10 mins down hill but... More

I stayed in Frederico's attic room for several days in April. It was such a lovely space, but not for tall people or people who object to lots of steps to get home (I believe we counted a couple hundred). The terrace was perfect. I did find it a bit weird to be staying in someone's house, however.

We stopped here on our honeymoon. We planned at the last minute (only a few weeks before), so there were no more rooms at the B&B. Frederico suggested that we stay in the attic apartment in his family's home. It was perfect!! So romantic and peaceful. Beautiful views. Skylights for lots of light and breezes. Adorable terrace- which was the... More
