Vacation rentals in Bonassola

“Our stay in Bonassola at Marco’s was absolutely amazing. We are on a 2 month journey through Europe, and we feel so blessed in having such a wonderful and gracious host! We usually walk from the train station tomorrow our accommodation trying to navigate a completely new area, but Marco met us at the train station to personally guide us to his place, which is just a short walk from the train station, and 2 minutes to one of the most beautiful beaches that we have ever seen. We did take the train to Cinque Terre, and after spending the day there, we concluded Bonassola was much nicer and much less crowded. If you want a great place to stay, a beautiful beach, and a small Italian community that’s not overcrowded with tourists, then Marco’s place is highly recommended. In addition, Marco had the fridge in the room stocked with drinks, provided breakfast, and also provided a beach umbrella and towels - what more can you ask for! The location was fantastic - close to hiking trails in the mountains, beach, and super nice places for an aperitif and then dinner. We did not want to leave! We give Marco’s place our highest recommendation without hesitation. We will definitively be back, and we would not want to stay anywhere else.”

“The four of us arrived at Bonassola station after a long journey to be greeted by Paolo. We walked throough the village with heavy bags helped by Paolo up a narrow spiralling road to our third floor appartment sitting on a hillside approached by 39 steps. This was quite an effort by silver surfers and we would have preferred transport. Any negative thoughts were dispelled by the accommodation which was excellent with a very large lounge/diner/kitchen and three bedrooms. Our breath was taken away by the spectacular view from the balcony of the village and beach below! We spent several evenings admiring fabulous sunsets. Paolo gave us a rundown on the area and waste disposal-much of which we forgot, so it would be helpful to have a folder of basic information. All in all an excellent stay. We did however take a taxi when we left.”

“We selected Il Paradiso sul Mare based upon the beautiful photos and location. It was even better than we expected. The home was beautifully decorated with outstanding views of the Mediterranean. Her homemade dessert wine and cookies were a sweet and unexpected treat. We felt taken care of and the amenities were incredible. The grounds were beautiful, peaceful, and we were treated to a spectacular firework show over the cove when we unexpectedly arrived during an annual festival in Bonassola. We would highly recommend staying in this elegant home.”
