Renata Holiday Home - Holidays & Tourism in La Spezia - Ampio giardino esterno

Apartment completely renovated in June 2014. 80 square meters plus a garden outside.

Located in a residential area, the apartment is on the ground floor and is fully accessible without the need for elevators. The car park is just 50 m away from the property, in a secure gate, locked overnight . This property offers the possibility of a holiday in a quiet area, a short drive from the Cinque Terre.

The full kitchen, living room, TV, internet access and a private garden are among the amenities available in this property. The garden, in particular, is ideal to have meals (breakfast, lunch or dinner) outdoors.

The bedrooms, both very spacious, are two triple rooms, with a double bed and a single bed each. Ideal for a family with children.

The living room is also equipped with a double sofa bed, extending the maximum capacity of the apartment to 8 guests.

Just 900 m from the train station (10 minutes on foot) and boarding boats to the islands and to Portofino, Portovenere and Genoa Aquarium. Structure near restaurants with typical Ligurian focaccia and fish very good and fresh. On the outskirts of La Spezia, the historic center is within walking distance. A few miles from the sea. Portovenere and Lerici can be reached using the comfortable boat service that leaves from the city center.

To reach the apartment and travel in the area, given the great proximity to the station and public transport, it is not necessary to use a private car.

Great experience
Our family really enjoyed this property in Le Spezia. We arrived really late on a train, yet Renata (our host) arranged her colleagues to meet us and acquaint us with the property. The patio was lovely to eat breakfast on and there was plenty of space for our family of six. Renata was even kind enough to stock our fridge with a few food items for breakfast! This location worked very well for us to do a day trip in Cinque Terra and we would definitely recommend it.

The best house in La Spezia
The host made us feel so welcome and comfortable in her house, the rooms and facilities were more than comfortable. Advice from Renata made travel and sight seeing along the Cinque Terre and Port Venere so enjoyable with lunch recommendations and detailed transport options. We would highly recommend this accomodation to anyone and hope you are lucky enough to get a successful booking

Great house with the best host ever
We chose this place based on reviews of Renata as well as the location. As others have said she is great. The house was comfy and clean and a short bus ride to the train or downtown. It’s about 20 minutes walk to the train. Everything we needed for the stay was provided. Renata is amazing. She picked us up at the train, made a reservation at a neighborhood restaurant and helped us figure out how to tour thr 5 towns. She drove us to Port Venere and told us all about the area. She helped us find the right boat to go from there to one of the 5 towns. She also took us to the train when we departed. Our stay in La Spezia was wonderful thanks to Renata

Fantastica
From the moment you meet Renata your host you will feel like she is your family. She has a beautiful heart soul and personality. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and it’s so many extra things you would not normally expect a host to do. My friend is very tall and was so absolutely in love with the extra long bathtub. Her adorable apartment was clean and quiet. We were close to transportation within walking distance but she also made herself available when she could. Don’t worry if you can’t speak Italian she is amazing with Google Translate. She told us that whoever comes to stay with her they become her family and she means that from the heart. It is a great place to explore the Cinque Terre.

Ten stars for Renata!
Renata was a great host! She is very giving and caring, treating us like family, and she went out of her way to make sure we had a wonderful vacation! First, she picked us up at the train station. What a blessing that was because we were exhausted from our trip! Then, she took us to the grocery store to get what we needed. She speaks a little English, and I speak and can understand a little Italian (and my friend speaks Spanish), so we were able to communicate fairly well. She was available if we had any needs or concerns. She recommended restaurants and made reservations for us, she called the taxi for us when we asked, and she even took us to Portovenere one day! The apartment was perfect for two couples, and it was equipped with everything we needed. Our bed was uncomfortable, but there were several sleeping options, so we were fine.

Perfect
We traveled here by train from Rome and from the start everything was wonderful. Renatta, our host met us at the station. She is a truly beautiful soul. The entire Cinque Terre region is absolutely stunning. Porto Venere also a must see. We traveled there by ferry from the port in La Spezia, although Renatta offered to take us with her. She is truly amazing and her place is a perfect place to relax after a long day. The court yard is private and surrounded by beautiful lemon trees. The beauty of Cinque Terre is only matched by the kindness of Renatta. She makes you feel like you're home with an old friend. Will definitely return on our next trip to Italy. Renatta, you made me wish I could speak Italian. I will work on that for my next visit, so we can have a long conversation. Thank you for a beautiful time. Sirina and Stan.

Unexpected but still good
From the online photos we thought this property was in a more rural setting. It could definitely be that we did not read it thoroughly but I am a seasoned VRBO traveler and host and our arrival surprised us. The location is in a busy neighborhood through which you need to navigate and, with no way to get through the street after dropping off or picking up luggage, you need to back up in a narrow and auto-filled lane and the car park is pretty far down. That said, Renata was extremely helpful and friendly. She lives in the same building and loves hosting her guests. With two baths and two bedrooms, my friend and I could spread out a bit and with a kitchen and washer, our stay was mostly comfortable. We were thankful that we brought our own pillows and small down cover, but the beds could use better mattresses Everything worked well and walking to the grocery and nearby restaurants allowed us to feel a part of the community.

The best host!
Stayed here for 3 nights as a base to explore Cinque Terre. Renata is the owner and she lives alone upstairs from the apartment. She is so lovely and is really the reason to book this apartment. We communicated with Whatsapp. She does well using google translate. She does speak enough English as well. She picked us up from the train and also took us back to the train when we left. We are a family of 4 with 2 adult daughters. The first day she drive us to Porto Venere and we hiked (9 miles) to Riomaggiore. It is a beautiful and very strenuous hike. We took the train back to La Spezia. The apartment is clean, pretty small but has everything. There is a small washing machine and a rack to hang clothes. Kitchen was very clean. Has all the basic stuff. We were able to cook as needed. There is a grocery store about an 8 minute walk away. I also noticed a pharmacy close by. It is about a mile along a busy road to the train. I think she would have been happy to drive us anywhere. The train is about 8 minutes to Cinque Terre. Of note this is not really in a touristy area and La Spezia is not all that nice. It was much cheaper than staying in Cinque Terre though. This apartment is an excellent value.

Great stay in la Spezia!!
We had an amazing stay at Renata’s place! She was an incredible host! Renata picked us up at the train station as well as dropped us off. Gave us a quick tour of La Spezia and took us to a small town for a swim and some amazing sites. Her home was well equipped, clean and in a good location. Thanks again for allowing us to use your home and I hope you will visit us in the US soon!!

Fabulous Find!
First, Renata, is the best host! Answered all questions quickly. Met us when we arrived. Walked us through the apartment, explained what was available, how to manage rubbish and let us use her private parking. She is a lovely person who welcomed us into her home. LaSpezia is a beautiful town. Toward the docks, there is a great farmers market ( Market Square), all sorts of restaurants and cafes. We drove to Porto Venere, which was a great drive, wonderful restaurants and beautiful views. The apartment is lovely. Size and configuration was perfect. When we left, my husband & I both said, we could have stayed a week! Renata's house is the perfect base camp to then explore the Cinque Terre and surrounding area, and with Renata as the host, Perfecto!
