Best Place to Stay in Corniglia!
What a fabulous location! From your terrace you have an outstanding view of the Ligurian Sea and the next village of Manarola. The moon reflecting on the sea was just so peaceful. You are a 10 minute walk to the train station and a 10 minute walk (up) to the village. We visited all of the villages while we were there and Corniglia clearly had the least commercial/touristy atmosphere while still having nice places to eat and shop. The VRBO had a great location but also a secluded feel to it, tucked into the hillside. We were greeted upon our arrival and were shown around the house. Our stay was comfortable and so relaxing.

Great location
Location was fantastic. It's about half way up the steps with the entry gate to the property on the trail. The house sits back off the trail so it's still quiet and secluded. The property is spacious and comfortable. Out host met us with some wine and home grown lemons. The views from the balcony are fantastic. This place is a great location to have as your base as you enjoy Cinque Terre. Will definately stay here again

Excellent location and view from patio
We really enjoyed this property with great views and easy access to the train. It is situated one third of the way up the stairs from the station to Cornigula. A reasonable walk up the hill to Margareta's store for fresh food supplies. The kitchen was well supplied and there was lots of space for us and two adult children. Thanks to Christian who made it easy for all of us to stay there. We would highly recommend it.
We stayed four days and could not be happier! The location was perfect and we are so glad we stayed in Corniglia. From the train station you can take the pedestrian path and it is about halfway up the steps. Other option is to take the bus and have the driver let you off at the pharmacy. We did that option as we did have a small carry on each and there are a ton of stairs. The very nice owner let us drop our bags while the house was being cleaned as we arrived early in the morning. She then came and found us in Corniglia when we could check in.
The view is amazing! Wide open, gorgeous and quiet and private despite people going up and down the stairs all day. The train tracks are below but are not an issue when sitting outside or sleeping. You can hear the train while outside but for us, we didn’t find it to be a big deal (and certainly not a distraction) and I only heard it a little from inside on a rare occasion.
The home has everything you need from a large fridge and freezer, comfy bed, blow dryer and iron.
I loved the foot path to and from the gate as there was a lemon tree and lots of great flowers, cactus and trees.
We had several great meals in town to include the best hamburger ever at Bar Nunzia and amazing food at La Laterena. I also highly recommend the wine bar as they have delicious tapas!
We loved sipping wine out on the patio. The owner has gotten different outdoor patio furniture than what is shown in the photos and it was very comfortable and a great place to relax.
We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful stay - incredible view
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Paradise in the Blue. The property is the second floor of a house that is located 1/3 of the way up the Lardinia (stairway with 386 steps from the train station in Corniglia to the village). The views from the deck of the Ligurian Sea and Manarola are magnificent. Our hosts we very welcoming with water and a chilled bottle of wine ready for us on our arrival. The property had all the amenities our family needed - and we thoroughly enjoyed a few days in the Cinque Terre.

Beautiful Location
My wife and family stayed here for 2 nights in June and loved it. Corniglia is perched up very high which has it's challenges when it comes to getting to the property (many, many steps) but this also affords you an incredible view. There is a large terrace that we spent the evenings on because the view was unreal. I would stay here again for sure.

Only superlatives can describe this property - and the family that rents it. They extended every courtesy while we were there, and there is not one moment of the day or night that the setting is not breathtaking. We ate in more than expected because the shops in town are so good, and because the table on the terrace was so inviting. Our only regret is not staying longer.

Peaceful Oasis
This property has an incredible view and all the amenities. The owners were welcoming and accommodating. They even left us a bottle of wine! The property also includes a vineyard, lemon trees and a multitude of beautiful flowers. Plus, in my opinion, Corniglia is the best of the Cinque Terre towns. It is worth the 365 steps to experience such beauty and peacefulness.
