Our family of 2 adults and 2 children (ages 12 and 10) had a wonderful stay at A Casa Di Gaia. Dino was a wonderful host and provided excellent recommendations for restaurants and activities in the area. It was a wonderful location, requires access by car, with beautiful views and spacious property. We would love to come back and enjoy the boat ride as the weather unfortunately did not allow this trip. The accommodation was exactly as shown and was spotless. Great place to stay to enjoy a day trip to Cinque Terre. Would highly recommend.
