Hey from Silvia

Member since May 2024 | 3,222 hits

To welcome you into my house it will be me, Silvia.

Opening my B&B is the realization of a project that lasted a couple of years, but imagined for much longer.

I have been in the tourism industry for a long time and I have worked in luxury hotels in Italy and abroad. I am passionate about foreign languages and travels, and the decision to host in my house travelers from around the world came almost as a natural consequence.

I will do my best to ensure that my Guests have a memorable stay, both those who will be just passing through as well as those who will want to come and get to know a little more our beautiful region, Liguria.

Area hills

Our B&B is a few minutes drive from the sea, from the center of Riva Trigoso and the center of Sestri Levante, with its caruggi, shops, bars and restaurants.
Being close to the train station and the highway, it is a good starting point to explore the coastal area that goes from the beautiful Cinque Terre to the famous Portofino, the city of Genoa with its ''vicoli'' -alleys- of the historic center and its unique Aquarium, as well as the inland area.
In addition, for trekking and mountain bike enthusiasts, the area offers many hiking trails (some of which reachable directly from the B&B) such as Punta Baffe, Monte Moneglia, Monte Comunaglia, Punta Manara, Sant'Anna. And then the paths of the Cinque Terre, Santa Margherita Ligure, Portofino, San Fruttuoso.

What guests say

Reviews consistently praise the property for its modernity, cleanliness, and outstanding panoramic location on the hillside above Sestri Levante. Guests highlight the tranquility, spectacular sea views, and the welcoming atmosphere created by hosts Silvia and Andrea, who are noted for their attentive and helpful approach, including local tips and flexibility with breakfast. Rooms are comfortable, well-equipped, and stylish, though a few guests mention soundproofing could be improved. The generous breakfast, often enjoyed on a terrace with a breathtaking view, and the presence of amenities like a hot tub or pool are appreciated. The property is suitable both for relaxing stays and as a base for discovering the surroundings. A car is recommended.

alexandra

Little jewel in Liguria, owned by a super-nice couple who made our stay so wonderful! We loved our relaxing stay at the beautiful Lo Zefiro B&B very much and would love to come back to discover once more the lovely area of Sestri Levante and enjoy the delicious breakfast with the stunning view from the terrace of the beautiful house. All the best to the lovely owners of Lo Zefiro and greetings from Munich (we already miss it)!

claudio

We had an unforgettable stay at this B&B nestled in the hills: a 10 out of 10 welcome! The owners Silvia and Andrea were incredibly kind and helpful, making us feel at home from the very first moment. The landscape is simply dreamlike with views of Riva Trigoso and Sestri Levante. The view from the hill is relaxing and rejuvenating. In five minutes you reach the beach with clear and crystal clear water. The rooms are new, tastefully furnished, and equipped with all technological comforts. The breakfast is fresh and abundant. Highly recommended for those seeking tranquility, beauty, and authentic hospitality. We will definitely return.

federico

A heartfelt thank you to Silvia for making our (short) stay something unforgettable, starting from the structure and everything that revolves around it: comfortable, spotless rooms equipped with the latest technologies, stunning views of Moneglia and Sestri Levante that are worth the price of the room alone. Moreover, a remarkable welcome that made us feel at home right away; Silvia was very kind and willing to accommodate all our needs from the first contact. The breakfast, served outdoors with a sea view, was the perfect conclusion to our stay. Everything is highly recommended, especially for those who love nature and tranquility just a few minutes from the beautiful Ligurian sea. We hope to return as soon as possible!

Federico, che dire se non 'Grazie'! Grazie a voi di averci scelto e di essere stati una compagnia veramente piacevole! Tornate a trovarci quando volete! Un saluto a tutto il gruppo! Silvia

lorett

Silvia and Andrea are excellent hosts, you feel like you are among friends. For breakfast, all preferences and wishes can be expressed, including any intolerances. The view during breakfast over the gentle hills and the sea was pure vacation feeling. The accommodation is only accessible by car, but this guarantees heavenly peace. Every kind of wish or need is attempted to be met. Silvia also gives tips for excursions or hikes. The accommodation is highly recommended - thank you for a relaxing stay.

Dear Lorett, Thank you very much for your review! It was a pleasure to have you and your family at our house and we are glad you enjoyed your stay and felt really welcome. We hope to welcome you back in your next visit to Liguria! Silvia and Andrea

valentina

The structure is very beautiful and well maintained. Silvia is a kind and helpful host. The rooms are very clean, small but they have everything essential. The only drawback is the noise because the rooms are poorly soundproofed. You can hear both the noises from the adjacent kitchen where the owner prepares breakfast, and the noises from those living above.

stayed from 11/01/2024 to 11/02/2024

The answer from the host:
Buongiorno Valentina, Ci fa veramente piacere leggere valutazioni positive sul nostro b&b. Grazie mille per il feedback, anche riguardo ad eventuali rumori che possono sentirsi dalla camera. È una cosa a cui prestiamo sempre molta attenzione e ci dispiace se avete avuto qualche fastidio. Teniamo molto alla tranquillità dei nostri ospiti, per cui l'attenzione che metteremo adesso sarà anche di più. Arrivederci a presto speriamo! Silvia

New structure with comfortable rooms and bathrooms located in a strategic position to visit the beautiful locations in the area. Suitable also for a relaxing stay due to its proximity to the sea and to enjoy the spectacular views and sunsets over the bays of Sestri Levante and Riva Trigoso. Excellent breakfast.

Our stay at this B&B was absolutely flawless. From the moment we booked, the host was incredibly helpful and kind, offering assistance even before we arrived. They went above and beyond to help us plan our daily trips, providing valuable tips on navigating the region, whether by car or public transport. They struck the perfect balance of being available when we needed advice and giving us privacy when we wanted peace. A solid 10/10 across the board.

martina

We stayed at the Lo Zefiro property, unfortunately only for one night. The view from our room was wonderful! The room was very spacious, well air-conditioned, and with a well-stocked minibar. There's the possibility to use the whirlpool tub in the garden, enjoying the view. The location is quite central, about 7 minutes from the center of Sestri, but it's definitely worth it. Silvia was very kind. We will definitely come back.

The answer from the host:
Grazie mille Martina per il tempo dedicatoci per lasciare questa bella recensione. Sono contenta che siate stati bene e che vi siate goduti la nostra bella vista sul mare e su Sestri. Saremo felici se vorrete tornare a trovarci! Un saluto, Silvia

rossana

We stayed, unfortunately, only one night at B&B Lo Zefiro, the location is lovely on the hill in the green with a beautiful panorama and sea view (which we enjoyed from the available Jacuzzi in the property) and 5 minutes from Sestri Ligure. The Deluxe room is brand new and equipped with every comfort and the breakfast is excellent. The owners are very kind, so I highly recommend this property.

Gentilissima Rossana, Grazie per la vostra recensione. È stato un piacere avervi nostri ospiti e sarà un piacere se vorrete tornare! A presto, Silvia

elisa

We spent one night at the Bed and Breakfast Lo Zefiro and I can say it was a pleasant discovery. It is located on a hill and enjoys a spectacular panoramic view over the beaches of Sestri Levante, while being just a few minutes' drive from the sea and in a strategic position if you want to visit the Cinque Terre. Our room was comfortable, modern, and functional, with a very comfortable bed and very particular design elements. Outside, we tried a comfortable whirlpool bath surrounded by a meticulously cared-for garden. The owners are friendly and attentive to the guests' needs. Thank you for everything Silvia, we had a good time and hope to come back soon.

The 'Lo Zefiro' structure is brand new on the hill of Riva Trigoso, just a few minutes from Sestri Levante. A stunning panorama can be admired from the room. The room is furnished with details that make a difference and are rarely found. The managers Silvia and Andrea were excellent, very helpful and friendly, attentive to all our requests, even thinking about dinner reservations. Enchanting place... we will be back soon.

giulia

A new structure on the hill of Sestri, a few minutes from the center. A stunning panorama that allows you to fully enjoy the location. The managers were precise and attentive. The structure has access devices via QR code that facilitate guests and free them from having keys or codes to remember. All information was pre-announced via email and gently explained upon our arrival. Maximum availability of the owners who did not let us miss anything. Small details inside the room made our stay even more enjoyable.
