About this property

Villa with sea wiew, spa, air conditioning, elevator

Our villa is set between hills and sea and overlooks the small town of Cavi di Lavagna, where you can find bars, restaurants and shops. Along the coastline, at a few kilometres of distance between them, lie several small towns where the local seafood and natural products of the lush inland are served in the restaurant. Because of the privileged position of our villa, you can reach many interesting places in a short time. In the West, a gorgeous scenic road leads to Portofino, worldwide famous for its setting, its steep cliff high up above the sea. In the Mount of Portofino it’s worth visiting the beautiful San Fruttuoso - that can be reached by boat or trekking on its many paths - its medieval abbey and marine sanctuary, where you can go snorkelling and scuba diving.A few kilometers away, you’ll reach the enchanting Camogli, with its small fishing village, and Recco, internationally known for its “focaccia al formaggio”, a kind of cheese pie. A 30 kilometers you’ll find Genoa – its squares, churches, aquarium and old docks, il “Porto Antico”, are worth a visit as well as the little train that from Casella climbs on the mountain slopes of Appennino Ligure among scenic views. In the East, Sestri Levante will greet you with its charming “Baia del Silenzio”, a secluded bay. Cinque Terre are five villages high up above the sea, linked by footpaths, that can be reached also by train. You can cover the distance between them on foot, taking in the enchantment of every single village. Other places to see in the same area are Lerici and Portovenere.At 120 kilometers from our place li

Wonderful holiday!

My family have just enjoyed a wonderful 2 weeks holiday in this beautiful villa. Vincenzo and his family were very welcoming, always on hand and helping us whenever needed. The villa has a vista you will never tire of. I certainly would not hesitate to recommend this gorgeous home.

A beautiful gem

The villa is beautiful, has lots of features that you wouldn't expect. Has a lift to take you to bedrooms, as my son said, it feels posh. Also a fridge that makes ice by itself :)) (we don't need ice in England, so it was a surprise, something that we used a lot. Decorated with a good sense of style. Very clean and well maintained. Jacuzzi is the pick of the villa, where you can relax and enjoy the views. Vincenzo always makes sure you don't have any problems and helps a lot. Cinque Terre is a must to see. Thank you for a lovely holiday!

Almost perfect

The house is comfortable and beautiful and Vincenzo is the perfect host. He is always around to solve problems (e.g.parking tickets!) - available but never intrusive. He organized a cooking workshop for us, which was an absolute highlight. One thing to bear in mind,however, is that it would not be easy to stay there and explore the beautiful surroundings without a car. Otherwise, full marks for a wonderful holiday - in our case for a family reunion! Margaret & Bob from Berlin Endorsed by Ann from England and Eddie and family from New York

Lovely!

Lots of space, great views, very well equipped. Vincenzo lives in the flat downstairs and was very friendly and helpful to us throughout our stay. We were only two people but it would be a great house for a large group.

Heaven on Earth

Villa Stagnaro was perfect for our group of six adults with rental cars. Vincenzo is a great host and the location was ideal for our explorations of the local area. We had several great barbecue dinners followed by a soak in the hot tub. Looking forward to returning again.

Excellent property and very helpful host.

Lovely views from an elevated position and well laid out. All of the facilities worked as described and anything that required attention was resolved immediately by Vincenzo. The accommodation worked well for 4 couples. The walk into the local village isn't as long as shown on G Maps, there are a set of steps into the village that make the walk far shorter.

Great place to stay!

We really appreciated our stay in Vincenzo's house. We were 2 couples with 3 children, and the house is really functional and big enough. The view is gorgeous from everywhere: terrace, living room, bedrooms. We appreciated barbecuing on the terrace when night falls, with the jacuzzi.. Additionnaly, I would like to thank Vincenzo, who was very kind with us, and available for each question or request we had. It was a pleasure to deal with him, and I strongly recommend this place for a nice stay! Pierre

A beautiful villa in a lovely location

The villa was at least as lovely as it looks in the photos. Vincent was a wonderfully welcoming host, always friendly and helpful, even when we arrived at 2 am! The villa is beautiful with lovely light spacious rooms and amazing views from the big windows. The weather was perfect for us in May and we found the local area not too busy with tourists as it might be in peak season. We had days out in Portofino (1 hour away) and a boat trip to the Cinque Terre but to be honest the villa was so lovely we were happy to just stay home and relax! There are three restaurants within walking distance in the village of Cavi and many more in Sestri Levante which is only 5 minutes drive away. A wonderful location for a holiday.

Superbe propriété très agréable à vivre.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans une maison très bien aménagée, une vue superbe sur la mer où il fait bon se reposer après nos balades dans les cinqs terres. Un propriétaire souriant et très agréable qui fait le maximum pour rendre notre séjour le plus agréable possible (conseils sur les balades, les visites, les restaurants) Bref rien à redire tout était parfait. A fortement conseiller.

Super Holiday with "THE VIEW"

We had a very nice vacation at Villa Giomi. For two families the house was a perfect setting for a week holiday. Good space, a view to kill for and all necessities within walking distance – just down the stairs. The near by town Sestri Levante is a small typical vacation town without all the foreign tourists – perfect. The owner Vincenzo was very helpful when we had questions and showed a genuine interest in us having a super holiday. We would definitely go back. July 2014

Wunderbarer Meerblick

Wir verbrachten herrliche Tage im frühlingshaften Ligurien. Die Villa Giomi hat uns sehr gefallen, viel Platz, herrliche Aussichten aufs Meer, sehr sympathische und zuvorkommende Gastgeber. Wir hatten einen Jugendlichen im Rollstuhl dabei und Vincenzo hat extra noch eine Rampe zur Überwindung einer Stufe im Wohnzimmer und zur Terrasse hinaus gebaut. Somit war das Haus dank des Lifts von der Garage bis ins Wohnzimmer bzw. den ersten Stock gut rollstuhlgeeigent. Vincenzo war stets sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit ohne je aufdringlich zu sein und auch seine Frau und die drei herzigen Kinder lernten wir kennen. Der nahe kleine Strand von Cavi ist sehr hübsch und im Restaurant Melagrano in Cavi (natürlich Tipp von Vincenzo) haben wir vorzüglich gegessen. Der Blick aufs Meer ist einfach wunderbar.

LA MEJOR CASA DE LA LIGURIA!! IMPOSIBLE OTRA MEJOR

Eramos ocho personas en una Increíble casa al pie de la montaña con una vista excepcional. Se encuentra ubicada EN Lavagna entre dos pueblos muy pintorescos de la liguria, y muy práctica para desde allí conocer cinque Terre y Portofino. Es muy grande, equipada con elementos de alta calidad (colchones, sábanas, utensillos de cocina,etc) Todo impecable, dormitorios en la planta superior con baño y vista espectacular. Hogar a leña en el living, hidromasaje en la terraza. Muy buena calefacción. Tiene aire acondicionado.. Ascensor que comunica toda la casa. Amplia cochera con control remoto. El estado de la casa es impecable . Pero lo mejor: sus dueños: Vincenzo y Yamile. Son dos fuera de serie como la casa. Imposible que haya en toda la liguria una casa mejor con dueños como ellos. UNA CASA MUY MUY RECOMENDABLE. Y UNA PAREJA DE ANFITRIONES COMO NUNCA NOS HABIA TOCADO SIEMPRE A DISPOSICION DEL HUESPED. Lo único malo que tiene la casa, es que da mucha pena cuando hay que irse, y Vincenzo no la vende, OJALA VOLVAMOS ALGUN DIA. GRACIAS VINCENZO Y YAMILE!!!!! BESOS A LOS CHICOS!!!!

Casa Lavagna

The house is exactly as presented. It is large, spacious, well kept and well supplied with amenities. Much more so than other houses we have rented in Italy. It housed our family of 8 with maximum comfort and privacy. It is situated above the village of Cavi with wonderful views, but is a little hard to find. A railway runs between the village of Cavi and the sea which is typical on this coastline. The beach (gravelly, but very useable) and sea are conveniently close, and train travel to the Cinque Terre etc. is very convenient. The host family lives on a lower level, and is most hospitable and helpful in all ways, but is not intrusive. I would rate this accommodation very highly.

El mar día y noche en la ventana...

Villa Giomi tiene una perfecta ubicación estratégica entre las dos principales joyas de la Liguria (Portofino y Cinque Terre), ademas de estar cerca de otras nada despreciables, como Camogli,Portovenere, Rapallo, Santa Margherita y la propia Genova. La casa es muy cómoda y funcional, y posee tres méritos nada comunes en Europa: un ascensor moderno, que facilita la vida diaria, ambientes amplios y una hermosa e invasiva vista al mar en TODOS sus cuartos. Si le sumamos a esto la calidez humana de Yamile, Vincenzo y sus hijos, no hay duda que el conjunto es muy recomendable, y ojalá podamos volver. Hay un solo problema en Villa Giomi: no se puede dormir en las noches de luna, porque es mas lindo mirar el mar... Beatriz y Horacio

Celebrating my 60th Birthday

The Villa is ideally placed between the mountains and the sea, with spectacular views across the sea. Vincenzo was the perfect host and even made a delicious birthday cake for me. The hot tub, well what can i say, i want one, but i want one overlooking the sea like here at the villa. Plenty to do and see or you can just chill and relax with a good book, whatever you choice this is the ideal place.

Simply perfect!

We spent a wonderful week at Vincenzo's place, cycling along the coast and the nearby mountains. The house is fully equipped with everything you would need for a vacation and with plenty of space. The best is to relax in the jacuzzi and overlook the sea. Vincenzo is a great host! We can definitely recommend a stay!

It's been the best holiday home ever!

Our family travels a lot and we've seen many other houses in Italy. This property was really the best one we've ever rented! The location was fantastic: on the cliff with a stunning sea view, with easy reach to all wonderful places in Italian Riviera as Portofino, Cinqua Terre, Genoa etc. But the house itself was something unreal: very cosy, warm and lovely decorated, with such amenities as lift(!), wood fireplace and whirpool bath outdoors! Owners of the villa were extremely friendly, helpful and treated us as members of their own family. I will recommend the villa for all my friends as the best sample of beauty and hospitality. To be honest we've already booked the villa for next Easter holidays (a one year in advance!) because we can't imagine to stay in any other place by now. The top rating: 10 out of 10.

One Word......Outstanding!!!!!!! From the time that Vincenzo greets you on the first day, until you say good-bye, you know that you have experienced something very special. His villa is very clean, safe, and spacious. The actual views are even better than the internet pictures, and for those of you that travel; you know that doesn't happen very often. This villa is perfect for couples or families. Great location that allows you to travel in any direction by road or train. I just hope I have the opportunity to return and stay here again.

The villa is outstanding. The views, the spacious layout, the amenities, the garden, the hot tub, the well equipped kitchen, the many bedrooms and baths make this an ideal vacation retreat. The location is beautiful. The experience is enhanced by the wonderful host. VIncenzo is very helpful and gracious. He really strives to make his guests stay pleasant. It was an absolute pleasure to stay at this lovely villa. I would highly recommend this place to family and friends.

Great villa with a friendly atmosphere

We were staying as 2 families with 3 small children. The villa is very nice and clean all with a focus on details. The villa shows very good maintainance and everything was as described and shown on photos. All rooms including the kitchen are well equipped including a massage chair and large fridge. Vincenzo's hospitality is also exceptional and he is always ready to help. The view is great and the location is in a well walkable distance to the beach. A car is recommended though because of shopping and exploring the surroundings. Overall a great stay and we will remember looking at the sea from the hot jacuzzi.
