Affittacamere Da Cesare is a family-run bed and breakfast in the historic centre of Monterosso al Mare, one of the villages of the Cinque Terre, in Liguria.
The property occupies what used to be the owners’ grandmother’s house, and in the common areas guests can admire old photographs of the village, its people and its traditions: a detail that tells the family’s story rather than that of a typical anonymous B&B. The rooms have wooden floors, different colour combinations from one another, air conditioning, flat-screen TV, minibar and a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer.
The location is one of the most appreciated features: the historic centre beach is about 150 metres away, Fegina beach is 200 metres away, and several traditional restaurants are just steps from the entrance. Monterosso’s train station, useful for travelling to the other Cinque Terre villages, is a few minutes’ walk away. An address suited to those who want to experience the village on foot, without depending on a car.
Affittacamere Da Cesare offers one type of room designed for couples or two people travelling together, with wooden furnishings and a homely character that recalls the property’s family history. Each room is air-conditioned and features parquet floors, colour combinations that differ from room to room, a flat-screen TV, minibar and a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, plus a small kettle for tea and coffee useful for a self-service breakfast.
The flexibility in bed configuration is a notable feature: the room can be set up with a large double bed or with two single beds, adapting to couples as well as friends or relatives sharing the same space. With a floor area of about 15 square metres, the room is compact but functional, designed for those who spend their days exploring the Cinque Terre and look for only essential quality comforts in the room.
The only room type available in the property, this room of about 15 sqm combines wooden floors and a carefully chosen mix of colours with practical amenities such as a flat-screen TV and minibar.
