Casa vacanze A lea l’ua is an independent property in Finale Ligure, Liguria, set in the hamlet of Bricco a short distance from the sea. The property comprises five types of units, all equipped with a full kitchen, air conditioning and a terrace or patio with sea view or garden view, designed for families, couples and small groups seeking independence and outdoor space.
The units range from 33 to 56 square metres and can accommodate from 2 to 6 people, with layouts including one or two separate bedrooms and, in some cases, a sofa bed in the living room. Each unit has a private bathroom with shower and bidet, washing machine, microwave, refrigerator and flat-screen satellite TV, as well as a shared barbecue area in the property’s garden.
The Bricco area, in the hills above Varigotti, offers a quiet setting surrounded by the greenery of the Parco del Finalese, just a few minutes’ drive from the beaches of Punta Crena and Baia dei Saraceni. It is a convenient base for exploring the Ligurian hinterland, the area’s karst caves and the Finale Ligure coastline, while staying away from the traffic of the town centre.

The five units of Casa vacanze A lea l’ua share a common layout: independent entrance, full kitchen with hob, refrigerator and microwave, private bathroom with shower and bidet, air conditioning and flat-screen satellite TV. All units also feature a washing machine and access to the barbecue and the property’s garden, elements that make each stay self-sufficient from a domestic point of view.
The main differences concern the size, from 33 to 56 square metres, and the layout of the spaces: the 2-Bedroom House is the largest and accommodates up to six people in two separate rooms plus a living room with a sofa bed, while the other, more compact units are suited to couples or small family groups. Some units add a balcony or a panoramic terrace with sea view, others favour a patio overlooking the garden.
The largest of the single-bedroom units, with 54 sqm spread over a separate bedroom and a living room with a sofa bed for two additional guests. The balcony and terrace overlooking the sea set it apart from the other Holiday Homes on the property, along with the independent entrance and air conditioning.
With 39 sqm and a single plus double bed configuration in the only bedroom, this unit is designed for up to three guests. It has no private balcony or terrace, but offers sea view and garden view from the interior spaces, along with a kitchen and a bathroom with shower and bidet.
The 2-Bedroom House is the only unit with two separate rooms, both with a large double bed, plus a living room with a sofa bed: the largest and most spacious solution in the property, suited to groups or large families of up to six people, with a sea-view terrace and balcony.
The most compact unit in the property, with 33 sqm designed for a couple. It has a single bedroom with a large double bed, a balcony and terrace facing the garden, as well as an equipped kitchen and a bathroom with shower.
Similar in size to the previous unit but with a single plus double bed configuration for up to three guests, this unit favours an outdoor patio instead of a balcony, with sea view from the interior spaces and a coffee machine included.
Casa vacanze A lea l’ua places great emphasis on outdoor spaces: the property’s garden is furnished with sun umbrellas, deck chairs and sun loungers, and includes a sun terrace and an outdoor dining area where the shared barbecue can be used. The property is entirely non-smoking and offers free private parking on site, convenient for those arriving by car from the area’s beaches.
Inside, each unit is air-conditioned and heated, with independent access via its own keys and the option of luggage storage. Pets are allowed, possibly with a surcharge. Free WiFi is available throughout the property, while the flat-screen TV with satellite channels completes the technological setup of each unit, designed for an independent, informal stay.
Casa vacanze A lea l’ua is located in the Le Manie area, in the hamlet of Bricco, on the hills separating Finale Ligure from Varigotti. It is a residential area surrounded by the greenery of the Parco Regionale del Finalese, away from the traffic of the coast but just a few minutes’ drive from the sea, with a landscape of olive trees, Mediterranean scrub and views over the Gulf of Genoa.
The nearest beaches are Baia dei Saraceni and Spiaggia di Punta Crena, both about 1.7 km away, followed by Spiaggia del Malpasso at 1.9 km and the main beach of Finale Ligure at 3.2 km. Some restaurants such as Aqua di Varigotti (550 m) and Bagni Clara (650 m) can be reached in a few minutes. Finale Ligure Marina railway station is about 4 km away, while Riviera Airport is about 24 km away and Genoa-Sestri Airport just over 40 km away, useful for those arriving from outside the region.
The area is a good base for alternating between sea and hinterland: the Toirano Caves, a karst cave system open to visitors all year round, are about 28 km away, while the Cavernone di Monte Cucco and the trails of the Finalese, a historic destination for climbing and mountain biking, are just a few kilometres away. In summer, the beaches of Varigotti and Noli offer clear waters and beach clubs, while in the low season the coast is well suited to walks and excursions towards the Bergeggi Island Marine Protected Area, about 9 km away.
