OltreMare is a guest house in Riomaggiore, in the heart of the Cinque Terre, about 300 meters from the village beach and 200 meters from the railway station connecting the five Ligurian villages.
The property offers three types of double rooms, all air-conditioned and equipped with private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, refrigerator, electric kettle and desk. One of the rooms features its own terrace, ideal for those who want to enjoy the view of the village even from private spaces. WiFi is free throughout the property, while private parking is available for an additional cost.
The central location, just steps from typical restaurants such as Il Grottino and Osteria Maitè and a stone’s throw from the Cinque Terre National Park, makes OltreMare a convenient base for exploring the coastal trails and nearby villages. Guests traveling as couples have particularly praised the location, a sign of a guest house designed for those seeking a romantic and authentic stay amid the sea and terraces.
The rooms at OltreMare share a simple and functional style, designed for those visiting the Cinque Terre and looking for practical comforts rather than oversized spaces. All are air-conditioned and have a private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, as well as a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, refrigerator, electric kettle and desk: amenities designed for a self-sufficient stay, with sheets and towels always included.
The range includes three types, all doubles designed for two people: the Double Room with Private Bathroom and the King Deluxe Room, both 25 square meters, and the Double Room with Terrace, more compact but unique for having a private outdoor space with a view. The choice between the three depends mainly on this detail: those looking for an outdoor view will opt for the room with terrace, while those who prefer more square meters will choose one of the other two.
With its 25 square meters, this is one of the largest rooms in the property. It has a private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, toiletries, independent entrance and wardrobe, in addition to the standard air conditioning and flat-screen TV with cable channels.
More compact than the other two room types but unique in its kind: it’s the only room in the property with a private terrace with a view, along with a private bathroom and standard air conditioning. Ideal for those who want to enjoy an outdoor moment without leaving the room.
Equal in size to the Double Room with Private Bathroom but offered as a Deluxe option, with a private bathroom featuring shower, bidet and hairdryer, independent entrance and wardrobe, plus the air conditioning and TV with cable channels common to all rooms.
OltreMare offers amenities designed for those staying in Riomaggiore independently. Each room has a private bathroom with tub or shower, toilet, bidet, complimentary bath products and hairdryer, as well as bed linen and wardrobe. WiFi connection is free throughout the property, while the flat-screen TV offers cable and satellite channels.
Among the general services, the common terrace, independent entrance and heating stand out, useful in the colder months. The property is entirely non-smoking and also offers activities unusual for the area, such as scuba diving and canoeing, for those who want to discover the Cinque Terre sea from another perspective.
For those arriving from afar, a paid airport shuttle is available, while parking, though not free, remains convenient for those traveling by car in a village where private parking spaces are rare.
OltreMare is located in the center of Riomaggiore, the first of the five villages that make up the Cinque Terre, just steps from the village’s main beach, about 300 meters away, and 200 meters from the railway station connecting Riomaggiore to the other villages by train. The urban fabric is typically Ligurian: colorful houses clinging to the rock, narrow alleys and staircases descending toward the small harbor.
La Spezia Centrale station is about 12 km away, while Pisa Galileo Galilei airport is about 69 km away, also reachable via the property’s paid airport shuttle. Within a few meters there are several typical restaurants, including Il Grottino and Osteria Maitè, about 20 meters away, ideal for tasting local cuisine based on fish and pesto. The Cinque Terre National Park practically begins at the doorstep, 350 meters from the property.
Guests staying at OltreMare can spend their days hiking along the famous trails connecting the five villages, walkable in several hours depending on the section chosen, or diving and canoeing, activities offered directly by the property to discover the seabed and coves of the coast. In high season, between spring and summer, the beach of Riomaggiore and that of Cantun, about 4 km away, are the most popular seaside destinations, while in autumn and winter the panoramic trails toward Manarola and La Spezia offer a quieter alternative for visiting museums such as the Amedeo Lia Museum or the San Giorgio Castle, both about 6-7 km away.
