Villanova - Nature & Wellness

Throughly enjoyed our time at Villanova. Great room for a family of four. Beautiful surroundings, delicious homemade organic breakfast, lovely staff and a great shuttle service that takes you downtown either in the morning hours or in late afternoon/early evening. The pool area was really nice too, but as we were here in late march, weather wasn’t really for it. The hiking opportunities in and around cinque terre are amazing and Villanova serves as a perfect base to explore. We would love to return.

The place was very pretty and location was great. It was clean and comfortable. We had 2 kids with us , one 6 year old and another 4 year old. And we stayed only did 1 night , didn’t use the pools or anything since we were doing a lot of visiting cinque terre and also the aquarium. In our room there was a bottle of wine and 1 pack of chips and peanuts left on the table left with a “WELCOME “ card on it, so to my knowledge as I have been to many hotels wich leave little cute gift like that was a warm welcoming from the staff…… well note to self “”” a welcoming card with a bottle of wine is NOT a nice gesture from the staff but it means 26€ for it after. Now I would have left 5 star if , after I payed for the room and the breakfast for adults was 15€ each and 10€ for children, my daughter and son ate 1 biscuits if that by the way. The owner latter sent me a messenger saying by the way we charged u an additional 26 for the bottle of wine. I don’t know if he did that bc it was really not a welcoming gift or he was charging me more bc I took a banana and a biscuit to go for the kids since they didn’t eat ANY breakfast except for a cookie, I saw the waitress stare at me so that could also be why. Anyways the place was great it would have been even better if they acted a bit nicer and not so uptight, especially since we stayed 1 night from 10 pm and checked out at 9 am and payed 268€ plus 26€ for the wine. Also u can NOT check in from 12.30-15.30

Villanova was the perfect place for our entire family of 10 adults and 12 children and teens to spend a week. For the children and teens it was a first time visit to the country where their great grandfather was born and the experience could not have been better. Villanova's shuttle ran for two hours twice a day, making it easy to get to the beach in Levanto, which was not overly crowded midweek, or to catch a train to Cinque Terra for hiking. For breakfast there was something delicious for everyone, including the vegans in our group. The pool was lovely and the location spectacular. The staff was helpful, friendly, and patient with the joyful exuberance of the children. I would happily stay at Villanova again in the future.

Decor is charming, breakfast an impressive assortment of fresh fruit, breads, pastries, owner and staff all friendly and helpful. I would happily come back. rooms were spacious and well appointed. Coffee, tea, cookies available 24/7 for jet lag!

Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits dans cet établissement. Davide est très sympathique et l’établissement est convivial. Une navette gratuite de la réception est disponible pour vous déposer à la gare afin de se déplacer aux Cinq Terres en train. L’endroit est très charmant, reposant et sécurisé. Notre chambre était un peu vieillotte mais charmante et propre. Le petit déjeuné est varié et copieux. Merci pour le séjour.

Cet endroit est magnifique, il n'y pas d'autres mots. Le reste fut aussi excellent que ce soit l'accueil (vraiment excellent et sympathique, le déjeuner est grandiose, le personnel vraiment gentil avec des petites attentions pour notre fille. Ce qui nous empêche de mettre un 5, c'est le prix du lave linge et sèche linge. 5 € chacun. C'est du détail mais on ne peut mettre que des chiffres entiers sur ce site. L'hotel mériterait une note entre 4,5 et 5 en fait ..mais pas un 5 du coup. Néanmoins vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés, encore un grand merci à toute l'équipe.
