If I had to use one word it would be "amazing". What a location. What a service. From both the team that takes care of breakfast and the rooms. And certainly for David who was kind enough to take my wife, who has difficulty walking, upstairs and pick her up in the morning. Service is of paramount importance at Villa Nova.

My daughter and I stayed in the “Giara” apartment with our little dog for 7 days. It was simply a perfect week of vacation: comfortable and clean accommodation, very tasty breakfast, super friendly team and wonderful facilities. Particularly noteworthy is the small but nice pool. We used the great shuttle service every day to get to Levanto easily. A great idea!We would like to thank you very much for this great experience and would be happy to come back.

We stayed at this property for a week. What can I say, everything was perfect. The place is very well looked after, impeccable cleanliness, super breakfast. But the real added value is the very kind and helpful staff. A special thank you goes to Davide who followed us, advised and helped us throughout our stay. We will definitely return.

This place is close to an Italian heaven. Many thanks to David, who is very flexible in accommodating our wishes and the wonderful breakfast team. We had the newly renovated cottage right next to the villa. Fantastic garden, nice kitchen and great bedrooms to relax, read or enjoy with friends. The shuttle service is right what it needs and the Levanto location is much less crowded than the five villages.

If you are looking for the perfect Italian getaway with your family and kids look no further than Villanova. The houses and rooms / apartments, the garden, the pool and the breakfast and dinners are all done with so much love and passion that a week in this beautiful agriturismo just goes by in a heartbeat. The owner Giancarlo and his staff are super friendly and take care of the families and kids better than any 5 star hotel. Make sure to book your stay here if you don‘t want to stay in high-prices small hotel rooms in Cinque Terre and love really good breakfasts and views!

Stroll through its medieval heart, where the 13th-century Church of Sant’Andrea dazzles with its striking black-and-white façade and rose window. Discover the medieval Loggia and the House Restani, remnants of Levanto’s prosperous mercantile past.

A short train ride or scenic ferry trip transports you to Cinque Terre, a UNESCO-listed wonder where five enchanting villages cling to dramatic cliffs. Wander along the legendary Sentiero Azzurro, the coastal trail linking Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. The Via dell’Amore section, renowned for its breathtaking sunset views, is a must for romantics.

For those seeking tranquility, hidden trails wind through terraced vineyards and olive groves, revealing panoramic views over the shimmering Ligurian Sea. The rugged hillsides, shaped by centuries of labor, contrast beautifully with the Mediterranean vegetation.

Beyond the trails, Levanto’s golden beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant culinary scene invite relaxation. Whether exploring medieval streets, hiking through lush landscapes, or savoring local flavors by the sea, this captivating region promises an unforgettable journey into Italy’s timeless beauty.
