Family-friendly vacation rentals in Marina di Massa

Anna's place is spectacular and prob the best Airbnb we've stayed at - the views from the apartment are insane, the rooftop deck is huge and from my vantage point some of the best in all of Cinque Terre, not just Manarola. We ended up liking Manarola the best of all the towns and Anna did a great job communicating with us the entire time. A couple of notes - the first is that there is a way down to the water that doesn't require you going all the way back down Belvedere but using steps that are closer to the apartment. The second is that for a while I couldn't find the AC in the living room, but its in the ceiling right between the bedroom and the bathroom, you might have to walk over to it and point the remote at it to get it to turn on properly!

This apartment is located at the Corniglia bus stop - so it’s easy to take the bus up and skip those 377 steps if you want! The apartment has a lovely terrace with beautiful views of the Mediterranean, comfortable furniture, and air conditioner units in every room. The only thing to be aware of is: if you like to shower, that is a bit difficult in the jacuzzi as the ceilings are low (but if you like bathing it’s a cozy tub with a cool sunroof which opens for ventilation)

The stay at Sara's house was really very pleasant. This beautiful, recently restored house overlooks a fragrant, flower-filled garden. The kitchen is equipped with super appliances and quality dishes. The beds are very comfortable and the linen is of high quality. There's nothing missing to fully enjoy the vacation. Another thing that makes this village special is the fact that you have to leave the car and get home on foot with a pleasant walk while the luggage travels on the tractor driven by Bryan. far from the noise of the city, I spent hours immersed in the peace and greenery of the woods in the background. Sara and Bryan are thoughtful and welcoming hosts and know how to anticipate every desire. I highly recommend this place if you want to experience moments of true relaxation.

Gilda is a great, very warm host. To welcome us, there was homemade jam, cake and a large fruit basket. The homemade bread was especially delicious. The farewell was sweetened again with jam and homemade limoncello. The apartment is very well maintained and clean. The view over Massa to the sea was great. We felt welcome and comfortable right from the beginning. Thanks for the great place 🙂

Awesome place to stay if you are looking for privacy and nature going hand in hand in the beautiful chalet surrounded by peaceful calmness and a relaxing atmosphere. Maria who is a very friendly Host was always helpful and responded very quickly if we had questions and we are thankful for whole service (with the car :) We recommend the chalet a 10/10 and would revisit it anytime again !

Top notch. Giacomo recommended some great activities to do nearby (after Lucca and Pisa). Very friendly family. Thank you!

We spent 3 fantastic days in Daniele's villa, immersed in the tranquility of the Tuscan countryside. We were 9 friends and the house was perfect for our stay: spacious, clean and equipped with all the comforts. The outdoor pool and jacuzzi were the stars of our relaxing days, while the indoor sauna added a special touch to the evenings. The common areas are spacious and well-organized, and the outdoor porch is ideal for a barbecue. Daniele was an impeccable host: always available and attentive, he made us feel welcome right away. A stay that we recommend without hesitation, perfect for those looking for peace, comfort and a nice place to share moments with friends.

Wonderful experience with this beautiful home on the top of the Spezia. Thank you to Alberto and his wife for their kindness, hospitality and welcome gifts! They are super responsive in communication and answer our questions very quickly! I can only recommend this place.

It was a fantastic Tuscany house. Very clean and huge. Everything was fine.

Small cottage surrounded by greenery, a corner of relaxation and tranquility guaranteed. Small enjoyable garden, super clean house, despite the bathroom not having a window, there is a French door attached, so it is as if it had one. Kitchen equipped with all desirable amenities. Unbeatable value for money, friendly and responsive host. I recommend the accommodation to those who, like us, were looking for a place to relax and feel at home right away. Arriving was not difficult as the host provided us with a very useful short video to immediately understand the way to go. Note of merit to the bed that turned out to be very comfortable.

Excellent accommodation close to everything on foot. The train station is less than 5 minutes away. Ideal for village visits. Fabio took a lot of time to give us tips to discover the area

We absolutely loved our stay in Castè — it was a magical place. Peaceful, beautiful views, an inviting courtyard with fairy lights and fireflies. The apartment was clean and filled with antique furniture and lovely details. Gianni and Antonella were very accommodating, meeting us at check in and showing us everything to ensure we were comfortable. They also spent the first 30 minutes, explaining sites to see in Cinque Terre, where to eat, park the car, and some insider tips. We felt right at home and can't wait to go back!

Great apartment in the heart of La Spezia! Easily walkable to everything — the train station, ferries, museums, restaurants and shops. The washer/dryer was essential in allowing us to pack light on our 2 week Italian adventure. If I’m ever lucky enough to be back in the area, would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Cristina is the perfect host and the house is beautiful. The surroundings are amazing and the views......wow! All through the booking and our stay there Cristina was swift to answer any questions we had and also was happy to offer suggestions on places to go and where to eat. We had a perfect week there and I wouldn't hesitate to go back or to recommend her place to anyone else. Cristina and her sister met us at the house and showed us round, clearly pointing out all the relevant bits that we would need to know. Thank you so much for making our week in Italy so special and enjoyable......we are already looking to come back!

Nice and calm Apartment with a great view next to La Spezia. You have so many different options what you can do e.g. - you can visit different beaches, you Can go hiking, you Can start trips to La Spezia, Cinque Terre or even Pisa - its only one hour with the car. We stayed for one week and we recommend this Apartment!

We enjoyed our stay very much, the house corresponds exactly to the description and the pictures. The location is a bit remote, which we found very nice. By bus, you can also get to the city center/station of La Spezia in 20 minutes, the bus stop is almost directly in front of the house and Anna gave us 2 tickets. Anna was super helpful, explained everything to us and was always immediately available for questions. She also gave us good tips for activities, restaurants, etc. At check-in and check-out, they transported our luggage to the car, so we didn't have to carry anything. The car is in a public parking lot about 200m from the house, here Anna reserved a parking space for us before arrival. Upon arrival, a food basket with pastries and honey and coffee was ready. Since Anna does not speak German or English, we talked about translator apps, which worked very well. Our dog was very welcome too.

We spent two nights on the boat and enjoyed the time very much. Corrado and his whole family are very hospitable, gave us a very nice welcome with aperitif on the boat and brought a great breakfast in the morning. The best thing was the boat trip, which we also booked with Corrado! Our children and we had a great time and it was a unique experience!

Fantastic accommodation. Quiet and peaceful. Perfect with a little cooling temperature up in the mountains.

Amazing place! Nestled in the beautiful surroundings of the Lucca hills. Very peaceful. Lots of birdsong. We saw a deer in the garden! The grounds are brilliant and the place is the perfect size for a couple. We loved eating on the terrace with the great view, and swimming in the private pool. Only a short drive to Lucca which has some amazing restaurants (our favourite was Osteria de Pasquale). There’s some great vineyards in the area - our favourite was Fattoria Sardi. If I was reading this review I wouldn’t think twice about booking!

A real little paradise. A warm welcome from Manuela. I highly recommend it!!! We just left and dream of going back!

We had a wonderful stay, the house really felt like a home and was instantly relaxing. The whole booking and check in process was very straightforward and Giuseppe who met us to show us around the property and hand over the keys was very welcoming, kind and informative. The house has wonderfully peaceful location, with beautiful views. It has been furnished with excellent taste, and so adds to the feeling of being in a real home rather than a rental. The gardens and pool are delightful and evenings on the loggia will be remembered for a long time, we cant wait to return!

We loved staying at Elisa’s place - so lovingly restored and a truly special place. Beautiful setting and we loved hanging out in the garden on the sun loungers in the peaceful surroundings. Being able to say hello to their dogs and having their sweet cats in the garden made it feel like home to us. Easy parking nearby. Thank you so much!

A Hidden Gem in an Olive Grove – Peaceful and Perfect! The apartment was spacious, clean, nicely decorated, and had a fully equipped kitchen. A highlight was the large terrace with sea view, where we enjoyed family meals. The shared pool was great, especially for our daughter. For our baby, everything we needed was provided. The location is ideal — close to Lerici and San Terenzo. In off-season, parking was easy. Mattia was a friendly and reliable host, organizing everything smoothly from remote, with his helpful parents being around. Even when we forgot our passports when leaving, he quickly arranged to send them back to us. Highly recommended for a relaxing, comfortable retreat — we’d love to return!

The hosts were perfect, giving advice on where to visit and things to do. The food was outstanding, you really need to have a meal cooked by them. The accommodation was lovely, everything you need. The surroundings were like a little piece of heaven, it is so beautiful and peaceful. We are already planning our return trip!
