Fulfilling vacation
Capoliveri reminds me of Matera, but with sweeping views of the sea. It's also how Vernazza once was 20+ years ago. This town is historical, CLEAN, architecturally beautiful, pedestrian friendly, bursting with flowers and planters where people from all over the island seem to gravitate - it is not isolated. and yet, it is not a fabricated gated Disney, thank goodness. This apartment is perfectly situated & outfitted in such a European way - engineered & designed intelligently with good esthetics. The views from every room are stellar - even the loft allows you to see out the french doors. Views of the church steeple from the bedroom, the town from the living room, the sea from the kitchen. Take your pick from the patios. Communication with hosts is easy & quick. We wasted money on a 3-day bus pass and after one day decided to rent a car to have freedom and time to see what we wanted, when we wanted, and as fast as we wanted - you're not in Rome with busses every couple minutes going in every direction. We worked out a very close parking spot with owners.The town is so beautiful - the art, laid back social feel, and in Italian fashion - family friendly. Capoliveri wakes up early with shops and bakeries and music and the church bells and people visiting. Then as traditional Italian towns do, Capoliveri takes its siesta to remind you to rest before it wakes up in the evening for great socializing. No question, we would stay in this apartment again.
