Where to Stay in sestri levante

There are a variety of accommodation options in Sestri Levante, with a surprisingly large number of high-rated hotels. A number of those hotels are within the old town and close to the bays, whilst the majority of the apartment rentals are closer to the train station in the new town area (though still just a 10-15 minute walk from where you need to be).

As with any popular holiday destination in Italy, it is imperative that you book your accommodation as far in advance as possible, especially if you have your eye on a particular property or are on a bit of a budget.

Airbnbs

Apartment Vela Verde | A lovely modern, bright two storey, two bedroom apartment very close to the station. It also has a small garden.

Casa Marinin | Whilst we actually booked this on Booking.com, we felt this apartment (where we stayed) was better placed in this section. A super modern, stylish one-bedroom, it’s a stones throw from the station and only a 15 minute walk to the beach. Fantastic hosts too – we highly recommend it!

Casa Vanilla | An aesthetically pleasing two-bedroom apartment with exposed brick and a modern nautical design, it also benefits from a small terrace, as well as being just 200 metres from the beach!

Appartamento in Baia del Silenzio | A large, traditional three bedroom apartment, this Airbnb’s major selling point is its location right on the Bay of Silence, with spectacular waterfront views from the small terrace, as well as several rooms.

Corte di Mare | This large two bedroom property (converted from traditional stables) is ideal for a family or two couples travelling together. It’s been well-renovated and has a modern-rustic style, benefiting from a large private courtyard.

Olivia’s Home | Located just outside the pedestrianised historic area, this modern apartment (filled with light, clean lines and contemporary aesthetic) with one large double and a second twin room – plus cot if needed – is ideal for a family travelling by car.

Like elsewhere along the Ligurian coast, accommodation prices in Sestri Levante (especially in high season) tend to be a little on the higher side compared to elsewhere in Italy. However, there are a number of cheaper, more budget friendly options in town, including:

Ca’ da Melina

Il giro del mondo in un loft

Casa Mare Carolina (this one’s particularly good!)
