Reviews from Villaggio Ippotur

A place with a very good atmosphere but bungalows far below standard, small, dark bathroom with a radiator in the shower, for hot water need to wait few minutes, everything looks like was about to fall apart. The positive is a very friendly service and charming place.

Cinque Terre as a holiday destination

I have been in Ippotour one week long with my family. We are very pleased for our time there because our apartment was clean, lately renovated, with clima, equipped, with separate terrace. The view was awsame and the Ippotur has really special charm. Main problem was warm water which was no available in the shower each time. The water in pool was cold.
But we are in group or only several customers who had luck to have renovated houses. Only 5 from 32 houses were renovated. The rest has bad standard and customers from all over the Europe were disapointed.
Ippotour is about 7km from the sea cost and there is no shop in the neighborhood ( restaurant at pkace) so you need to often drive a car and the road insite Ippotour is really steep and bumpy and only for good car drivers. There are many of stairs to go if you want to go from pool to your house so it's better to have good condition. Tv is not in all houses.

We had, before our trip, read some of the reviews from earlier guests at Ippotur - and some were critical, so we were prepared for something near the worst, when we arrived. The cabin was small and old and cleaning wasn't fantastic. The location, on the other hand, was amazing along with a view over the valley, our own private terrace, where we grilled some nights, and the pool was fantastic. The Italian owners were very friendly and accommodating, so we felt very well received. We spent 14 days at Ippotur and had a lovely holiday. We could definitely see us ourselves returning some other time.

Recommendations for future guests

Pisa and Florence are a must, but also Sarzana and Carrara are worth a visit. We also drove to Grotta del Vento (Wind's cave) by the mountain road. The drive to it was almost as big of an experience as the dripstone caves themself.
