La Casa Del Gigante is a luxury villa in Monterosso’s most exclusive situation.
This prestigious villa in Monterosso is part of the building near the famous giant statue, the Gigante, which is the symbol of Monterosso. It has a curious and fascinating history. Its architecture is smart and welcoming. Renting this villa in Monterosso, Cinque Terre, is a unique privilege!
La Casa del Gigante luxury villa has a private entrance from the narrow road that leads from the Fegina beaches to the village’s most imposing villas. It is just below the towers of Monterosso, one of which - Torre dei Merli - is available for rent. The huge arch windows characterise the house and lighten the villa’s living and dining room. The concept of the building is that of a great cave, protected by its huge windows, which let the sky and the sea become part of the house and lighten the interiors.
The building is easily recognisable from afar, from Vernazza.
From the living and dining space, a handsome staircase leads to the upper level with a double bedroom. It is a large loft where guests, lying on the bed, can rest and admire the waves, Vernazza and the other Cinque Terre villages in the distance.
This bedroom’s private bathroom is just as incredible as the rest of the house: a tall, vertical glass offers a view over the sea, while taking a shower!
Another bathroom with shower is at the ground floor. From the living and dining room you can access a curved space with a sofa that can be turned into two single beds, joinable in a double one upon request. Air conditioning on the ground floor, fan in the loft bedroom.
The view from La Casa del Gigante is breathtaking. This is a truly peculiar villa in Monterosso: the changing colours of the water below, the bright lights of Vernazza in front of it, and the shades of the Cinque Terre coastline make this a unique place of observation. La Casa del Gigante is ideal for couples, but also for families of four. It is located near the beaches, and easily reached from the train station (250 metres on level road).
