Schloss mit privater pool, meerblick, gelegen zwischen Cinque Terre & Portofino

The Villa and the out buildings of "Mereta Castle” date back to 1400, with a private infinity pool equipped with water jets and a green relax area with sun beds. There is an internal parking fenced by the walls. The property is surrounded by beautiful greenery, within a hectare of private olive grove, and are located on a beautiful hill overlooking a natural amphitheatre with views down to the sea. It is a place for exclusive holidays where the idyllic feel of the countryside, and the charm “Dolce Vita” are combined with the elegance of the "Master House" and the majesty of the adjacent "Tower".
The rustic interior comes with a precious and charming furniture at the same time.
The property offers a total of 10 sleeps in 5 double rooms. The property is not shared with other people, so we can say that it is at your sole use. All the bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning to allow a pleasant rest also in case of very hot weather, while the common areas do not have air conditioning.

-------------------------------------------------
PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE BOOKING: the property is an ancient building, dating back to the 13th century. The interior is very well kept and as you can see from the photos and you can read from several reviews (we have a 5 stars average!), it is clean and comfortable, the air conditioning is new and the kitchen is antique style, but modern. Nevertheless, all the furnitures are antiques, such as the beds, the sofa etc. If you are not that kind of person who likes such an historical and antique atmosphere, please do not book this property. We have great respect for everybody's personal taste, but we had guests who were disappointed because they were expecting modern space and standard atmosphere, like the ones they can find in a 5 stars Hotel. We are not equipped with all the amenities you can expect from an Hotel, nor we pretend to be as an Hotel, we are an holiday house with some very original characteristics. Let me also say, more than original, I would say, unique. You can relax under the shadow of a centenary Watchtower which was built even before Christopher Columbus had discovered the Americas, but definitively you will not stay in a 5 stars Hotel. Only our reviews have a 5 stars average rate!!!
To make a long story short, we are for many, but not for all!
If this fits with your expectations, please continue reading the description of the property! We would love to have you staying with us!
