Looking for the perfect place to take a step back from all the crowds, rushing around viewing churches, museums and monuments?

Mar-Mar offers dormitory-style as well as private accommodations in the Cinque Terre with a difference, offering you a slower pace of life that has changed little over hundreds of years. Local residents still maintain some of their traditional livelihoods of fishing and wine making, living on the steep rugged hillsides along the Cinque Terre coastline.

Riomaggiore is the southernmost village of the \'five lands\', making it an ideal place to begin your exploration of the Cinque Terre National Park and the famous hiking trails. This is the ultimate location to relax with the locals, take some time out and experience the authentic rural Italian lifestyle.

Mar-Mar has traditional accommodations, full of character and home comforts, right alongside those of the locals so you feel part of the community right from the beginning.

Explore the remainder of the villages at your own pace either on foot or by train. Take some locally made wine down to the rocks and watch the sunset over the med, or enjoy a meal made with fresh local ingredients at one of the many little osterias. If you are a hiker, mountain biker or just want to switch off and chill out by the sea, Mar-Mar in Riomaggiore has the laid back atmosphere you just might be craving.

Directions

FOR THOSE ARRIVING BY TRAIN:

Our most valuable travel tip to offer:
If you have not yet discovered the "Tren Italia" website, go to www.trenitalia.it to check train times, ticket prices, etc. Type in where you will be leaving from (making sure that you use Italian names for cities, e.g. FIRENZE and not FLORENCE) and where you want to arrive (in this case, RIOMAGGIORE). The site will do all of the work for you (including connections, travel times, etc.). All of the best solutions for your travel itinerary will be displayed.

*When you arrive in Riomaggiore, you will need to first come to our office for check-in.

Here are the directions to our office from the Riomaggiore train station:

TIP: If you are arriving by train from La Spezia, keep in mind that Riomaggiore is only an eight minute train ride away (we will be the very first stop). Depending on what train car you are riding in, there is a possibility that when you stop in Riomaggiore you will find yourself inside a tunnel. Double check with other passengers to ensure that you have reached the Riomaggiore stop and then exit the train and proceed to the exposed platform.

-When you exit the Riomaggiore train station, you will find yourself in a small piazza with a fountain and a large mural on the wall to your right.

-Head in the direction of the mural and when you arrive at the tunnel, go through it.

-At the end of the tunnel, the main street of Riomaggiore will be on your left (via Colombo).

-Go up this street approximately 100 yards (about a minute walking).

-Our office is located on the right (just after BAR GIAMMI) at #181 VIA COLOMBO.

Our hours are from 9am to 1pm & 2pm to 5pm (we close for one hour for lunch).

*Please remember that all guests must check-in before we close at 5pm.*
