La Terrazza di Vico Olivi B&B

I hope that many people can read this comment to take it into consideration before booking. The owner is a racist. So if you are not Italian, you are not welcome in this place, you should know that because I have been told so. Basically, I had my reservation made and he called me to confirm my arrival time. After a completely normal call, the man (Claudio) called me back, by mistake, and he started to criticise me, apparently the man hates people who speak Spanish, so he decided that I was a, quote, "South American cretin", funny Claudio's ignorance, as I am Spanish. But anyway, that's obviously the least of it, I don't understand how a racist and incompetent person like him can have or work in a public-facing place that is surely full of "non-Italian" people who come to visit his town... Anyway, worst experience ever. Please go somewhere else and don’t give a penny to someone like that. Raquel

I absolutely loved the La Terrazza di Vico Olivi B&B! My room was a little apartment with everything that I needed. The B&B was centrally located to everything, and Allamen(?), the young man that took care of me, was a sweetie. Breakfast was delicious, and on-time every morning. The Old Town surrounding the B&B is charming. I would highly recommend. My only warning would be if you have problems navigating stairs, this may be a no-go. There are pretty steep stairs going up to the breakfast area. Other than that,…it’s a delight!

This is a fantastic b&b high up in Ventimiglia old town with spectacular views of the new town below. The bedrooms are on multiple levels accessed through communal areas. The decor is rich and quirky and unique with superb old wooden floors and rough stone walls. Breakfast is held at the long table in the main common area. Fruit/ pastries/ breads/ cheeses/ cold meats -all very fresh - and very good coffee. We enjoyed meeting and chatting with the other guests at the table in the morning. I highly recommend this b&b. Staying there is an unforgettable experience. I have two 'be aware of's' - 1/ We arrived late (2320) and were welcomed by Alamin who was very generous with his time and showed us around. However there is a late fee of €20 if you arrive after 2200. It is mentioned in the booking page but in an area you might overlook in your eagerness to book. 2/ The b&b is in the heart of the old town. The streets are narrow and there is very little on-street parking. Our host Claudio offered us off-street parking for an extra €20 but we took a chance and got lucky finding a space beside the cathedral plaza (which is very close to the b&b and very beautiful.) Even if you have to pay those extra costs we think the price for staying in this quite remarkable building is very reasonable and we feel privileged to have stayed here. We highly recommend it to fellow travellers.

We had our secnod stay here based on our amazing experience last September,. It is in the heart of old Ventimiglia a few hundred meters away from restaurants and bars. Very cosy, friendly and romantic accommodation, neat and nice room and excellent breakfast.
