Monterosso al Mare or Portovenere
We have three nights on the coast. Should we stay in Monterosso al Mare, possibly Hotel Villa Steno or Portovenere, Hotel Paradiso Hotel or Grand Hotel Portovenere. We don't want a formal spot, something fun with a beautiful view and not hard to find. Thank you.

Hi Trish. Don't know if this matters to you or not, but Monterosso would have easier transportation connections to the four other Cinque Terre towns. Unless I'm mistaken, from Portovenere you have to take a bus to La Spezia, and then a train to the CT towns, or else take the boat to the CT towns whereas, from Monterosso, you can hop right on the train. <BR><BR>I was only in Portovenere for about two hours -- having taken the boat from Monterosso -- but thought it had a very beautiful setting. <BR><BR><BR>Philip, yes, there are boats that connect Portovenere with four of the five Cinque Terre towns (all except Corniglia, the only CT town which is not on the water.)
