Beautiful cottage on the lake - private lake access and beautiful views

The best house we have ever stayed in. The design is stunning, with large windows offering a breathtaking view of the lake and mountains. The air is clean, and everything you need is nearby. We especially want to highlight the cleanliness of the house and the kitchen equipment—everything we could think of was available. The host was very nice, always in touch, and pleasant to communicate with. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay. We are ready to return many times!

We had a great time. The house has everything you could want, the place is beautiful and so is the nearby village. The host was very helpful at all times. The only sad thing was that at some point, we had to leave. Would stay longer next time ;-)

This is a lovely, very well equipped and perfectly designed house, located in one of the most beautiful spots in the world: on a little cove on Lake Lugano with a backdrop of the Italian and Swiss Alps. What could be better than a swim in the lake, some family time and games lakeside, with a break for a delightful Italian meal in one of the many spots nearby? Answer: nothing, nothing could be better. The beauty is spectacular: one of our teens described it as swimming in front of a green screen, the beauty was so unreal. Regina was a wonderful host -- easy to reach, knowledgeable of the area, and attentive to ensuring the house was well-stocked and prepared. There is a small grocer, two bars, pizza and gelatto within a few minutes walk -- along with a fantastic high end family restaurant. What more do you need? The region offers hiking, watersports, and easy access to Lake Como for a visit (but you'll want to return to low key Lugano quickly....) The town of Porlezza is about 5-10 mins away, and has large grocery stores, patisseries, great restaurants, etc. The house itself is laid out to provide for great family and friend time -- we had lots of charades and card games etc. The dock into the lake is where we spent most of our time -- on our way to the refreshing, crystal clear waters of the lake! All in all, just a fabulous house with a supportive and engaged host in a spectacular part of the world. We very much hope to visit again.

Amazing house and idílica place, Thank you Regina.

Our stay in this extraordinary waterfront property in Osteno-claino, Lombardia, Italy was simply magical. This house captivated us from the moment we arrived, boasting a unique location directly on the shores of Lake Lugano. The highlight was the direct lake access from the house's backyard and private pier. Our entire family relished in the delight of jumping into the serene lake, and the backyard quickly became our tranquil oasis, offering breathtaking views of the expansive lake and the majestic mountains surrounding it. The thoughtfully designed house left no stone unturned, with meticulous attention to detail visible in every corner. Every room was thoughtfully crafted to offer a view of the lake, creating an ever-present connection with nature. The ground floor rooms, each having their own exit to the backyard, brought the beautiful outdoors just a few steps away. The modern, fully equipped kitchen, complete with a modern coffee machine and spacious fridge, made self-catering a breeze, while the multiple shower rooms added to the overall convenience. Beyond the property, the local area didn't disappoint either, with a plethora of excellent Italian restaurants that tantalized our taste buds. Two standout eateries were "Osteria de Cin" and "Antico Crotto". The rich, delicious flavors of Italian cuisine at these restaurants complemented our lakeside experience, making our Italian vacation all the more memorable. In conclusion, this property exceeded all expectations

excellent house with direct lake acsess, easy check-in/out, lovely place
