Marvelous Lake Destination eco-friendly villa

Beautiful view. Excellent location. Right on Lake Como

Beautiful property!! We had everything we needed and more! We enjoyed the indoor pool and outdoor jacuzzi every day! The views were spectacular and we enjoyed sitting outside every evening with a glass of wine. We would would definitely come back! Cristina was amazing!

This was our first trip to Lake Como and we didn’t know exactly what to expect, but I feel like we won the lottery by choosing this villa. If you can believe it, the villa, the rooms, the views and the lake are all even more beautiful than the pictures. And it’s perfectly located between Brienno and Argegno, which makes it convenient to Como as well as to the public ferries to Bellagio and elsewhere. The property manager, Cristina, was amazing. She was so communicative and very helpful. She met us on arrival to give us a personal walkthrough and responded quickly to any questions we had during our stay. This villa is ON the lake and the modern, open design offers spectacular vistas at every turn. One older review mentioned the AC, but they must have remedied that issue because we had crisp, cool air in every room. I highly recommend this property to even the most discerning travelers! We’ll be back!

The villa is stunning in design and equipment. Unfortunately, it is quite out of the way of the major towns of the region. While bus is available, one must walk on the shoulder of the busy highway to get to it. Boat service is only by private hire (and exorbitantly expensive). Chris gave a lovely tour that included the indoor pool, jacuzzi, treadmill, and recumbent bike. Unfortunately, she was not familiar with the outdoor jacuzzi, and while she gave instructions for the stove, they proved insufficient (we spent 90 minutes trying to cook eggs for breakfast, unaware that the burners would shut off if all burners were used at the same time). She was kind and prompt at responding to questions and even came to the villa to problem solve. There was no hot water in the master. She initially gave us instructions suspecting we were not understanding, but then came the next day and told us a plumber would be called. The plumber came the following day, but needed a part. They thought they would not be able to fix it on a weekend, but ultimately were able to fix it the following day. Unfortunately, that was the afternoon before we left. The views are quite beautiful and if your goal is to stay in the villa, this one is spectacular. Everyone was quite kind. They provide little soaps (but no soap dishes and waste baskets only in half the bathrooms, for unclear reasons). Beds are made with only sheets (no blankets or comforters, although a few blankets can be found in some of the closets). Driveway is a little difficult to negotiate.
