Cadenabbia Lake side Apartments

Location and view of the lake. Proximity to ferry landing. Lovely light and well equipped kitchen.

Furniture could have been a bit more comfortable.

Beautiful views, nice studio apartment that had everything you’d need.

Shutters let in a lot of light early in the morning so waking up early. Some curtains would be better to keep light out. Only one pillow each, would be better if more pillows were provided for the bed.

Lake view and terrace. Bottle of Prosecco on arrival.

Would have helped to have tea and coffee

The view and location

While the view from this apartment is undoubtedly stunning and easily the highlight of the stay, unfortunately, the rest of the experience was quite disappointing. The apartment is very outdated and lacks basic comfort features—most notably, air conditioning. Only two small fans were provided, which barely circulated air, making it extremely difficult to sleep in the middle of summer. I reached out about this and was told someone would “speak to the owners,” but this didn’t inspire much confidence—especially as the brochure stated hosts would be available for any issues, which wasn’t the case in our experience. There were also several basic amenities missing. For four guests over two nights, we were provided only one toilet roll, one towel per person, and one pillow each. When we requested more toilet paper, we received no response and had to go out and purchase our own. If you want any extras like additional towels or pillows, you’re expected to pay. As someone who rarely complains and relies heavily on reviews when booking, I feel it’s important to share this feedback. We’ve been travelling Italy for three weeks using Booking.com and, sadly, this was the most disappointing stay—especially considering the location and potential of the property in such a beautiful part of Lake Como.

Apartment clean and great view. Easy check in

We absolutely loved the place. It’s located directly across from the lake with an amazing view from the terrace. The place was very clean and spacious for Italy. Communication with the host was very easy and helpful. We would definitely come back and recommend this place to others.

The stay at the Airbnb was very good. the communication before was fast and easy, the keys to the apartment were stored in a lockbox with a code, so very easy entry. the apartment was clean, beds super comfortable and it had everything you needed. 2 bedrooms, 3 beds, 2 singles and one double, so perfect for 4 people, small living room, kitchen and one bathroom. the view from the terrace was just breathtaking, right at the lake. I would definitely come back and stay there again.

one small light in the kitchen was not working, but was taken care of. the apartment is right next to the main street, so there is some traffic during the day and early evening. but with earplugs it's fine. overall nothing to complain.

Very clean and beds comfortable…convenient to restaurants and shops! Beautiful views of lake como from the terrace!

Taking trash out is not convenient.
