About this apartment rental
The "Fiorella" apartment is located up in the hills above Stresa (about 250 m) and has panoramic views over Lake Maggiore and the surrounding countryside and mountains. It is surrounded by a large, fenced garden and is only 1 km (5 minutes in the car, about 10 minutes' walk downhill) from the bustling town centre of Stresa. The location is very peaceful and quiet.
Stresa is 42 km (less than an hour) from Milan-Malpensa airport. From the end of March to the end of September there is a bus service called "Alibus" which takes you directly from Malpensa airport to Stresa. Alternatively, a taxi can be arranged for you (120 Euros single).
Its railway station connects you easily with Milan (45 mins fast train), where you can shop, sightsee, or simply sip a coffee and watch the world go by in the majestic Piazza del Duomo.
Stresa is the most popular tourist destination on Lake Maggiore and it's not hard to see why. With its beautiful lakeside promenade dotted with grand Belle Époque hotels and villas, its sunny beach and outdoor swimming pool (Lido Carciano), its delicious restaurants and little shops, many selling local products, its mountain walks and lake sports, there is something for everyone.
The town faces the famous Borromeo Islands of Isola Bella and Isola Pescatori so just hop on any ferry to discover the enchanting beauty of Lake Maggiore, its fascinating villas along the shore, the Piedmont towns of Arona and Intra and the picturesque town of Laveno nestled on the other side of the lake in Lombardy. You can even take a full-day boat tour all the way up the lake to Switzerland (Ascona and Locarno).
Less than an hour's drive away are the ski slopes and nature trails of the Mottarone mountain.
The Fiorella apartment has free Wi-Fi/Internet. Air-conditioning in all the rooms and heating are also included in the price. Garage and parking at the property (+ EV-charging point). On the terrace (30m2), you also have a power point to charge electric bikes.
The apartment is on the 2nd floor and there is a lift.
The bright, spacious living room (25m2) has been stylishly furnished and has a double pull-down Murphy bed (200 x 160 cm) which can comfortably sleep two people (this is a proper bed and not a sofa bed), smart TV and a fully-equipped open-plan kitchen (dishwasher, microwave combi oven kettle, toaster, fridge/freezer, electric coffee-machine) and dining table and chairs. It opens out onto a large terrace (30m2) with table and chairs, sofa and armchairs, where you can eat outside and enjoy the fabulous views over Lake Maggiore.
There is 1 double bedroom (or twin-bedded room). The bedroom opens out onto the terrace (30m2) and has a lake view. It has 1 bathroom with large shower and bidet.
There is a separate utility room with washing machines, dryer and iron + ironing board on the ground floor of the residence for the guests to use.
The listed price is for 2 people; for each additional person it is 25 Euros per day, plus VRBO commission.
The apartment can sleep up to 4 people.
Please note there is the Holiday Tax (Tassa di Soggiorno) of 1 Euro per person per day, children under 6 excluded, to pay on arrival (in cash).
A dog is welcome (15 Euros per day plus VRBO commission).

We really enjoyed our stay in apartment 6. The property manager was very helpful, helping me with a car problem on arrival, and he kindly upgraded us to an apartment with two bedrooms.Although the apartment was very clean, well presented, reasonably well equipped and comfortable, it was disappointing that, due to it being north facing, there was never any sun on the balcony, the view from which was fantastic. It also lacked basics I'd expect to find in a self-catering apartment such as foil and cling film. The laundry room was a great addition, with two washing machines, a tumble dryer, clothes airers, and an iron and ironing board.I feel that the charge for the dog was high, considering you wouldn't know he'd even been there and he makes no mess, unlike small children who are accepted for free.Being in a mid floor apartment meant noise from above was an issue, with scraping furniture and footsteps.If I returned, I'd ask for a top floor apartment to the south, where there's a possibility of seeing some sun.Free onsite parking is found in the garages below the properties.

A beautiful apartment with magnificent views over the lake. Everything spotlessly clean, plenty of towels. Location is quiet and a 10 minute (steep) walk into Stresa (15 minutes coming back uphill ). Guiliano is on hand to help if needed. Check in was easy with very quick communication with both Chantal and Guiliano. Good internet service via WIFI. Would highly recommend.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful apartment. The view is unmatched anywhere in Stresa! The location is unrivaled for walking into the heart of town, the lakefront & grocery store. Our host, Giuliano, was very accommodating & helpful. We will return & recommend to others.

A clever architect came up with a great design for this apartment building where each unit has a private balcony due to use of angles. We were in Apartment #1 and spent most of our time on our balcony gazing at the incredible view of Lago Maggiore and its islands. The apartment was spotless and it was great to have parking. The shared laundry was an added bonus. The manager Giuliano was helpful. We were quite happy with our stay.
