Surely this must be one of the best locations to stay at Lake Como. The owners are very professional and the house is very clean. The property is stunning, the location is extemely convenient as its very close to the lake and you also get to have the amazing terrace with an incredible view (you only have to climb up a some steps). No need to worry if you drive a car as the parking place is nearby. Carate Urio is very nice and quiet, so if you are looking for something similar, this is the place. I cannot recommend the property enough. Many thanks to the owners for operating everything in such a professional and organized way. I hope I will return to Il Volo very soon.

We enjoyed a most lovely Lake Como vacation with our stay at IL VOLO! Our villa was divine; perfect location to do everything on the lake. Very large, decorated with antiques, each family member enjoyed a separate bedroom with private bath, making getting ready for adventures so much easier! The huge 'cave' living room is very special, built into the mountainside to remain a perfect cool temperature, with controllable cool air vents in the cave walls; it's own natural air conditioning! The deck is expansive, with deck loungers, tables, chairs, umbrellas for sun and GLORIOUS VIEWS! You'll enjoy lovely breakfasts and evening dinners with BIG VIEWS! The location worked out to be surprisingly ideal. The ferry stop is a few minutes walk from the villa. We rented a car, however you can fly into Milan, train to Como, take a lovely boat ride to the house. You just need to be VERY aware of boat times that arrive at URIO, your stop, for all adventures around the lake. We took the boat to Bellagio, Varenna, Torno and so many little beautiful villages as well as the major sites of Villa Carlotta, Villa D'este, all nearby. There are two lovely restaurants very near the villa. You can get food from the large grocery store, a drive away, for dining in, but know you always have excellent dining options just outside your door. We are big swimmers, and IL VOLO is THE place to be. There is a swimming spot directly across the street for quick jumps in the lake, and many convenient access spots to enter the lake along the road. Curate Urio beach club in front of the church is simply magic, and a very short walk from the villa. Lovely grass area, friendly locals, food, beverages, loungers...we enjoyed endless swims in the warm water with afternoon prosecco's on the lawn. Truly unique, compliments of our hosts. When you arrive at the villa, you walk up cobblestone steps to your home. After your holiday you will be in shape! It is doable for most guests, but probably best to avoid for anyone with walking difficulties. Most notable was the kindness and attentiveness of our hosts, Paolo and Laura. They ensure everything is so well organized, answer all questions timely, and are simply delightful people!! They provide excellent resources for sites around the area. The perfect hosts!! Thank you Paolo and Laura, we hope to see you again soon. Il Volo is a wonderful villa, Curate Urio is a very special place and we are so glad we happened upon it.
