Casa Maria Menaggio

The apartment has been recently renovated and has many wonderful touches. More than enough space for a family of 4 and it is well appointed. The managers have gone out of their way to make sure is you need it, it’s likely there. AC works GREAT! Furniture and beds are amazingly comfortable. Rain fall shower head was delightful. Closets all had hangers. Lots of outlets to include close to the bed which was great for medical devices and charging your phone. Welcome package with water, milk, snacks and wine was a big hit with everyone !! The location to downtown, restaurants and the ferry is wonderful! Easily walkable. Short walk to the mini golf, pool and beach area for family fun! Supermarket is close but closed on Sundays and Mondays. Apartment is also close to where you pick up the keys which is a plus. The management team is very communicative and sends clear, concise and timely instructions.

Not everything was as advertised. The front door to the location is on a very busy street and there is no sidewalk in front of the door - you are standing on the street next to a red light to open the door. Crossing to get there is also at a literally blind 90 degree - it is high adventure and the traffic is non-stop. If we had young kids, I would have been very concerned. The parking is non existent- the add shows a P for parking but it’s only because parking exists in the city. This is complicated by the fact that you can’t drive up to the room and off load luggage based on location and traffic. You really can end up with quite a walk lugging all your stuff and then have to carry it up 4 flights of stone steps. The add also shows balcony and garden chairs. No balcony chairs and we ever did find the garden where my daughter was hoping to hang out and tan and if the place i found was it, it was scary over grown. Only other complaint was that it has a coffee pot that took pods but didn’t have any pods. A few to get is going would be great - especially since the supermarket was closed Sunday and Monday so we had no option to go buy any. For $500 a day, a couple of pods wouldn’t kill anyone :)

Spacious and clean apartment in a fantastic location.

The apartment is just besides the main road and the traffic noise could be audible even late into the night, particularly from the motorbikes revving their engines.

The location was perfect for us, so close to everything. The apartment had everything we needed and the view of the lake from the balcony and master bedroom was breathtaking. It was very modern and had all the amenities we needed for our stay.

If you’ve got small children or are not very mobile the apartment is up about 4 flights of stairs but that’s how you get the wonderful views. The apartment also opens up onto a road with no pavement but that’s didn’t affect us as we didn’t have any young children.

The location was right near the bus stop and very close to the ferry dock. The apartment was clean and had a wonderful kitchen. The bathrooms were large and the bedrooms were of a great size too. The door was hard to open and there isn’t a lift. The property was on the third floor.

There were metal shelves above the kids beds that had sharp corners. These are a safety hazard.
