The location is absolutely amazing, especially for a family with young kids. A house with a yard and pool that is directly on the lake is unbeatable

If you are looking to explore towns like Belaggio and Varenna, it’s a bit trickier from this location.

The whole experience was fantastic. The location is incredible with the villa right on the waters edge and the home was better in reality than pictured online. We hired a boat a couple of times and found it very convenient to moor the boat on the dock outside (We are planning to return in the Summer, to see the lake in its full glory!) It was our first visit to Como and found Autumn on the lake was like a picture postcard with all the beautiful colours on the mountains. The host Alina gave many recommendations and couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay like a local. Sigma supermarket was only a few minutes from the villa, as well as some cosy restaurants and cafe bars (quiet in November; just as we like as we were able to get a local feel for the lake away from tourists)

Nothing to dislike, a perfect getaway break.
