We had a lovely stay in Stressa, a beautiful place on Lake Maggiore. We were made most welcome by Noelly at the spacious apartment with a wonderful view of the Lake.

Fantastic views. The property is spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. However, a car is a MUST. It's 2 kilometers to town by the short cut, and there are no stores, laundromat, or even buses. Must get taxi, 10 euros each way. We had no wifi for a whole week. We were totally isolated. Couldn't reach the owner or the caretaker. My daughter-in-law had to call the caretaker from London to ask her to come and do something about the wifi, and finally the caretaker (who was a very nice lady), hooked us up with the neighbor's internet. She spoke no English, so thankfully I was able to communicate with her in French. For the first week, all the towels and bed linen smelled of mildew. The replacement bed linen for the second week was so coarse and rough that we couldn't sleep. The tiles in the bathroom is mottled and busy, so not easy to see that it was dirty. I had towels on the floor to walk on, and the towels would get quite dirty. When I told the caretaker, she indicated that we (my mother and I) had been there for two weeks so it was to be expected!! and her attitude was that I was complaining too much. There is also no English tv to watch (all in Italian or German), except for a five minute news headline which is repeated over and over on France 24. We have rented properties in a few other countries, and this is the first review I have ever written. I certainly feel that the cleaning fee should be returned. But we loved Stresa. Everyone was very kind, the food was excellent and so was the sightseeing.
Die Wohnung liegt oberhalb des Sees und bietet neben gemütlicher Ausstattung einen schönen Blick auf dem See vom Balkon.
Wir kamen mit dem Zug (3 Erwachsene und 3 Kinder) und haben uns ein Taxi zur Unterkunft genommen. Ins Zentrum von Stresa läuft man etwa 15 min bergab ( teilweise etwas an der befahrenen Straße, dann aber wieder durch malerische Gassen. Bergan ist eine kleine Herausforderung, da es steil an geht, aber auch machbar. Wir sind jeden Tag gelaufen. In Stresa gibt es viele Möglichkeiten etwas zu unternehmen und auch zu baden. Stresa ist ein wirlich hübscher Ort. Die Verwalterin hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen und obwohl es hieß, dass sie nur Italienisch und Französisch spricht konnten wir uns auf Englisch und den Paar Brocken Französcisch gut verständigen.
Wlan konnten wir auch nutzen. Alles war zu unserer höchsten Zufriedenheit. Wir können die Wohnung nur empfehlen.

Dejligt sted, fantastisk natur omgiver søen. Byen er ikke kæmpe stor, men gode spisesteder og indkøbs muligheder. Er man på slanke kur er der gode muligheder for at gå på bakker, med op til 20 procents stigning

The property was beautiful and spacious, with a lovely balcony overlooking the lake. The host had left some information regarding nearby restaurants, activities and taxi services which was all very useful. The location was also great, as it was a short walk to the town centre, and just over an hour to get to Milan. The apartment overall was wonderful, and made the stay in Stresa extremely enjoyable.
Spacious family apartment with three bedrooms overlooking Lago Maggiore in the North of Italy. Wake up to the singing of birds, dine al fresco on the terrace or simply relax and enjoy the vast views over the largest Italian lake and the Swiss alps. The area boasts 2 of the top golf courses of northern Italy, horse back riding and of course water sports. The closest ski resort is about one hour away.
The building is located in a village just on top of Stresa a bustling tourist town that is one of the major attractions and stops at Lago Maggiore.
The apartment is on the 3rd (top floor) walk-up in a residential building from the 1960s and was renovated in 2008. It has one in-suite bedroom, a master bedroom with access to the terrace and a third bedroom set up to accommodate up to three kids or a couple. There is a bicycle/storage room on the entrance level and 2 spots for parking along the building. The area is safe and quiet, there is a small playground nearby. Car recommended but it is possible to walk down to the center of town in 15 minutes.
