THE VIEW PRIVACY sharing pool The whole space is so peaceful & calm

Just wish if there was some official service we can order to pick & drop from the apartment ( the staff was very helpful when we need the gulf car ) but i wish it was an official service because u will need it alot if u have someone older with u or someone can’t walk on winding road

Our stay in Varenna was nothing short of spectacular, thanks to this incredible place. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found a true gem. The pictures really don’t do the place justice - it’s unbelievably stunning. The place is located up a windy road but there is a more direct footpath from the stay down to Varenna. It takes around 15/20 minutes to get down and around 25/30 to get back up. The path is steep but we often walked down and got a taxi back up later in the day / evening - only walking back up maybe 2/3 times. The walk down and up is do-able but if you had any difficulty walking it may be advisable to hire a car as I know many people had done. However, the views from the hotel are absolutely breathtaking, rivalling those of many villa gardens in the area. Each morning, we were greeted with stunning panoramas that made our stay truly magical. We enjoyed sitting having a morning coffee or evening drink listening to music overlooking the mountain and flowers - truly breathtaking, very romantic and without question the most beautiful place I’ve stayed. The staff were amazing and exceptionally friendly, always going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. They provided us with some amenities to get us by as we did arrive a little late. The coffee was amazing! Varenna itself is so beautiful, it’s everything you want from Lake Como, the views, the food, the romantic walks, Gelato - it’s very easy to get to neighbouring towns - highly highly recommend this place.

Nothing - amazing!

The views across lake Como from the elevated position were unforgettable and made for the perfect romantic setting. The house was beautifully presented, spacious, clean and well equipped. The pools were clean and a welcome way to cool off on the hotter days. Nearby Varenna is a delightful town with several good places to eat and drink, bustling with people making for a great ambience. The steep walk from Varenna to the property at Vezio was a challenge but it helped preserve the tranquility by keeping the crowds away. The service team led by Stefano and Giovanna were delightful and very helpful.

For a couple of days there was a group of noisy residents playing loud music around the swimming pool.

The setting is beautiful, located a 5 minute walk to the castle. The facilities were really good, a large swimming pool, tennis/football court, table tennis and seating areas in the gardens overlooking the stunning views in a quiet setting. The apartment was a really good size with everything we needed & the bread/milk/cornflakes/jams was a lovely touch and needed as there are no shops nearby. The staff were really lovely & helpful too.

Nothing about the property itself but if you haven’t got a car which we didn’t, the walk back from Varenna is exceptionally steep and cobbled, the walk down is about 15 minutes but you have to be careful as the cobbles can be a bit slippery & not many hand rails. We often used a taxi for approximately €15-20.

The view is absolutely incredible. It is one of the loveliest Villas we have ever stayed at. Our house was also very comfortable, equipped with everything we needed. The staff was very helpful and easily reachable by phone.

We loved everything! This has nothing to do with the Villa, but I recommend a mosquito repellent as there are a lot of mosquitos in the area generally.

This place is amazing, with an old family house, yet that has all the necessary amenities in it. The kitchen has everything you will need, and the table is next to a window facing the Como lake. They also have an amazing garden that you can explore, and its also pretty instagrammable. The hosts were really friendly and helpful with any queries that we had during our stay.

If you are arriving to varenna with your backpacks - do not go by foot. Take a taxi, because the location is on a hill that is pretty tough to climb with your backpacks on. I wouldnt put that as a minus for the house, but rather something the tourists should know.

Beautiful view!

Not easy to order a taxi (perhaps it is easier to find one in the train station). The property is located on the top of the mountain. We had to climb the steep pebble roads most of time when we went to the town center. It would be challenging for older people.

Perhaps the best travel experience of our lives. We loved absolutely everything. To wake up with exceptional views, to have the peace and tranquillity of the gardens, away from the crowds, with the best view of Lago di Como. The view never grew old. We sat for hours, with a glass of wine, watching the boats, the clouds, the water. Gorgeous Stefano and Giovanna were always there to assist. Kitchen is well set up too. A local restaurant in Vezio, 100m away was cute and served coffee/drinks/local dishes. We also had a delicious lunch/coffees/drinks at the castle entrance. We didn’t have a car, so used the steep path, which is a good workout after the pastries in Varenna. There are taxis about, but we needed to book one to get to the train.

This property is a very unique experience. The cottage we rented was beautifully decorated and very modern. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was beautifully done in the formal dining room overlooking the lake. The property is very beautiful. The grounds are kept up and maintained by very attentive and talented staff.

I felt the mattress should be replaced. My back is very sensitive however so I often have trouble with mattresses. Also we really would have liked a daily cleaning and towel replacement daily for the price that we paid.

LOVED this gorgeous property on the hill! It’s a peaceful sanctuary away from the crowded streets in Varenna below. Stunning!! Only noise was really the chickens. The staff was so kind and Stefano was so helpful, going above & beyond for us! Would 100% stay here again.

Only complaint would be the beds are very stiff. Not the coziest sleep ever.
