Hidden gem in Varenna. This 2bdrm apartment is amazing and has incredible views. There is one spot where you can look out of opposite windows and see the lake from both ❤️. Wonderfully comfortable setup with the balcony, kitchen and living room downstairs, and 2 bedrooms upstairs. There is a lockbox and security gate, for entry, and a 3 floor climb. Located just 100 ft from the town center, everything in town is within walking distance. Wonderful location, wonderful apartment and beautiful views. Whether there for family or vacation, this is an ideal alternative to a hotel, if you would like the added privacy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return for another.

Great property with all the amenities & perfect location! Very clean & comfortable! Great welcoming package! To be forewarned, there is no full length mirrors, only one mirror above the bathroom sink. Other than that, it’s a perfect place to stay when you visit Varenna!

Very nice apartment if you are comfortable with 3rd floor stairs and another story in the unit. Location is incredible. Nice welcome basket with wine, comfortable bedding. Could have paid more attention to detail like providing the wifi password, dish towels and hot pads etc.

This property is in a fantastic location in Varenna. My only suggestions would be in improve communications. Providing information about Wifi and password as well as how to operate the electronic gate and front door would have been very useful. Also 24 h phone contact number does not get answered.

Property was bare bones. Nice stairwell ,floors, quality built building. There was No soap for dishwasher no paper towels and bare minimum kitchen supplies. There was a heat wave in lake Como and the two upstairs bedrooms were uninhabitable due to the temperature. The host provided fans but they were insufficient. I do not recommend this place if the temperature in Como is over 27° during the day. Spring fall winter would stay here again.

Locatie is top; groot apartement op perfecte locatie
Locatie is top; groot apartement op perfecte locatie
Fijn apartement met 2 slaapkamers met 2 eenpersoons bedden. Helaas zijn de slaapkamers op zolder en was het warm; er is geen airconditioning en dat mis je echt als het 36 gr C is. Ook is het inchecken erg onpersoonlijk; de beschrijving foto’s zijn duidelijk, maar t komt erg onpersoonlijk over. Ook kan je niet met auto voor de deur komen en is er geen lift; dus beter niet een zware koffer meenemen. Het huis ligt wel perfect centraal met een leuk restaurant eronder (prato). Het balkon viel een beetje tegen, want daar kan je eigenlijk niet opzitten met meer dan een.
