Property is fairly far away from the town. Although the property was newish and clean, there were several design flaws, including no place to put shampoo or soap in the showers and no dimmers on the lights in the living room. So you could either be in the dark or in extremely bright lights. Was also surprised they didn’t provide coffee or the basics like paper towels.

Wonderful villa with everything you need. Including heated floors! Had trouble with airconditioning and someone was at the villa immediately. It was easy to find and parking for 2 cars was perfect. We would definitely recommend this villa.

Location excellent - house needs some repaiea
The size of the house and the location worked very well for our group of 8. Menaggio is a terrific location to explore Lake Como. However, there are some significant items to mention that need attention. The basement bedroom is very very musty and damp and that level desperately needs a dehumidifier. The washing machine leaked water on the floor. The sink in the 3rd floor en suite bedroom did not drain at all, and the air conditioner in the top floor twin bedroom leaks all over the floor(we had a pot to gather water) and the ceiling paint and sheetrock in that area are falling off from the moisture - the wall has pink mold. All things that can be repaired but do need repair.

Nice house, zero communication
3 separate times I emailed the company that rents out the house. I tried through the vrbo app and through the company website. Twice was asking weeks before our arrival if the pool would be open as we arrived right before the June 1 pool open date. Last was during our stay regarding the washing machine being broken and if it could be repaired before we left. No response of any kind, and the washer may still be broken for the next guess. But aside from that, house was great. Don't advise walking to Mennagio as the streets are narrow with no sidewalks and the hill is steep.

Great place to stay in Menaggio
Beautiful house overlooking Menaggio and Lake Como. Amazing view. Spacious accommodation with room for up to 10 people on three levels. Only problem we had was with the washing machine which was not working properly but otherwise would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Lake paradise
This property was amazing! With a spectacular view of the lake and easy access to grocery markets it was a perfect spot to relax while having all the lake has to offer within a few minutes drive. My family did not want to leave and I hope some day we can come back, this was a highlight of our trip and I couldn't be happier with the property and the experience. Thank you!

Villa Rosalia
Having returned safely to Roskilde, Denmark, I would like to thank you for the very professional service, you provided us regarding our stay at the Villa Rosalia in Menaggio 2.9 - 12.9. I have been organising one or two abroad stays for our small private cycling club within the last 10 years. And I have to say, that your service have been by far the best. That goes for your quick and thorough assistance, the personal contacts and the highly relevant information you provided us with. I will indeed recommend Happy Holiday Homes, whenever anybody ask me for advice on booking houses for vacations.

Hi Happy Holiday Homes Team – (including Carla, Karin, Lydia, Tamarra, and Elisa)
This is in reference to our stay this summer in Villa Rosalia in Menaggio from Jun 23-30.
Our one week stay on Lake Como was a gathering of our California and Australian family for my husband’s 75th birthday, my son’s 40th birthday and as it turned out – for my son’s engagement to his lovely Australian fiancé on June 23rd. Our Villa Rosalia in Menaggio was a perfect choice as we could spread the group of 8 over three floors with bathrooms for every bedroom, lots of privacy and a quiet space room of her own for my two year old granddaughter to sleep without being disturbed. The air-conditioning was great, the views were fantastic and the outdoor space with the little pool and lovely furnishings gave way to many wonderful family meals.
I can’t say enough about the efficiency and genuine concern of the Happy Holiday Homes staff. They were a huge help when we had to delay our booking due to a new job conflict situation at home during the planning stage. They were in touch with us on arrival so the transition in was easy. After leading us up the hill from the central office, they provided a thorough introduction to the villa with surprise supplies and goodies provided. Elisa Rava ensured through her reservation for us that we had the perfect table for our celebration night on the lake at Il Ristorante de Paolo. We were delighted that the meal and service were just perfect. The excellent dinner was followed with a surprise concert in the next piazza (ok for the town – not just us!) which really rounded off our evening – declared by everyone as “magical”, enjoyed immensely by my granddaughter as she danced throughout every number and my husband who said “best night ever!”
Other than our really comfy stay at Villa Rosalia we also enjoyed a food and wine tasting tour in Varenna, a day trip by ferry to Bellagio (great place to shop, have drinks at the elegant Hotel Serbelloni and lunch at the waterfront Metropole), and especially two self drive boat rentals on the lake from Menaggio that seemed to top everyone’s list of fun! Villa Carlotta in Tremezzo is a must see.
My advice if you are coming into Milan Airport is to rent a car there as it’s an easy drive to Menaggio and very helpful to get up and down to the lake and for buying groceries in the big supermarket in town (Conad City) or from the Carrefore just over the hill in Switzerland. Parking for 3 cars was a little tricky but do-able and the house is very secure.
We reviewed several companies and many villas before choosing Villa Rosalia in charming Menaggio from Happy Holiday Homes and I am convinced this was the best decision for a family vacation villa we could have made. Menaggio is the perfect spot on Lake Como as it is so central to the lake, has wonderful restaurants and amenities and is a key ferry port. Everything is here, the villas are all lovely with Rosalia just beautiful and great value compared to others. I will be forever grateful to all the staff at Happy Holiday Homes who made our stay so memorable and perfect.
Thanks so much to you all for making it such a great time!
