June 2017 This is one of the best houses ever!! We had a group of 13 and had plenty of space. 7 kids all 12 and over, and this was perfect. Every place you look has stunning views- especially if you make the trek to the very top of the little casita at the top of the property. (I will add- that if you have limited mobility- this will be a very difficult house for you to maneuver in. ) I can't even imagine how many pictures I have taken from all over the property. It's built up the hillside, so you have very different views from all over the place. The pool was very fun for the kids (too cold for me in early June) but they loved it. We had pouring rain a couple of days and the house came with a few umbrellas which were very appreciated. There is also a ping pong table that the kids enjoyed in the evenings. Our biggest problem was choosing which veranda to have our coffee on!! Happy Holidays had A bottle of Prosecco, milk, Nescafe' coffee, tea, and a package of croissants sitting out for our arrival. That was incredibly helpful to get us started. Now, let me tell you about the location- if there was an option for a 6th star, the location would get it!! The home sits above the Hotel Brittanica- which happens to be the very first hotel established on Lake Como. So the little town of Cadenabbia is right below us with a ferry that goes regularly to Bellagio. You can basically get anywhere on the lake from Bellagio. The best deal is to buy the all day pass for the ferry- then just hop around the towns. It's an easy walk down the hill to the ferry (back up the hill and stairs..... little harder!) close to the bottom of the road is a small store- it has just about everything you need. Very convenient. Also- the house is very well equipped. The beds are comfortable. A/C in almost every bedroom (the temp really drops at night, so that wasn't an issue), plenty of cups, plates, etc. large dining table and outside dining area. The furniture is a tad on the older side, but very comfortable. But rave reviews for the functionality and location of this property. We hope to come back again soon!!!” Gina, Australia
