Superbe île Super logement tout confort et +++ toutes les attentions des propriétaires

We were sad to leave My Home. Just amazing! Elena and Emilio’s location was perfection on Monte Isola and they were and still are after our departure helpful with communicating with our airline on lost luggage.

Die Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich, im Appartement ist alles vorhanden, es ist wirklich sehr gut ausgestattet, und alles ist sehr sauber. Die Lage ist perfekt, nahe am Hafen, aber nicht zu nah. Den Garten haben wir wegen der vielen Mücken leider kaum genutzt. Aber am Seeufer könnten wir schön sitzen.

This was our second visit to My Home in Monte Isola and it was as fabulous as the first. The location is nothing other than perfect, the apartment is comfortable, well equipped and well styled. A calm and relaxing space inside and out. And to top it all the hosts are the most delightful people - always helpful but never intrusive. My previous review of this property said “don’t think about it, just go”. The advice stays the same! Thank you both for a wonderful week.

Wir waren zu viert und hatten an der Wohnung nichts auszusetzen. Es war alles vorhanden, was man benötigt: Eine gut ausgestattete Küche, ein geräumiges Bad inkl. Handtüchern und ein Garten, der zum Entspannen einlädt. Entweder unter den Olivenbäumen oder dem Sonnenschirm. Es sind nur wenige Schritte zum nächsten Fähranleger und man kann direkt vor dem Haus in den See springen, wenn man möchte.

Eine sehr schön eingerichtete Wohnung mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht! Eine gut funktionierende Klimaanlage, die bei den Temperaturen in diesem Sommer sehr hilfreich war! Gute Betten, auch das Schlafsofa! Sehr nette Vermieter, die uns zu Beginn mit Getränken und Obst versorgt haben. Zahlreiche Aktivitäten zu Fuß, mit dem Fahrrad, mit dem Schiff sind direkt von der Wohnung aus möglich. Bezaubernde kleine Ortschaften auf der Insel und auch drumherum. Ein sehr schöner See zum Baden, direkt gegenüber der Wohnung oder auch 200 Meter weiter an der Badestelle! Alles wirklich sehr schön!

Everything was perfect! Elena and Emilio - a lovely couple who go the extra mile to ensure that you have a very special holiday. Their interest in your enjoyment of your holiday is very obvious. My Home - this property has all the comforts of home. It has been put together very tastefully and everything has been thought of. During our two weeks here, we didn't once need anything that wasn't in the house. It is bright, airy and comfortable. The Garden - idyllic! We found it hard to drag ourselves away from it to enjoy all that the island had to offer. As with the house, anything you could wish for, was present here too. Peschiera Maraglio / Monte Isola - a truly beautiful place that we feel privileged to have spent time in. It is a truly beautiful spot that offered many walking opportunities with stunning views. Restaurants, shops etc - we had some very memorable meals within walking distance of the house and all at very reasonable prices. Any day to day food needs were well catered for also in the village. The ferry - super efficient. We bought a very handy weekly ticket. Correspondence prior to our holiday was prompt and gave us confidence that we had made the right choice of accomodation. All in all, we had one of the best holidays ever in this beautiful place. We didn't want the holiday to end and would highly recommend it. We will definitely return!

Location très bien située sur l'île de Monte Isola, face au lac, les photos parlent d'elles même. Superbe cadre. A 5-10min à pied du ferry donc facile de relier Sulzano pour visiter d'autres lieux comme Bergamo (45min voiture) que nous avons pu visiter sur une journée. Maison très propre, moderne, très bien équipée en cuisine. Nous sommes restés 4 nuits avec 2 enfants en bas âge (3 ans et 6 mois). Jeux, chaise haute, lit bébé à disposition. Vélos disponibles pour se balader sur l'île, très sympa en famille (faire juste un peu attention aux scooters qui parfois roulent vite!). A noter que la chambre attenante au salon n'a pas de portes, donc un peu de luminosité le matin et à noter pour coucher les enfants le soir (nous dormions dans le lit canapé). Dans tous les cas super séjour et hôtes très sympas!

A very nice flat, we felt welcome and we liked it very much. Location is great, the flat has everything what you need. We found a fruit basket and a bottle of sparkling wine after arrival. What a nice surprise after few hours traveling.

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt auf der Monte Isola sehr genossen. Nochmals grazie an Emilio und Elena. Das Appartment ist wirklich wunderschön, toll ausgestattet und mit einem traumhaften Blick auf den Iseosee ausgestattet. Hinzu kommt die Freundlichkeit der beiden...toll!

The here is little to say - if you want to relax in beautiful surroundings go and stay! The apartment is an easy space to be in; comfortable, stylish and has everything you want. The owners are happy, helpful and kind. The island is fabulous. Go! Discover the lake and the island. You will love it too !

Für alle Ruhesuchenden, Wasserratten und Italienliebhaber absolut empfehlenswert!!

Zu viert kamen wir auf der schönen Insel an. Runter von der Fähre und einfach 300 m nach links und schon standen wir vor unserem Appartment. Schon der Blick in den Garten bestätigte die Bilder - einfach herrlich! Das Appartment ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und es fehlt an nichts. Eine solch große Auswahl an Geschirr und Küchenutensilien (inkl. Nespressomaschine) hatten wir noch nie. Wir fühlten uns sofort wohl. Das lag auch an der herzlichen Begrüßung von Elena und Emilio. Ein Obstteller, Wein, Wasser und Softdrinks für die Kinder standen schon bereit. Das Elternbett hat sehr gute Matratzen. Für die Kinder stand eine Schlafcouch zur Verfügung. Ein toller Service waren auch die Fahrräder, mit denen man gemütlich die Insel umrunden konnte. Danke an Emilio für den Tip nach rechts zu fahren (an der kleinen Badewiese vorbei). So hat man nur einen (kurzen) Aufstieg. Danke auch an "Nonno" fürs Luftaufpumpen der Fahrräder. Zum Grillen sind wir leider nicht gekommen, aber auch hierfür stand alles zur Verfügung. Kleiner Restauranttip: Trattoria Al Campel - im Ort ein paar Stufen nach oben, dann 200 m nach links und dann wird die kurze Anstrengung mit einem wunderschönem Blick und gutem, ehrlichem Essen belohnt (Fisch und Nudeln- sehr lecker, Vino Frizzante de la casa mhm...). Zurück zum Appartment, vielen Dank an Elena und Emilio für ihre Gastfreundschaft!!! Grazie mille -Veniamo di nuovo! Wenn Sie einmal um Ihre Unterkunft beneided werden wollen, dann wohnen sie hier!

My mother & I visited in May and we had a lovely stay in Elena & Emilio's apartment. They were very welcoming and kindly left some fresh fruit and refreshments for our arrival. The apartment is very modern was equipped with everything you could need & more. It was spotlessly clean and we made good use of the beautiful private garden overlooking the lake. The location is truly magnificent, right on the lake shore and beside the small village of Peschiera Maraglio where there are ample restaurants, cafes & bars. During our stay we used the free bicycles provided & we walked the many trails which cross Monte Isola. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone and hope that we can revisit again.

This is one of those times when a picture is NOT worth 1000 words...you have to see it. Photos do not do justice to this property or area and we cannot say enough nice things about hosts Elena and Emilio. They are very special people and we will always remember them with fondness for going out of their way to help salvage 2 terrible days of traveling with delays, missed flights and missed trains. They, along with their comfortable property with the beautiful view, were the pot of gold at the end of a long and nightmarish rainbow. The apartment has plenty of room and privacy for a couple or a family...we were just 2. It is well appointed with all of the "luxury" items you cannot always expect such as open floor plan, large bathroom with large shower, dishwasher, washing machine...Nespresso can always make a morning easier. The outdoor area of the property is also a great space with comfortable furnishings. The apartment's location makes it easy to hop on a variety of ferries going around the lake and we a couple of day-trips off the island without a car. The walk to the top of Monte Isola, where the Santuario della Madonna della Ceriola is, provides 360 view and is a great way to spend a few hours. There is a bus to Cure (the town just below the sanctuary) and while the remaining hike can still be challenging in the heat...the reward is stunning. There are half a dozen eateries within walking distance which all serve a mix of local dishes made from fresh ingredients from around the area (as well as pizza and some essential Italian dishes). All in all, we felt welcome every where we went. While we cannot stress enough how Elena and Emilio were so kind and considerate, we really were treated warmly by everyone we met. Even though you might expect a small community on a small island in a small lake to be cliquish, the people of Peschiera Maraglio were anything but. We will return and when we do, we hope that Elena and Emilio's apartment is available. We cannot imagine a better place to stay on this beautiful island.

Idéalement située près du port et des restaurants, sans en avoir les inconvénients, cette location jouit d’une magnifique situation face au lac et d’un petit jardin plaisant. Emilio et Elena sont des hôtes bienveillants et discrets tout en étant là au besoin (ils habitent au-dessus). Cet appartement est agencé et décoré avec goût comme en atteste les photos. Tout est récent aussi bien l’immobilier que le mobilier et les accessoires, comme une belle douche spacieuse entièrement neuve (nous l’avons inaugurée). On apprécie la plaque à induction, la cafetière Nespresso, le congélateur, le lave-vaisselle et le lave-linge. Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce petit paradis. La place de parking réservée à Sulzano et les bateaux très réguliers nous ont permis de découvrir les alentours sans difficultés (nous vous conseillons de prendre un abonnement autant pour le stationnement que les ferrys si comme nous vous sortez de l’île régulièrement). Les vélos à dispositions sont une alternative à la découverte à pieds de cette île. Nous avons découvert et apprécié, l’île dans sa globalité et plus particulièrement le sanctuaire au sommet et sa vue à 360°. En dehors de l’île, nous avons découvert des curiosités : les pyramides d’érosion de Zone, les tourbières près de Sarnico et de magnifiques points de vue comme à Santa Maria del Giogo au dessus de Sulzano, et San Defendente près de Lovere.

We started our vaction in the late july 2016 with a travelparty of four people. The island is reachable by a ferry, which shuttle every 15 up to 30 minutes. The ferry need ~5 minutes to island. Parking on the mainland is very easy and Elena reserved us a parking lot for the whole vacation; Parking costs are fair with 6 € per day. The appartment was in a top state, very clean and we felt us very "welcome". Elena and Emilio are kindhearted people who helped us with our questions, they gave us tips for resturants, shopping and also they made a extra vegetable/salami plate for us. The appartment is about 10 meters in front of the waterside. The kitchen is more than proper fitted. Things to do that we recommend: - The island offers beautiful round-courses at the shore for jogging and cycle. - You can hike up the mountain and visit a chapel at the top of the island with a amazing roundview - The island has a lot of resturants and bars - The waterquality is like piped water - On the mainland you can visit Brescia by train - Also a trip to Milano by car The groceries shopping on the island is the only negative point, so we recommend that you grab a stock of groceries in into your luggage. Next years i will come back to this little paradise...

This was the absolute perfect place to stay. Elena and Emilio were gracious hosts and we enjoyed the chance to get to know them. The apartment was beautifully presented and a great cozy place for us to stay. We were there as a family of five which worked out well. Walking out of the door to the view of the lake was incredible as was sitting on chairs on the lawn under a large umbrella watching the world go by. In our case the world was the tens of thousands of people who came to see the Floating Piers every day. Being able to walk out of the gate and step directly onto the exhibit was an absolute kick. One of the best pizza places on the island is literally next door to the right and one of the finest restaurants is three doors down (and a quick uphill walk) on the left (facing the lake). Even with tens of thousands of people it was a couple of minutes to walk downtown to the market and other sites. If you are considering a visit to Lake Iseo you should seriously think about staying on Monte Isola (it is amazing!). If you are going to stay on Monte Isola you should look no further and book this if it is available!!
