The beautiful Park Villa Pallavicino and two local beaches are a 15-minute drive away and there are two restaurants within a 3-minute\' walk from the apartment one of which doubles as a small shop during the summer season.

For golfers, Golf Club Alpino di Stresa is a 10-minute drive and Golf Des Iles Borromees is an 8-minute drive. The nearby Mottarone mountain also provides a popular destination offering panoramic views across the Lake, visitors can take a cable car ride to the summit and enjoy hiking and skiing.

The nearest international airport is Milan Malpensa (MXP), approximately a 42-minute drive from the accommodation.

Die Wohnung ist an sich schön, schlicht-modern eingerichtet und der Ausblick vom Balkon auf den See ist wirklich atemberaubend – definitiv das Highlight.Leider gab es aber mehrere gravierende Punkte, weshalb wir die Wohnung im aktuellen Zustand nicht weiterempfehlen können. Vor allem die Sauberkeit war enttäuschend: Staub- und Spinnenweben in vielen Ecken, eine verdreckte Kaffeemaschine, ungeputzte Schubladen, verschmutzte Küchenfronten, Asche vom Vorgänger im Grill und allgemein vieles, was lange nicht gründlich gereinigt wurde. Wir mussten zuerst selbst putzen, um uns halbwegs wohlzufühlen.Das Badezimmer ist extrem klein. Man kann sich kaum bewegen, sitzt auf der Toilette sehr beengt und der Einstieg in die Dusche ist sehr schmal. Das war auf den Online-Bildern so nicht erkennbar.Auch die Küchenausstattung ist teils stark abgenutzt: verkratztes Schneidebrett, fehlende brauchbare Käsereibe, unpraktische Plastikutensilien, fusselndes Geschirrtuch und Töpfe mit beschädigter Beschichtung. Viele Dinge könnte man günstig ersetzen.Dazu kommt, dass es keine Fliegengitter gibt, was bei Sommerhitze und vielen Mücken sehr störend ist. Das WLAN war schwach und unzuverlässig, Streaming kaum möglich. Außerdem löste der Gasmelder mehrfach extrem laut aus, sobald man Deo oder Reinigungsmittel sprüht.Fazit: Der Blick ist wunderschön, aber Sauberkeit, Ausstattung und Komfort passen leider nicht zum Preis. Hier müsste deutlich mehr investiert und besser gereinigt werden.
