About this property

IL CORTILETTO Apartment, a wonderful Bellagio experience in the heart of town

IL CORTILETTO Apartment is a recently renewed family historical place with its own entrance directly from one of the main stairways of town. Fitted with heating, AC, high speed Wi-Fi and satellite TV, it offers two wide and comfortable bedrooms, one master and one double, a bathroom, large open space with fully equipped kitchen and living room. The living room has a brand new sofa bed that can accommodate two more people and be folded back in a comfortable sofa during the day time. The double room has a little nice small balcony from which you can admire a glimpse of lake and the many boats approaching the shore during the day time. The apartment also offers you the possibility to sit and relax in a delicious patio filled with flowers just in front of the house entrance where you can enjoy a quiet breakfast in a sunny summer morning or just read a book and listen to the town’s sounds and melodies while drinking a glass of Italian wine.

IL CORTILETTO Apartment is the perfect place for couples or families wishing to experience living in the old town of Bellagio in a friendly and cozy environment, spacious and welcoming.

IL CORTILETTO Apartment is located in the very center of old town Bellagio, the pearl of Lake Como. It is the perfect place to experience and taste the exclusive and historical town lifestyle. Just a few steps from the lake shore, you can easily walk the center and explore its amenities, beautiful gardens, restaurants, bars, exquisite food, wine and boutiques Bellagio can offer. Easy to reach, being just a few steps away from the ferry and walking distance from parking spots, it offers you the possibility to discover Bellagio and its secret corners, surrounded by nature for a relaxing break from the city life.

Definitely an experience not to miss, living Bellagio right from its historical beating heart.

We hope to welcoming you soon!

Great place in the heart of Bellagio

Elisabetta was a great host. Our flight was delayed and we did not arrive until 2:00 a.m. so she provided excellent instructions for us to get into the property and garage. Apartment was as advertised. Very clean and comfortable.

Prachtig appartement op toplocatie

Erg genoten van het stadje Bellagio vanuit dit appartement. Zeer centraal gelegen in een van de leuke steegjes. 30m van de veerdienst en omringd door restaurantjes en winkeltjes. Ijssalons, pleintjes, winkeltje met groente/fruit en mogelijkheden voor afhalen van broodjes of pizza allemaal op loopafstand. Appartement was zeer compleet uitgerust en schoon. Het terras buiten was ook een goede toevoeging. Van binnen alles netjes afgewerkt en gerenoveerd, het blijft wel een oud gebouw dus zeker gehorig mbt bovenburen en kamers binnen het appartement. Maar geen reden om dit niet te boeken. De eigenaresse was erg aardig, behulpzaam en had goede tips voor bezienswaardigheden etc. Als je wilt genieten van een echte Bellagio-ervaring, dan is deze accommodatie echt een aanrader. Boek wel een parkeerplaats bij dit appartement, want parkeren in het stadje zelf is nagenoeg onmogelijk.

I wish I could give 10 stars

If you are looking for an apartment in Bellagio…BOOK THIS APARTMENT NOW! This apartment was a dream. The location was perfect for us. 30 steps up from the lake level was good when carrying luggage. Central to everything we wanted to do, close to the ferry station. The outside area had tables and chairs with grapevines. One night we put the tables together and had a dinner for 7. Elisabetta provided a tablecloth for us to use. Inside was clean, comfortable furniture and everything we needed for our stay. And the A/C was much appreciated with the heat in Europe while we were there. Oh, it was very quiet too. Elisabetta was a great host. She responded to my emails and answered all my questions and told me the best route to take from the airport to Bellagio. When in Bellagio, she gave advise and was always available to answer questions. Thank you Elisabetta for having us and for your hospitality. You made Bellagio a trip of a lifetime.

Incredible apartment in a perfect location!

This apartment is perfectly located in downtown Bellagio! It is walking distance to the ferries, all of the restaurants and wine bars you could want, and more! The apartment owner, Elisabetta, was incredibly gracious and helped us park our car. She then showed us the apartment, gave us the keys and left us to enjoy it! The apartment was absolutely perfect in terms of size. We want to return and stay here again! If we could give this place 10 out of 5 stars - we would! Thank you so much!

Heel fijn

We hebben twee heerlijke dagen gehad in dit super leuke plaatsje aan het Comomeer. Het appartement ligt heel centraal met aan het ene uiteinde van de steeg/trap het prachtige meer en aan het andere uiteinde het leuke winkelstraatje. Elisabetta raadde ons van alles aan in de buurt en om lekker te eten en was heel vriendelijk.

Appartement cosy, idéalement situé

Pour notre premier séjour au bord du lac de Côme, nous ne pouvions espérer mieux. La propriétaire est d'une grande gentillesse, très accueillante, nous renseignant sur les choses à faire ou à voir, de precieux conseils. L' appartement est très beau, propre, bien équipé, la terrasse est vraiment très agréable ! Idéalement situé. Stationnement et circulation difficile, une solution de garage (en surcout) nous a été proposé. Ensuite on découvre le lac avec les bateaux.

Lovely comfortable place in the middle of Bellagio

We had a wonderful stay at Elisabetta's place. The location couldn't be any better, and the apartment is very comfortable, particularly because of the attention to detail and quality (e.g. very good bed, soft towels and pillows, good showet etc). Thank you for a lovely time!

Best little apartment in Bellagio!

We loved our stay at this apartment. It was centrally located and could not get a better location. You really get the full Italian experience here. We arrived later in the evening and Elisabetta was a gracious host with many tips (and a great pizza recommendation a few steps away) and a map to show us where to go and what to do. There is a balcony that is shared with a cooking class (which was not a problem at all) and at night and morning it was open so we enjoyed our last nights dinner there. Elisabetta even dropped off a meal left from the cooking class and when I returned the dish, we were given another. Can't beat that! Its a cute little town and the apartment was clean and had everything we needed. I am so glad our family of 6 stayed here! Also the photos on VRBO were not updated and the kitchen was remodeled and updated tv. What a great surprise! Gratzi!

The best place in Bellagio!!

We came to Bellagio for 3 nights and I am beyond happy that we chose this apartment! It is perfect. The location is a dream and close to everything. Only a short walk up the stairs and you are home! The apartment was very comfortable and updated. It was spotless and had everything you could need. Elsabetta was so kind and genuine and provided us with perfect recommendations for our stay (to which we took full advantage of visiting every spot). There is a fantastic restaurant right around the corner, a small market which I would buy fruit and water from, and right up the stairs from the lake and all of the lake side restaurants / shops. I cannot say enough wonderful things and would not want to stay anywhere else in Bellagio!!

A Gem

We spent on week at Il Cortiletto making Bellagio our home base for exploring Lake Como. The apartment's location is outstanding with only a matter of steps to the hub af Bellagio's activity... shops, restaurants and ferries. In spite of its central location the apartment is quiet, clean and air conditioned. A private patio under the grape vine adds to the charm. The kitchen is well equipped should one want to cook up some pasta. Would recommend without any reservation. Excellent choice.

About the host

Hosted by Elisabetta

Host profile image
Hello I am Elisabetta, born and raised in beautiful Bellagio and now living here with my family. I have been travelling quite a bit around the world but always felt the need to come back to my lake and to our beautiful surroundings. I love meeting people and share experiences with them and somehow help them fall in love with Bellagio while being our guests in our IL CORTILETTO Apartment.

Why they chose this property

The unique position of IL CORTILETTO Apartment is what makes your vacation a memorable one. I love this place as it is my former home and what is so precious about it is the location in the center of town and the privacy of the little patio. It is wonderful to be in town but having your little outdoor space to enjoy the nice summer weather.
