Beautiful large apartment overlooking Lake Como, with a garden patio and private beach - lovely vistas from every room. Our host Marco was very helpful. The walk from Fumelatte to Varenna was best along the “Greenway.” We highly recommend this peaceful place!
Our family of five enjoyed our short time in this beautiful rental. The location is great, the views are fantastic, and the apartment amenities are wonderful. The hosts were very responsive and helpful, and have obviously put a lot of thought and work into the place. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay on Lake Como.
This is a wonderful apartment, the perfect base for exploring Lake Como, within 10 minutes of Varenna and the regular ferry services. The two bedrooms are spacious with separate bathrooms, and the living spaces are very generous. The entire apartment is clean, well furnished and has everything you’ll need. Parking is off-road and secure in a garage. Marco is a wonderful host, good communication and very generous.The biggest memory is the view, massive panoramic windows give you a perfect view of the lake which is just breathtaking. Cannot recommend this apartment enough.
The place is as pictured and we loved it very much. Great views and great Patio. Bathrooms and kitchens were all full updated. Host was extremely accommodating.
As pictured! Nice, quiet location (beside street noise from cars and bikes zooming past). Car is a must for getting around and getting supplies like food, laundry detergent and dishwashing tabs- if you want to use those amenities. A single starter pod is provided for each. The locking and secure car garage was under the apartment on the street level which was great. The hosts greeted us to show us around and was very kind to offer area restaurant locations and recommendations as well as the best grocery store for supplies with good parking.
It was the perfect stay, after driving around Switzerland for several weeks, this apartment offered everything that you just dont get staying in town (Varenna), with onsite parking in a large garage, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, full kitchen and sunroom. The terrace was my favorite feature. With views straight across the lake to Bellagio, Menaggio and Varenna. We stayed 4 nights and loved our time here.
The apartment is just as described and pictured. The views of the lake are beautiful, especially at sunset. The unit was clean and well maintained. The beds are very comfortable. We had 4 adults and one 8 yr old. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and cookware. Marco was a great host and offered recommendations for eating and sightseeing. We could not have been more satisfied with the unit. We would recommend without hesitation.
Marco was a great host and very accommodating. The apartment was cleanly and had a beautiful view of the lake. I would strongly recommend staying here!
The apartment was amazing! AC worked well and the host Marco was wonderful. Plenty of room for 3 of us and the patio was great to lounge on and look at the beautiful lake and mountains. It is on a busy road so you can’t walk to town. Taxis are really expensive ( I don’t recommend using Donicar, he charged us 30 to go to town 2 km away), rent a car if you can there is a parking garage in Varenna.The little beach was the highlight of our stay. We went swimming every day and the water was so clean and refreshing!Thanks Marco for a lovely stay!
We honestly can’t say enough good things about the experience. From the moment we arrived our host Marco and his wife were exceptionally welcoming. The property offered breathtaking views of Lake Como from almost every room. It was beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean, and felt like a true home away from home. The outdoor garden / balcony provided a space for relaxation and enjoying the serene surroundings. All communication was prompt and helpful throughout our stay and the parking for our car was perfect.Overall, this was the best experience during our trip to Italy. We would highly recommended this apartment for anyone looking for a magical and unforgettable stay in Lake Como!"
Marco and his wife are fabulous hosts! We were greeted warmly and with chilled presence and homemade bread. It is a short distance to Varenna and you can walk the greenway into town. The apartment was great with a fabulous sunroom and outdoor patio overlooking Lake Como. We would definitely stay here again.
Marco and Daniela have the most breathtaking lake view rental! Our family of four stayed for 4 nights, and we were in awe of the beautiful views of Lake Como. Perfectly situated outside of Varenna, it was quiet and peaceful while still being easily able to get around the lake for activities. The hosts met us for check-in with a bottle of prosecco and some light snacks, and gave some recommendations on where to eat, as well as where the closest supermarket was. Since the view from the garden and dining room were so incredible, we ate dinner there most nights. There was enough room for our family of four to spread out, and the air conditioning was a definite bonus as there was a heat wave while we were there. My husband and I enjoyed wine in the garden overlooking the lake every night. I can’t say enough about how wonderful this rental was, I would give it 10 stars if I could. My husband and I are already trying to plan a time we could make it there again. Thank you Marco and Daniela, truly one of the best VRBO stays we have ever had!
Our flight got delayed so we only made it for 1 of our 3 nights, but we made the most of it. Beautiful villa. Only complaint is little privacy. Owners live upstairs and are always right out and about. But they could not be kinder.
The view from the terrace is amazing! A wonderful and relaxing place to spend time on Lake Como. The location is very convenient to the ferry in Varenna. You can’t walk easily to Varenna but the drive is quick and parking was easy in the garage. If you are looking for beauty and relaxation, this is the perfect place.
My wife, myself, and our two kids stayed here (2.5yrs old and the other 11mo.). We absolutely enjoyed our time here! It is perfect for families because of the yard, plenty of space, and safe and easy access to swimming. Marco and his family were incredibly kind and friendly throughout the whole process. They even helped us arrange a babysitter so my wife and I could have a date night. Being able to find and stay in a places like this is why I love VRBO and similar sites. The only drawback of this house is that it’s a 30-40min walk from Varenna (a walk on an Italian street where much of it does not have sidewalks). We had a car and were able to find parking in Varenna’s parking garage on the south side of town (even in the busy time of July, but we made sure to arrive early before 9am). Overall I highly recommend this place.
The House is Beautiful but the Hosts are the Best!
We loved our stay in this beautiful house. Marco and his wife are amazing hosts and so kind. The lake is beautiful and this property is so peaceful and quiet. We loved it!
Wonderful accommodations with epic views of Lake Como. Location was excellent as well, close by to grocery store, restaurants, ferry access and hiking trails.
For a change, the property was exactly as advertised. Plenty of room, clean , incredible views and charming hosts.
Hoping to return with friends.
Suggest renting a car as taxi service is a bit tough.
This was one of the nicest properties we have ever stayed in. The view itself is worth every dollar. During our stay, we had a car and were able to explore the nearby towns. I would definitely recommend doing so, because multiple people were seen dragging their luggage throughout town while trying to get to their stays. You don’t want to be on the narrow roadside with your bags. Marco was the most hospitable host that we have encountered yet. This stay was for our wedding, and not only did he communicate with our wedding planner to help with the florist, make up artist, photographer and chef, but on the wedding day itself, he and his wife stopped by to drop of flowers. Overall, he helped make our wedding day all that we could have ever asked for and more. I 1000% recommend this place and hopefully will be returning soon
