Pianello del Lario is a charming little village on lake Como at 46km from town Como on the north-western shore. It has a long-sandy-gravel beach called Laguna Beach. In Pianello village, every amenity is at your disposal - a local bakery, supermarket, cafes and restaurants provide a true taste of the relaxed Italian lifestyle while for the adventurous amongst you, there is hiking, water sports, golf and skiing, all easily accessible in the surrounding areas.

Whether your holiday plans are for simply relaxing or reading a book with a cappuccino on the terrace; perhaps walking in the Italian Alps with all that fresh alpine air; alternatively, you\'re adventure plans may see you windsurfing, boating or fishing on this truly spectacular lake and then of course, there is skiing at the world famous St. Moritz or at Madesimo, a charming ski resort just 60km away (1hr 15 mins) - then Villa Rustico is the place for you. Please note that the pool is open from the 1st of June 2024 to the 30th of September 2024

Old property in need of rennovation

Long weekend, two families with 4 children between 2-7. Pros Beautiful views Peaceful location Decent size bedrooms Cons Pool wasnt cleaned upon checkin Fridge had been switched off, not cold for food and drinks Property in generally a poor state - think we were the first in there in a while Oven kept tripping the power, so we couldnt use it Wifi code was wrong and took a few calls to get it working No chopping board for food preparation and generally poorly kitchen Cold tap not working in bathtub downstairs, nearly scalded a child If you arent fussy about the quality of furnishings or kitchen stuff, and generally tired state of the property, then for the price, this is an OK stay. I wouldn't come again with a family. Might be OK for walkers due to trail access.

Poor service

I had also communicated that the wireless internet did not worked all week and we incurred $300 in data charges on our cell phones accordingly. No one ever responded despite my emails and posting on VRBO. - there were several rubbish items in the lawn when we arrived including empty water bottles, broken pool toys, etc. - only one of the seven outside lights seem to work. - lots of bugs (dead and alive) when we arrived in the unit. The walls had markings where other bugs had been killed. - the front terrace door was wide open when we arrived and made us very uncomfortable that the house was not secure when we arrived. - the driving instructions missed several key steps to get here. Also, the longitude and latitude coordinates were not correct. The only way we were able to finally reach the property was through contacting your team member and him s ending me an apple map / GPS route. We incurred $270 additional transportation charges. - the pictures of the furniture and outdoors is dated - none of the outdoor furniture shown was actually on property. - we asked no less than five times where to put garbage. Only once did we get a response and they said it was on the street. It was clear the person responding had either never been to the property or not in a long time because there were no bins. We stayed in 4 VRBO properties while in Italy and this one stood out with poor service and upkeep.

Katastrof med tanke på kostnaden/dygn

Så dålig service, städningen var så dåligt utförd. Solstolar var slitna & skitiga! Poolen var inte ren, damm ovanför köksfläkt. Nej nej....

Erwartung versus Tatsache

Die Erwartungen unsererseits waren bei dem Preis dieses Domizils recht hoch. Leider wurden diese nicht erfüllt. Durch geschickt dargestellte Fotografien erschien manches anders als tatsächlich. Von der Sauberkeit waren wir enttäuscht und das bei der hohen Berechnung der Reinigungskosten. Ebenso wurden defekte Gegenstände nicht ausgetauscht und das bei einer weiteren Berechnung von Schäden, egal ob sie entstanden oder nicht. Ebenso wird in ihrer Beschreibung mit einem Parkplatz am Haus geworben ohne zu erwähnen dass erst 54 Stufen zu überwinden sind. Wir würden hier nicht mehr buchen
