Lilla house LAKE VIEW with garden
Gostámos muito da casa e da sua envolvente. Perfeita para quem quer descobrir a zona do Lago di Como. Muito próxima de Varenna e com uma vista incrível para as montanhas. Um lugar a voltar!

Piccola casa vacanze | Small vacation house
Séjour calme et reposant. La communication était facile et efficace. Accessible en train, à 10-15 minutes à pied de la gare. Merci pour tout :)

Villa Rita with pool 5 min from Varenna center
Certes la route d’accès au logement est étroite mais ça vaut la peine et les gens qui l’empruntent sont très attentifs. Une vue splendide depuis le logement, village paisible, la plage est accessible à 10 min à pieds. Daniele est très réactif, merci à lui Je recommande.

Villa signorile, vista lago
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed Marina’s beautiful old house. It has tons of old-world character; it has a gorgeous view; it’s totally private; and it’s very spacious. We were six couples and there was still room to spare. The house is 20 minutes walk from town but we had cars and drove. Marina’s brother and niece met us for check in and were extremely helpful and gracious. As we arrived after dark, they kindly left provisions for a simple dinner, which was highly appreciated.

Dream lake Panorama - garage in the centre Varenna
Everything about this stay was more then perfect, the view was incredible and worth staying here for this alone! having both parking spots was handy, bed was incredibly comfortable, one of the best showers I’ve used, communication and recommendations are the best we’ve ever experienced from a host, they made a great trip even better, The walk into the town is fine, very scenic and chose to do it on a couple of occasions. Couldn’t recommend this place and host enough, already looking trying to stay here again.

Sweety ecoapartment near the lake
Vielen Dank für diesen schönen Aufenthalt. Die Unterkunft ist sehr schön eingerichtet. Die vielen liebevoll gestalteten Details haben mir sehr gefallen. Eine schöne Überraschung war der volle Kühlschrank und die feinen Sachen zum Frühstück. Massimo und Viviana waren sehr freundlich und die Kommunikation hat hervorragend geklappt. Ich habe die Zeit sehr genossen und würde die Unterkunft jederzeit wieder buchen.

Villetta indipendente a Verbania
Nos sentimos en una casa antigua de campo, con todas las comodidades. Oíamos el canto de los pájaros en la mañana y salíamos a pasear por el lago desde la parte de atrás de la casa, menos transitada y hermosa. Cerca de todo, a pocos pasos del centro de Verbania. Fiorella estuvo pendiente de nuestras necesidades. Excelente anfitriona.

Casa nel bosco
Ein kleines, feines Haus etwas abseits gelegen in wunderschöner Natur eingebettet. Die Lage am anderen Ufer des kleinen Baches sowie das Einfeuern mit Holz hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Naomi war jederzeit erreichbar und sehr proaktiv in Ihrer Kommunikation. Wir haben es sehr genossen, auch wenn das Wetter leider nicht so toll war. Sehr empfehlenswert!

10 minutes from Bellagio ~ Casa Mary ~
Notre séjour dans le logement d’Enzo et Maddie a été parfait! L’emplacement est idéal pour rayonner dans les différents endroits à visiter du lac de Côme. La proximité de Bellagio est un gros plus. L’appartement est cosy et très propre avec tout le nécessaire à disposition. Enzo et Maddie sont des hôtes très réactifs et la communication a été très rapide et facile à chaque fois que nous en avions besoin. Nous recommandons!

La finestra sul lago
Marco's house was fantastic - perfect location, amazing views (especially from the incredible patio), and well equipped. Marco was a great host - very friendly and good communication, and he even let us check in early!

Peaceful house near laggo Maggiore
Wir hatten einen unvergesslichen Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist geräumig, hat alles was man braucht, eine extrem gut ausgestattete Küche, mehrere Balkone, von denen man ins wunderschöne Tal blicken konnte und die frische Bergluft genießen. Wir haben uns extrem wohl gefühlt und würden Casa Ursula jedem empfehlen, der einen ruhigen Rückzugsort in der Natur sucht. Danke!

Il rifugio sul Lago
Gentile Gabrielle e team, abbiamo trascorso un soggiorno meraviglioso nel vostro appartamento a Porto Ceresio. Vi ringraziamo per la vostra professionalità, le istruzioni esaurienti, la disponibilità e per l'ottima posizione. Una volta tornati a Porto Ceresio, torneremo sicuramente a soggiornare da voi, se sarete d'accordo.

Casa Margherita with lake view - family friendly
Wir hatten ein schönes Wochenende in der Wohnung. Es war alles wie beschrieben und auf den Bildern, in echt eher noch schöner. Der Kontakt mit Marco hat super funktioniert. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Designer Apartment Emilia
Great host let us to check in earlier. The flat was 10 meters to city center. Everything was perfect the flat was very clean and stylish. Best stay at Argegno will diffently come back when visiting Argegno. Best reccomendations from our side

Casa sul Monte - Ispra
This unique house has a wonderful location with great surroundings. We are a family of 5 and found everything we needed. The house is very well-equipped and there is plenty of space for playing outside. The nice lady from the farm next door showed us her animals and even gave us fresh eggs and Italian Easter-bread. Unfortunately, we had to leave 3 days early due to severe weather warnings and a sick child. We still enjoyed our stay very much and hope to come back some day.
