Family-friendly vacation rentals in Madesimo

Our stay at Carla’s was fantastic. The property offers a breathtaking view, with the lake, mountains, and sunsets creating a truly unforgettable backdrop. Experiencing it all from the comfort of the balcony made it even more special. The added amenities like the pool and jacuzzi were a perfect touch—super relaxing and just what we needed.

This was my first ever Airbnb stay. The view from the balcony is gorgeous and is exactly what’s displayed in the pictures. There’s an indoor heated pool and sauna in the spa area that makes this a unique stay compared to the others. Even tho we didn’t get to fully use the spa it was a great amenity to have. It’s about 13 minutes driving from the main attraction area so plan accordingly. If you’re not a fan of roads with many corners plan to encounter a few going up to the apartment as well. Andrea the cohost was very friendly and responsive. Overall this was a very nice location. It’s great for a weekend get away. I can just imagine how great it is summertime. Thanks a lot for accommodating us.

The apartment is simply fantastic, especially the view of the lake. The kitchen as well as the bathroom is fully equipped, you feel like home. The hot tub and sauna are super easy to use – there were clear instructions on notes on site so you didn't have to ask questions or contact anyone. Everything was self-explanatory and uncomplicated, totally pleasant, especially if you just want to have your peace and quiet. It was the same when you checked in. This was also done on instructions and you could practically check yourself in. The organization is great! Thank you for this lovely holiday! We will be happy to come back. From us there are 5/5 stars!!!

Giuseppe's place was perfect for our group of 12, offering plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable. The beds were incredibly cozy, ensuring a restful stay. The location was fantastic, with plenty of restaurants, cafes, gelato shops, and grocery stores within walking distance, and the ferry is just a short stroll away. One of the best features was the hot tub, which was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The upstairs patio also offered beautiful views and a great space for meals, but the hot tub definitely made the stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

We spent 3 days on New Year's Eve 2025. Three families with kids. We had a great time. Lara welcomed us warmly at check-in and gave us all the directions to better manage the house, including a stove, jacuzzi and Finnish tub. Clean and complete environments. Super equipped kitchen and bathrooms. Spotless and comfortable rooms. Various children's games and books for moments of relaxation; availability of Sky, Netflix and Disney+. Wood and barbecue available. Priceless view of Lake Como from one side and the mountain on the other side. Great location: quite isolated to be quiet and not to bother anyone but still 5 minutes from the center of the village; less than 10 minutes away we found a very well-stocked shopping center. Really great and recommended experience, to try again in summer with the possibility of also using the outdoor pool. GREAT

This is honestly the best vacation home I have ever stayed in, and we travel a lot. The pictures of the view don’t do it justice. We were in awe just staring out every window at the beauty of the mountains and lake. The indoor pool, sauna, and steam room were great places to relax and unwind, and even better it was private (you book the hour). The inside of the home was beautiful and the kitchen had everything you need. At first we didn’t have a car, but after seeing how high up the mountain we were, we went back to town and rented a car for the duration. Made it a lot easier to explore without having to rely on taxis. Can’t wait to come back.

Mauro is a warm and friendly man and a great host. He took time to meet us and help with luggage which we appreciated very much. At the house he showed us about and made sure we were feeling at home before he left. The house and the views are incredible and we didn't want to leave. Mauro kindly helped us with our suitcases when we left as well. It felt like staying at the house of a friend and we enjoyed it very much.

Just returned after a long weekend here with our two children. The views at this property were unbelievable and were the absolute highlight of the accomodation. Andrea was incredibly friendly, informative and supportive with any help we required. I would recommend hiring a car if you're staying here, we don't think we'd have managed it with the children and it would have left us feeling isolated. Be aware that if you're going with children that it can feel quite cosy and not much space. However, the outdoor terrace had plenty of space and was safe and secure. The lesireu facilities were okay, would benefit from some maintenance but it helped to give the children something to do in an evening. A local restaurant nearby but mostly requiring transport. Varenna is absolutely stunning and a must see, the Lovers Walk, the Lakes Bakery and just watching the world go by at the Lake was amazing. Definitely a trip for beautiful sites and slow living. Thank you ❤️

Nadia is a very kind and helpful host. The cabin is beautiful and very quiet, fireplace and stove made everything very comfortable. In the morning as recommended by Nadia, in good weather, we had breakfast on the beautiful outdoor table. Definitely worth going back - quiet, private, and reassuring. Highly recommended

If I could give the home (and Silvia) more than five stars I would. As beautiful as the view is in the pictures it doesn’t compare to being there in person. It is spectacularly beautiful. The rooms were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and Silvia was very responsive and helpful. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and look forward to visiting again in the future!

I had a wonderful stay at this charming home! The peaceful atmosphere, surrounded by nature, made for a truly relaxing getaway. The presence of friendly cats, goats, and roosters added to the authentic farm experience, making it even more special. The host was incredibly welcoming and made sure everything was perfect throughout my stay. The accommodations were clean, cozy, and well-maintained, offering the perfect balance of comfort and rustic charm. If you're looking for a unique and serene escape, I highly recommend this place. I would love to visit again!

A wonderful getaway in a wildly romantic setting with nice hosts.

If we could give 6 stars we would. The location is beautiful, full of wonderful nature. Ivana’s apartment felt right at home, had everything you would want in an airbnb and more. We very much enjoyed all the delicacies! Even with public transport its very reachable and Ivana is very friendly and helpful. We wouldn’t think twice about booking again.

Laura was a perfect host, the home has amazing views and she makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend it.

Many thanks Andrea! Beautiful place and a beautiful sunrise from the room window. Definitely will stay again when I need a break!

Tip great😊 wonderful Air Bnb great amenities and central location Shopping around the corner, Parking in front of the house, very clean, everything available for a nice holiday in this beautiful small town. Thanks :)

I wish I could give Monia’s home 10 stars. She’s the epitome of a super host, and her home, is just wow. Spacious, clean, well furnished, private, peaceful with gorgeous views. Monia’s home is one of the top airbnbs I’ve stayed in. The check-in process was flexible and seamless. In fact, she accommodated an early check in after having to leave another airbnb after an unfortunate situation. She had a basket of goodies waiting for us on the table and we immediately felt right at home. She went out of her way to make us a second bed, and get us more nespresso pods. She was also quick and so kind in her responses. We work from home, and the setting/ wifi was great. Although the pool was closed for the season, it was so nice to spend our mornings in the sun on the lounge chairs. I loved taking walks in the forest behind the house, and watching the sunset from the bench outside. I can’t recommend Monia’s home enough. We were sad to leave, and will definitely return back. Grazie mille, Monia❤

Very nice host who provided us with tips again and again. Our children loved the pool and the view from the terrace is very nice. We give a point deduction because of the road that passes the apartment and because it is difficult to walk (hillside location, few sidewalks). If that doesn't bother you, you're in great hands here!

The place is great if you want a relaxing holiday. The view on the lake is just a dream and even if it was a little too cold for the great pool in April, we had a lot of sun on the terrace☀️ It's best to travel by car, as it's the fastest way to get to the promenade of Domaso and larger supermarkets. There is a private parking space right at the property! In the apartment, everything is very clean and modern, so you can only feel comfortable. 🙃 The landlady was super friendly and gave us some good tips for excursions in the area! 😊 We would like to come back again and again! Grazie mille 🥰

Views were amazing, the Airbnb has everything you need. Hosts are responsive and helpful. Check in and Checkout went smoothly. I‘m happy to come again :)

A great place with a wonderful view. Peace and quiet, next to a very attractive walking route (Greeway), but also a mountain path. I highly recommend it!

Beautiful place. We really wanted a peaceful spot with beautiful views and got exactly that. The house is up in the mountains above Lenno with access to good restaurants but it was a challenging walk from town. Recommend getting a car and taxis are not consistent. We would go back to the area and back to the same house.

Christian’s place was fantastic! We love Gravedona and Lake Como. The view is amazing and the little patio and front garden were perfect for breakfast, wine in the afternoon or just relaxing. Easy drive to Switzerland and Italian Alps.

Perfect location. Place was ready for us. Friendly host with local tips of the area. Worth a return.
