“Wonderful base for Cernobbio and Lake Como”
The view from the apartment over Lake Como a 20 minute walk up the hill from Villa D’Este & Cernobbio. Simon the host was very helpful, meeting us at our convenience with lots of ideas about where to go based on his experience as Concierge. He even gave us a bottle of wine from his parents vineyard. Highly recommended, we will be back!

“Amazing!”
Incredible. Views were spectacular! The place itself Is immaculately clean! Really felt like 'home.' The jacuzzi bath was fab too. Simone (our host) was brilliant. Sorted our private boat tour, booked our dinners and recommended where to go. Loved it! The apartment is on a steep hill but we got a free bus up that dropped us outside (after we'd tackled the hill the first night!) Take a few bits for the stay like milk and coffee and breakfast items. There was a machine but not the right pods.

Amazing property overlooking lake como, there’s a fine dining restaurant located just steps away and a bus station just outside the property. Simone was amazing and helped with recommendations and requests when we had any. Only thing to note is that you probably have to get a taxi from Como station if ur arriving by train if you want it quick without waiting for the bus.

“If you looking for the more relaxed face of the Lake Como you‘ll find it here”
IT is a cozy, well equipped apartment on the hillside of Cernobbio. Comfortable and relatively spacious so usable for longer holidays. Nice view to the lake. The owner is a fantastic guide, so the real experience was the guiding which make us a real special holiday.

The view and the amenities were wonderful! Very clean and also a fantastic host - thank you again! The layout was very unique for a 1 bedroom. It’s a bit outside of the centre of Como but there are two good eating options nearby. I very much enjoyed relaxing in the living room with the incredible panoramic view.

The apartment was very clean, spacious and has the most beautiful views of lake Como. It comes fully equipped with everything you could need and the bed is super comfortable. Simone could not do enough for us while we were there, 10/10 for everything. Thank you for the most perfect stay.

“Stunning view, local vibe, friendly staff”
Simon helped us with everything - finding the place, parking, check-in, of course, moving around the town, activities, etc! He’s very friendly and willing to help us. Also, the property has a stunning view from its living room! Tips to future guests: it might be challenging to find parking downtown, call Uber from the property, or catch a bus from the hill. My advice is just to ask Simon to call a driver - the easiest and cost-effective way to go out downtown (I mean down the hill)

“Good experience, rainy Como mornings were memorable.”
Very clean apartment with a great view. Has everything you might need. We had a rental car so it was not a problem but without car it’d not be easy.
