Lake Como Roof Top of Comacina Island
Monica was the best host I've met. The communicaton with her was very easy, her response time is super quick. The instructions to go in to home is very clear and she is supporting the instructions with videos. Her place is exactly as it seems on the photos and maybe even more beautiful. The view from the balcony and the terrace is mesmerizing. Neighbourhood was very calm and quiet but it might be because it was off season when I stayed there. Although the neighbourhood is calm, the markets and closest shopping centers are only within 15 minutes driving distance. House is also very close to the Villa Balbianello. The house was very clean, Monica left everything we need in the fridge and kitchen. Lastly she helped us a lot during our stay with her recommendations for restaurants, shops, facilities around the region.

The Window on the Lake
All I've gotta say is that if you are even considering booking this Amazing apartment with one of the Most Spectacularly Magical views of Lake Como just do yourself a favor & Book It! Elena is an incredible host with Amazing communication from start to finish. Elena welcomed us by picking us up from the nearby bus stop & was so kind to get us settled into the Fantastic apartment. The welcome water & snacks were a nice touch after a long day of travel. Unfortunately it rained for the majority of our stay but please know that it was still one of the most beautiful stays ever! The attention to detail like leaving a couple of umbrellas for us to discover just outside the apartment door was extremely thoughful as we explored the nearby town of Lenno that I highly recommend. The apartment is located to walkable yummy local restaurants, grocery store etc. The apartment is nicely equipped with with everything you need & the beds are Super comfy. We hope to return soon!

House on the lake shore | Veranda in natural environment
The house is a pearl. We have already been there a second time and will be back again. Simon is a top host, very friendly and helpful. Amazing place to unplug and enjoy.

Home with big terrace overlooking the lake parking
Laura's home was lovely -- very clean and comfortable, with spectacular views from every room. It looked just like the photos: charmingly retro, with all the amenities we needed. Laura greeted us warmly and gave us a map of local attractions and eateries, including a bakery right across the street and a coffee shop just up the hill. This was our first visit to Lake Como and we didn't realize how narrow and windy the roads are (we should have arrived before dark -- our fault), but Laura's place was easy to find, just off the main road and not noisy at all. Felt like a slice of heaven.

House IL Terrazzino Lake Como
We had a lovely stay at Il Terrazzino! The hosts were warm and welcoming, and the house was spotlessly clean with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The view over the lake was absolutely stunning, and the location was perfect—peaceful, yet just a short drive to everything. We would definitely recommend it and would love to return!

Vacation home with lake view/Lake Sempach/near Lucerne
Solveig’s place had everything for our large group of 7 adults and 5 kids. Lots of space and mattresses in the house. Comfortable beds and cozy rooms. There were toys for the kids and kitchen had everything that we needed. Beautiful views and church bells in the evenings were very special!!

Lake Gruyère House: La Clavetta 10 1645 Le Bry
Great place with a fantastic view of the lake! I found everything to be as described with the sauna being an obvious highlight. Due to the house being located at a cul-de-sac, it feels very private (except for the odd rando intrigued by the view or the owner's sister collecting some furniture on Easter weekend). The autobahn is nearby, but its sound doesn't overwhelm that of the cow bells, so no big deal.

leonardo apartment
One of the best views you can get. Even the pictures can not show how good it is. The house was very clean. The easiest check-in ever. Michele is a great host and answered to any question we had. Many thanks!

Apt Casa Margherita by the lake
Apartment with a superb view of the lake, right in the heart of Menaggio and a 3min walk from the ferry departures. Very nice on-site parking but attention for small car (type SUV or sedan not possible). Well equipped, very clean, and quiet apartment. Baby cot and high chair provided by Marco, everything was perfect for our stay with our two daughters 4 and 1.5 years old! Marco is a very responsive and available host. Self check-in by key box. If we have to return to Lake Como, we are definitely staying here again!

Lake Como, Francesca House apartment, Dongo
Hello Nada, Thank you so much for hosting us! We stayed for 2 days with 3 families and everything about the place exceeded our expectations. The kitchen was very well equipped, which made cooking and spending time together so enjoyable. The beds were super comfortable, and the entire place was spotless and well-maintained. A special thank you as well for the thoughtful gift of wine—it was such a lovely surprise and truly added a special touch to our stay. We had a really nice and fulfilling time, and we appreciated how welcoming and well-prepared everything was. Thanks again—we’d definitely love to come back in the future! Thank you once again… Naveen

FRONT LAKE ORANGE SUITE
We had a great time! The apartment was beautiful and the location was excellent. Andrea is a great Host, very friendly and helpful. Absolutely recommendable!

Lake Front, Directly on the Water!
This was our first time staying on Lake Como and this place did not disappoint. It was quiet and relaxing and to stay in a town away from all the hustle and bustle was so relaxing. Our hosts Alessandra and Roberto checked in on us pre check in and during our stay they made us feel at home! Would definitely come back again

Apartment on Lake Como
Dave and his family were very welcoming and had excellent communication throughout our stay. His father picked us up from the ferry station and took us on a small tour around Gravedona village which was very helpful. The house was beautiful, the views were breathtaking and the hosts were just amazing. Thank you Dave for this wonderful house, our trip was well worth our money!

La Splendida, a breathtaking terrace on Lake Como
Beautiful apartment and amazing views, exactly as described. Host Paola was very helpful and the check-in info was easy to follow. The bed was comfortable and water pressure great (for older building). The location was amazing – being on the water in a quieter town. Bellano was definitely the choice for us. Other more popular known towns such as Bellagio and Varenna are definitely worth the visit but too busy and touristy for our liking, even end of April. The main purpose for our trip to Lake Como was the Villa del Balbianello in Lenno, another very beautiful and less touristy town, especially early morning. Orrido di Bellano is definitely a must see. I can recommend Bar Truth where we stopped for lunch (great pizza) and Bar Testori where we had our last morning coffees, fresh croissants and paninis to go. We would definitely stay at Paola’s if/when revisiting Lake Como again.

Great location, absolutely great view and extremely responsive hosts to the needs of tourists! We will definitely come back to this place where, although away from home, it feels like home! We recommend to everyone who wants a successful vacation!

Bright cottage with great lake view
We enjoyed staying in the middle of the mountains. The baita is cozy, has a lovely garden, BBQ, and stove for inside. Our children (1 and 4 years) enjoyed playing in the garden. We made wonderful hiking tours. This space is really recommended for those looking for the silence and tranquility of the mountains. We were there in early May and the temperature was lovely. Had a lot of sunshine. The host was very flexible about arrival and departure. Thank you Emanuele for the tip to walk on the Passo della Forgalo. A breathtaking trek that starts next to the cottage.

Newly built award-winning cottage on lake Thun.
The place is very, very beautiful, and the dealing and communication with her was very nice and kind, and she answered quickly when I asked questions. She also helped me with the best tourist and beautiful places in the areas close to the residence. Also, all my friends ask me where this beautiful place is when they saw the pictures I took when I was at home. I will visit you again soon.

Casa Zio Fabio
Very nice location, easy to access We lacked nothing, Marco and Guilia we were very friendly and available, the village of Devrio is beautiful we hope to come back, thank you again

Rustic Private Cottage front Lake w/ BOAT
Our stay at this charming lakeside house was nothing short of amazing! The location is unbeatable, with direct access to the serene Lugano Lake, and the availability of a boat and kayaks made every day an adventure. The pizza oven was a delightful highlight, perfect for cozy evenings. The house was spotless, and every amenity listed was thoughtfully provided. The host was incredibly kind, helpful, and kept in constant communication, ensuring a seamless stay. Highly recommend this little gem!”

Private Zürich Lake-Front Cottage with Sauna
A nice little house directly on the lake. Pure relaxation with sauna and enough space for four to sit on the sofa. You are quickly in the city or in the mountains and various shopping facilities are available nearby. Lovingly decorated and cozy. Very nice contact and impeccable communication.
