Lake Como Villa Rental

About The Experience

Stay in this Lake Como villa rental overlooking the water and the nearby town of Varenna, populated with beautiful old houses and romantic panoramas. Plentiful olive and cypress trees are evidence of the mild climate in the area around this Lake Como vacation villa. Built on a rocky promontory over Lake Como, Varenna has been the heart of the area for centuries, an ideal place to explore or relax whenever you decide to leave the comfort and privacy of your villa rental on Lake Como, Italy. A romantic walkway, abounding in flora, wends along the lakefront in town, linking it to Olivedo, a landing point for ferries and steamers.
