This beautiful villa is divided into two separate units, one on the ground floor (Villa Menaggio 1) that sleeps 12, and one on the first floor (Villa Menaggio 2) that sleeps 6. The units can be rented together for a group of 18, or separately. The villa is located right on the lake with spectacular views, and it is only 1 km from the town of Menaggio with its many shops and restaurants.
- Location Description
-
This beautiful Lake Como villa is located just 1 km from the town of Menaggio, which can be reached by foot in about 25 minutes. Menaggio, the largest town in the central lake area, which includes Varenna and Bellagio, has Roman origins and boasts a charming historic center. The town is a “local” haunt, as well as a tourist destination. It has a very nice lakefront promenade with the largest Lido on the lake, Lido Giardino Menaggio, which has a large pool (25m), children’s pool, and a beach with sun loungers, lake access, volley ball, playground and a pizzeria. There is very good public transportation via buses and ferries. Bellagio and Varenna are also important to visit, even if the former is filled with tourists during the summer season. Varenna is lovely with a wonderful lakeside promenade and the Villa Monastero.
Nearby Attractions: Be sure to utilize the Tourist Office in the main square of Piazza Garibaldi. They can give you lots of helpful information, including timetables, brochures, maps and current events in the area. Also, visit the surrounding villages, including Porlezza (on the way to Lugano) and Val Solda, a string of small villages referred to as the “Piccolo Mondo Antico.” The Tremezzina area is worth a trip, as well, with wonderful little villages, such as Carlotta and Balbianello, with beautiful villas to visit.
