About The Experience
Everyone wants to stay on Lake Como! 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.

Customer Reviews

Overall:
Lovely accommodations, well equipped suitable for 3 couples. Very nice convenient, quiet location.
Enjoyed Most:
Views from the balconies, well equipped and lots of storage space, large living space, bicycles even though we did not use them. Nice nearby town with shops, restaurants, ferry service, grocery store & bakery.
Enjoyed Least:
Approx. 20-25 min. walk to town with ferry service, shops restaurants. Actually a very nice walk but not for people with any mobility issues. Stairs to 2nd floor penthouse hard with people carrying large luggage.
Surrounding Area:
Small town atmosphere; not big like Como.
Tips or Restaurants:
The Mennagio Country Club is a special experience but expensive, can arrange through Villa owner. Oldest Country Club in Europe?? Variety of good restaurants in town of Mennagio or take the ferry to Bellagio for day; eat at one of the many restaurants. Beautiful town to go for the day.
Directions:
We had the owner arrange a private transfer from Milan direct to the Villa. We did not have a car. Also, for those arriving by ferry you will need to take a taxi because of the distance from town to the Villa, not walking distance with luggage.
Check In Out:
Everything went smoothly.

Overall:
Everything was as described. Villa was lovely, very clean, and very well equipped. We had a very good time.
Enjoyed Most:
The villa itself was very nice with a lovely view. It was also quiet and secure. Laura, the manager/owner could not have been more helpful with many good recommendations and immediate access for any questions we had.
Surrounding Area:
The town of Menaggio was charming, and an easy walk.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Menaggio. Yes.
Tips or Restaurants:
Restaurant recommendations from Laura were terrific. In particular, Al Veluu and Locanda La Tirlindana.
Directions:
We used GPS. The distances noted in the directions were a little inaccurate, but our GPS got us there without a problem.
Check In Out:
No, very smooth and Laura made it easy. She was great.

Overall:
Exceeded our expectations.
Enjoyed Most:
View; modern, clean layout; conveniences; ample parking space; bikes available.
Enjoyed Least:
Sharp turn into the parking area.
Surrounding Area:
Lakefront location and views spectacular, many restaurants nearby. If you like golf, wonderful course within easy drive. Quiet section of road. Cafe with lovely view of lake across the street convenient for morning coffee and evening drinks. Police station across the street so very safe and secure.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Menaggio was within easy walking distance. Plenty of parking if one preferred to drive to the town centre.
Directions:
We did not use a GPS and had no trouble finding the villa. We had located it on a map prior to our arrival and had a sense of where to head. It is a very quick turn, easy to miss but also easy to make a u-turn in the park just past the villa.
Check In Out:
Very easy check in with Laura who made it very simple. We had been told we needed a photocopy of our passports which was not the case. Laura photographed the documents with her phone and we were all set.
