Great location and size. Great base for exploring Varenna and Lake Como. A few of the facilities were a bit tired or clunky and you need to being basics if you are self-catering (oil, salt, pepper etc.).

Perfect spot

Varenna itself was a little quiet when we stayed but the location was perfect. We had a slight challenge finding the apartment but other than that all was excellent

Great location

The location was excellent and while it was not a lake front view, we could see the lake by looking out certain windows. The villa was clean and comfortable but as others mentioned the amenities were severely lacking. There was no dish soap and only a dirty cloth to wipe counters which I threw away. We bought more tp as there was not enough for the days we were there. I would suggest installing a few hooks for towels and a shelf to place things on in the bathroom. We felt secure staying there. One thing we did not know until we checked out is that the gate can be opened from inside the complex. That would have made it easier for our two couples staying there. Directions and photos sent to locate the villa and gain access were very helpful.

Great location and property

We stayed for 5 nights and had a great time at this property. The space is really lovely. There is a cute little balcony with a view of the lake. The only negative is that there is no AC and there was a heat wave for two days…but it was managed with the fans ok. Would recommend again.

Great property, perfect location!!

Great property with all the amenities & perfect location! Very clean & comfortable! Great welcoming package! To be forewarned, there is no full length mirrors, only one mirror above the bathroom sink. Other than that, it’s a perfect place to stay when you visit Varenna!

Could have been 5 stars

This was instantly 5 stars. We loved the unit and the location is fantastic. Downstairs is a spacious living room with 2 sofas, a kitchen, dining area with table and a balcony. Upstairs are 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and a washer.The problems came because of management. We rented the apartment for 12 days. Within the first day, we notified management of 3 issues; 1)The bathroom light was out (the 1st night, we took our phones in for light- after that we took in a small table lamp) 2) the top shelf of the dishwasher was off the rail-- couldn't even close it, so dishwasher was unavailable 3) the stair light was also out.Not only were these not repaired while we were there, but management never even responded. So, over time, the rating went from 5 stars to 4 to 3.

Fabulous Location

This apartment is in a fabulous location, though Varenna is small so everything is close by. The apartment is spare but has plenty of space and great light and views. Please be aware, the kitchen appliances didn't work other than the fridge.

September 2016 Hi there! We had a GREAT time. Thanks! The home was lovely, the location couldn't be better, and the price was very reasonable. The directions were clear, although adding in directions from the train station would be great, too. And providing the wireless password would be helpful as well. Elaine, UK

In my opinion, the best views of Varenna

Hidden gem in Varenna. This 2bdrm apartment is amazing and has incredible views. There is one spot where you can look out of opposite windows and see the lake from both ❤️. Wonderfully comfortable setup with the balcony, kitchen and living room downstairs, and 2 bedrooms upstairs. There is a lockbox and security gate, for entry, and a 3 floor climb. Located just 100 ft from the town center, everything in town is within walking distance. Wonderful location, wonderful apartment and beautiful views. Whether there for family or vacation, this is an ideal alternative to a hotel, if you would like the added privacy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return for another.

The good, the bad, and the ugly:The good: location is fantastic, steps away from both the main piazza and waterfront restaurants/ shops.Good views of the lake and landscape from the windows, and plenty spacious for family of 4.Check in directions plentiful and clear.The bad: When it is hot, this unit is difficult because the bedrooms are basically in an attic. Keeping the windows open all night resulted in mosquitoes and beetles coming in all night. The ugly: 1. No keys in the lock box. Call to the rental office and they queried whether another from my party had already received the keys. We ultimately find out that another family had checked in as their paperwork erroneously had put our rental as theirs. (They were ultlimately placed in apt B). Because they had already used showers/towels, cleaners had to come back out. so that whole hassle was almost 2 hours after having traveled all day to get there.2. Inside, we found remnants of a broken shower door in the kitchen cabinet with numerous tiny pieces of the broken glass. the portion of the broken shower door had been replaced by a shower curtain. We swept out the glass from the kitchen but had to contact the rental co again.3. The knob to the dead bolt on the front door was nonfunctional, so you could not lock the door while in the apartment, onlyl from the outside. That did get fixedThe potential is sky high, but the issues detailed above ulitmately detracted from our experience

Cute place off a lovely piazza but...

Place itself was great and as described (except for the bathroom) but not easy to find with directions given (stay left/on higher road, do not go down to the waterfront or you will be wheeling luggage over cobblestones and lugging up killer stone steps!!!) we wandered for an hour unable to get in touch with the office & GPS fail until a kind local helped us. It is off a very cute piazza with an old church and restaurants. Inside the shower door is flimsy and leaks, as did the sink at its base-we notified office, also asked for extra towels since we used ours to mop up but got no response. Towel rack was broken and no hooks to hang towels. Water pressure was great though. Blow dryer was broken and only worked in one outlet in the kitchen. Beds are soft. Could use better communication with the property manager--however we contacted we were told to contact the local team and no one ever responded.

Erheblicher Instandhaltungsstau

Folgende Mängel:1. Diverse nicht funktionierende Lichtschalter (Leuchtmittel fehlt)2. Einige defekte oder beschädigte Vorhänge.3. Oberer Korb der Spülmaschine defekt.4. Tür zum Balkon defekt (Wasser läuft bei Starkregen in die Wohnung)5. Falsche Steckdose für Toaster, Wasserkocher und Mikrowelle. Es fehlt der Schutzleiter. Gefahr für Leben bei Defekt am Gerät.6. Spülung an Toilette läuft häufig durch und stoppt nicht automatisch.7. Sehr wenige kleine Löffel und Messer und normale Frühstücksteller.Zudem ist es in Varenna extrem schwierig einen Parkplatz zu finden. Fast alle Plätze sind gebührenpflichtig und kosten pro Tag 17. Die Plätze sind schon ab dem Vormittag belegt. Der Ort wird bei gutem Wetter praktisch von Menschen überrannt..

Very nice apartment if you are comfortable with 3rd floor stairs and another story in the unit. Location is incredible. Nice welcome basket with wine, comfortable bedding. Could have paid more attention to detail like providing the wifi password, dish towels and hot pads etc.

This property is in a fantastic location in Varenna. My only suggestions would be in improve communications. Providing information about Wifi and password as well as how to operate the electronic gate and front door would have been very useful. Also 24 h phone contact number does not get answered.

Hot hot too hot

Property was bare bones. Nice stairwell ,floors, quality built building. There was No soap for dishwasher no paper towels and bare minimum kitchen supplies. There was a heat wave in lake Como and the two upstairs bedrooms were uninhabitable due to the temperature. The host provided fans but they were insufficient. I do not recommend this place if the temperature in Como is over 27° during the day. Spring fall winter would stay here again.

Locatie is top; groot apartement op perfecte locatie

Fijn apartement met 2 slaapkamers met 2 eenpersoons bedden. Helaas zijn de slaapkamers op zolder en was het warm; er is geen airconditioning en dat mis je echt als het 36 gr C is. Ook is het inchecken erg onpersoonlijk; de beschrijving foto’s zijn duidelijk, maar t komt erg onpersoonlijk over. Ook kan je niet met auto voor de deur komen en is er geen lift; dus beter niet een zware koffer meenemen. Het huis ligt wel perfect centraal met een leuk restaurant eronder (prato). Het balkon viel een beetje tegen, want daar kan je eigenlijk niet opzitten met meer dan een.

Varenna is beautiful

The property met our expectations. It was convenient to do all the things we wanted. Beds were comfortable, plenty of fans to keep us cool in hot weather, nice appliances and lovely view from tiny balcony. Where our discontent with this property was as follows. When we arrived there was no key in the lockbox as stated by our email. We had travelled over six hours to get there and were very tired. I called the office and was told we could go to their office to get the key which was on the other side of the lake which meant we would have to take a ferry there, find the office and return to Varenna. This was not an option for us and requested it was there responsibility to have key in place. With phone calls back and forth, to sum it up we spent over two hours sitting in hallway with our luggage waiting to get into apartment. The person who finally show up was very nice and said it was his day off and he came from another town. He said cleaning people probably took the key. When I emailed them the next day saying how disappointed we were with their help they said they would give 10% off next visit. I am 76 and was on a trip with my grandchildren. I would not be returning to use the 10% and felt they could have been more caring. Secondly, the directions from train arrival were nil. We had to keep asking people as we entered the town for directions. The picture directions once we found post office were good. Varenna is a beautiful little place and offers many things to do. Food is good, Ferry rides to other towns lovely and flowers were beautiful as well as restaurant clerks and those in the stores.

Updated como flat

Nicely redone, comfortable apartment in a great location. Perfect to explore the lake region. Check in was total crap. Spent an hour trying to find the place which was not even close, after traveling all day. Apparently we were supposed to have the 10 page instructions with pictures to find it, which was in the flat. After expressing my feelings to concierge, could not get them to answer
