Villa Reverie was the perfect spot for our Lake Como stay. It checked all of the boxes. The views were absolutely stunning, beds comfortable, breakfast convenient (omelet, meats/cheese/fruits/pastries), and property very clean. We really preferred the location to others on the lake as well. Bellano itself doesn't really have much to do outside of the Gorge (must do!), but the ferry and train stations are only a 10-15 minute walk. They are not nearly as crowded as other locations and we were able to still find "fast" ferry options everywhere we wanted to go. Just plan ahead. The hotel is also only a 10 minute drive to Varenna and we were able to park there for about 6 euros each night for dinner in a public parking garage. Varenna had amazing restaurants along the water and cobblestone streets. We were also able to park at the hotel, which was super helpful if you have a car. The owners were very kind, helpful, and knowledgeable about the area. Wonderful stay!
