Our stay was outstanding. On a 10 point scale our stay was a 15!!!Gulia and her family were outstanding in every way. They were always asking how our 2 week stay was going and available to assist with restaurant suggestions, parking issues and anything needed to allow us to have a great stay! When we had parking issues as the town was very restricted they even offered (and did) drop off and pick up to the house for special restaurant dates. They became great friends. This was our 45th anniversary trip and the great place and their professionalism made this an unforgettable experience. Everything was better than we'd expected. You will not be disappointed!!

My wife & I had a lovely stay at this Bellagio home. It is pretty well centered - about 20 min walk to the tourist-y part of the city. The balcony is beautiful to enjoy a bottle of wine. It was spacious and we felt right at home!Pro Tip - we flew into Milan and hired a private driver from Transfeero. The drive itself was quick and easy, about an hour and a half, and it wasn’t terribly expensive (100-150). The driver was able to drop us off right in front of the home. The alternative was to take the train to Varenna, followed by the ferry to Bellagio, and a 2km walk (with bags & incline) to the house. If you’re not renting a car, I would highly suggest this approach.

We chose this house with the hopes of feeling like a local. It did not let us down. Cute, Clean, Cozy and Complete. Low wood ceilings upstairs, incredible Lake and Mountain View from the main floor living room, and cool, ground level kitchen and outdoor dining with fireplace. A cobblestone path out front connects you to the small lakefront town of San Giovanni. Wonderful walk to 2 markets and Bellagio are easy and delightful. Giullia was quick to respond, accurate with details, and a delight to work with. Home includes 1 spiral staircase, connecting ground floor and 1st floor. A narrow staircase led you from the living room to the upstairs bathroom and 2 bedrooms. Sunrises were beautiful, and a delight to hear distant conversations from walkers or occasional neighbors which helped to feel at home. Would stay here again....Thank you Giullia!
