This historic home, owned by a Swiss noble family, is nestled on the shores of Lake Como. It’s a luxurious, unforgettable retreat, with sun-drenched terraces and lakefront gardens. The private pool and Jacuzzi look out onto Lake Como, which you can explore by boat thanks to the private dock. The sophisticated villa is full of antiques and curated artwork, with a splendid double living room that opens to the gardens and those mesmerising lake views. Warm and inviting, this home blends timeless elegance and modern comfort. 

Como Bliss

Nestled in the heart of Sala Comacina, this fuss-free apartment is an ideal base for a family or small group of friends on an Italian adventure. While the home offers everything you could need for a relaxing stay, the stand-out for us is the outdoor space. From the private balcony, you can drink in views of Lake Como – just the spot for a morning coffee or evening limoncello. And if that doesn’t tick all your holiday boxes, there’s a communal swimming pool to enjoy here too, perfect to beat the heat of the day. 

Como's Delight

A reflection of the rich, diverse culture of Italy, this attic-style home is a seamless union of modern minimalism and traditional opulence. Rustic stone walls, warm wooden beams and flooring are contrasted with cool whites and neutral-toned furniture, creating an ambience that’s just as sprightly as it is calming. The upper-level living area leads out to a cosy terrace with vistas of Como’s magnificent landscape, while a chandelier elegantly illuminates a dining area that’s ideal for a homemade feast. You’ll always be inclined to start your mornings with a soak in the master bathroom as the luxurious gold fittings will leave you feeling like you’re in a milk bath fit for royalty. And it’s tranquility inside and out with this home, as the sandy beaches lining the shores of Lake Como are just a short walk away. 

Timber Creek

One glance at those Lake Como views and you'll fall in love with this cosy and romantic flat. There's nothing better than sitting around the dining table, sipping wine, nibbling on antipasti and watching the water ebb and flow out the window. Later on, snuggle up on the cushy sofas with a book or get comfortable in the bedrooms, resting up for an adventure-filled day. The design is a delightful mishmash of mid-century modern, classic Italian character and clean, contemporary style. Although it's compact, the cheery yellow kitchen is sure to put a smile on your face as you're rustling up breakfast, and with two showers, you won't have to worry about queuing in the mornings.

Location-wise, Carate Urio has oodles of old-world charm and an authentic, local atmosphere. Enjoy a cappuccino right by the water, then sprawl out on the small beach for a spot of sunbathing and swimming. In the evenings, stroll along the steeped, winding lanes in the village before grabbing a bite to eat at the traditional restaurants. And when you fancy exploring further afield, catch the ferry from Urio's dock (only a short walk away) to travel to Como.

By the Light of the Lake

Just a short stroll from the lake, this apartment brings you to the magical heart of Como. You’ll find everything you could on the doorstep with an abundant selection of shops, restaurants and cafes in the neighbourhood. The train station is also a short walk away and there is paid parking available nearby. It’s worth noting the apartment is set across two floor with stairs, but you will find plenty of space to stretch out and unwind with a cosy living room and three snug bedrooms. 

Como Comfort

Modern, bright and beautiful as it is, nothing's going to beat the outdoor area here. With ample seating, including an alfresco dining table under a flowering pergola, looking out over the glistening lake, you can see why this one made our collection. We also like the bathtub facing the door so you can even admire the views from inside. Because of the perched location of this home, you'll have to climb steps up to it, but it'll all be worth it for the breathtaking panorama of Lake Como. Speak to your host about boat trips, helicopter rides and more.

The Lake

This home has bagged itself a prime spot on the shores of Lake Como. And with a private pool, terrace, and lounge all overlooking the water, you’ve plenty of places to savour the view. The villa is well set up for a group getaway, with communal areas and quiet spots to suit your mood. And all of the bedrooms are en-suite so there won’t be any queues for the shower in the morning. To make your holiday even more special, your host can arrange for a private chef to cook for you in the home. And when you’re ready to explore, you’ll find beaches, hiking trails, and lakeside villages within easy reach by public transport or car.

Lake of Dreams

Tucked away in the centre of Como's charming old town, this superb apartment surprises and delights with an extraordinary blend of ornate original features and cutting-edge design to create a unique and luxurious offering on the edge of northern Italy's most prestigious lake.

The owners have poured their heart and soul into a sympathetic restoration that makes a deliberate feature of some of the more patinated interior elements. In particular, double-height, frescoed ceilings draw the eye upward in the spacious and comfortable living room with beautiful mouldings on the walls and its two gorgeous bedrooms – undoubtedly the home's standout rooms.

The city of Como is a fantastic place to base yourself to explore some of the small lakeside settlements. It boasts a vibrant atmosphere, outstanding eateries and bougie boutiques, all within a stone's throw of your front door. Stroll a short distance to the harbour, where local ferries depart for the likes of Bellagio, Varenna and Menaggio. In addition, active types might want to head into the mountains for scenic hikes, where each turn reveals ever more spectacular views.

Como Crystal

In the mountainous peninsula between the two “legs” of Lake Como, this villa sits in splendid isolation. Manicured gardens surround the traditionally ochre-hued villa where towering trees hide secret swings, picnic benches and even a spot for badminton. There’s a patio for dining in the sunshine and here you’ll hear nothing but the cheep and pip of birdsong. 

An ivy-covered front and typically green-shuttered windows greet you at the end of a long driveway. Inside, terracotta floors keep things cool underfoot and wooden ceilings are reminiscent of the old world. A huge stone fireplace crowns the main lounge, complete with the villa’s old family crest. There are plenty of seating nooks tucked away in this home to hide with a good book. Chefs will love the traditionally Italian kitchen, which has been upgraded from its farmhouse days with granite worktops, but you can still feels the bones of the old kitchen in the wood-topped hearth (now home to a microwave and working bread oven). 

Dining can be a formal affair in the separate dining room, illuminated by a medieval-looking candelabra, or a casual breakfast just off the kitchen.

In terms of location, you’re secluded away between the mountains, but the shore of Lake Como is a short drive. Head to Bellagio, where cobbled streets lead to the lake shore and water taxis head out onto the water – it’s just a ten-minute drive away.

Jasmine & Terracotta

This unique home might be just as impressive as it’s surroundings. Perched on the edge of Lake Como, you’ll be welcomed by mesmerising views, a private pool and plenty of character. There’s also a wonderful shaded terrace with a barbecue – perfect for magical sunset meals. Inside, the rooms are an art lovers dream with Art Nouveau style furnishings blending seamlessly with contemporary comforts. You can admire the lake while lounging in the bedrooms – most of which have access to balconies. It’s also extremely well-connected. From here, you can take boat trips, wander into Torno or adventure further afield towards Como. 

Como's Jewel

Immerse yourself in the views of Lake Como from this apartment’s terrace. Inside, the well-designed open-plan living space has a modern kitchen, and the lounge area has a sofa bed for guest three. Another highlight of this home is its location – you’ll be within walking distance of many of the city of Como’s attractions, including Palazzo del Broletto, Giardini Tempio Voltiano and the cathedral. Or let the host arrange a boat trip to see some of the surrounding towns and villages from the water.

Lake & City View

Tailor-made for two, this chic apartment promises a relaxing stay in Como. As you’d expect with a studio, space is limited here, but you’ll find everything needed for a comfortable stay. And the cherry on top for us is the outdoor space. Soak up the sun as you dine alfresco, kick back on a lounger with your holiday read, or simply drink in the views across Como and the lake. Location-wise, you’re mere minutes from the historic city centre and Lake Como, so whether you’re sightseeing, shopping or planning a meal out, this home will tick all your boxes.
