Situated a stone’s throw from Lake Como and within walking distance of the charming town of Lierna, this apartment guarantees peace and quiet for a small family or close-knit group of friends. The living space and main bedroom benefit from views of the water, and if you want to get a closer look, we recommend heading down to the communal garden and swimming pool. Keen to put your feet up as soon as you arrive? Your host provides a welcome pack as an optional add-on.

This villa overlooks the town of Bellagio and enjoys stunning mountain views. The kitchen and certain bathrooms might be a little dated, but the range of amenities makes this home great for families or couples. The wine cellar is well-stocked and the home gym is well-equipped, while the sauna and private pool offer fun and relaxation for all ages. Topping it all off is the private pool with sweeping views of Lake Como. We love this location not only for its beauty but for its practicality – you'll want a car for ease of getting around, but it's only a two-minute drive to the nearest restaurants and shops.

Perched on a promontory that juts out into Lake Como, this villa provides guests with plenty of opportunity to look out over stunning lakeside vistas, backgrounded by the mighty Alps. Below, the quaint village of Bellagio invitingly reveals its cobbled streets and elegant lakeside villas, completing the panoramic views.

The villa doesn’t just offer views, though. Its heated swimming pool allows you to see snowy mountain caps in perfect comfort, and inside you’ll be able to build up a sweat in your own private gym and Turkish sauna. 
In the evenings, once you’ve caught the sunset over Lake Como, you might want to make your way down into your wine cellar and enjoy the finest local wines, or head into Bellagio and sample its fantastic foods.

Although the villa offers tranquillity, you’re not far from the city either. Its location allows for short drives to cities like Milan, Bergamo, and Como, and you can also enjoy making the short trip across the border into Switzerland to visit Lugano.

The villa’s excellent location also invites you to enjoy hikes and boat trips around the lake, along with other outdoor activities such as tennis and golf.

Located on the edge of Lake Como, this historic home welcomes you to an atmospheric waterfront escape. Combining tradition and contemporary comfort, the rooms are well suited to groups in search of ease and relaxation. Highlights include the sweet little balcony and the views, plus your host can arrange welcome packs and housekeeping. It’s worth noting the stairs do not have a handrail so this may not be the best option for families with young children, but you will find this is a great base for a lakeside adventure. From here, it’s a short stroll to cafes, bars and restaurants, while the ferry is just 400 metres away.

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.

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.

Nice to haves

The views of Lake Como from this home are simply gorgeous – we could sit on the balcony here gazing out over the gently rippling water to the mountains for hours. You can enjoy the incredible vistas from the terrace too, where you can relax on the sun loungers or dine alfresco. Whip up some tortelli di zucca in the sleek, dove grey kitchen for dinner. On chilly evenings gather around the fire or get some rest in the stylish bedrooms with their ornate wallpaper. 

Situated in Argegno, there are a range of eateries within a five-minute walk. Further afield, the alpine city of Lecco, with its splendid Basilica di San Nicolò, is eleven minutes in the car. Or walk the trails of the stunning Monte Barro Regional Park, a sixteen-minute drive from this lovely home.



Watching The Boats Go By

Jacuzzi

Desk

Views of Lake Como don't come much better than this – and neither do penthouse locations. You're within walking distance of Fiumelatte for evening meals and the train station (just 300 metres away) for trips to nearby historic Varenna. Rather travel by boat? Hop on the ferry (a three-kilometre drive away) to glitzy Bellagio and beyond. Back home, the main bedroom suite, with its dressing area and Jacuzzi for two, more than delivers. However, it's worth noting that the headspace in the mezzanine second bedroom is low and better suited for children. But for those jaw-dropping views from the private terrace, we can forgive that.

Sunset On The Lake

Parking On Street

Free Parking On Street

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

Outdoor Pool

Free Parking

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

Luxury Toiletries

Beautiful Lake Como is just 100 metres from this home, while other attractions nearby include the pretty Giardini del Tempio Voltiano with its museum, just over a five-minute walk away. Or head to Como Cathedral and Basilica di San Fedele – both are around five minutes on foot. There are a variety of cafés and restaurants for lunch on your doorstep, or head back to this elegant apartment. 

Open up the French doors to the Juliet balcony and take a seat on the comfy sofa to rest your feet for a while. We love the living room with its polished wood floors and vases of cream flowers. Whip up an insalata caprese in the modern kitchen and enjoy it at your dining table next to the wall adorned with giant cutlery. This home is the perfect retreat for a couple or solo traveller looking for easy access to the lake.

Nestled in the hills of Cernobbio, this eco-friendly home offers a serene escape for a family or group of friends. There’s so much to love about this home, with plenty of space to spread out and enjoy some quiet time or socialise as a group. But, the standout for us is the view. Whether you’re drinking in the lake vistas from the indoor or outdoor space, it’s something you’ll never tire of. And, when the scenery pulls you in, it’s a mere four-minute drive to town and the lake, where delicious Italian eateries and adventures await. 

Timeless Tranquillity

Overlooking Piazza Volta, this apartment has a prime location. You’ll be a short stroll from the lake and many of the city’s attractions. One of the main highlights of this apartment is the vistas from the bedrooms overlooking the lake. There’s also a desk in the main bedroom if you need to work while away. We love the two small balconies as well – perfect for enjoying the atmosphere of the piazza. This is the place to book to experience the heart of the city.


Lago Vita

Lift Access

If you’re seeking the kind of serenity that comes from enjoying far-reaching views across a glassy lake, this could be the home for you. As you’d expect with a studio, space is limited here, but it’s a cosy place for two. And, step out into the garden, and you can while away the hours drinking in the vistas over a bottle of wine. The kitchenette is ideal for basic food, but for a substantial meal full of authentic Italian flavours, head to one of the many local restaurants in Laglio for a dinner to remember.

Lake Dreams

This practical apartment is located in the charming town of Lierna on the banks of Lake Como. It's contemporary, albeit a tad basic, but you can't beat the picturesque views from the private balcony. Head down into the shared garden and you'll find a communal pool ideal for afternoon dips. We think it's a great base from which to explore the region. Not only are a few shops, restaurants, and a small beach within walking distance, but you can also reach Lecco by car and Belaggio by ferry.

Sunset by the Lake

Rooftop Terrace

This contemporary apartment is located in Via Tommaso Grossi in Como, offering panoramic views of the city and lake from the communal rooftop terrace. We love the sleek interiors of this home, which provides a comfortable stay for a family or group of friends. Just note – as a party of five, two people will draw the short straw and sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. Still, it’s a sacrifice we’d be willing to make for this pad’s enviable location. If the views tempt you out for a meander, you’ll find Como at your feet just waiting to be explored. 

A Picture of Como

If you’re in search of a lakeside adventure, this apartment delivers an easy solution. Nestled in the heart of Lierna, it’s just a short stroll to the water’s edge and you can walk to local restaurants, cafes and bakeries. It’s also possible to walk to the beach and the nearest ferry stop – meaning it’s easy to explore iconic sights across Lake Como. Back at home, you’ll be treated to beautiful views from the private terrace. There’s also a cosy living room for laidback evenings, while the bedrooms are simple and well suited to families.  


Lake of Bliss

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.

Set within the grounds of the owner’s home, this charming villa brings you the best of Italy. Comfortable for a family or group of friends, you’ll find everything needed for a relaxing stay here, but the icing on the cake for us is the outdoor space. Sun-kissed terraces, alfresco dining opportunities and views across Lake Como – what’s not to love? If you can tear yourself away, live like a local in ​​Tremezzo where pizzerias and authentic Italian food awaits. And of course, a trip out on Lake Como itself is a must – it’s the perfect place to soak up the scenery. 

A Breath of Nature

Parking On Premises

Arrive in style at this lakeside property on board a resplendent Riva speedboat, thanks to its private jetty. Disembark and step inside to discover a spacious and stylish open-plan living area and kitchen, kitted out with all the culinary accoutrements you might need to whip up delicious homemade meals, just like nonna used to make.

From the living room, not only will you enjoy access to a private balcony through two sets of French doors, but also awe-inspiring panoramic views capable of bringing a tear to the eye. The soothing atmosphere of the bedrooms will help you relax after your journey, while there's a good amount of storage space so you can unpack and settle in. The main bedroom even finds room for a desk and enjoys access to an en-suite shower room.

When you're not sunbathing and swimming in the lake, explore the surrounding village of Laglio. With slopes full of vineyards and olive groves, and pastel-coloured villas, it's one of the most elegant lakeside locations. But don't take our word for it. George Clooney purchased his nearby eighteenth-century estate back in 2002 and still returns multiple times a year, some two decades later.

Ocean's Eleven

Sound System

Hot Tub

Nestled on the hillside in Como, this villa serves up panoramic lake and mountain views that you’ll never tire of. Set across four floors, there’s plenty of space for an extended family or group of friends to spread out here, or come together to socialise. With a private gym, hot tub, and games area, you’ll find plenty to occupy your time, too. Keen to explore further? Hop in the car – it’s a short drive to Como and Cernobbio, where fine Italian eateries and adventures on the lake await. 

The Lake of Love

Situated just a stone's throw away from beautiful Lake Como, this apartment is ideal for a relaxing break. We love the barrel-vaulted ceilings here and there’s a side view of the lake and a bright living room which sleeps guests three and four on a sofa bed. The location is great for strolls along the shore and the funicular to the village of Brunate is nearby, making exploring easy. This home is also very close to the centre of Como with its shops, restaurants, and landmarks.

Lake Como Elegance

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. 

Como Classic

Paid Parking On Street

Safe

Located on a picturesque square in the centre of Como, this apartment is a playful mixture of tradition and modernity. You only have to look at the sleek kitchen island sitting underneath wooden ceiling beams, or the stone basin in an otherwise contemporarily styled bathroom to see what we mean.

The stark white walls, large windows and generous amount of space make the interior feel light and airy. However, if opening the shutters isn't quite cooling enough for you, there's always the option of stepping out onto the home's private terrace, which has a corner bench on which to enjoy warm summer evenings.

There are plenty of wine bars and restaurants in the adjoining square and the surrounding streets, but perhaps the most important thing to note is that the southern bank of Lake Como can be reached in barely a minute's walk. From this excellent position, it's so easy to fill your days with boat trips, mountain rambles and dips in the crystalline waters.



A Month by the Lake

With scenic views over Lake Como and direct access onto the terrace from all three bedrooms, this apartment is perfect for small groups. It's located in the charming town of Nesso, with lakefront walking paths, restaurants and bars within easy reach. Plus, Como is just a short drive away for sightseeing ventures. 

Inside, you'll find plenty of space for your group to spread out and unwind with two sitting areas, an elegant dining room, and a study area for those working remotely. Just note that the kitchen is on the small side, and better suited for preparing light bites rather than large meals. 

Nesso Nook

Set in the village of Brunate, this home offers wonderful views of Lake Como from its large terrace. Inside this apartment is impressive too with its high ceilings in the open-plan living space – there’s a second living area on the mezzanine too. Location-wise, there are a variety of local eateries and artisan shops or take a ride over to the city of Como where you’ll find an array of attractions. Or you can immerse yourself in nature with the many hiking trails through the forests here.

Brunate Vista

Bicycles

Enjoy timeless charm at this historic lakeside retreat. This beautiful home sits on the shores of Lake Como and boasts wonderful views, to be enjoyed from inside and out, thanks to large windows in almost every room. The house is surrounded by a private park planted with an olive grove, bamboo forest, azaleas, and acacias. There’s a barbecue and a shaded dining area outside, and a stunning kitchen at the heart of the home – and your host can arrange a private chef. The year-round-heated pool, gym, and tennis court mean there’s no chance of boredom here. 

Acacias on the Lake

EV Charger

Perched by Lake Como, this villa caught our eye thanks to its beautiful surroundings – best enjoyed from the infinity pool or terrace. Inside, sliding doors connect the open living space to the outdoor area, where you'll find sun loungers, a dining table, and a barbecue. Spread over four floors with an internal lift, there's also a fully equipped home gym, complete with a sauna and spa shower. Upstairs, two of the bedrooms benefit from sweeping lake views, and there's a study area for those working remotely. And, when you're ready to explore, it's just a short drive from the city of Como – the villa also comes with garage parking.

Lake Love Letters

Effortlessly elegant and ideally located in Piazza Guido Grimoldi – right in the heart of Como – this apartment is a treat for those looking for a comfortable, central stay. 

From its glossy parquet floors to its double-height ceilings and pared-back contemporary decor, there’s a feeling of simple sophistication here that perfectly reflects the distinctly grand building in which this home is housed. 

Open up the living room’s French doors to step out onto the private piazza-facing balcony – the ideal spot to enjoy an early morning espresso or an evening spritz at sundown. When it’s time for bed, both bedrooms wait to drift you into a peaceful night’s sleep, ensuring you feel rested and ready for another day of adventure upon waking.

Speaking of fun, ask your host to organise a boat tour of Lake Como or a local wine tasting and cooking class. Alternatively, head out to discover Como’s picturesque streets on foot, with Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta a two-minute walk away, Basilica di San Fedele a five-minute stroll and Tempio Voltiano walkable in ten.

Como Cardinale

Sightseeing is a breeze at this apartment in the heart of Como. Whether you're keen to explore on foot or head out on the water, you couldn't ask for a better position in the town. But aside from the setting, we love how bright, cosy, and comfortable this apartment is. It seamlessly blends the traditional with the modern – think exposed brick fireplace, stained glass windows, and terracotta floors. The cherry on top is the private terrace, where you can sit with a glass of wine and enjoy the evening sunshine.

Como Sunshine

Resort Access

Positioned close to the centre of the lakeside town of Cernobbio, this light and spacious apartment keeps good company, a stone's throw from some of Lake Como's most illustrious villas.

The open-plan interior is chic and contemporary, which will appeal to lovers of an uncluttered, minimalist aesthetic. Head through to the two bedrooms and you'll discover that they follow a similar ethos, with gold accents adding a touch of glamour to proceedings.

Step outside and discover Villa Bernasconi just steps away – one of the best examples of Art Nouveau architecture in the whole of Italy. Walk towards the lake and you'll encounter Villa Erba, which is used to host some of the most exclusive events in the world, as well as making cameos in the occasional Hollywood movie. For the outdoorsy types, Cernobbio is the jumping-off point for many picturesque mountain hikes including the eighty-eight mile Via dei Monti Lariani, though you're more than welcome just to do a small section.

Lakeside Promenade

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.
