Looking for a family-friendly apartment with knockout views? This home, on the northern side of Lake Como, should do nicely. Granted, the bedroom's interiors may feel pared back for some, but the main living space opening onto that lengthy private balcony makes up for that. The shared small garden downstairs with a barbecue and Boccia is a nice touch, too. Although only four kilometres from the shops, bakeries, gelateria, restaurants and pebble beach of Domaso, this apartment is on a steep hillside. We recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.

Home truths

    A cot and high chair can be provided for little ones – just request with your host in advance.

    Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car. There’s private parking for one car and further public parking within 50 metres of the apartment.

    The apartment is located on the first floor and has no lift. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home.

    The fireplace is for decoration purposes only.

    The second bedroom with a double bed is on the small side, although there’s everything you need for a comfortable night’s sleep.

    At full occupancy, the sofa in the living room won't fit everyone. However, there's plenty of space to spill out around the dining table.
