Grab a taste of authentic Italian lakeside living at this apartment set in Menaggio on the western shore of Lake Como. Fill your days with lakeside walks and people-watching in the pretty piazza (a fifteen-minute walk). But if you’re tempted to roam further, Bellagio and Varenna are easily reached via the nearby ferry terminal. Back at the apartment, while the interiors will feel a little pared-back for some, it’s thoughtfully equipped for two. The real draw here, though, lies outdoors. A private garden veranda and shared swimming pool overlooking the lake and mountains make it an idyllic spot to unwind after a day of exploring.
