Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Lugano

This was my favorite place we stayed while on a 2 week trip to Europe. The beauty of the surroundings along with the amazing views made this a wonderful stay for us. Additionally, the gesture of leaving us fruit and cookies was a very nice touch. We felt at home and safe the whole time.

We (two families, four children), felt very comfortable with Bruno. The house is comfortably and functionally furnished. Only a little inconvenient: There is only one toilet on the basement, which can be reached via a relatively steep staircase. Otherwise: beautiful, quiet environment, great playground nearby, forest, creek. Beautiful veranda. And Lugano can be reached quickly by public transport and car. The communication with Bruno was always friendly, he very helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend staying with him.

We had such a great time visiting here. It was a bit of a walk to the house but very doable. Couldn’t recommend this place enough. Riccardo was extremely responsive during our visit too. Menaggio was the perfect area to stay at Lake Como. All of the charm and half of the crowds. We Hope to come back again someday.

Spectacular scenery and beautifully designed property

Loved the surroundings — so clean and peaceful. The place was well-equipped with everything we needed, and the host was super responsive and kind. Made our trip really easy and relaxing. Would happily book again!

Michele’s Airbnb is truly exceptional! The photos are beautiful, but the apartment is even more stunning in person. We loved the peaceful setting away from the crowds—it was the perfect place to relax and take in the breathtaking views. The apartment was fully equipped with everything we needed and was especially well-suited for my dad, who uses a wheelchair. We felt so comfortable and at home. I’ll definitely stay here again the next time I’m in Como. It was hard to say goodbye!

Difficult to access but worth it as the place is well designed, very quiet and private. The outdoor area is very enjoyable. Great place for a quiet stay.

Despite bad weather, we had a very relaxing week in this very idyllically located cozy house. The house is carefully renovated and tastefully decorated. The location is unique: all alone on a clearing in the forest. We will be happy to come back.

We had a serene, peaceful & wonderful time staying at Silvia’s place. We felt totally at home and we couldn’t get over how amazing the views were! The home is lovely and cosy and we enjoyed having breakfasts outside in the crisp mornings & lighting the fire in the evenings as we cosied up. Everything was clean and decorated nicely. The kitchen was stocked with pots, pans and utensils which made it easy for us to cook our own meals whilst we were there. The pool area is stunning and we enjoyed playing on the tennis table too. We loved seeing Silvia’s animals around the grounds including extremely friendly cats, dogs & even some tortoises! Silvia was extremely responsive and helpful and she was there to personally greet us as we drove toward the property. She gave us great local recommendations and was a very polite and sweet lady. The area itself is breathtakingly beautiful, we felt like we had the place to ourselves as we wandered the streets of gravedona. Would recommend!

Everything was perfect!! The apartment was spacious, well furnished and so comfortable!! Kitchen was well stocked with premier utensils. The location was great to explore the waterfront and beautiful surroundings. We parked in the 30 minute lot at the head of the street to load and unload. The parking pass that he provided for us was a key benefit. We would highly recommend Stefano’s apartment and would surely stay there again.

Absolutely wonderful stay and amazing host. The apartment was exactly as described and the views and location were perfect. We loved sitting on the balcony, looking over the water and watching and hearing the people below. There are 2 wine bars just outside the door and also many restaurants. Alberto picked us up at the station and explained the apartment and area. Giorgio’s kindness was immeasurable. The trains had unexpectedly stopped running and he personally booked our transportation back to Milan and drove us to meet a new express bus. We could have never done this without him, as this was unpublished at the time. What a wonderful man! Varenna is a beautiful small village and there are many outstanding restaurants and things to do. Our highlight was taking a cooking class with Chef Marco, Chef’s Table, and later dining at his new restaurant, La Scarpetta. We recommend visiting the villas in town, taking the Taxi Boat to Villa Balbianello and hiking to the waterfall in Fiumelatte.

It’s very beautiful and clean villa and convenient location!

Amazing airbnb!! truly spectacular — the photos do not do it justice. Great location in Lierna. It was beautiful and peaceful without flocks of tourists. Walking distance to anything you need. You do have to pay attention to train schedules if you want to visit other towns, but the trains are easy to navigate. Excellent quiet location to come home to after a day out. Nice quiet beach areas with gelato shops. Would definitely stay here again!

We loved being able to sit on the balcony enjoying the view of the lake. Mattia made us fell at home and quickly responded to any request we had. We would stay here again.

This is a delightful apartment right on the lakes edge. The view in the mornings, evenings, and throughout the day are to die for. The area is lovely and quiet and restful and the perfect place away from it all. If you are interested in walking, it is a very short distance to the Greenway. If you are into dining and wining the apartment is well served with restaurants and bars a very easy walking distance away. Sala Comacina itself is a quiet town, but this is part of its charm. We would certainly come back again.

The apartment was great! Communication with Eva was very good! And thank you so much for letting me charge my e-scooter. Everything worked out very easily. Thank you!

Wonderful location! Nicola was very responsive and quick to answer any questions. The home is charming and has a stunning view of the lake. The hot tub was the perfect way to end each evening!

Senior ladies group, loved everything about the place. Great location to walk to things. We enjoyed the sitting room, dining room, kitchen to cook in, gardens and the terrace .

Beautiful home and even better view of the lake and surround towns. Really what we wanted to get a relaxing yet fun experience. Would definitely come again and highly suggest for anyone looking for a great place to stay in the area.

We had an amazing time staying in this home. The place is very well equipped and the beds are very comfy. Feel right at home. The hosts provide excellent instructions and recommendations for local restaurants and bars which we enjoyed very much. Highly recommended.

It was indeed a pleasure staying at Marco's chalet, in serene surroundings. Spacious with a great garden, and the house had all it needed

We rented Mattia's apartment because of the location, description/pictures and the reviews and everything was spot-on! Mattia is the most thoughtful and helpful host that we've had and we agree 100% with the previous reviews complimenting him. He is communicative, gracious and thoughtful. The apartment was true to pictures, with incredible views and was spacious to spread out. Very peaceful and quiet in this town. It is in a small town with limited walking amenities but it provides a great base of operations for visiting the Lake Como area (we had a rental car). The apartment had all major amenities and then some, with a few thoughtful additions to make the stay extra special!

Marcus and Simona are perfect AirBnB hosts. The place is gorgeous; even better than the photos, which do not do it justice. The house was immaculate, and the most comfortable bed and linens I’ve experienced in a rental. Marcus went out of his way to accommodate us with recommendations and assistance from months before we arrived and always made himself available for help. I brought my older parents with me, who had some issues with the walk to the house - it’s about 2-3 minutes downhill and through cobblestones and rough gravel to get to the house - but worth every minute once you are there. I recommend you pack as light as possible - we had 3 large suitcases and 2 huge duffel bags plus carryons because we are on a long trip, which made it extra tough to load in and out. I actually left 2 suitcases in the car and took what we needed. Aside from the challenges because of our bags and some limited mobility, their home easily ranks in my Top 3 of all places I’ve been. Will be back!

We had a great time in Porto Ceresio. The accommodation was even better than the photos. I highly recommend it!
