- About The Experience
-
Tucked away in the tranquil mountainside, overlooking the lake, this modern townhouse near Como is a lovely destination for a family or two couples. The well-furnished terrace is designed to make the most of outdoor living, from alfresco meals and sunset toasts to lounging in chairs on the grass.
- Location Description
-
The townhouse is located in the small, fashionable mountainside village of Moltrasio, which has lush gardens, a small private beach (with entrance fee), as well as shops, a bank, a post office and a church. The village center is 270 meters from the villa and may be reached via 3-minute walk along a sidewalk or a road shared with cars. A 5-minute walk will bring you to the public boats, which make stops up and down the lakeside villages. You are also only 4 kilometers away from the resort town of Cernobbio, home of Hotel Villa d’Este in Cernobbio, a renowned Renaissance residence that was converted into a luxury hotel in the 1800s. One of the best views of the lake is Piazza Cavour, on the banks of the lake in the 2000-year-old town of Como. There is an abundance of cafes, pubs, restaurants and nightlife, shops, and several other attractions to suit any appetite. Como offers frequent ferry service to the central lake areas as well as connections to Milan. A car is necessary.

Customer Reviews
Overall:
Overall, it was a good experience.
Enjoyed Most:
Nice views. Nice living room and terrace.
Enjoyed Least:
Many, many steps to get to the apartment. Parking area is quite a walk and up many steps, so bringing in luggage is a challenge. Lighting is poor.
Surrounding Area:
Very close to the boats that take you to all the towns on the lake. Very convenient. Nice restaurant nearby.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Cernobbio was the next town but not in walking distance.
Tips or Restaurants:
Need to bring supplies for the house with you. Definitely have dinner at La Baia, which is a short walk. Apt on 3 levels which I was unaware of. Stairs had no railing and would be dangerous for small children.
Directions:
We used a GPS. Very tricky hairpin turn to get to property. From parking lot, it was unclear which steps to take. The first set of stairs led all the way up and was not the correct one.
Check In Out:
The key was in a lock box; there was nobody waiting for us when we arrived.

Enjoyed Most:
The view of Lake Como. The Maltrasio location was perfect. Easy access to ferry service. Restaurants not far away.
Enjoyed Least:
The kitchen was not equipped with essentials - there was no dish or diswasher soap, no wash rags, no electrical adapters for appliances,no information about local restaurants or grocery stores, no checkcheck out instructions.
Surrounding Area:
Lake Como is quite beautiful! We would go back again. We particularly liked the ferry ride to the towns around the lake. Also, we took a day and drove to Switzerland - only a 30 minute drive.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Maltrasio is a 10 minute walk from the villa
Tips or Restaurants:
The town of Como is the place to eat. Great variety in a lovely setting. We also took the tram up to the top of the hill overlooking Como and had lunch - quite lovely!
Directions:
We had GPS in the car we rented. Thanks goodness we had this. Otherwise, the directions provided would not have been sufficient.

Overall:
We had a great time and the little commune of Moltrasio was a real slice of Italian life.
Enjoyed Most:
Great views, lots of room, nice kitchen. We did quite a few meals in with local produce and meats.
Enjoyed Least:
No instructions on what to do with garbage and it started piling up after a few days.
Surrounding Area:
Lake Como is amazing, ferries to every little town did a day trip to Bellagio, another to the town of Como.
Nearby Events or Locales:
Moltrasio center was a five minute walk.
Tips or Restaurants:
Great little spot in Cernobbio, next town over, Wine Bar, two guys that run it spoke English very well, and cooked some great food.
Directions:
We did use GPS but unfortunately the property is only accessible by walking so GPS in the car was of limited use. I'd set the coordinates to the parking area and then provide instructions to walk from there.
Check In Out:
Everything, except the garbage, worked great. Thanks!
