The property was nice and cozy, we were 8 people and everyone loved it, the swimming pool was children’s favorite thing, for adults the panoramic views. Thanks!

Remote. Quiet. Very helpful and friendly staff.

I would have liked the property to be a little closer to Pienza or another town so we could easily have walked to restaurants.

Beautiful rural location. Enjoyed the hike of the property. Room was stocked with wonderful food and drink items. High quality toiletries. Comfortable bed and bedding. Short drive to Pienza and located well for other day trips. Enjoyed the activities offered.

Amazing views, beautiful lawn, olive trees everywhere, close proximity to the adorable car-free village, very kind staff, playful dog, well- appointed housing, next to the Varenna landmark castle, feels like VIP vacation experience.

We loved everything! This has nothing to do with the Villa, but I recommend a mosquito repellent as there are a lot of mosquitos in the area generally.

The view is absolutely incredible. It is one of the loveliest Villas we have ever stayed at. Our house was also very comfortable, equipped with everything we needed. The staff was very helpful and easily reachable by phone.

Just wish if there was some official service we can order to pick & drop from the apartment ( the staff was very helpful when we need the gulf car ) but i wish it was an official service because u will need it alot if u have someone older with u or someone can’t walk on winding road

THE VIEW PRIVACY sharing pool The whole space is so peaceful & calm

Not easy to order a taxi (perhaps it is easier to find one in the train station). The property is located on the top of the mountain. We had to climb the steep pebble roads most of time when we went to the town center. It would be challenging for older people.

Beautiful view!

Nothing - amazing!

Our stay in Varenna was nothing short of spectacular, thanks to this incredible place. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had found a true gem. The pictures really don’t do the place justice - it’s unbelievably stunning. The place is located up a windy road but there is a more direct footpath from the stay down to Varenna. It takes around 15/20 minutes to get down and around 25/30 to get back up. The path is steep but we often walked down and got a taxi back up later in the day / evening - only walking back up maybe 2/3 times. The walk down and up is do-able but if you had any difficulty walking it may be advisable to hire a car as I know many people had done. However, the views from the hotel are absolutely breathtaking, rivalling those of many villa gardens in the area. Each morning, we were greeted with stunning panoramas that made our stay truly magical. We enjoyed sitting having a morning coffee or evening drink listening to music overlooking the mountain and flowers - truly breathtaking, very romantic and without question the most beautiful place I’ve stayed. The staff were amazing and exceptionally friendly, always going above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction. They provided us with some amenities to get us by as we did arrive a little late. The coffee was amazing! Varenna itself is so beautiful, it’s everything you want from Lake Como, the views, the food, the romantic walks, Gelato - it’s very easy to get to neighbouring towns - highly highly recommend this place.

Only complaint would be the beds are very stiff. Not the coziest sleep ever.

LOVED this gorgeous property on the hill! It’s a peaceful sanctuary away from the crowded streets in Varenna below. Stunning!! Only noise was really the chickens. The staff was so kind and Stefano was so helpful, going above & beyond for us! Would 100% stay here again.

I would suggest some lighting to be provided in the beautiful garden so people can enjoy it during night and also to make some night activities such as to set a fire in designated place in the garden

Location & friendly staff

The property is about a 10 minute drive from Varenna. There is a steep path where you can walk into town. Taxis are few and must be reserved.

The property is stunningly beautiful and peaceful. Our cottage was lovely and the staff were kind, friend,y and helpful. It is a wonderful respite from the crowds of the villages.

Host was fantastic, hosts drove us into town when we were leaving as there was no cabs on sunday( for a fee) They had cereal, jams, bread for breakfast.

Location was not easy to get to,not many cabs in town or always busy.

Small but insignificant, no daily housekeeping.

Absolutely stunning property. The property is even nicer than the photos which says a lot because the photos are stunning! I’m confident its the best lake views in all of lake Como. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The pools are amazing. Theres no where else I would stay in Lake Como.

Stayed in June 2023

For a couple of days there was a group of noisy residents playing loud music around the swimming pool.

The views across lake Como from the elevated position were unforgettable and made for the perfect romantic setting. The house was beautifully presented, spacious, clean and well equipped. The pools were clean and a welcome way to cool off on the hotter days. Nearby Varenna is a delightful town with several good places to eat and drink, bustling with people making for a great ambience. The steep walk from Varenna to the property at Vezio was a challenge but it helped preserve the tranquility by keeping the crowds away. The service team led by Stefano and Giovanna were delightful and very helpful.

Due to the remote location and limited restaurant (breakfast only) the hotel should fill the fridge with more food items, which they could charge for. Some soft drinks, chips, chocolate etc. In addition the bathroom kit were rather poor. Tiny bar soap and tiny shampoo. We were not able to drive down to Varenna to buy bathroom items due to opening hours.

Very nice property with breathtaking views from the lawns. The "chalets" were nicely appointed and provide sufficient privacy. The pool is large and pleasant for a few hours of relaxation. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Wonderful view and great swimming on site. Lovely friendly staff and nice restaurant very close

Nothing about the property itself but if you haven’t got a car which we didn’t, the walk back from Varenna is exceptionally steep and cobbled, the walk down is about 15 minutes but you have to be careful as the cobbles can be a bit slippery & not many hand rails. We often used a taxi for approximately €15-20.

The setting is beautiful, located a 5 minute walk to the castle. The facilities were really good, a large swimming pool, tennis/football court, table tennis and seating areas in the gardens overlooking the stunning views in a quiet setting. The apartment was a really good size with everything we needed & the bread/milk/cornflakes/jams was a lovely touch and needed as there are no shops nearby. The staff were really lovely & helpful too.

Absolutely nothing. Perfect start to finish!

Good breakfast and excellent service. Would be nice to dine outdoors and/or with the view.
