    Access to town by foot.

    Absolutely gorgeous view from the room. They overlook the islands off in the middle of the lake. The rim road at the bottom is not for the faint of heart. No shoulder and LOTS of fast driving cars. A bit of a walk (15 minutes of stress) to the main part of town. We taxied back.

    it was a bit too loud, since the rooms are separated only by a door, so you can hear the other visitors... the bed mattress was uncomfortable (v soft, sinking in feeling) the place is high up on a hill, so no amenities close by, you have to drive down by car for 5-10 min

    view was really beautiful, since you can see the lake and all the islands, the place has a beautiful garden. The apartment was very spacious.

    We would definitely return to Villa Maria if back in Stresa.

    Really the only downside to Villa Maria is that it is a bit out of town and up a fairly steep hill. We walked to the boat dock to go to Isola Bella, but some people might not be comfortable with that.

    Our apartment at Villa Maria was beautiful. Unfortunately, we only had one night, but we could easily have stayed for a week given the size and comfort of the apartment. The apartment is above the lake, and the view was amazing.

    I loved everything.

    The view was absolutely spectacular. It's actually why I booked Villa Maria, but the room was excellent too. Clean, comfortable, daily visits from the cleaner, who supplied an ironing board and iron when asked. Breakfast snacks and coffee topped up daily too. The owner also came to chat, and was very friendly.

    Tricky to find, up a steep narrow road the location of which is not obvious. A bit of a way out of Stresa so really a car ride to a restaurant.

    High quality spacious accommodation up above Maggiore. Great views. Short car ride to ferry from Carciano taking you to all destinations on the Lake. Would return.

    Too far to walk to town. Fridge was very small and no kitchen to speak of. Also would have appreciated water glasses, not just wine glasses. Could hear people next door.

    Just the most gorgeous view! Great shower and bed. Very roomy.

    The place is a bit discountected from town and requires a long drive/walk up. And the entrance is not very clear (at the bottom of the road)

    We didn't have a car so the walk up the hill was difficult, but don't let this stop you, it is so worth it once you get there. Breakfast was prepackaged croissant and pre-toasted bread, but Stresa has some amazing patisseries and restaurants.

    Just on the fringe of Stresa a beautiful property on top of the hill, that has an amazing view of Lake Maggiore and the 3 islands. The room and bathroom was very spacious. Includes a couch and inside dining table and table and chairs to sit outside. Would highly recommend staying here.

    I’m a coffee person and I don’t like the machine. My husband couldn’t sleep well because of the mattress but I liked it so not sure it was his side or what.
