Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Tenero-Contra

We had a fantastic stay with Nicole and Christian. The house is very spacious and easily fit our group. It is designed in a way to feel very private, and you have a nice big balcony in front with a stunning view of the city, the lake, and the mountains across. The footpath to walk to downtown passes right by the house and there is a bus stop nearby, so it’s easily accessible from Locarno. The house was very clean, and we did not hear any traffic from the road. We really enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen, which had everything we needed to make our meals. Nicole and Christian were very responsive, accommodating, and easy to reach. We’d love to stay here again!

Loved the holiday! Lovely house and great location. The views are out of this world! Thank you!

Grazie Marco for an exceptional stay in Orta San Giulio! This was one of the best experiences (from Airbnb or even hotels) we’ve had. Marco was incredibly responsive and communicative, and very kind. He picked us up from Malpensa airport, and even drove us to Milano after our stay. We were travelling with our toddler and Marco very kindly coordinated with the child car seat rental provider to have the seat ready for us. The apartment is in a quiet area that is super close to the piazza. Upon arrival, Marco provided water, local beers, and local biscuits that were delicious. The apartment was incredibly clean, tidy, and nicely decorated. The kitchen was equipped with everything you might need, and the coffee was great! Details like the lovely bath products and slippers, really made our stay stand out, as well as Marco’s hospitality. We would absolutely recommend Marco’s place for your stay in Orta. We would love to come back and stay in Marco’s other property! Grazie mille!

The apartment is spacious, perfectly clean and you have everything you need and from the terrace you have a fantastic view of the lake and the three islands. The hosts are very nice, courteous and helpful. We would definitely come back.

Just gorgeous! The location, the house, we'd love to come back!

Elisa was very kind and a great host. Her place is clean and cozy and the kitchen is indeed FULLY equipped. The Rustico has a privat garden, where I enjoyed sunbathing and listening to the different sounds of nature. It is located a bit outside the village and therefore very quiet, you just couldn't be closer to nature. Still, it is accessible by car and it takes you only 10-15 minutes to go back to the village by feet. From Elisas place you can start different mountain hikes or just go down to the river and relax. All my wishes where fulfilled! I hope to come back one day and spend some more time at Elisas wonderful Rustico.

Scenic views. Well located. The place matched the pictures. Very quiet place. Easy parking. Would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely weekend at the apartment. Everything was as described and in the pictures, in real life even more beautiful. The contact with Marco worked great. We will be happy to come back.

Milena was a great host – very friendly and helpful. The place was extremely clean, the kitchen perfectly equipped, the surroundings beautiful with great hiking opportunities. Ascona and Locarno are within easy reach. The flexibility at check-out was particularly pleasant. Absolutely recommended, we'll be happy to come back!

Very accommodating assistance. Questions were always answered on the same day and we felt very comfortable.

If I could give the home (and Silvia) more than five stars I would. As beautiful as the view is in the pictures it doesn’t compare to being there in person. It is spectacularly beautiful. The rooms were very comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and Silvia was very responsive and helpful. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and look forward to visiting again in the future!

Stefano’s apartment was a perfect place to stay in Ascona. It’s on a pedestrian-only street in the old part of town. Check in was easy. The apartment had everything we needed, kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Grocery store just a few minutes walk. Bus stop very close and buses were easy to use. Recommend a day trip to the Valle Verzasca, and a ferry ride to some of the towns in Italy. Stefano answered all my questions before our trip promptly and graciously. This is a wonderful place. If it’s available, you should book it!

cute apartment in the center of the old village, in the middle of all the boutiques and a 2 minute walk to the water front with restaurants

Luca is really kind, he welcomed us and our little dog in a very special way. He gave us a hand with our luggage and gave us ideas for visiting. I highly recommend it!!

Very friendly and helpful host. Check-in/check-out was really fast and easy. Apartment was very spacious and clean, had everything we needed. Everything was close by so location is perfect, quiet and in a dead end street. 10 out of 10 points.

Wonderful and unique Place directly on the lake! Very quite and Perfect Place to relax and enjoy the area and landscape! Davide and his mother Marina are super friendly and we felt very welcome and we Hope to come again soon!

This was the perfect place for 2 couples. We wanted peaceful, relaxing and views- this house was perfect. It was too cold to use the pool but we enjoyed the view from the pool. The hottub was clean and felt good on the chilly mornings. Beds were comfy and had all the amenities. The neighborhood kitty cat was so sweet and visited us every evening. You do need a car to get around which we had. Cant wait to go back!!

We had a lovely stay at Andrea’s property! His home was perfectly set up with all of the amenities you could need & was located in a lovely little Italian town providing a ‘local’ experience. You’ll definitely need a car to get to the beautiful surrounding places! Andrea and his team were so kind and great to communicate with. We would recommend this stay to any big groups looking at a trip to Lake Como. Thank you Andrea.

Beautiful surroundings, post bus right at your doorstep. (This is how you can leave the car.) Large house, fully equipped with everything you need! Scorpions can be expected:-) very nice, large outdoor area. Mike was super friendly, will get back to you right away. Absolutely uncomplicated handover. We have enjoyed our holidays!

We absolutely loved our stay in this gorgeous apartment, we really enjoyed the private terrace and outdoor seating areas. The location is ideal for walking into the centre of the village or for taking ferries around the lake, and with a car was ideal for driving up into the hills. We particularly appreciated the more traditional decor which added to the character of the house and made our stay feel authentic. Thank you so much Roxana and family, we hope to visit again.

The house had excellent views, well furnished, good amenities( in kitchendidn't make use of the kitchen) and easy commute from Como and Bellagio. highly recommend the place

This place is a dream come true. The view of the lake and the little islands from two floors of the house and the terrace is absolutely spectacular. We did not want to leave to explore the area - it seemed sufficient to just sit and watch the lake for hours. The house is also furnished with a lot of taste and the surroundings are very quiet - which added to the overall well-being and relaxation. The only thing that might top the place is Simon, the host. Very friendly, easy going and always ready to help. We were welcomed by a set table with bread, cheese and a bottle of wine. We definitely want to come again!

Loved our stay in Menaggio! The house was great and we felt right at home. It was clean, tidy, and the owner was very quick to respond to messages and sent the house manager within 20 minutes to help with something. After seeing the different towns in Lake Como, Menaggio was 100% the best to stay in. The town is so cute and felt a bit more spacious with less tourists compared to the others. A good amount of delicious restaurant options and a quick walk to the ferry. The house was exactly what we needed and the pictures do a good job showing what it is like. It is up on a hill with a convenient walking path to the town. Down to town was an easy 5 minutes, getting back to the house was a true uphill but only took 8 minutes and we really enjoyed the walk back after dinner. The views of the lake/town from the house and on the walk are breathtaking. We also had a car that we parked near the house easily with their parking pass.

What a beautiful setting for our family reunion on Lake Cuomo! Host and his Dad met us at check in to help with luggage. The home is simply beautiful, fully furnished and outfitted with embroidered linens and towels. We appreciated so very much the starter groceries and fresh produce. We settled in and didn’t need to shop for a few days. We hiked the trails above Brienno, chartered a private sailboat, ate locally, took the ferry to Bellagio, explored Menaggio, Cernobbio and of course Como. And sat on the beautiful terrace in Brienno and admired the view for hours. This home is a wonderful place, excellent value for the price. Highly reccomended.
