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!

We decided in our 5 week holiday to 10 different towns and cities this was our favorite. W hope this house is available next time.

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!

Great stay in comfortable accommodation so convenient.

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.

We had a wonderful stay. Michele and his family were so friendly and helpful. We took our dog, and Michele sister as a vet was able to provide the services needed for our return trip. Michele also offered a taxi service to help us get our car from the garage and my mum to the train station. We can’t thank him enough for making our stay go well. We were able to walk down to the lake edge, the local restaurant the Blue Shell was amazing and we loved going to the little local shop also in walking distance for supplies.

Very nice place to relax. Very nice view from the balcony and from the bed. It has everything you'll need. Small details make the cottage special. Highly recommended! Marco is very accommodating and was available for any questions at any time. Glad to come back!

A perfect house and garden for those seeking peace in a beautiful environment. Very well equipped, this family home is however quite rustic and particularly suitable for summer. Spacious garden, completely private with stunning views of the mountains and the hamlet of Frasco. Swimming spots away from busy places within walking distance + start of pretty easy hikes (Sonogno 30 min along the river and in the forest).

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!

The apartment is located in the middle of the old town. For a larger group, the apartment is great because there are two bathrooms and a large living room. The bus stop, Coop and parking garage are just a few minutes' walk away. There is also a bakery nearby. The kitchen is less spacious but well equipped with oven and dishwasher.

Great place to stay. More than enough to do in the area and a great host. I would come back any time.

Stefano was a very friendly, helpful and courteous host. The apartment is large and beautiful, super centrally located. The parking was a bit cumbersome but still practical. We were able to get into the apartment earlier and also stay longer at check-out, which was great. He provided all the children's utensils. We'd love to come back

Large, very functional and perfectly clean accommodation. Many hikes in the immediate vicinity, lakes can be reached in 10 min by car. Decoration that gives a soul to the home. We had a great stay at Marco's.

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.

We enjoyed our stay at this modern and well equipped house. It offers beautiful lake views and even in Winter we could sit outside and enjoy the stunning sunsets. The place had everything we needed and communication with the host and co-host was very easy. Definitely recommended!

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!

Sensational location, very large property, great pool. We thoroughly enjoyed it at Andrea's and are completely satisfied!

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.

⭐ 5 Stars – Breathtaking Lake Como Escape! ⭐ Just wow! The views of Lake Como from Villa Silver are unforgettable and truly breathtaking. This villa felt like a private mansion, with a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern luxury. The space is beautifully designed, with spacious and bright rooms, elegant decor, and stunning panoramic views from every angle. The outdoor area is a dream—a gorgeous flat garden, a luxurious swimming pool, and plenty of space to relax and dine al fresco. The living areas are grand, with large windows letting in natural light and offering incredible lake views. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to enjoy meals at home. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, with the master suite opening onto a private terrace overlooking the lake—waking up to that view was unreal! The staff was also helpful and accommodating, ensuring a smooth check-in.

We had a wonderful stay at Simon’s place! The property was easy to find, with plenty of parking nearby. The house itself was cosy, comfortable, and offered absolutely stunning views. There’s so much to do in the area—we were never short of activities. Simon was incredibly friendly and gave us some great local recommendations, which we really enjoyed exploring. We’re already looking forward to coming back and will definitely be recommending this lovely place to our friends and family. Thank you, Simon, for a fantastic stay!

Check-in was smooth with clear instructions. The Airbnb is one of the best stocked we've stayed in, and the furniture is thoughtfully chosen and beautiful. The location isn’t ideal for those with mobility issues (fortunately not our case), but it’s just a 10-minute walk to great ice cream. Menaggio is a great spot for exploring Varenna and Bellagio.
