The office staff was very accommodating and helpful with every question that we had concerning the property, places to visit and where to park our car, and a restaurant suggestion that was wonderful – Grolla – perfect for our family with small children. We took the Ferry to Bellagio and on another day we went to Varena where we especially enjoyed the Villa Monastero and Gardens.
We would highly recommend staying at Villa Lisnada as a perfect place to visit.

We really enjoyed our stay at Bellavista Grande, and we received excellent service from your company throughout.
Danilo was very helpful, and we highly recommend the driver he sent to pick up my sister and then us, for our transfers. I unfortunately cannot recall his name I'm sorry. However, he was incredibly helpful and even walked my sister into the train terminal to ensure she found her platform etc. We were very appreciative of this. He also provided a lot of interesting information about the region during the drive.
Travelling with a toddler is challenging and the stairs up to the street definitely tested us, but the view from the balcony was worth the effort. The property was clean and in good condition.
Menaggio was a perfect choice for us to stay in as we found towns like Bellagio to be very touristy and busy. Our proximity to the ferry terminal was very convenient and we travelled around the towns via ferry.
The area is simply breathtaking, even more beautiful than the pictures suggest.
The company were very helpful in arranging the transfers and boat hire, plus allowing us to use the printing facilities at the office as well. Everyone we came across was very helpful.
Thank you for a wonderful stay, we hope to return to the region one day in the future.

I just wanted to send you a quick email to say thank you for all your help during our stay last week. We all had a fantastic time and are sad to be home.
The apartment was perfect for us and is really well looked after, we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We all enjoyed staying there and it was an ideal place for my 3 year old son as it is safe and secure. The apartment is in an ideal location as it only took 10-15 minutes to walk into the centre of Menaggio and the supermarket by the ferry is very handy!
You and your team were brilliant with helping us and answering all our questions and queries and you responded so quickly to each email, we really felt like you looked after us.
This is the second time myself and my husband have visited Menaggio and we absolutely love it there, so much so we are talking about coming back for a third time and we still feel we haven't explored the lake completely as there is still so much to see!
Many thanks again and we shall definitely use your company in the future and will most definitely recommend you to anyone who wants to holiday in Italy!

We stayed for a week in June 2014 and we will be coming back!
This place was perfect for our family (ranging in ages from 3 - 60) and is an absolutely delightful apartment. The walk into Menaggio only look 10-15 mins and the supermarket by the ferry was very handy. The apartment is modern, clean and has the most amazing view over the lake and Varenna and Bellagio.
We absolutely loved staying here and my 3yr old son loved the pool!
The team at lakecomohomes.com are efficient and very helpful and they always replied to my emails almost instantly. They really looked after us. We shall be recommending them to all our friends and we are already talking about coming back as there is still so much to see and do around the lake, plus the food everywhere we ate was amazing!
Thank you for a very enjoyable stay.

Bellisimo Italia!
A wonderful place to experience the beautiful town of Menaggio! The apartment is well appointed and we had plenty of space for all 8 of us to hang out!
The balcony / terrace was our favourite spot as the views were straight from a movie set, Lake Como is the most beautiful place we have ever seen and look forward to returning. The pool is spotless with a lovely setting and we also made good use of the “lido” in Menaggio itself.
We look forward to returning soon.

Our group of 7 (5 adults, a 13-year-old and a 3-year-old) enjoyed our 7-night stay at Bellavista Grande very much.
There is a wide choice of restaurants in Menaggio. A ferry trip across the lake to Varenna is a lovely day out. Varenna is a delightful, character-filled town.
We thoroughly enjoyed hiring speed boats for a couple of hours exploring the lake.
We enjoyed our stay very much and all fell in love with Lake Como, and the mid-lake towns in particular.

Totally underestimated; if you are looking for a break then look no further, Italy is a fantastic country with great culture, attitude, food, wine and people but our stay at Bellavista Grande complimented our holiday in every way. It’s an easy commute from the airport and provides a real wow factor on arrival in Menaggio.
The villa provides everything you can need and is equipped to a very standard with particular attention to cleanliness, detail and requires no maintenance at all which is unusual!
The layout works for all ages as we took our two children with grandparents and we all thoroughly enjoyed it our stay.
Our holiday was outstanding and delivered more than our expectations and has given some remarkable memories which we can draw on in the future and cherish dearly.
Perfect Perfect in every way!

We stayed in this beautiful villa quite recently and found it to be full of charm and character. The stunning views from the terrace over the lake to Bellagio and also over the town are too amazing to describe. The villa has everything you could possibly need for a ‘home from home’ holiday including Wi-Fi and even an X-box!. It has been really well put together and gave us everything that we could have possibly needed. Add in the communal pool for summer use and you have a perfect place to spend a holiday. Menaggio is close enough to walk to and is both pretty and full of excellent eating places. There is no doubt that we will return to this special place.

Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely apartment. We’ve really enjoyed our time here. Your apartment is very well equipped and we really appreciated the added extras and thoughtful home comforts provided-dvds, xbox games, recipe books etc. The views were breath-taking and we had wonderful weather except for the odd rain shower. Great location with easy access to Menaggio centre. We made good use of the delicious bakery, butchery and deli shops. We found the shops at the bottom of the hill opposite the petrol station to be competitively priced and well stocked, and could definitely recommend it. We really enjoyed looking around craft and art market that comes on Fridays, and had many fun nights at the local bars and restaurants.
Hopefully we will be back again

Very well equipped apartment with wonderful views. Weather not too bad except on our last day when it rained most of the day. Enjoyed our many trips on the lake and visited Villa Carlotta, Villa Balbianello at Lenno & Villa Meltz in Bellagio. Also went to St. Moritz and Switzerland & Lake Lugano. Stopped off at Gandria which was quiet and peaceful.

Sebastian, Lia and I had a wonderful stay in your apartment. You really seem to have thought through all the details of what makes for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is equipped with all we needed; beds were comfortable, water pressure good and the view from the terrace the finest picture. Technology also made for fun most nights and soothing background of music.
We hope to return one day
Thank You & Best Regards
