Awe inspiring location
What a beautiful location! Sara, our host was so helpful and the apartment was amazing. The pictures on vrbo are good, but really do not do the actual view or apartment real justice …. Seeing is believing Transport links to town are good For sure you will be sitting on the balcony in awe ! Well done Sara! Thanks

We just had a quick stay in Como but this apartment was perfect for our 3. Best view of the lake and so comfortable! The owner Sara was so accommodating and available! Wish we could’ve stayed longer. Loved our time there. Thank you Sara!

Anniversary trip
The view from the apartment was simply spectacular, better than the photos. The drive into the property was as described, NARROW, so a small car is helpful. But the apartment and the view made that all worth it. Thank you, Sara!

Beautiful Lake View
We could not beat the balcony view from Sara’s home! We did not have a car but once we figured out the bus routes, it was very easy to get to and from. We sat outside every night to enjoy the view and all slept very well in the rooms. Sara was easy to communicate and her place was well stocked with all the basics. Would definitely recommend to others and would stay again!
