Gorgeous
Our group of 5 (3 adults, 2 toddlers) had an amazing stay in October at Villa Della Torre. The manager was super helpful with recommendations, bookings, groceries, and more. The house was gorgeous and clean. And the view.... you cannot beat it!

Lovely stay
It was wonderful in the villa. We immediately felt very comfortable and almost had a feeling at home. Everything was furnished with great attention to detail and to a high standard, we would come back at any time. Thank you for the lovely stay!

Breath-taking
We went on a family holiday to lake Como and booked this beautiful house. We were with 6 adults and 2 little children and it had plenty of space for all of us. The Villa is beautiful, the views are breath-taking and everything is very clean and nicely decorated. It had everything you possibly need. the surroundings are beautiful too. Loved the city town Menaggio which is super close by. We also went on the ferry to Bellagio. Would highly recommend staying there and would love to return sometime in the future!

Stunning
We were a group of 6 adults and 4 children staying there for one week. The stay was very nice and we are sure to come back. The house and bathrooms are very clean and the rooms are spacious. The decoration is pretty but also not over-decorated. There is a lot of attention given to the details - you find everything you could possibly need. The view from the pool is just stunning.
The tips from the manager were especially helpful and there are things to do for all ages: Visiting old towns, going hiking, going on a boat, swimming or SUP paddling in the lake. There is a small store in town that has everything you need and large stores in short driving distance.
See you next year! -
Spectacular
Thank you for the great hospitality at Villa Della Torre. We were a group of 6 adults and 6 children, but even with 12 people you don't feel that this great villa is overcrowded. The villa is perfectly equipped with everything you need. All installed equipment is up to date. The landscape is spectacular, just amazing, no noise, just quiet to enjoy the scenery. We had a wonderful relaxing stay there. Hope once to come back.
