  View with a personal touch! We stayed in the Villeta Tranquillita #11. The location is great and we had a lovely view. We left the French doors open at night and were lulled to sleep by the lapping of the water against the shore. The kitchen was very functional and the bed and linens were as well. There were little things here and there that may not have been ideal however they are easily overlooked because of the kind, sincere, amazing personal touch of the owners. Poor Robin incurred a major injury horseback riding so we did not have the pleasure of meeting her but we met her other half, Eric. From the moment we showed interest both Robin and Eric responded quickly to our emails answering all of our questions and upon arrival Eric helped with arranging boat service, giving us a ride, and just simply being there when we needed something. He was a terrific host! We would come back again in a heart beat and recommend it if you are looking for a relaxing, small town, authentic feeling. Grazie Mille por Une vacanza fantastica!! · By The Steele's from San Jose,CA on 11/1/2012 for a stay in 10/1/2012

  If you are looking for excellent family accommodations and facilities on Lake Como where you can swim, rent a boat on the jetty or just relax on the lido and be close to all the sites, yet still have your privacy, then this little resort is the perfect place to stay. We felt so fortunate to have had the Lake Como Beach Resort recommended to us by our German friends, who stayed there in June. They described it brilliantly. In fact, we thought it may have been too good to be true and were pleasantly surprised on our arrival. It beat all of our expectations. It was tops in quality and so very well maintained.Our two children never wanted to leave and cried on departure. Staying in such a lovely accommodation made our family holiday that much more special. Our family truly enjoyed the property with it's many amenities, the grill outdoors and the magnificent views of Lake Como. Our hosts were a delight and could not have been more helpful and accommodating. We as a family would like to make it our yearly holiday. I am planning a romantic trip back for my husband and I for our anniversary. Eric, you are a star ! The Lambert Family Essex, England

  WEDDING - OCT 2011 Guest Review from raw@dolegal.co.uk - Oct 4, 2011 "Fantastic Break - Wish I was still there! " A fantastic place to stay. Very clean and well equipped with amazing views and just a quick jump to the Lake for some swimming. Eric and Robin could not have been more welcoming or accomodating and we will definately be back for some more fun in Como

  Amazing!!! Actually, our stay at lake Como Beach Resort was beyond amazing..it couldn't have been better! It began with our initial arrangements with the owners, Robin and Eric, who were so easy to work with and accommodating. We were sure we were going to have a great vacation. Upon arrival, Eric was there to meet us, and he and Robin were fantastic throughout our stay, helping us with so many little trings that had nothing to do with the villa, including our car issues, our GPS and phone problems, etc. They just couldn't do enough. Both are lovely people, as is their daughter, and we hope they are now friends for life! Second - the location: unbelievable - we felt like we were in a postcard the entire time. The villetta sits right at water's edge, from where you have magnificent views of the lake , mountains, and surrounding villages. We felt so at peace while we were there. Third - the viletta itself - spacious, comfortable, immaculate, with unbelievable views! We hated to leave an know we will return soon! · By Barb from Voorhees, NJ on 10/2/2011 for a stay in 9/1/2011 My Detailed Ratings Value: 5 of 5 Check-in: 5 of 5 Location: 5 of 5 Cleanliness: 5 of 5 Comfort: 5 of 5 Service: 5 of 5 What I liked best about this accommodation The location, the owners, the villa itself What I liked least about this accommodation the winding steep driveway I selected this accommodation because of Beach/Sun, My personal tips If you're looking for tranquillity and serenity.... Then spend at least a week onat Lake Como Beach Resort and Villas! You need at least a week to truly enjoy it!

  Stunning Location, Gorgeous Villetta and Excellent Service! Villetta Tranquillita is situated on the corner near the BBQ area which was perfect for us as we could enjoy our dinner outside and be close to our baby sleeping. The views from the villetta are amazing, I particularly loved having a leisurely breakfast on the balcony. Simply stunning. We arrived in a terrific thunderstorm which made for an interesting drive from Milan, especially the drive down to the villetta, but once you've done it, it's fine the second time! Eric is a fantastic host, making sure we had everything we needed for the baby and giving good recommendations of where to eat locally. All in all, we had a great holiday and would love to come back sometime! Your Response - Sep 22, 2011 Thank you for your lovely review. It was such a pleasure having you all here with us at the Lake Como Beach Resort and look forward to you coming again. Ciao from Lake

  We could not have chosen a more ideal spot to spend our Lake Como Holiday. The personal and caring serive of the owners Eric and Robin with their lovely daughter Jiselle went way beyond the call of duty. We have never experienced such personal service from any holiday rental. Eric was there every day with information and help from grocery shopping to car hire, to driving us to the cooking class. It was quite amazing really. Service like that is not available at a five star hotel ! The stay was exceptional and we would return in a heartbeat. In fact we already have plans to retun next year for our anniversary. The views are stunning and majestic from the waterfront. You can't get any closer to the waters edge without jumping right in. Loved having the waterfront right at our doorstep, literally. It is nice to have a car but you certainly don't need one. We used the public transport to get everywhere. The Villettas had everything we needed and were fully equipped. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable. This place stands out above all others for many reasons, Location, Waterfront , Accommodations - The most important thing of all was the Excellent Level of Personal Service and Customer Care given to each and every Guest that stayed with you. That is what sets you apart from all the rest. No-one could do this better. It was truly beyond 5 star!! Thank you for that.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

  Rated: 5 of 5 Outstanding accommodations and Stunning Location ! The Lake Como Beach Resort was an outstanding resort with everything and more than we had hoped for in an accommodation. Truly 5 stars. The villettas were well equipped with all mod cons as well as very tastefully decorated and exceptionally well maintained. The service is impeccable, spotless and beautifully kept. Gorgeous balcony views as well as stunning gardens that overlook the lake from everywhere including our bedroom and living room. The location on the lake is stunning absolutely to die for ! Location, Location, This is it ! Eric and Robin were wonderful hosts that made us feel like family, very welcoming and warm people who went out of their way to ensure their guests were comfortable and had everything they needed. The Holiday rental is run more like a 5 star hotel than a holiday rental and we did not expect to receive the service we were given. Outstanding accommodations in every way. Well done, you have an ecxceptional resort here. The resort is very private and quaint and hidden away from all the tourist traps which was what we were looking for. Close to everything but tucked quietly away for peace and tranquility. What a find ! A real Gem ! Perfect for everyone. · By Nature Preservation from USA on 8/28/2011 for a stay in 8/1/2011 My Detailed Ratings Value: 5 of 5 Check-in: 5 of 5 Location: 5 of 5 Cleanliness: 5 of 5 Comfort: 5 of 5 Service: 5 of 5

  Outstanding Resort with Spectacular Views My husband and I had a spectacular holiday at the Lcbr this summer and cannot say enough. Eric and Robin run a top notch small resort that caters to guests from around the world. It was like a little United Nations. Guests with varied backgrounds. Wonderful warm and welcoming feeling. One feels like family and it can't get better than that. Everyone is made to feel unique and special. Eric qand Robin have something very special here that they offer all their customers. A unique kind of service that is 5 star. The most expensive hotels in the world do not offer this kind of caring, professional unique service, where one is treated like a king and queen and made to feel so very special. Unlike any other place we have ever visited. Thank you for an impressive, outstanding vacation. We are so happy to have foundyou. We have been looking for a place like yours for years and have finally found our Shangrila on Lake Como ! Totally enchanting ! That little girl of your's is something very special too!

  Wonderfully peaceful and relaxing week in the best spot on the lake. The initial views from the clifftop lift are breathtaking (to say nothing of the very exciting drive in but you have to experience that to understand it!) The accommodation exceeded my expectations and if anything, the website pictures do not do it justice. Eric and family are fantastic hosts and made the holiday so memorable. The local store was perfect for everything we needed and I would highly recommend the fresh produce (especially the meat counter!) The other guests were a wonderful mix of honeymooners, families with preschoolers, families with teenagers - there really is something here for everyone. The complex has an intimate feel and yet plenty of privacy and there is everything you need for a peacfeul day by the lake if you don't want to stray too far from your sun lounger. A daily swim from the jetty directly into the lake was a real highlight. All in all, the Villetas are a wonderful find and I hope to make many return visits!

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children.

  Owner response: Thank you for such a lovely review, it was most humbling. We take personal pride in that all our guests are very happy, comfortable and feel right at home in our small private resort. We appreciate all of the wonderful guests that have stayed with us and enjoyed them tremendously as they have become our friends. We look forward to your return.

  Fantastic base for chilling out and enjoying lake Como We spent a week exploring Lake Como and were so pleased we'd chosen Villa Tranquillita as our base. The location is perfect - one of the few complexes we saw with its own jetty, 'beach' and gardens right on the waterfront. Our apartment was clean, spacious and well appointed with modern fittings, a well equipped kitchenette and a comfortable bed. There is a ferry landing stage less than 5 minutes walk from the apartment where you can catch one of the ferries that make scheduled trips up and down the lake and there is a great grocery shop on the road above which has a butcher's counter and a decent selection of wine, cheese and all the other necessities. A special mention for the proprietor, Eric, who went out of his way to make us feel welcome. He also helped me out of a little jam I'd gotten into with my rental car in a nearby town and literally saved the day. A true gentleman and he and his wife Robin deserve every success with their venture. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Villa Tranquillita and look forward to visiting again soon. · By Mike from Leicester on 8/20/2011 for a stay in 8/1/2011 My Detailed Ratings Value: 5 of 5 Check-in: 5 of 5 Location: 5 of 5 Cleanliness: 5 of 5 Comfort: 5 of 5 Service: 5 of 5
