About this property

Apartment with breathtaking view over the lake, no car needed

The flagship of Casa dell’Arco is the breathtaking view over the Lake Como. Casa dell’Arco is located in the heart of Varenna, a true urban example of the old Italian villages. Except the main street crossing the village, all others are pedestrian stairs ways (contrada) that bring you down to the lake, ideal for children. The apartment is on top of the building, on two floors and outside the living room are two balconies. The interiors are stylish and modern and the apartment has been completely restored in early 2010. The lake is 20 meters far and in 5’ of pleasant walk along the lake you reach the ferry dock. The train station is only 10' far. Close to the apartment are : pharmacy, grocery, butcher, bank, restaurants and bars. Casa dell’Arco is the ideal location to live the unique atmosphere of Varenna that will make your holiday unforgettable.

Lovely apartment

Lovely apartment. Very disappointed about all the stairs but once in the apartment it was breathtaking. Everything we needed for our stay. Perfect location for the square & hotel my son was getting married at.

Fabulous apartment

Modern, light spacious apartment with views to die for. Owner communicated well and promptly fixed our lights. Also let us have a late check out. Perfect location near main square and a few steps from the lake. Definitely going back!

Great location

We stayed for 2 nights for a local wedding. The location was perfect and views from the terrace beautiful. We had great communication with Lucinda before the stay and would really recommend.

spectacular views from an immaculate apartment

We were delighted with the apartment, immaculate & good amenities. We dealt with the daughter who had limited english & wasn't particularly friendly or helpful. Great memories of champagne on the deck while watching divine sunsets over the lake. Handy to fabulous cafes & restaurants, the best dinners were had at the charming 'ristorante borgovino' on the closest corner part way down the steps. great coffee & free fast wifi in the town piazza @ '28m2'. No air conditioning made for a very hot & sleepless few nights as the temperature soared! Kathy's mother was travelling with us & found the steps up to the apartment a challenge with her arthritic hips. I recommend the picturesque walk to Fiumelatte for lunch @ Hosteria del Platano, delicious! Suitable for maximum four adults as there is only one bathroom & the two single rooms are connected & share the same exit door. We would love to return one day
