We enjoyed our stay and the host and her family very much! The view was outstanding. We visited in October and definitely needed the heaters available in the evenings. There were many options for bedding, linens and the kitchen was stocked with supplies. We recommend this property to others!

This was such a lovely place with breathtaking panoramic views. It has a serenity that is welcoming after a day of touring. It is a perfect location and excellent for taking day trips to Lake Orta, Switzerland, Lake Como, etc. Everything you need is available and the hostess, Gabriella, is delightful. It was one of our most favorite rentals on a long trip.

Stunning Location at Lake Maggiore. Hard to imagine a better view. Uninterrupted view from Stresa across the Lake. House very clean and tidy with everything you could need. Gabriella a great host, waiting for us on arrival and gave us a very comprehensive explanation of the property. A dedicated parking spot for the property made things very easy for us. The neighborhood is very quiet - perfect. Air conditioning in the main living area and both bedrooms and shutters which help maintain the cooler air if you are out. There is a small dedicated footpath just up the hill from the property which takes you to Stresa centre. It's all uphill on the way back and is not lit by streetlights. There is also one short stretch (maybe 50m) which is very rough and loose but passable with care. Stresa town is very nice with lots of bars restaurants and Gelato shops. There is a Carrefour supermarket right in the centre aswell as a Conad just outside the centre of Stresa. We felt no need to go to any bigger supermarkets (which we usually would do). In all one of the best holidays I've ever had in Italy. Thoroughly recommended property. Nick and Alison.

While we had some challenges with our GPS finding the location, the surprise on arrival was magical. The property has a unique view over the lake, and the garden is a real park with beautiful trees and flowering shrubs. There is plenty of space inside and outside to relax with a cup of coffee, a glass of local wine, and delicious local cheeses. The kitchen has all the necessary amenities, and unlike many VRBOs we have stayed at, everything works. The vacuum cleaner bag is not full, the knives are sharp, the appliances are high-quality, and the bathroom is like a hotel bathroom. Gabriella, the owner, is a delightful lady who was available anytime by text when necessary. The town of Stresa has great restaurants and shops where local products are made locally. Shopping for food is great with two shopping centres and a greengrocer in town.However, having a train station in town was great for going to Milan and the airport, and for visiting the surrounding area.

Lovely apartment

Our stay in this Stresa apartment was delightful. Gabriella greeted us personally, and was very kind and helpful. We enjoyed the quiet, relatively remote location (uphill away from the city center), and also access to a beautiful trail to the town that kept us from having to walk on the narrow, curvy roads. We couldn't get enough of the view from the sitting room and wraparound deck. Of the three rentals we had on our trip, this was our favorite.

The perfect place to stay on the beautiful lake

This is perfect place to stay on the beautiful lake!!! My husband and I cannot say enough good things about this GORGEOUS apartment. Gabriela greeted us with a warm smile and she was an incredible hostess. We did not need one thing due to her hospitality. The views of the lake are breathtaking and made our trip to Lake Maggiore even more magical. We would recommend this apartment for any couples looking for a romantic getaway

Spectacular View of Lago Maggiore

The view from this property is just spectacular. It has a comfortable and large balcony/deck. The bright living room is surrounded by windows which provides for breath taking views. The property itself is in a great neighbourhood, well placed for access to Stresa and surrounding area. There is a nice trail if you want to walk into town and it takes about 20 minutes.

Perfect!

Perfect house. Comfortable and clean. The walk to town was beautiful and rustic. We were glad we brought a backpack carrier for our 4 year old though as it was quite a steep walk. The neighbors were lovely and the neighborhood was calm and quiet. The hosts were gracious and helpful. Overall a fantastic stay for our family of 4.

This home was perfect for us. The pictures are accurate- the view is spectacular! The space was lovely and up to date, and the neighborhood is convenient and quiet.

Great host, Great property, Great location

The property is exceptional and the owner is very hospitable. In addition to a nice bottle of red wine and some local speciality bicuits, Gabriella was also very helpful with suggestions of where to shop and sights to see. The location is unbeatable and the property overlooks Lake Maggiore and in the distance one can see the snow capped Swiss Alps. It is a very short drive to the centre of Stresa and the area is very peaceful. The rooms are well proportioned and everything was in order. We look forward to visiting again.

Back to Lago Maggiore

We returned to Gabriela's wonderful villa after five years. It was even better than we remembered. The villa layout is well designed, kitchen appliances and furniture is really good and the the view to Lago Maggiore is breath taking. Gabriella had done some renovation since our last visit and everything was done really nicely. During this trip, we visited also Lake Orta and and Orta San Giulia. It is a really nice medieval town and we can recommend a trip over there.
