About this property

Fontana Del Lago Apt. 5, Varenna (Fiumelatte), Italy

A perfect getaway with lake view sun terrace!

Boasting a fabulous sunny lake view sun terrace this modernised property is situated in an exclusive residence which has been built in the ancient grounds of a noble villa in the charming and well serviced village of Fiumelatte.

The modernised property is ideal for small to medium sized groups up to 6 with a spacious open plan living room with sofa, flat screen TV and direct access through French doors to the splendid terrace.

A dining area sitting up to 6 is situated to the open plan lake view room and a stylish separate kitchen fitted in a contemporary finish with modern day appliances ideal for a comfortable self catering holiday is situated off from the living room. Appliances include a gas hob oven, toaster, microwave and coffee machine.

The sunny lake view terrace is of an extremely generous size with enough space for sunbathing on the sun-loungers and for dining alfresco, with incredible panoramic views of the famous Golden Triangle towns of Varenna, Bellagio and Menaggio! The breathtaking lake view really serves as the most memorable backdrop to your holiday here and is truly unique with surrounding views of the ancient villa grounds with its historical grotto fountain and the famous Fiumelatte river which gushes down past the apartment.

The property ideally sleeps 4-6 guests with a spacious master bedroom with double bed leading out onto a sunny balcony terrace and a second bedroom furnished with a small double bed and study desk. The double sofa bed to the living room can be also used to accommodate additional guests as and when required.

A modern bathroom fitted with a power shower, wash basin, WC, bidet and washing machine completes the property and a private garage is located in the gated grounds.

The picturesque village of Fiumelatte provides guests with a local grocery shop, bakery and an authentic Italian restaurant ideal for dining out as well as a beautiful lakefront setting surrounded by ancient villas, townhouses and lush gardens around the atmospheric Fiumelatte river. The village also benefits from a frequent bus service, a mainline train station with services to Lecco and Milan and lake road which leads directly into the resort town of Varenna in a matter of minutes!

Varenna is the perfect town to explore during your stay with the famous attractions of Villa Monastero with its botanical gardens and the ancient Castello di Vezio with its falconry displays and medieval displays during the summertime. The beautiful town is also very popular with romantics who are drawn to its tree-lined piazzas featuring boutique shops, it’s pretty café lined lakefront with its scenic promenade and fine lake view dining which can be found in the many hotels in the eastern shore town.

A fast and frequent car and passenger ferry service runs from the town to Bellagio and Menaggio making the other central lake attractions all highly accessible. Central lake activities include lake and lido swimming, golf, tennis, water sports, sailing, kayaking, paragliding, hiking and cycling.

Needs to be cleaned and better maintained!!
The location and view from the terrace were wonderful, the garage and elevator were appreciated. However there were many things that needed to be improved. The dish washer didn't work, the freezer was completely frosted over, the shower had mold in the corners and on the shower door and there were spiders and cob webs and the shower drain was very slow and we stood in several inches of water when using the shower, the chairs on the terrace left a white film on our clothing, the wall in one of the bedrooms was being repaired and the dust from sanding wasn't even swept up. This apartment could be very nice, but in really needs to be updated and taken care of better. If it doesn't get taken care of, we would never recommend it. We don't think we got our money's worth.

Outstanding view of the lake and mountains
Nice apartment with a large terrace with a beautiful view over the lake and mountains. We missed a parasol on the terrace so bring our own. The apartment is good and clean, it’s equipped with was is needed and not more. Tip, if you want to go for dinner in Varenna? Book a table, we was standing in queue to get a table. From the apartment you walk to Varenna, there is about 2,5 km. But be aware, you need to drive to get to a supermarket. We found a small rocky beach 200 meters from the apartment, so you can easily get a swim. I will recommend the apartment.

Fontana Del Lago Apt. 5
Pros: THE VIEW Size of the apartment Garage for the car Towels and bedlinen available Easy check-in and check-out Short walk for a swim in the lake Well equiped kitchen in terms om hardware like oven, freezer etc (tableware/ kitchen utensils was lacking a little bit though) It’s possible to walk to Varenna Cons: Chairs/table on terrace gave us all an unpleasant itch on legs and under-arms + chairs made our clothes white. Perhaps it was glass fibre dust or something from the chairs/table that caused the itch. Very strange why there is no parasol/sun-umbrella available for the terrace. We had to bring one from home, since otherwise it’s way too hot to make use of the fantastic terrace. Wi-fi didn’t work Travelers tip: If you’re going out for dinner, pre-book a table!
