Best view from terrace. Dont miss golden sunset. Its a must. Open concept kitchen and outdoor dinning table was very useful. Sunset lounge chairs to enjoy the view. Parking was free in the property. Super convenient location especially if you have car to drive to main town and take ferry to visit nearby towns

Amazing patio and view, beautiful space

Loved it and can’t wait to return! The view is gorgeous—amazing sunsets and, in the morning, Varenna is lit up by the sun. The patio is also right next to an old waterfall/fountain ruin type of thing that is lit up at night and it’s stunning. The inside of the apartment is also fantastic and we loved the very large bathtub and the rain shower heads. A few things to know—it IS the penthouse so there are quite a bit of outside stairs to get to the apartment. It wasn’t really a problem for us but it might be tough for other guests. We had a car which was great as it allowed us to get groceries (there didn’t seem to be any nearby markets) and check out Bellano (which we loved) and the Castello Di Vezio (which was also great and our 6 year old particularly enjoyed) but the apartment is also close enough to Varenna that you can just walk into town (about a 20 minute hike either along the road which at points feels slightly treacherous or along the greenway which is a bit more up and down -and beautiful—but not near cars). When we were there it was in the upper 70s and low 80s and the apartment did get hot especially since it faces the sun for most of the day. The sleeping loft gets quite warm although there are two fans which helps and the downstairs bedroom does stay a bit cooler. But everywhere in town was hot—it’s just that time of year— and the ability to escape the crowds and everything else made this an absolutely amazing stay. The Varenna team was also really responsive!
