Laglio Contemporary Home with pool sleeps 4 by Italian Apartments.

We loved the location and the view was wonderful, worth the 92 step climb up to the apartment. Julie was flexible and let us check in a couple of hours early. However, we never did meet her in person despite a request to do so as we had some questions. This was my only VRBO rental that the owner's representative did not meet me in person to show me around the unit and answer any questions. Main issue was parking, on the day that we arrived the communal parking was full and there was very limited parking down by the lake front. I ended up having to drive around for some time trying to find a parking spot. Please note that the communal parking is very tight and not all slots are accessible with a full size vehicle. The apartment description states that there is a private parking place in a garage a 5 min walk away. When I enquired about using it, it transpires that this is not actually owned by the apartment and hence is only available if its owner is not using it. Julie promised to check its availability, but never did get back to me. Fortunately, we were able to find parking during the rest of our stay, but this could be more of a problem in peak season and during market day when the communal parking has to be vacated.

Excellent location, view second to none, clean and uncluttered. Easy share for two couples. Be prepared to carry suitcases up quite a few stairs! The price you pay for a view.

We stayed in the Contemporary apartment of the Laglio Garden Apartments, specifically chosen as it came with two double bedrooms as we were two couples. Fantastic facilities in the apartment, separate bathrooms for each couple and very comfortable beds. All facilities and equipment available. The wrap around balcony allowed for some fantastic views of the lake; this apartment sits perfectly on the lake for a full, uniterupted view, it was truly breath taking to see. Pool was a brilliant addition and we spent a few days relaxing with little interruption from others stopping in the block. The steps up and down to the roads are not for the faint hearted, it certainly keeps you fit during your stay. Julie was fantastic during our stay, ready to greet us when we arrived and checked by a few times to check we were ok. There was lots of recommendations and advice of things to try on the lake in the apartment. Laglio is a quiet part of Lake Como, which made it nice to be away from the busy parts, but it did mean we had to travel around, which was fine as we wanted to see as much of the lake as possible. We did not hire a car and this did not cause an issue as there are two bus services running through Laglio, they are not regular but ensuring you are organised and ready for the bus meant it was easy to plan a trip out. I would recommend using Google Maps of ‘Moovit’ apps to plan your journey around bus times. Overall, we had a fantastic stay in Laglio and on Lake Como, Barrie and Julie made organising our stay very easy and I would definitely recommend booking with them, in fact, directly with them through their ‘Italian Apartments’. Thanks again Barrie and Julie!

We had a great time and a pleasant stay at the apartment in Laglio. The view is even better than it looks on the pictures. Great beds to sleep in, perfect place. We really loved it and had a very good time. Thanks so much to Julie and Barrie for their great service and hospitality.

Nice location with good views. Apartment clean with everything you’d need. Stairs do keep you fit during your stay and help work off all the Gelato. Barrie and Julie were very good communicators and were quick to sort out a WIFI issue. Booked directly with them and avoided the Home Away booking fee.

We stayed at this laglio residence last month as part of an extended family get together. We booked 2 of the 5 homes which definitely matched up to their billing. A view we never tired of gazing at, the quiet and tranquil scenery of village life in Laglio and the home itself which was just as described and kitted out to a exacting standards. The village is very, very quiet and perfect for recharging our batteries. Laglio has a couple of authentic Italian eateries, a couple of bars and convenience stores so not for every one however the ferry stop is only a 10 minute drive. The Crotto was a real highlight and a favourite for lakeside dining, thanks to Julie for the tip. Julie, the host, was a fountain of knowledge and it was great to get a locals insight into lake and where to visit and to avoid. Thanks for a great stay. The greatest compliment I can make is that if you intend to visit Lake Como in luxury stay here in this Laglio residence.

Thank you Barrie and Julie for welcoming us back on the Lake to this great modern appartment in Laglio, and for looking after us all so well. It is tastefully decorated and furnished and has everything for a comfortable stay. The view of the lake is fabulous from the wrap around balcony, (the view from the kayaks on the lake looking back up is pretty good too) and a dip in the pool was always welcome during our sunny week here. Laglio is well positioned for getting round the lake and a little quieter than some of the other towns, which we like. It is only a short stroll to the few bars and restaurants situated along the lakeside, where we could sit with a glass of prosecco & endless antipasti! This is on our list for a return visit.

This apartment is ideal for two couples. Well equipped with all contemporary fittings, appliances, etc. Situated on a hillside with wonderful views of the lake. Great location for touring nearby towns and villages by automobile. Climb up to the apartment can be somewhat challenging but the view is worth the effort. Julie was delightful and available to answer questions and provide recommendations as needed. Worth every penny!

Really enjoyed our stay here in Laglio. From the booking to arrival the whole process was seamless. Julie looked after us extemely well and was always available throughout our stay helping out with ferry timings, restaurant bookings (the crotto was superb, thank you!) and where to find the best local wine bars. The home has been tastefully furnished to a high standard and offers excellent value for money. Needless to say the view is to die for. Was a joy to wake up here each morning and return at night to watch the sun go down and watch the chaning lights over the lake.We will defintely return. Thank you Julie.

Thoroughly enjoyed our time here in Laglio. The view really is to die for and the home is kitted out to a high standard just like the photos, all immaculately presented on arrival and spotlessly clean. The booking process was straighforward and on arrival we were met by the delightful Julie who could not have been more helpfull throughout our stay. Comfy sofa's and beds. Excellent wifi and satellite tv. The stairs that access the home did not bother us even though one of our Group is 80 years old! Unforunately we did not meet George Clooney but we will definitely be back next year. We rarely if ever return to the same place twice but have made an exception and booked once more for the coming year.
