Vista d'Oro Ulivo Apt. 7, Perledo, Italy

This has the potential to be an amazing property as the view is breathtaking. Unfortunately the property was really outdated and dirty. The sofa had loads of stains on it and was filthy…we had to put a bed sheet over it to sit down. The bed frame was just as dirty. The toilet looked like it hadn’t seen bleach at all and the bottom of the toilet was black. The toilet seat was also yellow from wee stains. We had no hot water for 24 hours…the good thing was when I spoke to customer service they sent someone out to fix it pretty quick. Overall the property needs some work, the view is unbelievable but i wouldn’t return due to how dirty it was. Update your property…it needs some love.

Room 7 had a beautiful view but it was dated and had mold in some areas. Overall a beautiful stay

Bring your walking shoes because it is a straight up trek! Better yet, get a taxi! The climb is on cobblestones. The apartment is simple but has stunning views. If you plan on cooking, bring spices as the cupboards are bare. There’s a local store up the hill that has basic amenities.

Stay for three nights. Definitely a hike to get to the place but took the bus and taxi up a few times. Everyone knew where it was. Town had a small supermarket which was great. Lots of small restaurants nearby.

Lovely view of Lake Como. Smooth check in.

Everything was perfect and exactly as described.

A spacious apartment with stunning views over Varenna and Lake Como. Well appointed and stocked with cutlery, utensils and so on , and the welcome pack was a nice touch. The apartment is a little bit showing some wear and tear with a few cracked tiles. The shower sometimes struggled to get warm and the drain needed a good clean. Main issue we had was with parking. The apartment is listed as having parking which was a must for us S we were on a multi week tour using a rental car. On receiving the pre checkin info it is disclosed that the parking is first come first serve, and not guaranteed. In several occasions returning to the apartment the parking was full, and we had to park on the narrow road leading to the complex, and this area was also often full. On a couple of occasions we luckily obtained the last spot but saw other guests in the complex unable to park due to unavailability of space. With no other parking available near to the complex this could have been an issue. The pool area was slightly disappointing, it was at the back of the complex and most of the view is of the apartments, rather than the lake. Maintenance was also a little lacking as the pool shower had a wasp nest in the drain, so clearly hadn’t been used for some time. Overall a nice apartment with a great view and well located for Varenna, but the lack of guaranteed parking was disappointing.

Location was perfect t for us - away from the crowds of Varenna but you do need a car or be willing to walk up/ down the hill (25 mins and there are stairs so you don’t need to walk too much on the road). For the price would’ve expected things like wifi access to be detailed in the apartment (we had to ring the hosts to get the password) and some basic cooking supplies for the very well equipped kitchen like salt, pepper, olive oil. Really enjoyed our stay and the views from Apartment 7.

It was a nice but not clean appartement, with a beautiful view over the lake. For older or disabled people you have to know that the only way to arrive the appartement is a stair with 52 steps!!!

Amazing views, spacious space. The kitchen was well equipped and the bed was very comfortable. The property is located on a steep hill so if you are walking it’s a good exercise. We had a car but chose to walk and enjoyed it. The town of Varenna is little less touristy in comparison to Bellagio which is exactly what we wanted. Overall, perfect property and reasonably priced.

We had a great time, amazing views, close the center of Varenna. Totally recommend

good location

We ADORE the view from this place and found it very comfortable overall (although we were there during a heat wave and would have loved air conditioning -- or a fan that worked better than the one provided, which was pretty poor). We also enjoyed the pool each day and appreciated the washing machine. We WILL be back! :)
