Villa Perla Del Lago : main villa - lake views, pool, hot tub, max. 14 people

A wonderful property in a great location with stunning views of the lake and alps. We could never tire of the view from the veranda when we sat our for dinner every night. The property was clean and well equipped and the hosts very attentive and dealt with our needs immediately. If anything the description of the property undersells it. There is no mention in the details of the gym equipment on the open covered veranda next to the hot-tub, the football pool or the sand pit. My only complaint would be that we had to pay for additional electricity as we went over the 45kWh included in the price, which isn't clear from the description. I do understand why there is a limit with energy prices so high, but we did not use electricity wastefully, so I think the inclusive amount is too low. Having said all that, thank you Romina for a lovely stay. This property and location is not too be missed. I would recommend without reservation.

We had a wonderful holiday, Romina and Fabio were lovely. Villa was lovely and the views stunning.

I just spent a week enjoying the peace and tranquility of Lake Como in this villa. Romina and Fabio were marvellous, the property perfect, and the whole experience a delight. I will definitely be coming back in the future.

Excellent villa Smart 19th century villa with modern appliances Lovely outside area Beautiful location overlooking the lake Situated in small town with all necessary amenities

My family made plans to visit Lake Como before Covid changed the world. I chose to stay at Romina’s beautiful villa 3 years ago and was determined to get there this year. Romina was an exceptional host . The villa was exactly as it was presented in photos and more. The views were amazing ! We absolutely loved the villa and it’s location. I felt so blessed to have had the opportunity to visit such a beautiful place. Missing you already Romina. Thank you !!!!

This property is in an enviable position looking over the northern part of Lake Como. The outside areas are great as is the kitchen, lounge and bathroom facilities. The bedrooms are traditional in their feel. There is no practical on site parking although parking is available nearby up a steep cobbled path on a first come first served basis. This is not ideal if you have anyone in your party who has mobility issues. However, the whole experience for our party of 7 has been tarnished by what has happened since we returned home. On our return we had an email from Romina with some photos asking why we had not told her about the damage we had allegedly caused. This came as a complete shock to us as we had no idea how or when the cracks had appeared or been caused. We certainly had not seen them prior to our departure. I will try and include the photos we were sent. We have since spoken to people in the building trade and they have all advised that in their opinion the damage which are vertical symmetrical cracks in the walls either side of a bedroom doorway, look structural. The room in the picture is an upstairs bedroom and was occupied by 2 adults and their young daughter. Despite having advised Romina that her photos were the first time we knew of the damage she has laid the blame for it solely on our shoulders and taken the majority of a sizeable deposit we had paid up front. We have asked for a copy of the invoice but this has not been forthcoming. The whole affair has left a very bitter taste for us and it is obvious that we have no recourse in this matter and so we are left adrift and out of pocket..This whole episode has been extremely upsetting for our party and has made us nervous of making another booking. Even if we had taken loads of photos the area where the reported damage was located was in such a strange area we probably would not have thought to have taken a photo of that area. In conclusion If you do choose to stay at this property we would recommend you take as many photographs as you can, especially of the bedroom door frames.

We have recently returned from a weeks holiday in this beautiful villa which has been very well renovated and decorated in true Italian style. It is very spacious, clean and the modern kitchen came fully equipped with everything you could possibly need ...and more! Romina and Fabio (the owners) even stocked the American style fridge/freezer and cupboards with some essentials, including a bottle of prosecco ! The views from the villa are breathtaking. The garden is very well maintained with a large lawn and terrace and with a more than adequate undercover dining area. The decking area was clean and sheltered. Fabio came early every morning to maintain the pool. Please be aware that the pool is solar heated and although we had good weather for September, the pool was very cold. The hot tub was a massive hit with our family. Who could not sit and relax in 40c with a chilled glass of wine and absorb the beautiful views of the lake (even in the rain)! The villa is set in an elevated position about 15 minutes walk to a large supermarket (which we discovered closes for 3 hours over lunch). Romina and Fabio were extremely helpful in providing us with a lift back to the villa with all our food and wine. Good restaurants can be found down by the nearby ferry port, again around 15 minutes walk away. Romina and Fabio made us truly welcome. They were incredibly attentive but by no means intrusive. They live approx 200 metres from the villa and we used WhatsApp to converse with Romina. Romina speaks excellent English and was more than happy to make restaurant and taxi bookings. She can even arrange for a chef to come and cook for you in the villa should you so wish. We would highly recommend this villa and hope to return.

Exquisite villa. Absolutely the most beautiful, most well kept villa in which we have ever stayed. Picturesque cobble walkways into town, stunning views from the veranda, wonderful meals sitting in the covered pergola...Rooms were huge, spartan and extremely comfortable with beautifully done ceilings and wood floors. Kitchen had all of the amenities that you could want. The pool was refreshing and cleaned every morning by Fabio, Romina's husband. Domaso is such a lovely town and walking in the hills at Vercana was absolutely delightful. Really, I could go on and on about how comfortable and happy we were to be in such a magical place. Romina was accommodating in every possible way and a very warm host. We will stay at Villa Perla Del Lago again.

The five of us had a lovely weeks holiday, 13th to the 20th May, in this superb villa with breathtaking views. Luckily for us we had 26c and sun for 6 days, only 1 day of rain. The location of the villa is excellent but due to the villa being positioned on a hill with very cobbled paths it would not be ideal for people who are not able to move around well. To reach the villa from the small car park you need to walk a short way down a narrow cobbled path. Other than that it was just brilliant with the best views of any villa I have ever stayed in. The photos of the villa speak for themselves or though I would just add a couple of the cobbled path outside just so people are aware. All in all you will not be disappointed, enjoy the views, jacuzzi, sun beds, bbq, outdoor dining, good size bedrooms and kitchen plus new modern bathrooms. The supermarket can be seen from the villa, approx' 10mins walk or 4mins in the car, downhill. Approx' 15mins walk to the lakeside. If we ever went back to Lake Como, this is where we would stay again.

This was the second time we have stayed at this wonderful home, the hosts Romina and Fabio cannot do enough to make you welcome. From the moment you drive up the hill to see that wonderful view you feel like you have found your own piece of paradise with the amazing view of the lake and mountains. The property is home from home you want for nothing here, the beds are very comfortable and all facilities are top class. The property now benefits from a wonderful hot tub facing the view where you can sit and chill in the evenings. We will definitely be back and hope to see you both soon! The Smith Family (Liverpool)
