Apartment holiday rentals in Lake Lugano

If you've ever dreamed of staying in a gorgeous villa, nestled high in the mountains, with incredible views of Lake Como then Villa Nina is the place for you. Claudio and Maria are incredibly kind and responsive to all inquiries - they made us feel right at home. The benefit of being further from the hustle and bustle of Varenna (approx 6-8 min drive) is that you can experience a truly local experience. I opened my window each morning to incredible views with sounds of the beautiful stream nearby. Some of the amenities (veranda, pool) are shared but this was not an issue for our family. We were able to enjoy everything on the property. The villa itself is well-appointed with everything you need for your stay. We traveled as a family of four (2 adults, 1 teenager, 1 older child) and everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. We look forward to our next stay at Villa Nina!

Tout était parfait , juste une remarque , la voiture est indispensable , l appartement est superbement bien situé , dans une résidence de haut standing , environnement très calme , reposant. Mais pour s approvisionner , c est le parcours du combattant , il faut prévoir .

Ein kleines Appartment mit allem was man braucht in traumhafter Lage mit einem wunderschönen Blick auf den See und die Stadt Lugano. Vorallem der kleine Garten, die Gemeinschaftsterrasse und der Pool sind wirklich ein Mehrwert. Die Seilbahn 🚠 hält quasi direkt vor der Türe 😍. Wir können die Unterkunft jedem empfehlen der etwas abseits von der Stadt (trotzdem super schnell erreichbar) wohnen möchte und die schöne Aussicht bevorzugt. Maddalena ist eine tolle Gastgeberin, antwortet super schnell und wir durften sogar am Abreisetag eine Stunde länger schlafen und später abreisen 🫶🏻. Wir können den Olivenweg ganz in der Nähe empfehlen, schöner Weg am Wasser mit tollen Aussichtspunkten und kleinem Örtchen mit wundervoll kleinen Gassen. Eine Bootsfahrt lohnt sich auch! Ein tolles Stück Erde ☀️

Sehr netter Gastgeber und Wohnung wie auf den Bildern! Alles ist fußläufig erreichbar (solange man gut auf den Beinen ist, wegen vieler Treppen :)) und man kann mit dem Boot für wenig Geld in andere Städte wie z.B. Como fahren, was sehr schön war.

Belle expérience dans ce logement. Vue exceptionnelle, emplacement très bien et appartement parfaitement propre! De plus Moreno est très accueillant et flexible pour les heures d'arrivée/ départ. Juste un petit point d'amélioration : nous aurions apprécié qu'il y ait un petit fond de maison pour l'arrivée. Au global nous recommandons fortement cet appartement, merci Moreno !

We had the pleasure of spending a few unforgettable days at Katie’s beautiful apartment in Ronco sopra Ascona. The view is absolutely breathtaking – Lake Maggiore stretches out at your feet, with Ascona and the Brissago Island in full view, framed by the surrounding mountains. The long hours of sunshine on the spacious terrace were a true highlight. The apartment is nice furnished, very well maintained, and offers plenty of space with its three bedrooms – ideal for families or small groups. Everything was clean and perfectly prepared – you can tell Katie is a thoughtful and caring host. The location is peaceful, yet just a short drive from Ascona and the lake. The combination of privacy, stunning views, and comfort makes this place a real gem. We’d love to come back – thank you, Katie!

Great location and easy check in! The apartment is very comfortable. Thanks for a great stay.

Absolutely wonderful stay and amazing host. The apartment was exactly as described and the views and location were perfect. We loved sitting on the balcony, looking over the water and watching and hearing the people below. There are 2 wine bars just outside the door and also many restaurants. Alberto picked us up at the station and explained the apartment and area. Giorgio’s kindness was immeasurable. The trains had unexpectedly stopped running and he personally booked our transportation back to Milan and drove us to meet a new express bus. We could have never done this without him, as this was unpublished at the time. What a wonderful man! Varenna is a beautiful small village and there are many outstanding restaurants and things to do. Our highlight was taking a cooking class with Chef Marco, Chef’s Table, and later dining at his new restaurant, La Scarpetta. We recommend visiting the villas in town, taking the Taxi Boat to Villa Balbianello and hiking to the waterfall in Fiumelatte.

Absolutely LOVED staying at Anna's apartment! We adored Argegno - a lovely historic town that was much quieter than surrounding towns. Anna's apartment was spacious and the terrace and views were breathtaking. Anna was a wonderful host who was very quick to communicate. We would definitely stay again.

Wonderful place to stay. Clear instructions. close to lake and restaurants.

Villa Cardona was a pleasure to visit. The Villa is modern, well appointed, and has beautiful views. Peter was a friendly and informative host.

The place itself is very comfortable and had everything you need. The view of lake Como is stunning and location was great. Easy walk to shops, bus and ferry station. Denis is very proactive and helped us with finding another accommodation due a mix up of dates on our behalf. Would highly recommend to stay at this lovely apartment.

We stayed at Alice’s apartment in Gandria, just outside Lugano, and absolutely loved it. The apartment is beautifully situated with a breathtaking view of Lake Lugano—it’s truly the highlight of the place. Waking up to that serene lake scene every morning was unforgettable. The apartment itself was clean, well-equipped, and cozy—perfect for a quiet and relaxing getaway. Even though it rained for much of our stay, the space was so comfortable that we didn’t mind spending extra time indoors, just enjoying the view and peaceful atmosphere. Alice was a thoughtful and responsive host, providing clear instructions and helpful tips about the area. The location is ideal for those looking to unwind away from the busier city center, while still being close enough to enjoy everything Lugano has to offer. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a tranquil retreat with unbeatable lake views. I’d definitely stay here again—hopefully with sunnier weather next time!

Stunning views from our balcony and such great hosts, always responsive and allowed us to drop our bags earlier so we could enjoy our short time in Como. The apartment is located on the 5th floor right on the lake so the balcony is the perfect place for a glass of wine or a coffee. We also had a delicious pizza in a local restaurant recommended by our hosts.

What an exceptional experience, thanks to exceptional hosts, in an exceptional place! I cannot recommend Sandra and Raffaele's place enough. Aside from the stunningly beautiful property, comfortable, and well-equipped accommodation, their kindness was truly very special and much appreciated. They generously took the time to collect me at the train station, and drop me off upon departure. My visit went by in a blink of an eye; I wish I could have stayed longer in what was a truly idyllic setting. I will absolutely return and grateful to have discovered their place. The views, walks, restaurants/conveniences were incredible, and I will treasure my happy memories until I return. Many, many thanks! :) Kind regards, Kim

Die Aussicht war einfach atemberaubend – schon beim Eintreten durch die Tür war ich sprachlos. Allein für diesen Ausblick gibt es 5 Sterne! Die Unterkunft liegt in einer traumhaft schönen Lage, umgeben von einer wundervollen Ortschaft und herzlichen Menschen. Absolut empfehlenswert

Great, great place! And as important (more?), I great, great host! Marco is one of the truly great hosts! Location was great, place was spotless and equipped beyond expectations! I had lost my razor along the way, and to my amazement, there was an individually wrapped "shaving kit", along with other little kits of things people forget! I honestly don't recall more comfortable sleeps than my nights here! All around truly one of the best! Highly, highly recommended!

נוף מדהים של האגם מהמרפסת. אחלה דירה נקיה ויפה. תקשורת מעולה ותגובות מהירות של המארחים.

Spent an amazing couple of days at this place! Really pleased with Monica’s communication and helpfulness. Her recommendations for restaurants and cafes were great and the house was very clean. 100% recommended!

Ce séjour en famille s’est extrêmement bien passé ; nous nous sommes régalés dans le logement de Luca qui correspondait parfaitement à la description. L’atout charme : le spa et le jacuzzi avec une vue imprenable sur le lac 😍 Un grand merci aux co-hôtes Andrea et Carla pour leur gentillesse et leur réactivité dans les échanges avant, pendant et après notre séjour. Je recommande sans hésitation !

Grazie Francesco, la cura di ogni singolo dettaglio nelle comunicazioni, la pulizia impeccabile degli spazi e la tua disponibilità, ci hanno fatti sentire a casa e hanno reso la nostra serata ancora più speciale. Estremamente consigliato. TOP

This place is perfect, a close walk to everything, very clean, the host is very nice and helpful, highly recommend!!

Upea asunto, jossa oli mukava viettää yhteistä aikaa. Keittiö ja terassialue soveltuvat hyvin yhteiseen oleskeluun. Ylimmältä tasanteelta hienot näkymät Milanon ylle, samoin paljusta Duomolle päin. Läheltä löytyy marketti ja metroasema pienen kävelymatkan päästä. Asunto vaikutti isommalta kuin kuvissa. Todella rauhallinen rakennus. Kodinhengetär oli ystävällinen ja antoi vinkkejä Milanossa oleskeluun. Oli luksusta, että hän kävi päivittäin siivoamassa. Laukut sai tuoda ennakkoon tai jättää uloskirjautumisen jälkeen muutamaksi tunniksi asuntoon. Tulisin uudelleen. Suosittelen!

Rolig og flott sted, leiligheten var som beskrevet i annonsen. Vi var 6 voksne som hadde ei flott uke i leiligheten med flott utsikt. Vi leide sykler fra @Bike it! Bellagio, veldig god service her også. Fint å sykle å oppleve nye steder, ferge fra Bellagio gikk til begge sidene av innsjøen og var lett tilgjengelig 😊
