Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Montecrestese

This home is incredible. The view is stunning. But it is a decent hike up to the house. If you come by ferry it would take 30 mins from terminal to get to the home with many steps. Very challenging with a heavy suitcase. If you come by car it will take approximately 10-15 mins. Lots of stairs. Pack light if you’re able to. The home itself is over 3 levels by a spiral staircase. Bring light luggage if possible. The deck is so nice to spend time on. Lovely, memorable home with a friendly helpful host. Will never forget this beautiful place

Der Aufenthalt bei Brigitte und Edgar war wunderbar erholsam. Der Ausblick alleine ist für sich schon 5 Sterne wert - selten haben wir so viele Sterne beobachten können. Die Wohnung ist sehr abgelegen und für Ruhe suchende Naturliebhaber wirklich zu empfehlen. Die Wanderwege haben wir allerdings nicht getestet. Auch die Nachbarn haben wir kaum mitbekommen. Wir empfehlen bei Tageslicht anzureisen, da der Fußweg im Dunklen zur Wohnung etwas abenteuerlich ist. Ansonsten empfehlen wir die Wohnung gerne weiter - wir hatten nichts auszusetzen.

Quiet comfortable place with slightly quirky decor and great view from the balcony. Two comfortable bedrooms. Kitchen is fully equipped, but small and with a low ceiling. Communication with host was good and check in easy. In general all good.

Deze plek is een oase van rust en de mooiste natuur om je heen. In de ochtend vroeg wakker worden door alle soorten vogels die er maar zijn en dan daarna klaar maken voor een stevige wandeling door het dal of ergens in de bergen. Nogmaals wat een fijne plek!!

I cannot state this enough. This home is great but the hosts are even better. So friendly so helpful! I would recommend anyone stay here!

This home is in an outstanding location overlooking the lake and Lugano. We were blown away by the view from every window. The location was very peaceful, and the home was extremely well-stocked. We enjoyed coffee on the balcony or the covered deck every day (depending on how hot it was!). The home is located a quick drive to downtown Lugano, and a short drive to the top of Monte Bre (highly recommend!) and to Gandria (also highly recommend). We fell in love with Lugano and the surrounding area thanks in part to this house…we will definitely be back.

Perfetto per chi cerca tranquillità e natura. Un alloggio molto curato nei dettagli, cucina ben attrezzata e comoda, splendide vetrate sull'incantevole borgo. Un piacere fare colazione sul balconcino! Anche se le temperature del periodo erano alte, nell'appartamento si stava bene e si riposava freschi la notte. Posizione strategica per visitare diverse valli. Accoglienza amichevole e discreta del signor Paolo. Consigliato vivamente.

Paola è andata oltre la sua disponibilità, sempre super reattiva. La casa è deliziosa e le sere d'estate offre un tranquillo giardino dove guardare le stelle...al fresco! bello

Kathi’s place is very cosy and homely. The apartment has everything you might need and more with lots of space inside and nice outside area for sitting in the sun and enjoying the lovely surrounding areas. Lots of walks and bike trails in the area. We absolutely loved the fireplace! Really enjoyed staying here, highly recommend :)

We (me and my brother) had a great stay here, the weather helped a lot. We could even sit outside on the small balcony in the evening (not very common). The studio isn’t big, but cosy. If you are ‘older’, please take into account that you have to get up some stairs. Parking in front of the house was very convenient and Alexandra responded quickly to some questions we had. Nice, cozy place.

Als Vermieter. Er ist sehr nett und die Wohnung war sehr sauber. Gebäude ist im Alten still tolles Holz ich hab mich so wie zu Hause gefühlt ist zu empfehlen 👍🏼10/10

Everything was perfect!! The apartment was spacious, well furnished and so comfortable!! Kitchen was well stocked with premier utensils. The location was great to explore the waterfront and beautiful surroundings. We parked in the 30 minute lot at the head of the street to load and unload. The parking pass that he provided for us was a key benefit. We would highly recommend Stefano’s apartment and would surely stay there again.

Host molto preciso e disponibile, pulizia dell'appartamento impeccabile. Ci siamo trovati molto bene.

Reto est super sympathique et parle apparemment de nombreuses langues parfaitement! La cuisine est non seulement très jolie, alliant du mobilier ancien et charmant avec de l’électroménager récent de très bonne qualité (cuisinière induction, hotte d’aspiration du futur, tous les ustensiles nécessaires à disposition, magnifique frigo… le tout d’une propreté impeccable). Difficile ensuite de revenir dans notre appartement citadin modeste 😅 On n’a manqué de rien, il est également possible de manger à l’extérieur. Les containers pour les poubelles sont très proches, aucun problème sans voiture. Pareil pour la salle de bains, confortable et généreusement fournie en serviettes de différentes tailles et produits de base fort appréciés. L’ensemble est extrêmement cosy et confortable, très accueillant et chaleureux. On espère revenir bientôt! Et la région est absolument fantastique, on a eu la chance de faire des randonnées magiques et espérons beaucoup pouvoir revenir chez Reto en hiver!

We had a wonderful stay as a family of four with a newborn in this charming attic apartment. Located on the third floor of a rustic chalet, the space was cozy, and the view overlooking the river was absolutely breathtaking—easily one of the highlights of our stay. The apartment was well-appointed, with a fully equipped kitchen that had everything we needed (and more). The espresso coffee machine—such a thoughtful touch! Convenient private parking made coming and going stress-free. since the apartment is on the third floor and accessed via stairs, packing light is a good idea—but the climb is well worth it for the view and the cozy atmosphere. Though the stairwell is technically shared with the owner who lives on the lower floors, it never felt like a shared space. We had full privacy throughout our stay. Overall, it was a peaceful and comfortable retreat in a beautiful setting. Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy nature with modern comforts at hand.

This is a one of a kind airbnb - an extremely beautiful home. Great for a romantic trip. If you are planning to do significant travel in between towns, it is a bit more difficult location-wise as it is a ~20-25 minute walk (no sidewalk) to Torno for ferries and taxis are hard to come by, but you can plan your day around the ferry times. Monica was very responsive and made check-in easy. Would stay here again.

Wir haben uns bei Sonja vom ersten Empfang heimisch gefühlt. In der Wohnung fehlte es uns an nichts. Sie ist vollständig und für körperlich eineschränkte Gäste ausgestattet, bis hin zum Nähzeug und kleinen Gesellschaftsspielen. Eine familiäre Atmosphäre haben wir auf dem gesamten Gelände gespürt, mit Spielsachen und -geräten für Kinder. Sonja war uns gegenüber immer verbindlich und hilfsbereit. Ein Aufenthalt, den wir schon heute zu unseren schönsten Urlaubsunterkünften zählen und uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen können.

Best way to describe this location is STUNNING! The views are breath taking - more beautiful in person than the photos! We loved our stay - hard to beat having morning coffee & evening wine surrounded by such beauty! The night view when the lights appear is as beautiful as the day view! A car was necessary but well worth it. David was a very responsive and helpful host & we would definitely stay again if we have that opportunity!

Sehr modene uns stilvolle Wohnung. Super eingerichtet. Flexibler und einfacher Check-In.

Wir hatten sehr erholsame Tage bei Katrin, die uns sehr herzlich willkommen geheißen hat. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber und der Ausblick zum See wunderschön! Man ist umgeben von einem schönen grünen Garten, bei dem wir uns sogar an den frischen Kräutern bedienen durften. Auch die Möglichkeit, die zwei SUPs auszuleihen, um auf dem Lago zu paddeln hat uns sehr gefallen. Wir kommen gerne wieder 🥰

Es war alles super! Alessandro hat extrem schnell auf die Nachrichten geantwortet und war sehr freundlich. Die Unterkunft ist optimal für Personen, die flexibel mit dem Auto sind. Der Balkon ist traumhaft. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber gereinigt.

Die Kommunikation auch schon im Vorfeld war sehr freundlich und die Anreise war somit einfach und entspannt. Wir wurden, als wir ankamen, ganz herzlich in Empfang genommen. Die Wohnung ist toll und wir fühlten uns sofort sehr wohl. Es ist alles durchdacht und fehlt an Nichts. Das habe ich bisher selten erlebt. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder und ich kann diesen Ort zu 100% weiterempfehlen.

This was truly one of the best airbnb experiences I have had. The location was perfect for us to reach the airport at the end of our trip and Chu Yi was even kind enough to drive us to the train station. Overall, I would 100% recommend this airbnb to anyone in the future!

This place is spacious, spotless, and absolutely stunning, and Mavi is such a great host. She took time to explain everything to us and all the ways to enhance our trip with lots of recommendations for fun excursions and delicious restaurants. We so enjoyed sitting on the balconies in the evening, overlooking the lake, and we even were able to catch the fireworks during the holiday weekend. What a pleasant surprise that was for us! We will definitely be back if we’re ever in the area again, and we highly recommend this house to anyone looking to enjoy beautiful Stresa on Lake Maggiore!
