Die Lage

Der Preis

Lovely property across 2 independent apartments - great for friends / family holidaying together. Amazing views. Nice pool for a dip. Property is a 25 minute walk from Stresa centre up steep paths. There is one set of stairs to climb. Managed by adults and kids but all hot on arrival. Stresa is a small pretty town and has a good range of restaurants and shops with a ferry terminal and train station.

Cooker is small for number of people, luckily with 2 apartments we could cook on 2 floors and share limited cookware.

The location was great although not really walkable into stresa due to no pavement but easy to drive there. The view from the terrace was amazing and easy to spend time sitting looking at the view. We ate on the terrace and had drinks there and enjoyed the sun going down over the lake.The pool was big enough to dip in after a hot day and beautiful garden. The apartment was modern and comfortable but needs a bit of attention to detail to give the inside the wow factor of the outside

Only enough seating for 4 on the balcony and not enough loungers for everyone once the other apartment above was occupied. The guests above arrived at 1.30am which woke us up. The apartment was a bit dusty and dirty cooker inside and the bin had rubbish in. Only one pan worked on the induction stove. The shower in the front bedroom needed cleaning as it wouldn't drain. All things that could be sorted to make this apartment feel like it's worth the expense.

The view is breathtaking. The villa is situated almost at the top of the hill, so you can really enjoy the view to the Lago Maggiore. The size of the whole apartment was great, it has really big rooms with a lot of light. The kitchen equipment was good, has all the necessities (glasses, tea cups, wine glasses, cutleries, dishes etc.). There was an outdoor grill outside, so you can prepare your meal and sit on the table that was outside. Even though the check-in and check-out was impersonal, we really appreciated the videos about the keys, where to park and how to get into the apartment.

I would appreciate a closer look on the details in the appartment. We had apartment B, which is the one situated on the 2 floor. We missed wracks in the showers, you have no place to put shower cream or shampoo. We also missed some cabinets in bedrooms when you’re planning a longer visit. You have some wracks there but you dont put all the clothes on the wracks. 😉 Prepare yourself for uncomfortable access to villa from the right hand side - too sharp curve especially if you have a bigger SUV. We woulld appreciate more balcony chairs, cause there were only 2 balcony chairs for apartment for 6 people. The A/C was not very functional, it was not able to cool the rooms enough, even though it was in every room. There was no mosquito net in one of the room and the pool is for inflatables more than for swimming.
