Guest Reviews
- Angela (10/5): Amazing location and great design - Friendly hosts and the location is great Nothing
- Stephanie (9/5): -
- Leonardo (8/5): -
- Bettina (9/5): Wir kommen gerne wieder. - Sehr schönes Appartement. Balkon mit Morgensonne. Der Vermieter war gut erreichbar für Wünsche und Fragen. Nichts.
- Edda (10/5): Schöne Ferienwohnung mit fantastischem Ausblick in ruhiger Umgebung. - Wir wurden sehr herzlich von Giancarlo empfangen, der uns mit dem Auto vom Bahnhof abgeholt hat - vielen Dank nochmals dafür!
Die Wohnung ist wunderschön gelegen mit einer tollen Sicht auf den See und die Berge. Der Balkon ist wunderbar, mit Stühlen und einem Tisch für ein gemütliches Frühstück ausgestattet. In 15 Minuten ist man zu Fuss in Ponte Tresa, unterwegs kommt man an Supermärkten vorbei. Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und die Wohnküche gemütlich eingerichtet. Die Betten sind bequem. Wir haben die Ruhe sehr genossen und kommen gerne wieder. Vielen Dank! Im Bad ist die Duschkopfhalterung lose, sodass das Duschen etwas unbequem war. In der Küche hätte wir uns über ein wenig mehr Geschirr gefreut. Aber das ist Jammern auf sehr hohem Niveau.
- Borislav (9/5): -
- Natallia (10/5): Fantastic apartment and super nice and welcoming host. - The garden and the view. A bit difficult to manage the access with small children due to the position on the hill.
- Thomas (10/5): - le chef était parfaitement profesionnel
- Sascha (10/5): -
- Murielle (8/5): Endroit agréable et hôte attentionné - La proximité avec le lac, le balcon avec vue lac et montagne et le calme
- Maria (10/5): Torneremo senz'altro! - Siamo stati bene! L'appartamento pulitissimo, silenzioso e in posizione strategica per visitare le belle località situate a breve distanza. Notevole il panorama che si può ammirare dal balcone. Gentilissimo e molto disponibile il proprietario, Giancarlo.
- Richard (9/5): Agréable, fonctionnel et relaxant - L'accueil, les balcons, la vue,, le fait d'être en dehors des grands acces , la possibilité d'avoir une machine à laver le linge. Les nettoyages tous les 3-4 jours, Il manquait une râpe pour le fromage.
- Federica (10/5): -
- Sharron (9/5): - Giancarlo made us feel very welcome. We felt secure, and liked that we had the kitchen for making light meals and balcony for extra outdoor space. We had a great week boating on the lake with friends and the Minerva residence was excellent value for money with the right mix of amenities and location for our holiday.

- Dũng (9/5): Nice and cozy apartment with a beautiful view - Safe parking, helpful host, beautiful decor, view Wifi was very slow
- Dylan (10/5): - The flat was well equipped and clean.
- Gyula (10/5): Csendes, jól felszerelt szálláshely, minden fontosabb látnivalóhoz közel. - A szállás csendes helyen van, mégis közel a központhoz, üzletekhez. Tiszta, jól felszerelt apartman, a kilátás nagyon szép a teraszról. A tulajdonos és családja mindent megtesz, hogy a vendégek a lehető legjobban érezzék magukat. Nincs ilyen.
- Petra Oruk (10/5): -
- Hans Gianni (10/5): Top-Unterkunft direkt an der Grenze zu Schweiz - Grosse Wohnküche mit Sofa, grosses Schlafzimmer und weiteres Zimmer mit Einzelbett, grosses Bad. Viel Platz für Kleider und Koffer. Kleiner privater Garten mit Sicht auf Ponte Tresa und See. In 6 Minuten ist man zu Fuss mitten im Dorf bei allen Läden. Privater Parkplatz mit automatischem Tor.
Dieses Appartement verfügt über eine sehr gepflegte und moderne Ausstattung und ist wesentlich grösser als die meisten anderen Unterkünfte in Italien.

- Irmgard (9/5): -
- Pedro (9/5): Apartamento en un entorno bonito - Estuvimos una semana en agosto. El entorno es muy bonito, con un arroyo junto a la casa. No sé si todas las habitaciones tienen la misma orientación, pero las vistas desde la ventana eran preciosas, con el monte San Salvatore al fondo. Tiene una cocina muy básica pero suficiente y con una sartén donde no se pega la comida, algo poco común. La habitación y el cuarto de baño eran amplios y la cama muy cómoda, algo muy importante cuando viajas. Giancarlo es un encanto de persona, siempre atento a cualquier cosa que necesitáramos.
- Ellen (9/5): - Guancarlo was uiterst vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Appartement was schoon en ruim. Op loopafstand van het plaatsje en het meer.
- DINA (10/5): -
- Radu (10/5): Amazing - Apartamentul în care am stat a fost extraordinar, a avut toate facilitățile necesare sejurului, iar priveliștea a fost de vis !
- SANDRA (9/5): - Toller Blick und sehr schöne Wohnung! Das Bett hätte ein bisschen breiter und länger sein können.
- Paola (10/5): Soggiorno rilassante e consigliabile - Appartamento molto confortevole di dimensione perfetta per una famiglia di 4 persone; la cucina è ben fornita di quanto necessario per un soggiorno turistico (manca la lavastoviglie ma non è un problema visti gli altri pregi dell'appartamento), in bagno è presente la lavatrice che per noi è stata fondamentale avendo soggiornato nei giorni caldissimi di agosto in cui...a fine giornata gli abiti addosso erano ben poco profumati, in giardino è disponibile una vasca idromassaggio che abbiamo gradito per rinfrescarci e rilassarci nei giorni caldi. Insomma, appartamento super! Il gestore Giancarlo è simpaticissimo e disponibile a fornire sia consigli turistici che aiuti pratici per l'appartamento, un ringraziamento anche a sua mamma che ci ha accolti con la sua gradita gentilezza. Consiglierei al gestore di installare zanzariere alle finestre e porte perché alla sera, con la luce accesa, entrano diversi "ospiti".
- AXEL (9/5): La résidence Minerva est parfaite pour découvrir les lac italiens - nous avons été très bien accueillis par la mère du propriétaire (qui parle parfaitement français, tout comme le propriétaire d’ailleurs). L’appartement était très propre, et fonctionnel. Les serviettes et les draps furent changés pendant notre séjour. La résidence Minerva est idéalement située pour aller visiter le lac Majeur, le lac de Côme et le lac de Lugano (vue sur celui-ci depuis l’appartement). La frontière avec la Suisse (le Tessin) est à moins de 2 km, ce qui est parfait pour découvrir le charmant petit village de Morcote. 3 supermarchés sont proches de la résidence Minerva (on peut y aller à pieds).
- Peta (10/5): Exceptional - Good sized, clean, comfy, dog friendly apartment with amazing views . Nice communal out door sunbathing area with a jacuzzi. Friendly family who gave us a lift on the last day when it was raining.
Supermarkets, bus stops , bars etc are a 10 minute walk down hill. Train station ( in switzerland) is a 25 minute walk
- Hilal (9/5): Superb - The rooms were very clean and spacious. The owner Giancarlo welcomed us and was very helpful with our questions. All the rooms including bathroom has the view of the green mountains and lake Lugano. Very pretty. The traffic towards the location is pretty congested and it took us 1.5 hour to drive 20min distance during rush hours.
No dishwasher
- Emin (10/5): Exceptional - We have stayed 1 week in this great place.. Giancarlo was really a great host. He prepared a great map where you can find everything useful around.
He was very helpful when you had any queries or help.. Definitely planning to stay again. Location was great.
Very close to Lugano and Como..
The apartment was big enough, beds are comfi as well.
Everything was great.... Nothing
- Nicki (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, facilities, view & staff. We had Apt 6 for our 7 day stay. It had great views, especially for the fireworks on July 12th. Lovely lake swims & walks. Good public transport links around the area & to Maggiore , Vassoie. The apartment was well equipped for cooking. Our coffee machine had a leaky seal & was replaced within an hour! Our towels were changed & our rubbish collected during our stay. Good value, especially we we had come from extortionist prices in Suisse! There wete a number of outdoor seating areas around the site. The lovely Giancarlo is a real asset! The couch was uncomfortable to sit on, let alone be a bed. But there were other comfortable chairs to sit on. Our 3rd adult was only 160cm & her feet met the end of bed. Maybe the bed needs replacing with a king single & couch should go.
- Catherine (8/5): We enjoyed our stay here away from the tourist areas. but - The apartment had everything you needed and a nice view from the balcony.
- David (9/5): Superb -
- Leonardo (9/5): Superb -
- Miguel (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing staff, Giancarlo was always very quickly available to help us with our requests. We had room number 2. Great views from balcony to the mountains and lake, sunrise coming into the house first thing in the morning. Very clean, furthermore the garden is very close and there could be more dust , ants or something like that. We had a little problem with ants but Giancarlo was very responsive and in an hour we had it solved. A true gem and garden of Eden 😊 We liked everything. We felt comfortable enough to go strolling down the road even though there was no sidewalk, as long as you are careful and aware and show yourself to drivers
- Hadi (10/5): Amazing Views, Impeccable Cleanliness, and a Great Host - We had a wonderful stay. The view was absolutely stunning, the place was spotlessly clean, and the facilities exceeded all expectations. The host was incredibly kind and helpful throughout.

- Shivani (10/5): Beautiful apartment and fantastic hosts - highly recommend -
- Gábor (10/5): Minerva Residence - First of all, I would like to point out that the host is extremely helpful and extremely polite! The accommodation is calm and quiet, it is easily accessible, it is close to the center, it can be reached on foot within 5-10 minutes. Switzerland is close, the neighboring settlement is already there, you can even take the train from here. The view?!?! ..... well, you have to see it! Thanks for everything Giancarlo! //
- Anna (8/5): Likely to visit again - Lovely place close to the most amazing Lugano lake offering quick access to both Italian and Swiss parts of the lake and many nice places like Morcote.
We received much larger than expected apartment with own garden, which was a lovely surprise. Hot tub was also a great unexpected addition (available for all guests).
Super friendly and helpful staff.
Love Lugano lake as it’s very clean, accessible and not overcrowded with tourists like e.g. Como. You can swim in many places.  It could be cleaner. There are many decorations, which unfortunately gather dust and cobwebs.
Shower cabin was misaligned and leaked badly, if not careful.
Unfortunately on last day, a heavy smoker arrived in the apartment about ours, so we had to put up with constant cigarette smoke and being overlooked from a balcony. Luckily we only had to tolerate it for one day, otherwise we would have struggled as non-smokers.
- Nico (10/5): Excellency - Eerything was impeccable and the big pkus was it has a Jacuzzi. The Owner is super friendly and helpful and you can reach him at anytime. nothing
- Randy (9/5): Superb - Great hospitality of the owners, rooms designed well, close to the center, markets and restaurants are very close.
Beautiful garden.
- Alessandro (5/5): Passable - The property has a secure car park. It also provides self check out. The room was not properly cleaned when we got it and we had to ask to have a deeper clean.
The facility is nice but in need of maintenance and a bit of renovation.
- Johnny (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was good
good location clean the view was stunning
And the owner was very helpful i give the place 10/10 lovely 🌹 Pet hair on the ground in the apartment
- Reut (10/5): The Best Location and Wonderful and very clean residence - A place to come Back again❤️ - Beautiful Place
Location near the Garda Lago by foot
Wonderful Pool and sauna
Plenty of Parking place for cars
So many way and sentinels to walk around
Great Italian restaurants and Gelato all around 😊❤️ Nothing - it is a wonderful place for vacation!!
- Hitomi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aleksandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Feicuimitan (8/5): Very good - Good price-quality ratio and good location to reach Lago Maggiore and Lugano. Shops and restaurants are nearby, within walking distance if you don't mind the climb back up. The decoration is tasteful and interesting with lots of fun details, there are enough hooks to hang our coats, and lots of drawers to place our clothing and personal items. Lighting is cozy and beds comfortable. The kitchenette is equipped with the basic cooking utensils. There is a washer and hair dryer and more than enough towels in the bathroom. Wifi is reliable and fast. The host is extremely accommodating and provided great tips for the area. There is no option to use Netflix on the TV provided (or perhaps it was not obvious to me). And the access to the building is not step-free - there is a short flight of stairs before the entrance (manageable without too much luggage). The electric kettle looks a little old with stains so I didn't dare to use it.
- Shmuel (8/5): Very good -
- Eamonn (10/5): Very pleasant stay and good value for money. - Warm welcome . Very clean and comfortable. Very pleasant garden and sit out area. Nothing
- Setor (9/5): Good accommodation for stay. A car is useful - Giancarlo was very helpful and responsive. We ended up with a very late check in (flight was delayed) and Giancarlo accommodated this and late check out. Provided tips / area info and provided clean sheets / towels over our stay. Location had a great view and parking available. A car is useful as property is up a hill. No major issues / concerns with the property.
- Chris (10/5): Spot on for a little break at Lake Laguna - Location was great, very friendly and helpful host. Gave good tips on where to eat.
- Manfredi (10/5): Exceptional - All Nothing
- Manfredi (10/5): Minerva Residence is a win - Owners' availability. The fishy wallpaper in the sleeping room, the unicorns watching over the living, general cleanliness, linen availability, sight from the balcon, proximity to hot spots and quietness. Windows framework is perfect and brand new, but they don't tilt, making night ventilation difficult.
- Waleed (6/5): Pleasant - Giancarlo and his mother were very nice and kind, and the way they were greeted us beautifully. The location is good. Close to Lugano, about 24 minutes, and Como, about an hour.
- Vadim (10/5): Exceptional -
- M&R (10/5): - Schön eingerichtetes Apartment, ruhig, zentral, gute Aussicht, netter Empfang. Gartensitzplatz und Parkplatu
- Patrizio (10/5): - Très bon accueil beau studio propre facile d`accès.Nous avons passer un bon séjour.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nette Pension in der Nähe vom Markt - Super für ein Weekend in Ponte Tresa. Etwas ringhörig und das Hundegebell von rundherum ist etwas nervig.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Not very functional for long stays - Even if the property is quite new and in good condition, the room did not offer any closet space, except for the two bedsides.
The room also lacked air conditioning and cleaning services.
- Zeno (10/5): Hübsche Pension mit schöner Aussicht - Nur für eine Nacht dort, darum schwierig eine abschliessende Beurteilung abgeben zu können. Der Gesamteindruck war aber sehr positiv. Verhältnis zwischen Preis und Leistung absolut okay.
