As part of the estate of Villa d’Este, guests at this vacation rental in Lake Como have full access to the resort facilities, including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spa facilities, a gym, and several restaurants and bars. Located on the shores of Lake Como, one of the most romantic settings in the world, Villa d’Este is surrounded by 25 acres of enchanting park with centennial trees, statues, and colorful flowers. Built in 1568 as the summer residence of Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio, it was transformed into a luxury hotel in 1873 and quickly became a favorite destination for the European aristocracy.

​

One of the closest villages to the villa is Cernobbio. Cernobbio is a picturesque lakefront town situated at the foot of the imposing Monte Bisbino. The town is known for its charming streets lined with colorful houses, local artisan shops, and cafes serving delicious Italian cuisine. The area is an excellent base for exploring the surrounding region and attractions such as the iconic Villa d'Este, a luxurious 16th-century villa with beautifully manicured gardens and fountains. Visitors can also take a cable car up to the peak of Monte Bisbino for panoramic views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.

​

Villa Garrovo, formerly known as “Chalet Suisse”, soon became the private villa all the VIPs had to visit. After a complete re-installation and renovation in 2015, it is once again one of the most exclusive destinations in Lake Como.
