About this property

La Piazza Menaggio, Menaggio, Italy

A stylish newly refurbished apartment right in the heart of Menaggio. The apartment is located in the main Piazza of Menaggio, making it an ideal base to explore all the towns & villages around Lake Como. There is no need for a car as the ferry dock is only 800m away but if you do have one, then there is a private garage parking with the apartment.

From the entrance door, you step directly out onto the Piazza from where you can stroll along the pretty lakeside promenade or relax at a cafe with your cappucino! In the town, you can find a number of delicious Italian restaurants, fresh home made ice cream shops, small boutiques, and a couple of supermarkets. The public \'Lido di Menaggio\' (public swimming pool) with lakeside sandy beach is just five minutes walk from the apartment.

This lovely penthouse apartment is arranged over two floors with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The kitchen is fully fitted, perfect for a self-catering holiday stay. In the living area, the entertainment includes a flat screen satellite TV and a stereo CD player. No need to worry about climbing stairs, there is a spacious elevator up to the penthouse!

About the Area:
Lake Como (Lago di Como) is one of the famous Italian Lake destinations, just half an hour from noisy, bustling Milan, in the north of Italy. Lake Como is long (50km), slender and extremely deep. The southern end forks into two long \'legs\', with the picturesque town of Bellagio situated on the promontory between them. Like the other Italian Lakes, Lake Como has been popular as a resort since the days of the Roman Empire. For centuries visitors have admired the blue lake waters and relaxed in luxurious villas in the wooded lakeside slopes above. Today, most of the scenic towns around the shores of Lake Como are popular for the wide variety of sports the lake area has to offer: wind surfing, swimming, water skiing, swimming and hand gliding.

Upstairs loft is just that - a loft with slanted beams. More suitable for children or shorter adults. Place was very nice, clean and great location. They even provided a bottle of wine and snacks upon our arrival. A very nice touch! Highly recommend this location!

Another great stay
This was our 2nd year staying at La Piazza Menaggio. It was delightful and even better this year. The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive as before. The location is perfect right above the square. The apartment is spacious and more than adequately equipped. We hope to return many times in the future.

The apartment is awesome. Very clean, fully stocked kitchen, Water pressure was great for showers!!! The location is perfect. The parking garage is very convenient. Having an elevator was a bonus. The pictures don't do it justice. I'd go back again tomorrow.

Great Stay in nice apartment
Apartment exceeded expectations. It’s better than the pictures. Upstairs rooms were a little pokey with low head room due to sloping roof and were quite hot. You couldn’t leave skylight windows open at night in case of rain. Otherwise, it was well equipped and we had a really good time there.

La Piazza Menaggio
I would first like to express my thanks for the assistance we received during our stay. All the staff were polite, enthusiastic, and helpful.Booking was relatively easy. The pre-arrival instructions were particularly helpful. I greatly appreciated the inclusion of photos (e.g., your office; the entry to the building where the apartment was; the approach to the garage).The property was particularly well located for a visitor to Menaggio. The apartment was quite spacious, and certainly adequate for our requirements. I found the village of Menaggio quite attractive and enjoyable. It has a wonderful, lake-side location, enhanced by the snow-capped moutains towering above it. I liked sitting in the main square and watching the locals; and walking through the narrow, sometimes dark, village streets. Probably the highlight for us was finding our way to the Chiesetta, perched on a high spur just south of the village. We enjoyed its peacefulness, and the spectacular views to the village and the lake. We also very much enjoyed the agriturismo restaurant recommended by Andrea, a few minutes' drive up into the hills behind Menaggio. We also had a lovely drive to Lake Lugano. It was a clear winter's day, and the reflection of snow capped mountains and village buildings on the silver water of the lake was spectacular. As you can tell, we very much enjoyed our time in Menaggio.

Lake Como getaway
We ended our 10 day vacation in Italy with a relaxing 2 day stay in Menaggio. The apartment is located conveniently in the square with restaurants and shops steps away. We were delighted to find an elevator to our apartment. The apartment is well appointed with all amenities. The welcome gift was a nice touch. There are 3 bedrooms, one on the main floor. The remaining 2 bedrooms and bath is located on the second floor accessed by a narrow winding staircase. We found the apartment to be cozy, clean and conveniently located.

La Piazza Menaggio
September 2017 So sorry for the lapse in time for my reply. We absolutely loved the apartment and would recommend it to anyone. It had everything required for our week. The coffee shop just opposite in the piazza was amazing. All the restaurants in the small alleys were also very good. It was a busy time for us so I can't remember any names. The supermarket was only walking distance too and was completely amazing for all food, wine and other essential requirements. The close proximity to the ferry was perfect. We can only say positive comments about the apartment, the town of Menaggio and your staff. Theresa, USA

The apartment was in a great location and very nice and quiet with good views from most rooms. We were delighted to see the welcome gift. We were really pleased that there was a lift to the apartment We had a great welcome at the office in Menaggio with lots of helpful suggestions. We were not in Menaggio for long but really enjoyed our visit to Varenna which was a delightful town.

La Piazza Menaggio
We had a wonderful time at Bellavista Grande. It Is a lovely setting with astonishing views and a wonderful outdoor space. The property was very easy to find if you are walking from town or the ferry – a little more challenging in the car. The office team was superb! We thank you for the lovely welcome food and wine we received upon arrival! We loved the area so much it is difficult to pick a favorite. It is breathtakingly beautiful! We packed a lot into 3 days and wish we could have stayed longer. We enjoyed the main piazza in Menaggio, and the bread and meat markets that were close by. Dinner outside at Il Ristorante di Paolo was fabulous, as were cocktails at the Hotel du Lac outside bar. The ferry was very easy to catch – just a short walk from the property and it ran on time. We loved Varenna and the hike to the Castello Di Vezio, as well as the climb up the castle tower. The shops in Bellaggio were much fun, and the walk through Lenno and to Villa Balbianella was gorgeous.

LA Piazza certainly lived up to our expectations and was exactly as displayed on the web site. Menaggio is a perfect location for touring in the Lake Como region and the ferry terminal is conveniently located to the appartment. The apartment was well appointed and clean. The welcome pack (including champagne) was great as was the welcome provided at the office. Our thanks to all the staff at Happy Holiday Homes and we will certainly recommend this property.

First off I will say the location of the apartment could not be beat and the office was a tremendous help especially Viviana she was the best very very helpful and informative ,we absolutely loved Menaggio and after visiting the towns of bellaggio and Varrenna which were awesome as well ,we knew we had picked the best place with Menaggio ,less touristy great food and nice people we especially loved pizzeria Lugano good service very nice people and great food at reasonable prices ,we didn't care for our tour for the bernina express ,too much time on the bus and not enough on the train and I don't believe anyone on the tour liked the town of St Moritz ,as for the apartment itself it was quite sufficient for our needs although I would recommend someone meet you at the apartment initially just to go over a few simple things that would make check in a little less stressful ,like initially what door to go in and how to operate the keys although we figured it out it was quite stressful at first also how to operate a AC radio washing machine coffee maker and I would recommend if possible a dryer as the towel situation was scarce other than that I would highly recommend the apartment and certainly Menaggio it was a wonderful vacation thank you very much!

We enjoyed the location of Le Piazza Menaggio and the ferry service to Bellagio and boat rental. The parking was fine and all restaurants were good. My teenage boys especially had a great time after meeting Italian friends and going to clubs at night. We really enjoyed Menaggio and Lake Como and plan to return in the future.

La Piazza Menaggio
We rented La Piazza Menaggio from May 20-24 and had an absolutely wonderful experience. The apartment is in a perfect location for those without a car as it was an easy walk from the ferry to the rental office and then to the apartment. We were were always greeted by staff with warm enthusiasm. The apartment is on the third floor of a very quiet building and the elevator was very quick and convenient. The apartment furnishings were very nice with stunning views from the master bedroom and the living room windows. We could see the river, mountains – even the Alps! We picked up some local meats, breads, cheeses and wine one evening and made a lovely dinner enjoyed by candlelight. The beds were comfortable and the two bathrooms a luxury. Being on one of the squares made it easy to pop out in the morning for a croissant & cappuccino or we could have breakfast at home. Walking anywhere in the village was easy with outstanding views of the lake and mountains. We purchased an all-day boat ticket at the ferry office one day and visited Verenna, Bellagio, and Tremezzo – a perfect day. We explored Menaggio including a walking tour up to Loveno where we had a delicious lunch at the Hotel Royal. Mr. Colombo visited our table and even shared his home made lemon chutney with us! What a view from the upper hills of Menaggio! I would advise visitors to be sure to stop in at the tourist information center as they have great information about activities in the area!! The local restaurants and bars were all very tasty and staff always friendly and helpful. We especially enjoyed some wine tasting at Fusi & Sfusi where we filled up plastic liters of wine now and then at great prices – to take back to the apartment. We especially liked Osteria il Pozzo for dinner one evening. Actually, we did not have a bad dining experience anywhere we went. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone who is visiting Lake Como. We thought of the villages in this area, Menaggio was the very best! It offers lots to do, just enough shopping but is not overwhelming at all. Thanks to the staff for such good, friendly service – we are already recommending you and this property to others. Feel free to use whatever you would like – first names only please.

La Piazza Menaggio
Thank you for your message. We had a lovely holiday thank you – the office staff were very helpful on arrival and the apartment was perfectly located for what we wanted. I am attaching one photo – which is of the kids rolling down one of the hills at the Villa Melzi in Belaggio. They had a brilliant time! Our favorite trips were the walk around the suburbs of Bellagio that we got from tourist information, the walk around the old parts of Menaggio with the children's’ trail - again from tourist information, and climbing up to the castle at Varenna. We particularly love the little bakery in Menaggio that sells focaccia breads with peppers or tomatoes sliced on top – perfect for picnics. I hope we will come back to the apartment again as it was exactly where we wanted to be – and remarkably quiet for being so central. Fingers crossed!

La Piazza Menaggio
Here are our thoughts on La Piazza Menaggio, which we rented from you for one week: We located the property quite easily, and it was exactly as represented on your website. Everything was clean, and the appliances worked perfectly. Your team was most helpful in every way. We do have one suggestion for improvement, and that is to make sure all the keys work easily in the locks. The lock to the downstairs (outside) door was very difficult to open, and one set of our keys was also difficult to use in opening the front door of the residence. Our favorite restaurants included Ristorante di Paolo and La Baita for dinners, and a smaller restaurant (La Trattoria di Nogara) that offered free wifi along with very nice food and good service. If we return to Lake Como, we will most certainly ask for your help in locating a residence. Thank you for your help.

La Piazza Menaggio
We had such a FANTASTIC time staying in la Piazza Menaggio! The holiday apartment was located in a really charming period building in one of Menaggio's main lakefront piazzas. We had a great sense of lake life staying here; with the cafes, shops, lakefront and restaurants all on our doostep! We loved just sitting in the main piazza with a cappuccino in the mornings to people spot and enjoy the sunshine. The apartment was beautifully furnished and we felt so comfortable and at home there. All the mods cons were provided and the fully-equipped kitchen was quite simply a joy to cook in! San Paolo..and Red Bay were both lovely restaurants and the local pizzerias were also very good. The Lido in the town was great for daytime relaxing and in the evenings a few times a week it really became a fun place to go to in the evenings and enjoy a cocktail on the lakefront terrace there. The Happy holiday homes team in Menaggio were so good to us..from the welcome hamper, babysitting and tourist advice; nothing was too much trouble for them! I would really recommend Menaggio if you are thinking of coming to the lake. You can reach all the main attractions and leisure activities from here by bus and ferry! Thanks for a fantastic time :)
