We spent an incredible week in Mattia’s apartment. The property is stylish, but comfortable with everything you might need for a short or long stay.
The host went out of... read more their way to enhance our stay. The welcome hamper is far beyond anything I’ve had before at an Airbnb, with delicious local produce.
My wife got an infected insect bite, and the next morning Mattia’s parents arrived with repellent, cream for the bite….and a box of pastries!!
The views from all the windows and the relaxing garden are spectacular.
Brienno itself is small with no shop, but the pizza restaurant, small bar and large terrace bar are all excellent and authentic.
It’s a shame the Brienno ferry stop is no longer running, but the buses are semi-regular if you don’t have a car.
We have already recommended this place to friends and would definitely use again if returning to beautiful Como

  A fantastic property in a beautiful, quiet section of Lake Como! Mattia was a great host who accommodated my changing travel plans. His property is on the top... read more floor so it offers stunning views of the surrounding area, and is exactly as depicted on the website. It does take a good bit of stairs to get up there, so be cautious if you have a lot of bags or are traveling with some one with limited mobility. Parking can be a little bit of a challenge depending on the day, but if you don't mind walking 5 minutes there is something always available. It's about a 30 minute drive to Como, and has multiple ferry stops within 10 minutes, so exploring Lake Como is fairly convenient as well. All in all a beautiful property that I would most certainly go back to!

  Mattia’s home is simply amazing! He left no stone unturned when it came to comfort and hospitality. The views are stunning and the home feels like an Italian paradise. There... read more are steep stairs but, even with twin toddlers, we managed just fine. Mattia helped us with our bags when we arrived, he had a breakfast spread waiting for us to indulge in, essentials were also included in the fridge and pantry and two portacots and high chairs were all set up. We have stayed in many airbnbs and hotels over the years and Mattia’s home is by far the standout. We hope to come back one day, not only because of the great apartment, but Mattias attention to detail made everything so easy for us.

  Our stay was amazing from start to finish! Mattia was so responsive on text that check in was so smooth and easy. We arrived and were shown the garage for... read more parking and then were taken on a tour of the apartment. It was as beautiful as it looks in the pictures, but what really made this a stand out stay was how accommodating and generous Mattia and his family had been. They had left us milk, a few things to put a lovely lunch together, breads, a bottle of wine, things for breakfast, and a home made tart! They are the best air bnb hosts I have ever had - friendly, informative and accommodating. Brienno itself was a beautiful and authentic small town, with loads of swimming places, an amazing pizza restaurant and a fab terraced bar by the water. Close enough to the big towns to be convenient but small enough to be away from crowds and really feel immersed in the Italian experience. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

  Comfortable and beautiful home with thoughtful touches throughout. Splendid gifts of wonderful fresh fruit, pasta, dessert, and more from this gracious and extremely kind host, and his charming father, ... read more far exceeded any expectations. Nothing was overlooked. Beautiful views from the windows, quiet and relaxing. Hiked the greenway, about 12 miles round trip, one of my favorite walks ever. Great day renting a boat and exploring the lake. Highly recommend.

  This home was perfect for us after spending the 2 1/2 weeks before, rushing around through over-crowded Italian towns. The home was quiet, peaceful, comfortable and relaxing with absolutely stunning... read more views of Lago di Como. Brienno is a quiet & beautiful little town, which has a wonderful pizzeria and a bar open when it’s off season.
Mattia was passionate about his family’s home and his paese. He provides us with a fresh cheeses, meats, eggs, pasta and fruits from local markets, so that we didn’t arrive empty handed. Little things like that is what makes this home so memorable. Ci vediamo presto, Mattia.

  We hadden een heerlijk verblijf in Brienno en voelden ons meteen welkom door alles wat voorzien was in de bnb! Heel netjes en gezellig ingericht, er is aan alles gedacht.... read more Hopelijk komen we hier nog eens terug om te genieten van het Comomeer!

  A really nice place to stay in Lake Como with beautiful lake view and private yard. We arrived late than we expected due to traffic. Mattia and his dad were... read more very responsive and friendly, even “took” a street parking spot prior to us arrival for us unloading the luggage more conveniently and also helped us bring the luggages to the apt, which was such a huge help!!! The place was beyond our expectations with everything we needed. Not to mention how cute those bunny decorations are! We had a great time staying at this place. Highly recommended!

  Amazing apartment! Very close to main attractions in Cernobbio & Como. Super close to the ferry.
Great host who is very responsive!
