If your looking for a quiet picturesque town in Lake Como. This is the place. Waken by sunshine and church bells each morning. Just a dream come true. Everything you... read more need and more was provided for us. Mattia a perfect host. We can’t wait to return!

  We loved our stay in Brienno at Mattia’s home. Pierluigi welcomed us at our car, helped us with our luggage up the stairs and filled us with wonderful information about... read more his childhood home and the surrounding area. The home is beautifully decorated and has the most magnificent views from the terrace and each room of the home. We enjoyed exploring the tunnels in Brienno and other towns around the lake. We had the best pizza at Bri’en which was recommended to us. We had a drink one night and we were able to wave to our girls on the terrace at the house ; ). Lovely place to stay. We felt very safe and very welcome. Thank you!

  Very cute apartment 🙂 Communication was very easy, so it was a very nice stay in all aspects!

  Great place and great host.

  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!!

  Our stay at Mattia’s place was absolutely wonderful! Not only is the place beautiful and clean, Mattia treated us with immense kindness. He stocked the house with snacks and fresh... read more foods/fruits and even helped us get to a boat excursion reservation when we first checked in and didn’t know how to navigate there (he literally drove us himself!). He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. This home away from home was a quiet slice of heaven for us in Lake Como. I highly recommend booking your stay here!

  Wir waren mit Familie, Hund und Enkelin 10 Tage in der schönen Wohnung von Mattia.
Gut ausgestatte Wohnung inklusive der Küche. Erste Lebensmittel bereits vorhanden und wir brauchten nicht... read more gleich einzukaufen. Vielen Dank dafür!
Mattia hat uns beim Gepäck geholfen um es die Treppenstufen hoch zu tragen.
Trotz des leider schlechten Wetters haben wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt und beabsichtigen wieder zu kommen!

  Amazing experience staying at this one of a kind property! The views were out of this world (from every window!) and the apartment has been thoughtfully renovated- original features mixed... read more with modern amenities. Mattia and his parents are very thoughtful and kind, providing guests with everything they could possibly need. The village is quiet, which was just what we were looking for with our 5 month old baby. The garden terrace is beautiful and private with stunning views of the lake. It was great to come home after visiting the busy towns like Bellagio to relax in the garden watching the lake. Private parking was available and there is a famous pizzeria a 1 minute stroll away. If you are looking for a peaceful and private stay with incredible views then is the place to book!

  This place is such a gem! Super cozy and very clean. The host went above and beyond to make our visit extra special! The view is amazing! It’s decorated so... read more beautifully! We can’t wait to visit again!

  Mattia was an extremely gracious host and there were so many thoughtful touches (fresh homemade pasta and bolognese, fruit and local foods presented upon arrival and fresh flowers in every... read more room). The views from every room were spectacular! Beds and furniture were extremely comfortable and beautifully curated in each room. The town is quaint and off the main tourist track.

Mattia was very responsive to all of our questions and messages.

Two very small things I would clarify for anyone booking this space.

1. There were 75-85 cobblestone steps to get to the apartment, a great workout, but could be difficult to access for some guests. (But everywhere on Lake Como has tons of steps)
2. While parking is free, it is on street public parking, so you are not guaranteed nearby parking, especially when the restaurant next door is open.

Overall, I would recommend this space to anyone, it was a perfect space to enjoy the views and culture!
