We had an exceptional three nights stay as a group of three. Host's attention to detail was impeccable and all the products made available to us were of top quality.... read more The kitchen was just perfect for cooking and instead of going out we ended up making five meals, saying that nothing was amiss is an understatement. This was the best AirBnB by far we have ever stayed, host's responsiveness, scenery, fresh flower decorations, easy access to local produce and privacy of the apartment itself were astonishing. Cherry on the top was that our only concern about parking was countered by our host kindly providing access to the easy (by Italian standards) garage just downstairs. Thank you!

  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

  Top Haus. Top Aussicht. Alles da, um sich sofort zu Hause zu fühlen. Der Urlaub konnte sofort starten.

  Amazing! Mattia and his family made my family and I (5 guest) feel welcomed and at home. Upon arrival Mattias father met us at the time of check-in. He saved... read more us a parking spot and showed us around the home. We were also welcomed with home made pasta, fruit, and goodies. The views from the every room in the home are breathtaking. Keep in mind there are stairs to get to the home but it's absolutely worth it. I would definitely come back. Thank you Mattia!

  The apartment was very clean and spacious. The location was perfect and beautiful views of the lake from the main rooms and bedrooms.
Very gracious host! ... read more All amenities were provided along with a great welcome food and snack package.
Easy communication with the host family and they even made reservations to the local pizza place for us per our request.

  Diese Unterkunft ist ein wahres Juwel am Comer See: Eine super Lage, ein wunderschöner Garten mit Blick über den See, die Wohnung liebevoll eingerichtet und mit allem ausgestattet, was man... read more in einer Ferienwohnung benötigt. Mattia hat uns ein sehr herzliches Willkommen bereitet und war bei Fragen jederzeit erreichbar - einfach ein super Gastgeber!

  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!

  Mattia is an amazing host and his apartment is stunning. He is thoughtful and attentive to every detail. He started our visit by saving a parking spot for us before... read more welcoming us to his lovely apartment. There are lake views from every window. It’s bright, clean, and spacious and has a beautiful yard with a lake view. Brienno is a cute town that feels very authentic and non- touristy. There is only one restaurant and no market in town other than a van that comes in the mornings (but not on Sundays). That said, Mattia had quite a bit of food available in the apartment including homemade jams and pasta sauces. There was enough for our family to eat in for most meals. If you plan to visit other towns by ferry, it’s important to note that the ferry only stops in Brienno a few times a day. You can drive to another town nearby to catch it, but parking can be a challenge (both for the ferry and when you return to Brienno). We loved our stay at Mattie’s place and found it quite relaxing and beautiful.

  Einfach Super! Die Wohnung ist super schön und es gibt einfach alles was man benötigt. Der Garten ist direkt an die Wohnung angebunden und bietet einen grandiosen Blick über den... read more Comer See. Das Apartment liegt im kleinen Ort Brienno von dort aus kommt man mit dem Auto innerhalb von 20 Minuten nach Como und ist damit perfekt gelegen.
Die Kommunikation mit Mattia lief einwandfrei und der check-in war persönlich mit Mattias Vater. Obwohl wir sehr spät ankamen wurden wir sehr herzlich begrüßt. In der Wohnung hat uns sogar essen für die ersten Tage erwartet. Wir kommen gerne jederzeit wieder.

  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.
