Mattia’s place was amazing. The decor was beautiful and the view spectacular! The beds were super comfortable and the towels plush! Everything was super clean. Mattia left... read more us with pasta, fruit, tart, coffee, bread etc so it was a lovely welcome. The town is charming. Yes the steps were tough but worth the effort. Parking was difficult but we did manage to find a space every night! Thank you for an amazing stay at your place!

  we visited Dipinto Sul Lago, hosted by Mattia ..... from 22 - 25 July 2024.
This is a traditional modern Italian appartment, that is very nice and clean. Everything worked... read more seemlessly from start to end. All pre-information was flawless, and was done orally by Mattia's father Pierluigi, who also helped us to carry up our luggage & kept a parking space for 1 of our cars (we were 2 families).
The family had bought us some food and put in the refrigerator + we got sparkling wine & Pierluigis mother had baked us a cake and left so many other nice things.
The house is equipted with all amenities, and even cold water tap in the kitchen, even with sparkling water if you want.
The only downside we found was the stairs leading to the apartment - it is 81 steps, so if you're not in good condition, this is not for you - we actually enjoyed the excercise 🙂

  Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in Mattias Ferienwohnung. Vielen Dank dafür!!

Die Wohnung hat eine gute Größe für uns vier Erwachsene, ein Kleinkind und einen Hund. Die beiden Badezimmer... read more waren sehr praktisch. Es gibt eine Galerie, die für kleine Kinder nicht sicher ist, aber das war kein Problem, denn unser Kind blieb einfach unten oder amüsierte sich in dem schönen kleinen Garten.

Für unseren Hund war die Wohnung auch perfekt, denn es gab den Garten und vor allem war die Wohnung sehr ruhig - die Fenser sind sehr geräuschundurchlässig - die Wände dick, sodass unser Hund auch nie gebellt hat.

Die Betten sind gut und es gibt eine umfangreiche Ausstattung, sodass es uns an nichts gefehlt hat. Zu Begrüßung gab es eine Menge Essen, was unsere Ankunft nach einer längeren Anreise überaus angenehm und entspannt gemacht hat.

Die Umgebung ist toll. Man kann ab der Wohnung schöne Spaziergänge machen oder zu Ausflügen aufbrechen. Wunderbar war der Aufenthalt udn wir kommen gern wieder!

  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

  I can't recommend Mattia's lovely home enough! The setting and atmosphere is exceptional and you can tell so much care is put into making sure guests have an unforgettable experience.... read more />
When we arrived, Mattia had saved us a parking spot near the entrance so unloading our bags was a breeze. He took time to get us familiar with the apartment and no detail was overlooked. From fresh fruits and vegetables, jam prepared by his father and homemade bolognese from his mom you really feel like you're at home.

10/10 will return again to visit this very special place!

  Nous avons passé un super séjour dans ce magnifique appartement, les marches à monter valent largement la vue !
Merci pour les cadeaux, la communication, vos guides et votre aide... read more !
Je recommande ce logement les yeux fermés

  If you are looking at this place - book it right now!!! We could not say enough glowing things about this stay and this family. We stayed here for the... read more week prior to our wedding and words could not describe our gratitude for the way they went above and beyond to make this a magical experience for us!

Regarding the stay: The breakfast they include is marvelous and they went above and beyond to even provide a fresh breakfast on the morning of our wedding! The home itself is a bit hard to reach (a lot of steps uphill, so not for the faint of heart), but gosh is it worth it! The views are amazing in this essentially 360-view home; like, really - breathtaking to watch the sun rise and set. We found the bell-tower quite charming and was not disruptive at all with the windows closed. We were never short on any food, drink, amenity, or space. They think of literally everything - even down to items for children if you have any. The space is comfortable, the AC is great, and everywhere was very clean. The home itself is thoughtfully and beautifully decorated. Truly one of the best Airbnb experiences of anyone who came to our wedding, and one of our very favorites ever! Although the historic town of Brienno itself does not have too much to offer, it's located very ideally on the lake and not far from any major town or ferry port! Furthermore, Mattia's family provided us with great spots both near and far for food! This stay is perfection as far as one can go for Airbnbs on the lake!

Regarding the hosts: We could write a novel on our gratitude towards Mattia and his parents. To our complete surprise, Mattia's family decorated the entire home since they heard we were staying there for our wedding! Not only that, Marinella hand-painted and embroidered special items for us and Pierluigi literally hammered a nail into a beam in the home just so my wedding dress could hang fully!! They even left fresh food for an easy, authentic Italian dinner for our first night (which of course lasted much longer than that)! Their thoughtfulness even extended to securing us a coveted dinner reservation and arranging for a private taxi for us to get there. Unfortunately, during our time on the lake and our wedding, we encountered a taxi strike and there were no cars to rent in all of Como. And as if their kindness was not already overwhelming enough - Mattia's family literally rented their own car to us just so our stay wouldn't be ruined (And it quite literally would have been ruined without it)!

Although we can't guarantee you will experience this exact time with them that we did, we know that this is all a testament to their character. They are thoughtful, detail-oriented, attentive, and kind. This stay is beautiful, well-priced, and actually worth the inevitable hike up stairs you will encounter on the lake. We will forever remember this amazing stay and family!

  Absolutely stunning! Such a warm welcome. The apartment is amazing and the views are spectacular! This is a truly beautiful place. We have had an exceptional stay in Brienno.... read more Thank you so much Mattia, Pierluigi and Marinella for your advice and recommendations, for attention to details: fresh flowers, embroidered sheets, wedgewood plates and of course for the thoughtfulness of fruits, bread, biscuits, ham, cheese, pasta and the tart.
Renting a boat from Turati in Argegno was a great idea!
We will surely come back again!

  Nous avons tout simplement adoré notre séjour chez Mattia! Le logement est impeccablement tenu, d’une propreté irréprochable. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié toutes les attentions et les délicieuses friandises!! Brienno est... read more un village au charme authentique, un peu en dehors des sentiers battus ou du tourisme de masse. Il fait bon y flâner! Et que dire des vues magnifiques qui s’ouvrent sur le lac de la fenêtre des chambres! Si vous hésitez encore, n’attendez plus une seule seconde!! Vous ne regretterez pas!

  This is a lovely apartment with a stunning view, and a fantastic host. Mattia was always very fast to respond, friendly, and super helpful. We were greeted down at the... read more street upon arrival and shown exactly where to park and how to find the apartment. They even welcomed us with food items, a bottle of wine, and a bunch of sweet treats, which we appreciated so much after a long travel day. We loved the apartment and it was enough room for a family of five. And the kitchen had everything we needed to make several meals. And the patio/garden overlooking the lake was stunning.
