Lieu idéal pour rayonner autour du lac. Le logement est très cosy, extrêmement bien équipé et tout à fait confirme à sa description. La vie sur le lac de la... read more chambre est superbe ainsi que du petit jardin. Nos hôtes nous avaient même laissé des cadeaux d’accueil et de quoi réaliser un repas. Nous avons avions été très touchés par leur prévenance. Sans oublier une place pour se garer qui fut tres appréciable.

  Wow! Anyone considering managing or owning an Airbnb should stay here. In fact Airbnb should offer clinics using this property and this host family to demonstrate how well it can... read more (and should) be done. They have thought of literally EVERYTHING that it takes to make a stay exceptional. We didn’t want to leave!

While we didn’t have the pleasure of meeting Mattia, his father Pierluigi was easily one of the nicest & most helpful hosts I’ve ever met. To say we will be back isn’t just talk…While Brienno is a small & quiet village, we can be sure there’s a place (this place) to call home next year while on Como.

  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!

  Everything was exceptional

  Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt. Besonders toll war, dass wir am ersten Abend nicht nochmal in den Supermarkt mussten, da Mattia für den ersten Abend und das Frühstück eingekauft hat.... read more Sooo entspannend! Vielen lieben Dank dafür!
Die Wohnung entspricht zu 100% der Beschreibung und der Ausblick auf den See ist toll. Wunderbar auch, dass der Verkehr um den Ort mit einem Tunnel herum gelenkt wird. So ist es ganz ruhig im Ort.
Alles zum Weiterempfehlen!!! Mattia und Familie machen einen hervorragenden Job!

  Loved this place. A few steps to get to it which wasn't a big deal for us. Parking wasn't ideal but at least we had a guaranteed spot, but parking... read more is often difficult in some Italian towns. The village is lovely. Very, very quiet so you'll need to be prepared to use your car to get to restaurants as there's a lively pizza place within 100 yards and that's it except for bar on the lake. The welcome basket was amazing. Gracious, responsive service especially helping with some restaurant reservations. Lots of space to relax. Nice outdoor garden although we didn't use it much. If you want to be able to walk to loads of restaurants this is not the village to stay in, but if you want a quieter place for touring around then you can't go wrong.

  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!

  The apartment was amazing. After realizing that the address MUST include the town (there are multiple of their address number/street in different towns around the lake), we were kindly greeted... read more by Mattias mom and dad. The garage parking was excellent. The steps to the apartment are a bit brutal but manageable with handrails all the way up. The view is so so so worth it. Mattias family is clearly proud of the apartment and they should be. They were probably the most hospitable airbnb hosts I’ve ever had in my 8+ years of airbnbing. It’s perfect for a family. They had a high chair for my daughter and food, snacks, everything we needed. The water is drinkable, showers great, robes were so nice, and plenty of towels and extra blankets! We felt right at home and it made the stay so much better. The welcome book was super helpful in picking activities and restaurants. Thank you again!

  Fantastic stay at Mattia's apartment! The description matched the reality when we turned up - very clean, stylish and comfortable, and great location - easy to get around Como without... read more staying at the crowded segments. Mattia and his father were very helpful with the check-in process and made us feel very comfortable. We had no complaints or inconveniences throughout our stay. Highly recommended for anyone looking to stay in Como, especially for the unbeatable view of the lake from your own front porch. Not to forget the generous portions of food that the hosts had provided prior to check-in!

Thanks, Mattia and Pierluigi!

  A superb apartment. Incredible views over Lake Como. Everything in the apartment was top notch and there was even free food provided for when we checked in. It is not... read more the most easily accessible property due to steps, but this did not take anything away from a great holiday in a stunning location. We hope to return one day.
