Tremezzina, Italy skyline: the 26 most iconic buildings and best views in Tremezzina

Nice museum with several exhibits. Also has gorgeous views of lake como. There is also a restaurant to grab some lunch. It was not crowded when we visited also there was no line to buy tickets. Worthwhile visiting the villa.

An absolute architectural, botanical and historical marvel of the last 500 years. The grounds of the villa are absolutely gorgeous - fountains sculptures, and perfectly manicured floral heaven. The garden is truly remarkable with how much variety of plants there are and also the way it's been maintained. For the building itself, nothing short of extraordinary - the design and architecture is impressive. There is so much history and craftsmanship behind this place.

Inside and out Villa Carlotta was a joy to visit. We loved the art work inside the villa. Be sure o look up as many of the rooms are adorned with frescos and or reliefs. The grounds are a botanical wonder with species brought in from around the world.

I have no words. Grand, classy, ​​green. Bamboo plants, very tropical. The great beauty of a sea of ​​over 150 species of plants. All this is combined with the view of Lake Como, which is open from almost every point of Villa Carlotta. Very good restaurant.

Must see! Great place to visit, beatiful inside, many sculpture, paintings few rooms with furniture with very great conditions. Amaizing garden around, it takes 2-3 hours to visit and see all villa and garden. Beautyful view from balcony for Como lake.

Villa Carlotta was beautiful (the villa, gardens, and views) and informative. I decided to get the audio guide as well and I'm very happy I did. It made walking through the gardens more immersive and, at some points, even had me emotional. The gardens can be strenuous in certain points from multiple steps and steeper climbs but the shade provided a lot of nice cover from the hot Italian sun. Additionally, the property has three different routes available: whole, quick, and wheelchair accessible. The Villa itself is full of history and allows you to see artworks and historical preservation. Will be a historical place I visit again next time I am in Lake Como.

Great place to visite. We even met a nice photographer who offer us free service. The villa is very BIG. Take your time to visit. Maybe 3 hours for everything. Most of the visit part is in the garden. They also have absolutely nice views.

A beautiful estate with a fascinating walk to and from the site. Definitely touristy but absolutely worth the visit. Be aware: Google’s “mostly flat” description is misleading—you’ll need to tackle some uphill sections, so bring good shoes.

Very beautiful and pristine villa. Everything is very manicured and clean. It is about a 2km walk from the Leno ferry terminal. Definitely some gradients so wear comfortable shoes. This villa is home to famous scenes in Star Wars and also James Bond Casino Royale.

We’ve photographed several pre-wedding shoots at Villa del Balbianello, and every single time it feels like a dream. The views over Lake Como are breathtaking, and the villa itself is pure magic. In spring, the wisteria blooms beautifully across the villa, creating an even more enchanting atmosphere. Every corner is photogenic, from the iconic terrace overlooking the lake to the lush gardens. It’s truly one of the most incredible locations in Italy for a photoshoot.

Such an incredible place to visit if you are going to Lago di Como, I would suggest buying the tickets in advance so you can skip the wait, bring comfortable shoes, I wouldn’t recommend heels or anything like that if you do want to enjoy the most hidden places here. Very clean, it takes about 2-3 hours so see and enjoy most of the villa! Is a must!

One word – magnificent. I recommend buying tickets in advance to avoid waiting. We arrived at 10 a.m. and waited about 20 minutes in line. The villa opens at 10:00 a.m. They allow only a limited number of visitors inside, which is great because it’s not overcrowded. The ticket costs €14.

Beautiful Villa... Looked stunning in Casino Royale! In person so much more!!! Tour is a must do to understand the last owner.. ended up buying the book about him. A must visit if in the area.

Magnificent experience. No words to describe the views here! Do not miss this on your visit to Como. There is about a 25 min walk of up and down driveway (some paved & some gravel), might be hard for some who are not able to walk far distances. The walk is well worth the work however!

Worth the long hike. Terrific views and lovely Italian atmosphere. Look out for hidden treasures along the path.

Beautiful and very doable little climb past historical UNESCO-protected chapels towards the little church on top, with a great view on Lake Como all along the walk! Also do visit the sweet little restaurant behind the church.

Great views, nice walk up, beautiful chapel

Unique place with hidden treasures.

Good walk, nice views, cool stuff to see all the way up

What a climb! The statues in the chapels are macabre! But views of the lake is spectacular.

A stroll into the spirituality of the ancient catholic culture in stunning landscape scenarios

Visited the special exhibition on 100 years Hitchcock feat. movies shot at Lake Como incl. Casino Royale and Star Wars. The museum's director even took the time to explain us the history of the lake's villas after the museum had officially closed.

(Translated by Google) A very pleasant surprise. For those who love the lake, it is beautiful to relive the evolution of the landscapes. The multimedia content is also interesting. Thanks to the Director who takes care of the museum with great passion. Highly recommended (Original) Una piacevolissima sorpresa. Per chi ama il lago bellissimo rivivere l'evoluzione dei paesaggi. Interessante anche i contenuti multimediali. Un ringraziamento al Direttore che cura con grande passione il museo. Vivamente consigliato

(Translated by Google) An enchanting place, apart from showing the beauties and curiosities of the Como landscape, it is a cultural venue for very interesting poetry and literature exhibitions and events. (Original) Un luogo incantevole, a parte di mostrare le bellezze e curiosità sul paesaggio comasco, è sede culturale di mostre ed eventi di poesia e letteratura, molto interessante.

(Translated by Google) A beautifully maintained period villa. The cinema exhibition is beautiful, as is the 19th and 20th century paintings of Lake Como. Well done! (Original) Villa d epoca tenuta benissimo, bella la mostra del cinema oltre a quella di dipinti dell 800 e 900 del lago di Como. Bravi

(Translated by Google) For those like me who were born in Como and have lived in Como for almost all the years of their lives, it was a wonderful experience. Seeing a place from the past and making comparisons and looking for differences, seeing how the landscape has changed over the years, how countries have evolved. Very interesting (Original) Per chi come me è nato a Como e ha vissuto a Como per quasi tutti gli anni della propria vita, è stata un bellissima esperienza. Vedere un luogo del passato e fare i raffronti e cercare le differenze vedere come il paesaggio è cambiato negli anni, come i paesi si sono evoluti. Molto interessante

(Translated by Google) A museum perfectly integrated into the territory and on the territory! (Original) Un museo perfettamente inserito nel territorio e sul territorio!

Such a beautiful place to spend a whole day/night ! Lake, facilities, shower, amazing view of the lake and the villas. I felt in love with this garden/parco

Nice park where people take their time to relax in the trees’ shadow, while the newlyweds have their photoshoots with the Como lake views ;) there’s also a fountain and a coffee shop, so you can simply spend some time watching the boats sailing.

Beautiful park and lake view. In the summer they also host music festival concerts. Day time is a bit overcrowded with teenagers sun bathing and swimming in the lake.

Free parking, perfect for enjoying the lake view! There’s a bar, restrooms available, and a staircase area that’s perfect for taking amazing photos! This Park was featured in my Budget-Friendly Guide to Lake Como! 🗺️Check my profile for more!

Lovely Lakeside grassy morning suntrap area, 100m or so from Tremezzo ferry stop. There is access from the park via steps to get in lake for a dip if you are into that. Lovely to watch across the lake and to see couples having their wedding photos taken

Beautiful park with centuries-old trees. In summer it transforms into a beach, and there’s a corner bar serving food and drinks.

Great little lakeside park with plenty of room, views and a snack bar! We spent a peaceful hour under the shade of trees with some gelato!!

Villa Sola Cabiati is the embodiment of Italianità—a place where heritage, artistry, and romance are seamlessly woven into its magnificent walls. While the villa itself is a masterpiece of elegance, what truly sets it apart is its impeccable staff. Their dedication to preserving and sharing the villa’s legacy is remarkable; they operate at the highest levels of luxury hospitality, yet with a warmth and passion that make every guest feel truly welcome. The Stucco Room is among the most breathtaking spaces I have ever stepped into—an exquisite showcase of intricate craftsmanship and timeless beauty. Having visited many Italian villas, I can confidently say that Villa Sola Cabiati is one of my absolute favorites. It is grand yet intimate, majestic yet deeply inviting. From the very moment you step onto the grounds, you are transported into another world—a world of refined beauty, history, and la dolce vita. Every corner of this storied villa is a tribute to artistry, heritage, luxury, and the effortless charm of Italy. Here I photographed S&D’s wedding, which was an unforgettable experience. To this day, their gallery remains one of my all-time favorites—a testament to the magic that unfolds within these walls.

I have just photographed a beautiful 3-day spring wedding here, the location is the epitome of luxury with the most incredible views of Lake Como. The venue interiors are as dreamy and as magnificent as their surroundings. This venue is a photographers delight to work in. The property has its own dock which made it easy for the bride and groom to rent a boat to go for some fun and stunning photos on the lake, which is a must when in Lake Como!

Two words to describe this villa: the villa is gorgeous and breathtaking 😍 once you are in the villa, you feel the atmosphere of the ancient aristocracy enveloping you, transporting you to a bygone era of opulence and grandeur.

Amazing historical vibes!

Dream Palace!

Imposing villa on the Lake Como.

Simply Amazing :-)

Absolutely beautiful hotel. The room was wonderful (corner terrace suite), and service at the main restaurant and pool restaurant was good. I docked two stars because the service at the lobby outside bar was absolutely horrible. We experienced this two nights in a row, and then did not attempt to go back after that. Also the spa was great in terms of facilities, however we were not offered towels, robes, or a locker which we felt was very odd. Unfortunately overall the service was a miss for us. When paying this much for a hotel you want to feel like a valued guest.

An Unforgettable Experience at Grand Hotel Tremezzo Staying at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo is nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment you arrive, you are enveloped in an atmosphere of timeless elegance and genuine warmth.

Every interaction with the staff reflects a level of attentiveness and professionalism that is rare to find. They anticipate your needs before you even articulate them, creating a seamless and personalized experience throughout your stay. Whether it’s arranging a private boat tour, recommending a hidden gem for dining, or simply greeting you with a smile that feels sincere, the team goes above and beyond in every possible way. The attention to detail is remarkable: from the beautifully curated rooms to the exquisite dining options and the immaculate grounds. It’s clear that the staff takes immense pride in ensuring every guest feels not just welcomed, but truly cared for. If you are looking for a destination that combines luxury, history, and world-class hospitality, Grand Hotel Tremezzo is in a league of its own. It’s not just a hotel stay—it’s an experience you will cherish forever.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime, unforgettable experience. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a Suite as it was our honeymoon. The concierge team warmly welcomed us, and when we opened our room door, they had our wedding song playing, accompanied by champagne, chocolate covered strawberries, sweets, a framed picture of us, and hand-written notes. It was the most thoughtful gesture. The staff goes ABOVE and BEYOND every moment the stay and it is truly extraordinary. Every minute we spent at the hotel was heaven. The suite, view, amenities, pools, spa, gardens, etc were absolutely stunning, luxe, and we couldn't get enough. Everything was personalized and we felt extremely well cared for. We had an OUTSTANDING dinner (tip: get the risotto and beef wellington!) and the most incredible breakfast buffet we had ever seen. Our server, Diogo, blew us away with his elegance, knowledge and care - he made our dining experiences magical. We are so grateful to our travel advisor, Mo and the hotel team - we are counting the days down until we can come back to the GHT!!! N&S

We had an amazing time visiting Grand Hotel Tremezzo. We watched sunset from the bar and enjoyed delicious cocktails before heading to dinner at La Terazza. It was a very elegant experience. My husband and I shared the beef wellington which was perfect! The saffron risotto was also exceptional. We will be back!

An Unforgettable Stay at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo We just finished our stay at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo and could not have been happier. Everything about this hotel is pure perfection — from the breathtaking views of Lake Como to the world-class service that makes you feel completely at home. Every staff member we encountered was warm, professional, and genuinely eager to make our stay special. The standout for us was Carolina at the front desk, who went above and beyond in every way. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful truly the embodiment of the Grand Hotel Tremezzo’s five-star experience. The property itself is stunning, classic elegance meets modern luxury. The pools, the gardens, the restaurants every detail feels curated and timeless. It’s one of those rare places where you can relax completely and still feel inspired by the surroundings. We’re already planning our return.

A bucket list location that lived up to the hype! Courteous staff that greets you by name throughout the property, unmatched views, and a consistent immersion in luxury & hospitality. The breakfast buffet is unparalleled and the bars & restaurants have enough options to feel content staying on property for the majority of the stay. We can’t wait to find a way back!

Our dining experience at the Restaurant was absolutely exceptional. The cuisine was refined and delicious, each dish prepared with great attention to detail. The service was impeccable — attentive, professional, yet warm and welcoming. The atmosphere, enhanced by the stunning interiors and beautiful view, created a truly memorable setting. Everything came together perfectly — from the ambiance to the culinary experience — making this restaurant a place we would gladly return to and highly recommend

Impressive old church building and tower.

(Translated by Google) The Church is inside a private structure and therefore we were not able to visit it. Seen from the outside, it is still functional for the tour of the hamlets of Bellagio. (Original) La Chiesa è dentro una struttura privata e quindi non abbiamo potuto visitarla. Vista da fuori è comunque funzionale al giro delle frazioni di Bellagio.

(Translated by Google) The small church, built with stones and pebbles, was built towards the end of the 10th century, while the bell tower was built during the 11th century. Visible from the lake and from the hamlet of Loppia, it is located within a private property and cannot be visited. (Original) La piccola chiesa, costruita con pietre e ciottoli, venne edificata verso la fine del X secolo, mentre il campanile fu realizzato nel corso dell'XI secolo. Visibile dal lago e dalla frazione di Loppia, si trova all'interno di una proprietà privata e non è visitabile.

(Translated by Google) A beautiful place, but it’s not clear how to get to the church. There is a sign in front of the stairs, and at the end of the stairs there is a road and a fence. The gate is closed. Perhaps the church is now closed to visitors. (Original) Красивое место, но не понятно как попасть в церковь. Указатель перед лестницей , а в конце лестницы дорога и забор. Ворота закрыты. Возможно церковь сейчас закрыта для посещений.

(Translated by Google) The building, which is located within a private property, cannot be visited, but its shapes can be seen driving along the provincial road towards Como. With a single nave, with an irregular layout, it ends with a low apse engraved with three splayed single-lancet windows. The façade is devoid of decorations and moved only by the monolithic architrave of the portal and a small cross-shaped window. It is made with stones and pebbles. A female Benedictine monastery was built next to the church, abandoned in the 17th century. At the end of the eighteenth century, the mothers of S. Colombano di Como sold their assets to P. Venini, owner of Villa Giulia. The descendants demolished the monastery in 1804 to create the avenue that led directly from the property to the lake. Too bad it can't be visited! (Original) L'edificio, che si trova all'interno di una proprietà privata non è visitabile, ma le sue forme si scorgono percorrendo la provinciale in direzione Como. Ad unica navata, con andamento irregolare, termina con un'abside bassa incisa da tre monofore strombate. La facciata è priva di decorazioni e mossa soltanto dal monolitico architrave del portale e da una finestrella a croce. È realizzata con pietre e ciottoli. Accanto alla chiesa venne edificato un monastero benedettino femminile, abbandonato nel XVII secolo. Alla fine del Settecento le madri di S. Colombano di Como cedettero i loro beni a favore di P. Venini, proprietario di Villa Giulia. I discendenti abbatterono il monastero nel 1804 per realizzare il vialone che dalla proprietà conduceva direttamente al lago.Peccato che non sia visitabile !

(Translated by Google) Of 3 only because it is never closed to the public it is private but a piece of history can be visited (Original) Di 3 solo perché non è mai chiusa al público è privata ma un pezzo de istorie può essere visitata

(Translated by Google) Too bad the building is not visible from the inside. (Google translation) Too bad the building is not visible internally. (Original) Dommage que l’édifice n’est pas visible intérieurement. (Traduction Google) Too bad the building is not visible internally.

The gardens are absolutely stunning and the views of Lake Como are unreal — definitely a must-visit for photo lovers! Dress cute, this place is made for dreamy pics. We bought tickets online and skipped the line. The villa interior isn’t super impressive, but the outdoor beauty makes it 100% worth it.

Easily one of the most beautiful places I've been. There was a crowd (we visited in September), but it was manageable and didn't bother us too much. Entry was quick and efficient and for 7 euro (13 for regular entry but still) you get access to arguably the most gorgeous views you would have seen in your life.

This is truely a lovely villa. The setting on the north end of Varenna is perfectly quiet. Property is between the road and Lake Como allowing for a magical stroll along the water. The property seemed a little worn. After a couple of days of train the paths suffered from large puddles making passage distracting on some portions. Other features were closed for repairs. The house was a treat and more intimate than some of the other villas we visited. Be sure to visit the exhibit room under the where you'll get your tickets and enter property. They have a fine audio and visual show that allows you to chose topics on the family and property history of the villa as well as the garden and it's flora. We visited in the second half of September but I can imagine Villa Monastero in blume is just amazing.

nice place. if you want to walk through the garden, it is worth spending 2 hours. there is a queue at the popular places to take pictures and you can't even look at it if you don't wait. difficult with a stroller. It's worth going in the morning, there's no line, there are fewer people

One word – magnificent. I recommend buying tickets in advance to avoid waiting. We arrived at 10 a.m. and waited about 20 minutes in line. The villa opens at 10:00 a.m. They allow only a limited number of visitors inside, which is great because it’s not overcrowded. The ticket costs €10

This is the most beautiful place I have ever been on Earth and I mean that. Wow just wow. The gardens are incredibly stunning and well kept and I probably took hundreds of photos here. Do not skip this place if you are in Varenna and spend some time here I promise it’s worth it!!! So much gorgeous scenery it felt like I was inside a pinterest board. If you are walking here from where the ferry drops you off make sure to walk along the path right next to the water with the red fence for some of the best views of the lake and then at the end head up one of the streets/stairs to get to the villa entrance.

We had a fabulous day at Villa Monastero, where every inch felt intentionally designed and beautifully maintained. The atmosphere was serene and tranquil, with stunning architecture all around—the elegant pillars, soaring arches, and vibrant flower displays made it a feast for the eyes. We visited in mid-June, when the temperature reached 34°C, yet there were plenty of shaded spots to pause and enjoy the scenery. One of our favourite moments was sitting at a picnic bench under the shade, having some snacks while taking in the spectacular lake views. The café on site offers refreshments, and there is one toilet for each gender. Both were beautifully prepared and spotless, which was a welcome detail. The combination of breathtaking views, peaceful atmosphere, and architectural beauty made Villa Monastero a truly memorable experience. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, breathe, and simply enjoy the beauty of Lake Como. Kids go free

Nice church with a more modern interior. Stop by and visit it is worth your time.

Worst the visit (5min) as it next right next to the park « Parco Civico Teresio Olivelli »

I did not visit, but the view from the lake is so beaitiful!

(Translated by Google) The church was rebuilt between 1775 and 1778 when the works were interrupted due to the death of the main financiers. The construction resumed almost a hundred years later and ended in 1894. The wall structures are made with rough-hewn blocks of a limestone typical of the Lake Como area called Moltrasio stone. (Original) La chiesa fu riedificata tra 1775 e il 1778 quando i lavori si interruppero a causa della morte dei principali finanziatori. La costruzione ripresa quasi cento anni dopo terminò nel 1894. Le strutture murarie sono realizzate con blocchi sbozzati di una pietra calcarea tipica della zona del lago di Como detta pietra di Moltrasio.

(Translated by Google) 💡 Don't miss the sublime facade of this church overlooking Lake Como! However, the interior isn't necessarily worth the detour. It's located not far from Villa Carlotta. 📖 The Church of San Lorenzo in Tremezzo was built from 1775-1776. Construction wasn't completed until 1894, which explains the rather eclectic architectural style, somewhere between neo-Roman and neo-Gothic. (Original) 💡 Ne ratez pas la sublime devanture de cette église qui surplombe le lac de Côme ! L'intérieur ne vaut cependant pas nécessairement le détour. Située non loin de la Villa Carlotta. 📖 L'église San Lorenzo à Tremezzo a été construite à partir de 1775-1776. La construction ne s'est achevée qu'en 1894, ce qui explique le style architectural assez éclectique, entre néo-romain et néo-gothique.

(Translated by Google) Nice building. But don't go to Tremezzo just for it. There is a restaurant with great ice cream across the road. (Original) Hezká stavba. Jen kvůli ní ale do Tremezza nejezděte. Naproti přes silnici je restaurace se skvělou zmrzlinou.

(Translated by Google) Externally it's eye-catching... internally a little less so. (Original) Esternamente fa dell'occhio... internamente un po meno

We stay a few nights in the Grand Hotel Cadenabbia on Lake Como years ago, it was spectacular! Although we did not eat at the hotel, so I cannot comment on the restaurant but the room was spacious and clean. The Hotel had a story of Old World Charm about it. A place to film a Movie. It is the perfect location on the Lake with the most amazing views of Lake Como and the Swiss Alps. Not far from the hotel we hired a private boat, it was a touristy kind of thing to do, as we cruised Lake Como sightseeing , our guide was informative and it was a beautiful day to be on the water. We also took a larger boat to surrounding areas, there was so much History. You could walk everywhere. I am not saying anything negative about our stay but When you have a perfect location, everything else about the Hotel should be top notch. I’m not saying it wasn’t, but one would expect the best , in everything, from Staff Uniforms, cleanliness, fresh flowers , the mattress, pillows, sheets, towels, the extra special shampoos available in the boutique, the memorable 5 star restaurants, the chefs, servers and kitchen staff, Bar and pool side. Not to ignore special items available to purchase in the Boutiques. For me, my few days felt like an amazing destination. A special spot to stay a while longer, a place an artist could absorb the scenery or write a book. It was The Perfect Place!

This was a great hotel in a perfect location if you plan to hop on ferries and travel around Lake Como. Like every other review here, yes the hotel has an older classic look. However it is a beautiful looking hotel and the room we stayed in was clean and pretty spacious. The staff is helpful and the concierge at the front is amazing! I highly recommend going to the concierge for any questions about reservations and recommendations because she was able to set all of them up for us (I.e. dinner, boat trips, ferry times etc). The pool and bar area is wonderful with beautiful views of the lake. If you have breakfast included just a heads up it is a very basic buffet style. Overall a wonderful stay and I would return/recommend to anyone.

I'm putting this review on because there are so many mixed reviews. Overall its a decent hotel. Needs some improvements yes, but overall the breakfast was really good, service was amazing, and location isn't too far from the ferries. If you are looking for a clean hotel, great views, and nice staff this is the place to stay

A very old hotel, but i picked this knowing and decided to take a chance. I enjoyed a comfortable stay, great location at centre of the lake with close access to ferry ports and almost next door to Villa Carlotta. The hotel lobby is very grand. My room gave me a nice view of the lake . The hotel has a beautiful pool area and terrace where you can enjoy some drinks while overlooking the lake. Several restaurants within walking distance for dinner and staff A+ However it does need to be heavily renovated. I spoke to the manager and they said renovations will probably start next year. The breakfast selection could have been better. Very nice overall experience

The rooms are a little simplistic but the view 100% makes up for that! We spent our time soaking up the sun on the balcony and admiring the beautiful lake. The staff were very friendly, recommended nice restaurants and helped us book a taxi to our next location. The pistachio and chocolate croissants mixed with the view of the lake at breakfast was unforgettable!!

The hotel has a beautiful pool area and terrace where you can enjoy some drinks while overlooking the lake. However, the building itself needs some upgrade like the super slow lifts (which you can't rely on to take you to the right floor) and the rooms. We had no working air conditioning in our room so it was difficult to sleep and the walls and ceiling had dirty marks on them? The hotel does have potential though cause it is a huge property with a great view of the lake.

This place was fabulous. Good room size for Italy, a little small for American size rooms. The location is perfect in between 2 ferry locations & the view is fabulous. The staff was great as well. The technology is a little dated as you can see from the picture of the AC system, but overall a great place.

Great place with only one mixed toilet facility. For the ticket prices you only see the gardens, the museums are a stretch. You pay for the views of the lake which you can see everywhere. Of all the villas we've visited this one is the least i liked. Gardens 5/5 Views 5/5 Toilet Facilities 0/5 Museums 1/5 Villa ( Not Accessible )

The gardens are beautiful. Keep in mind that you cannot enter the villa itself, however when visiting Bellagio, and would like a quiet change of pace, this is the place to go. The ferry's leaving Bellagio to Menaggio or Varenna are very long (at least it was in mid/end of May so who knows how much more busier in July- Aug), long, so plan accordingly if you need to get to another place for a specific time.

One of the most beautiful gardens I've ever visited, with interesting and well-maintained botanical species. Perfect for watching the sunset over Lake Como. It was a shame we couldn’t visit the villa inside.

We photographed a pre-wedding shoot at Villa Melzi on Lake Como, and it was absolutely magical. The gardens are full of history and charm, with stunning views over the lake and mountains. The SUNSET light there is just incredible : soft, romantic, and perfect for capturing timeless moments. Villa Melzi is truly one of the most beautiful spots on Lake Como for a photoshoot.

The views here are spectacular, with the lake’s shimmering waters, elegant villas, and the Alps rising dramatically in the background. The private boat ride across the lake added a special touch, gliding past historic estates and vibrant gardens, making the experience feel timeless and romantic :) More than just a scenic destination, this place is perfect for milestone moments or peaceful escapes. We can’t wait to return!

Villa Melzi" the perfect canvas for wedding memories Having photographed weddings in many countries, I can confidently say that Villa Melzi is exceptional. Shooting Chris and Layla here was a true joy , the elegant architecture, peaceful gardens, and sparkling views of Lake Como create a magical atmosphere for every moment. Couples choosing Villa Melzi for their wedding will find endless inspiration, soft natural light, and stunning settings that make every photo unforgettable.

I’ve tasted the most delicious caser sandwich in italy and finally hala ! The homemade apple pie is awesome and the coffee was fresh and delicious! The beautiful lady in the shop was very nice and gentle with all customers 💕 definitely need to visit it while in italy 🇮🇹

Very emotional to think what happened there, it is important to remember the war.

A leader whose ideology shaped and guided a generation from 7 to 70. He was captured in a German convoy seeking refuge in Switzerland and later held in a farmhouse. Less than 24 hours after his capture, rebels suddenly stopped their car in front of the house and demanded he get out. He and his lover were taken from the vehicle, taken away, and shot dead. A statesman and a civilian killed without trial. While his execution is unacceptable, this is a tragic event.

Very strange place, it’s a piece of history.. a little memorial to the events that took place here!

Several plaques and an information board by the roadside marking the location where Benito Mussolini and Claretta Petacci were executed. It is around 20 minutes walk from the lakeside uphill (there is a footpath but some of the way you walk along the road). The location is along a quiet and unassuming residential street. ✅Good points: Interesting for those interested in history, and important not to forget the events of WW2. Walkable from the town and Lenno feeryport. Good way to spend time while waiting for the Lenno ferry after seeing the Villa Balbianello in the morning. Thirty seconds along the road is a stone picnic table with a tap where you can rest in the shade. 👎🏻Potential drawbacks: Not much to see other than a few plaques by the roadside, can be seen in less than ten minutes. Some may find this a tiring walk uphill away from the lake in the heat of the day.

Worth a visit but with no footpath on the walk from Tremezzo it's a bit dangerous. Walk on the left to face the oncoming race cars !

Excellent! Complimenti a chi lo ha eseguito. congratulations to whoever executed it.

My dog will be very pleased to take an immense dump on this very spot.

Absolutely beautiful and spectacular villa that can match you if you are looking for a 100% private place for your event (wedding, birthday, engagement) or just for calm peaceful holidays by the lake. You may reach it just by boat, that makes this place even more special.

Pass by on the boat, it was beautiful villa along the lake.

A great oportunity for me to be here and visit this wonderful place!!!

One of the most beautiful and fairytale villa I ever saw, if you close, just visit, highly recommend

Not to diminish the beauty of the place, but with no access for the public - paid or not - this is just another private palazzo not to enter or enjoy. As this is not mentioned anywhere else, now it is.

Great place with great staff! It was a pleasure to meet all of you, thanks for all the hospitality and kindness you showed.

Super.

Nice place high above the lake. Very quiet, except on 1st of May almost no one will be there. It's quite a hike up from Oseccio though so pack your hiking boots.

Enchanting medieval monastery surrounded by the forest. You can arrive here only walking through the woods

Great hike from Lenno. Very steep at times.

Good trail to reach the place . And it looks really good.

(Translated by Google) A jewel in the woods, a place of peace and beauty. Reachable along a circular route that starts and returns to Ossuccio. The difference in altitude is over 500m in just a few kilometres: the climb is challenging but not the route itself. However, it is very beautiful, panoramic (with a lake view) in some places and the rest in the woods. The chirping of birds will keep you company, no other noises. (Original) Un gioiello nel bosco, luogo di pace e bellezza. Raggiungibile lungo un percorso ad anello che parte e ritorna ad Ossuccio. Il dislivello è di oltre 500mt in pochi km: impegnativa la salita ma non il percorso di per sé. È comunque molto bello, panoramico (con vista lago) in alcuni tratti e per il resto nel bosco. Il cinguettio degli uccelli vi terrà compagnia, nessun altro rumore.

(Translated by Google) A tough walk but rewarded upon arrival in a wonderful place. Monastery immersed in the woods in a place of peace. (Original) Camminata impervia ma ripagata all'arrivo in un posto meraviglioso. Monastero immerso nel bosco in un luogo di pace.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful church completely immersed in nature and silence. The walk to get there is beautiful, also taking the circular route from Madonna del Socco to the Acquafredda Abbey. A little challenging as some sections are really steep, but the effort will be rewarded. (Original) Meravigliosa chiesa completamente immersa nella natura e nel silenzio. Bella la passeggiata per arrivarci, facendo anche il giro ad anello da Madonna del soccorso all'abbazia dell acquafredda. Un poco impegnativo in quanto alcuni tratti sono veramente ripidi, ma la fatica verrà ripagata.

Take the worn path on the left as you leave, you’ll thank me later

(Translated by Google) small and fine, a landmark to enjoy the lake view. The tower is locked and there is no sign indicating what can be seen inside... but everything around it is well maintained and the place is well suited for a picnic. (Original) klein und fein, ein Landmark zum Seeblick genießen. der Turm ist verschlossen ind es gibt keine Tafel mit Hinweis, was drin zu sehen wäre… aber drumherum ist alles gepflegt, und für einen Picknick ist der Ort gut geeignet.

The view of Bellagio is partial due to some tall trees.

We stayed a couple of beautiful September days at Villa Molli. The house, the views, the place were exceptional - even better then the pictures... But the people of Molli where the most special, the excellent cooking, the service and friendliness.... Note: the house is of such a great design and high standard that we would immediately want to move in... We had a truly phenomenal experience! Thx Molli Family!

Special! It’s an incredible place, best view on the lake, great service and real vip experience

perfect acc. incredible view, excellent service

Rude and unprofessional.

(Translated by Google) Discovered some work nearing completion, amazed by the magnificent view that opens the horizon over the Sala Comacina until it gets lost on the eastern shore of Lake Como, conceived with all the possible comforts imaginable in an oasis of peace and tranquility, fortunately still immersed in a green area, compliments to the architect who conceived it (Original) Scoperta qualche amminfa in fase di ultimazione , sbalordito dalla magnifica vista che apre l'orizzonte sul sala comacina fino a perdersi sulla sponda est del lago di Como, concepita con tutti i comfort possibili immaginabili in un oasi di pace e tranquillità , immersa per fortuna ancora in un area verde, complimenti all'architetto che l'ha concepita

(Original) Villa da 1000 è una notte! La vista che offre in qualsiasi punto esterno della villa è meravigliosa! Curata in ogni piccolo particolare e ben suddivisa. Consigliatissama!

(Translated by Google) Unique view of Comacina island, fantastic infinity pool, all very refined with Maldives style outdoor shower but surrounded by olive trees (Original) Vista unica su isola Comacina, fantastica piscina a sfioro, tutto molto raffinato con doccia esterna stile Maldive ma in mezzo agli ulivi

(Translated by Google) The villa is very good and very large; the view, magnificent. Facilities sometimes leaving a little to be desired: capricious cooker. Downside: the house is difficult to access by car because the path is narrow and very steep. We burned our clutch when we arrived and didn't dare park the car in the house parking lot. Being accompanied by older people, getting around was quite complicated since the paths leading to the center of Bellagio are in fact stairs or the main road, very busy and without sidewalk. So we had to go back and forth on foot and by car, especially since the parking lots are crowded in season. In addition, it was difficult to get around by public transport: buses every two hours, tourist train stopping around 6:30 p.m., road too dangerous on foot in the dark. (Original) La villa est très bien et tres grande; la vue, magnifique. Installations laissant parfois un peu à désirer: cuisinière capricieuse. Point noir: la maison est difficile d'accès en voiture car le chemin est étroit et très pentu. Nous avons cramé notre embrayage en arrivant et n'avons plus osé garer la voiture sur la parking de la maison. Étant accompagnés de personnes plus âgées, les déplacements ont été assez compliqués puisque les chemins menant au centre de Bellagio sont en fait des escaliers ou la route principale, très fréquentée et sans trottoir. Il a donc fallu faire des aller-retours à pied et en voiture, surtout que les parkings sont bondés en saison. En outre, il était difficile de se déplacer en transport en commun: bus toutes les deux heures, train touristique cessant de circuler vers 18h30, route trop dangereuse à pied dans le noir.

(Translated by Google) The house itself was very nice, but unfortunately we had a very negative experience upon arrival. When we arrived on Thursday evening, the house had not been cleaned after the previous guests. There were dirty bed linen and wet towels everywhere, and it was completely out of the question to stay in those conditions. We contacted the host immediately, but were told that laundry could not be done until the next day, and that we would have to find a hotel ourselves. After this, the host became unavailable and did not respond to inquiries. The house was not completely cleaned until late in the day on Friday, and even then there was still dust and dirt in several places - it was clear that it had not been done thoroughly. We have subsequently tried to enter into dialogue with the host to find a solution for compensation for this, but it has been very difficult. Overall, a frustrating and disappointing start to the stay, which characterized large parts of the holiday. (Original) Selve huset var veldig fint, men vi hadde dessverre en svært negativ opplevelse ved ankomst. Da vi kom torsdag kveld, var huset ikke rengjort etter forrige gjester. Det lå skittent sengetøy og våte håndklær overalt, og det var helt uaktuelt å bli boende under de forholdene. Vi kontaktet verten umiddelbart, men fikk beskjed om at vask ikke kunne skje før dagen etter, og at vi måtte finne hotell selv. Etter dette ble verten utilgjengelig og svarte ikke på henvendelser. Huset ble ikke ferdig rengjort før langt ut på dagen fredag, og selv da var det fortsatt støv og skitt flere steder – det var tydelig at det ikke var gjort grundig. Vi har i etterkant forsøkt å komme i dialog med verten for å finne en løsning på kompensasjon for dette, men det har vært svært vanskelig. Totalt sett en frustrerende og skuffende start på oppholdet, som preget store deler av ferien.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful Villa with stunning views of the lake! Very nice designer interior, convenient location, has everything you need for relaxation! Beautiful relaxation area by the pool and large well-kept garden! Irina met us, helped us organize our leisure time and was always ready to help us. Very clean, modern bathrooms. There were 10 of us and we had a great time in this charming city. The walk to the old town of Bellagio took 20 minutes, but this was not a problem! (Original) Прекрасная Вилла с потрясающими видами на озеро! Очень приятный дизайнерский интерьер, удобное расположение, есть все необходимое для отдыха! Красивая зона релакса у бассейна и большой ухоженный сад! Ирина нас встретила, помогла в организации досуга и всегда была готова помочь нам. Очень чисто, современные ванные комнаты. Нас было 10 человек и мы прекрасно провели время в этом чарующем городе. Прогулки до старого города Белладжо занимали 20 мин, но это не было проблемой!

(Translated by Google) Fantastic place! The person who welcomed us was very kind, he also gave us advice on where to eat and where to walk. The house is complete with everything and clean. The swimming pool is something unspeakable as are the furnishings and the glass shower!!! We will definitely be back but for a few more days! (Original) Posto fantastico! La persona che ci ha accolto é stata gentilissima, ci ha anche dato dei consigli su dove mangiare e dove passeggiare. La casa é completa di tutto e pulita.

(Translated by Google) Immediately afterwards, upstream from the state road, Villa Meier is the central building of the vast property established starting in 1918 by Roberto Meier, a Swiss entrepreneur who became rich from the cotton trade at the time of the First World War. The task of renovating the nineteenth-century Villa Ortensia and constructing a series of accessory buildings was entrusted to Pietro Lingeri, a twenty-year-old architect from Tremezzo, destined to become one of the masters of Rationalism. The property is now largely public and used as a municipal park. The manor house has essentially maintained its original appearance, except for the addition of two volumes facing upstream and towards the parish house. Not far away, in a private area, there are some buildings - the villa, the greenhouse and the garage. – expanded by Lingeri. At the upper border of the property, a spectacular architectural backdrop acts as a backdrop to the tennis court and allows you to mask the difference in height that marks the edge of the land. Among the smaller buildings, the circular pavilion used as a kennel is notable. The lakeside portion of the property is occupied by the park dedicated to the memory of Teresio Olivelli, gold medal for military valour, although the traditional name of Meier Park is still in current use. Extract from the Guide «Discovering Tremezzina» (Francesco Soletti, Edizioni New Press 2017). (Original) Subito dopo, a monte della statale, Villa Meier è l'edificio centrale della vasta proprietà costituita a partire dal 1918 da Roberto Meier, imprenditore svizzero arricchitosi con il commercio del cotone al tempo della Prima Guerra Mondiale. Il compito di ristrutturare l'ottocentesca villa Ortensia e di costruire una serie di edifici accessori venne affidato a Pietro Lingeri, ventenne architetto tremezzino, destinato a diventare uno dei maestri del Razionalismo. La proprietà è oggi in gran parte pubblica e adibita a parco comunale. La residenza padronale ha sostanzialmente mantenuto la fisionomia originaria, al netto dell'aggiunta di due volumi rivolti a monte e verso la casa parrocchiale. Poco distante, in una zona privata, si trovano alcune costruzioni, – il villino, la serra e la rimessa. – ampliate da Lingeri. Al confine superiore della proprietà una scenografica quinta architettonica fa da sfondo al campo da tennis e consente di mascherare il dislivello che segna il margine del terreno. Notevole, tra le costruzioni minori, il padiglione circolare adibito a canile. La porzione a lago della proprietà è occupata dal parco dedicato alla memoria di Teresio Olivelli, medaglia d'oro al valore militare, anche se la denominazione tradizionale di Parco Meier è ancora d'uso corrente. Estratto dalla Guida «Scoprire la Tremezzina» (Francesco Soletti, Edizioni New Press 2017).
