Perks for the Parents
Located in the characteristic and quiet village of Blevio in Italy, this stylish apartment has beautiful views over Lake Como and plenty of space for little ones. It sleeps 4. This residence is in the perfect place for guests to visit Como, Milan, and Bellagio by car, or to explore Lake Como by boat. Spacious and light-filled, this relaxing space with awe-inspiring views is perfect for parents to unwind after a busy day of traveling or sight-seeing. The nearby city of Como is filled with historic architecture, gothic cathedrals, and unique tourist spots - perfect for parents in search of some culture on their vacation.
Why Kids Love it
This spacious apartment is perfect for small families - kids can play in the open plan living room or run around on the balcony. It's a short walk from local playgrounds and they’ll love taking a boat trip to the other parts of Lake Como. On the western side of the lake, they can visit the waterfront ‘beach’ Lido Villa Olmo, stop off at some of the beautiful lake-side parks, or try some of the water-sports on offer at the various harbor towns. An hour’s drive north, you’ll find a toddler-dedicated mini golf course with lake views (Viale Benedetto Castelli), and an hour’s drive south will take you to Leolandia Park - a magical theme park with amusements, animated characters, and shows.
Things to Know
Minimum stay: 1 night. The apartment is located on the second floor and there is an elevator. The balcony is fitted with high railings so it is safe for young children to enjoy. There are public parking spots available on the street - car rental is recommended to explore the wider area. The hosts can provide a baby bed and high chair on request. Pets allowed - please ask when booking. The residence comes with washer/dryer, dishwasher, flatscreen TV, and WiFi.
About the Location
The apartment is located in Blevio, on the eastern side of Lake Como in Italy. It’s 5 minutes’ walk to the bus stop for travel to Bellagio and the city of Como (which is 10 minutes’ drive). Milan’s Malpensa International Airport is around 1 hour away by car. In the village you’ll find a few children’s playgrounds and a local grocery shop. On the shores of Lake Como, there is a ferry stop to access the other towns and cities on the water, as well as a wake-boarding center, restaurant, and skate park. Families with older kids or teens can also try some of the challenging hiking or biking routes in the scenic mountains surrounding the lake.
Accommodation Details
This apartment has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, set on 1 floor. The primary bedroom has a double bed; the second bedroom has 2 single beds. The main bathroom has a bathtub; the second bathroom features a large shower. The living areas include a large living room, dining area (which can be screened off from the living room, and also has access to the balcony), and fully-equipped kitchen with additional dining table. There’s also a beautiful terrace outside, with outdoor dining furniture to sit and enjoy the magnificent sunsets over Lake Como.
Style Notes
Blue hues. Bright, modern, and comfy, this apartment boasts colorful and contemporary design touches with a strong influence of rich blue tones, mirroring the colors of the lake in the spectacular views. The practical yet stylish wooden floor hints again at the natural surroundings, while the minimalist kitchen is simple yet sophisticated. We love dramatic art work on the walls, the ultra-modern transparent kitchen chairs, and the elegant blue wooden furniture which draw the eye from room to room.

Lake Como, Italian Lakes
Speed boats, pizzerias and lakeside views
Lake Como has hit the headlines as a celebrity spot, full of film stars, rock stars and blockbuster villas. Beside the glitz and glamour, you’ll find plenty of family fun from speed boats to hire to lakeside pizzerias for lazy lunches and the Como/Brunate funicular for vertiginous views of the deep blue lake.
