The Valsecchi Residence
This contemporary two-bedroom apartment within a larger complex in Maccagno on the shore of Lake Maggiore sleeps up to 4 and is ideal for a family traveling with 1 or 2 school-aged children. Within walking distance to many shops, cafés, and restaurants picturesque Maccagno, the residence is 45 minutes from Lugano and under 2 hours from Lake Como and Milan. The neutral earth tones, clean lines, and subtle artistic touches create a calming space; we love the open plan living, dining and kitchen area which has plenty of space for all the family. After a morning spent walking around the lake, parents can enjoy a hot soak in the shared outdoor Jacuzzi tub or watch the kids splash and play in the communal pool while sipping cocktails on the balcony.

Maccagno, Italian Lakes
Views of the Alps

Don’t miss the Civico Museo Parsi Valle, an architectural delight and temple to art, or a trip to Switzerland at the other side of the lake.
