Summary: You will not be disappointed with this location! Mauro is incredibly helpful and a delight to be around. We managed to wreck our rental car two days into our eight day stay. Instead of replacing it, we learned to take the bus and ferry everywhere and it was totally worth it. Staying at Mauro's home was like going back in time. You won't get a 5 star hotel bed, but you will not regret the experience or the stay at his place. Thank you!

Summary: We (a couple with a 2 year old) ended our Italian summer holiday at Mauro's house in Cremia. After spending a week in a very quiet town in Tuscany, the area of lake Como felt a lot busier. Still, Mauro's place was very secluded and peaceful, with a great view of the lake! We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was great with a supermarket and bar within 5 minutes walking, and lake Como and some restaurants also reachable by foot. The car is parked more than 5 minutes away. For us this was no problem (although we packed way to much!), but it's good to keep in mind. Mauro, thank you for helping us with all the luggage!

Summary: Villa Iolanda was a perfect place to experience all that Lake Como has to offer. The hillside location has fantastic views of the lake and the mountains, and the house is quiet, comfortable, and very relaxing to stay at. We had easy access to the lake and boat shuttles, the local mountains, and it’s an easy trip into Switzerland too. Mauro was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We loved Cremia ! Thanks Mauro !

Summary: We, family of five (three young children), really enjoyed our stay in Villa Iolanda due to its stunning interior and exterior appearance, tidyness and location. Upon our arrival, we were greeted by the most kind owner Mauro on the public parking space and were then escorted to the house via a six minute walk on a donkey trail to the entrance of the house. In the meantime, Mauro helped us carrying our bags with an electric cart. Don't let the short walk scare you off, it is a comfortably hike along typical Italian houses and landscape with view on the lake. The house and the views on the lake as shown on the pictures are even better in real life. It is difficult to capture the atmosphere and the coherence of all rooms, but the pictures sum it up quite well. The house is well equipped and you will find all the materials you need to make a proper meal (both in the kitchen as well outside on the BBQ) and to have a comfortable stay. In the near vicinity there is a lot to do: hiking (to San Dominica church up the hill), swimming (public beach in Cremia, 5 min walk), diner (La Baia), boat trip (from Menaggio to Bellagio or Varenna), caves, etc. But even sitting outside on the terrace or one of the balconies and watch the sailboats on the lake was something we did very often. And at night looking at all the lights across the lake. One time we even witnessed a fireworks display on the other side of the lake. Bread can be bought every morning in a small supermarket up the hill (5 min walk), as well as other basic groceries. Larger supermarkets can be found when you search for Iperal, Conad, Carrefour or Bennet. We only stayed for one week and then went on to Switzerland, but we wished we could stay one week longer. One final word about Mauro: in 2,5 years he renovated the house by himself in a way you will rarely see again. The level of detail (both construction and decoration) is astonishing. Apart from this, he is also the best host you can imagine. He is open to every question you have and he will do its utmost best to make your stay as pleasant as possible. We definitely hope to come back to Villa Iolanda and the Como lake again!

Summary: We had a lovely week-long stay at this villa and were welcomed by Mauro who was very helpful throughout our stay. We appreciated the bottle of local wine that he provided on our arrival. There are amazing views of the lake from the two sunny balconies. We were two couples using one double bedroom and one twin. There are no en suites but an upstairs bathroom and a downstairs one. I think it is worth knowing that the villa is a 7 minute walk from the car park along a former donkey track. Mauro hauled our luggage on a trolley. He provided a torch, although you may also want to take your own, for returning to the villa after eating at one of the local restaurants. There is a steep walk down to the two restaurants in the village which is fine, whilst the return walk after a big meal requires effort. We had generally good weather but on one wet day we appreciated the wood burning fire in the lounge and we also roasted chestnuts that we collected on local paths. There is a small supermarket 5 minutes walk up the hill. A car is useful for this accommodation so as to explore the surrounding towns and villages. Primary school children and young teenagers would enjoy sleeping on each of the platforms above the two bedrooms so the accommodation could accommodate 2 families of 4 at a very reasonable price. We liked the fact that it was out of the tourist areas and less commercial than many of the more famous resorts.

Summary: The reviews say it all, every one excellent and worthy of five stars. This stone house has clearly been restored with great precision and care, and importantly, with a sense of warmth and generosity by the owner. The house, with its expert touches and clever use of beautiful, natural timber finishes and tiling, is extremely comfortable and a wonderful place to come back to after a day of sightseeing, hiking or just relaxing by the lake. Mauro himself, is a five and a half star host, considerate, knowledgeable, and always helpful. It was an absolute pleasure to talk to him about the area and its history, and his life experiences, and I thank him for so kindly giving of his time.

Summary: We enjoyed a wonderful week in this beautiful house. The apartment was perfectly nice and extraordinarily clean, exactly matching the description, and with an amazing view over the lake. Mauro is a perfect host, always helpful with every questions and needs and very friendly. We visited all the nice villages around the lake, taking a 15 € daily pass so you can jump on and off the boats. Another day, we drove to Chiavenna, a nice small village a bit up in the mountains. And we had a lot of fun visiting the small Cremia village shop, selling all you need for a couple of days. Even one day of heavy thunderstorms did not disturb us: the apartment is so cosy that we enjoyed a day at the fireplace, reading and playing games. It is a perfect place for families or friends, but I would hesitat to go there with small children - I was glad our teenage kids (15, 17, 19) are not toddlers anymore: The stairs are steep and the way to the house is a beautiful but uneven path of about five minutes walk. However, it was perfect for us - I certainly do recommend the house!
