Why book with us

Best price, no commission

Passenger boats on Lake Como with villages and mountains behind

On the booking portals the price you see includes a commission that never reaches the people hosting you. Book here and that part simply is not there.

Why direct costs less

Booking portals keep a commission on every stay. That is their model and it is fair enough: it pays for the shop window that helped you find the property.

But the cost is real, and when you book directly it is not there. It is not a promotional discount that appears and disappears: it is one item fewer in the price.

You talk to the people who run the place

Write to us and we answer, not a call centre that has to pass the question on. Questions about the apartment, the pool or your arrival get answered by someone who actually knows the place.

For quick questions there is WhatsApp at +39 0344 1930036, the most direct way to get an answer while you are travelling.

What to ask before booking

It is worth telling us how many you are, whether you are travelling with children or a dog, and what you actually need: the ten apartments differ, and not all of them have air conditioning.

Air conditioning is in Mimosa, Fiordaliso and Fior di Pesco. If it matters to you, say so early, so we can suggest the right one rather than the available one.
