A Dream Come True!
Casa Balcone was all we could expect and more! The location can’t be beat, the view was incredible, and the interior furnishings were all anyone could want! Varenna is a small, beautiful, warm town. The ferries were 5 minutes from the apartment. Shops and restaurants were plentiful. Last, but not least, Georgio!!! He is the Ambassador of Varenna. We are 3 women coming in from a Viking Cruise and we were sick. Georgio brought in a doctor! We relaxed, visited the other small towns, and Georgio took us all to dinner on our final night! We will be back and I couldn’t recommend Casa Balcone any higher! *****❤️

Lovely place and neighborhood
We stayed here for 3 nights during out vacation and really enjoyed the apartment and area as a whole. The communication with host was outstanding. He picked us up at the train station which was a big perk and gave us a quick run down of the town. He was also kind enough to have a bottle of wine waiting at the apartment. Would highly recommend this place, host, and town in general if looking for a Lake Como vacation spot.

Perfect location in the heart of Varenna!!
Wake up to spectacular views and stroll out your door for anything you want! A cappuccino, a spritz, a gelato, a boat ride! Take all the hosts recommendations and you will have an amazing time. The restaurants were excellent. We personally liked Varenna more than Bellagio!! And we loved mennagio too!

Lakeview Dream
Our stay in this apartment was lovely. You overlook the water, hear the church bell ring and hear the clunking of boats. You over look the lakeside views of cafes and shops. It’s a walkable location to the ferry, restaurants and grocery store. Lorena and Giorgio were wonderful. They provided us a taxi to get to the apartment. Pack light, lots of stairs overall make packing light essential and easier.

Best view in Varenna
We stayed four nights here out of our month stay in Italy. This was one of our favorite accommodations. The view is the best! The location is perfect. The town was our favorite on the lake too. It’s more beautiful in person, pictures don’t do it justice. Giorgio was great- super helpful. Picked us up at the train station gave us a brief driving tour of the area.

Magnificant!!
Really loved this property. View and location cannot be beat. Just be forwarded that Varenna does have a lot of steps to be navigated if you want to tour the town. We did have to walk up some outside steps and up one flight of steps inside, but that was no issue for us. House had all the necessary items for an enjoyable stay. Giorgio was a polite host and easy to communicate with.

Fantastic!
Everything about our stay was fabulous! Giorgio always communicated promptly. His son, Alberto, met us in the piazza, gave a great unto to Varenna, and was as nice and helpful as could be. The view from our balcony was breathtaking, and the apartment was very clean and comfortable!!! If I go back I’ll certainly stay there!!!

The most perfect place to stay in Varenna. The apartment was just as pictured. The location was perfect-close to everything during the day, but yet quiet at night. The host is one of the best we have encountered in our travels. Communication was excellent.
