Beautiful apartment overlooking Lake Maggiore
The owner was very kind and helpful by meeting us at the bus stop down town and driving us to our apartment, which was very clean and had a wonderful view overlooking Lake Maggiore. The 3 islands opposite Stresa were only a few minutes away and were worth a visit, especially Isla Bella with beautiful landscaped gardens and lots of white peacocks. The day trip to Locarno in Switzerland via train through the Alps and return trip by ferry is a must trip for only 34 Euros. We went to Cafe Torino in Piazza Cordona every night as the staff were so friendly and the food was very good at reasonable prices . We went on a day trip to Milan, an hour away by train. We would highly recommend this apartment as the perfect spot to explore Lake Maggiore.
Kind regards

Modern Apartment with stunning view
High on the hill above Stresa is this delightful spacious modern apartment. The website pictures are a true representation of the place. Clean and well maintained with a well equipped kitchen, onsite parking and fast wifi. We were met on arrival by our congenial host who was most helpful. He spoke excellent English. We had the option of staying in the village but chose the quieter residence up the hill. It was the middle of winter so not a casual stroll to the village, but an easy 5minute drive. Highly recommended
Clean, Beautiful, Modern, Wonderful
The apartment was really beautiful. All the furnishings are super modern, Scandinavian style, and the kitchen is fully equipped. We stayed in the Fiorella apartment which had a superb view, a spacious balcony (part with sun, part with shade) and a comfortable table. The bed was excellent and comfortable as was the bathroom. The building is up on a hill overlooking Stresa, but the walk is only 5 minutes into town. The only downside is that the walk requires walking alongside a very busy road for about 50 meters. Other than that, its picturesque and cuts through some gorgeous neighborhoods. Idyllic.
amazing ROOM WITH A VIEW!!
we stayed in this apartment in late July with two adolescents - this apartment is really very spacious, very clean and with the most amazing view of the lake - be advised that the views are MUCH more than the pictures here suggest : especially during sunrise and sunset, and even in rainy weather. we sat for hours on the balcony
one thing to note: the road down to stresa is without a sidewalk and can be dangerous for pedestrians - it is better to drive to stresa rather than walk. once in town - park the car (always found parking near the train station), and walk to tuor hearts content...
very much recommend the apartment for families.
Ideal base for lakes and mountains
We had 10 days in the apartment and found it a perfect base. Stresa is by
far the town with most character and biggest range of interesting shops and
restaurants around the Lake. The apartment located just up the hill from the
main town had the most beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and the
lake. The pictures can't do justice to this. I would recommended a car though as
the road into town is steep and winding. We spent most evenings relaxing on
the balcony enjoying the view. The apartment though basic was spotlessly
clean and comfortable and for the money as good as we could have wished.
Stresa is an ideal base for exploring the area. The train to Milan from the
local station is reasonably priced and beats the stress of driving in a busy
city. Orta is definitely worth a visit, as are the local islands, and the
trip up the mountain in the cablecar
Vue magnifique et appartement très fonctionnel
Appartement près du centre ville de Stresa (10 minutes à pieds). Les plus de la résidence sont une vue magnifique sur les iles Borromées, un vrai grand balcon, une climatisation silencieuse et efficace, un parking couvert au pied de la résidence. De plus, nous avons bénéficié d'un accueil chaleureux.
Map
Stresa is a beautiful, elegant town on Lake Maggiore. It lies at the foot of the Italian Alps. The airport at Malpensa is only 45 km away and Milan itself is about 80 km. There is a railway station in Stresa and bus service to other lakeside towns such as Arona and Verbania.
Stresa offers the ideal location for a relaxing or for a more active holiday.
The apartment is located in the hills just above Stresa and is just a short taxi ride from the station or a 10-minute walk into town centre via pedestrian steps and paths through the park. It is 1 km from the centre of Stresa.
From Lake Maggiore you can take a boat trip to the Borromean Islands (Isola Bella with its magnificent castle, Isola, Madre and Isola dei Pescatori with its fish restaurants). You can even take a boat to Switzerland. Also by the lake, there is a small beach and a playground for children.
There are many sporting activities on Lake Maggiore (swimming, boating, sailing, water skiing, scuba diving, windsurfing) and also on the slopes of the Mottarone mountain. In summer you can go hiking, mountain biking (guided tours can be arranged), paragliding, hang-gliding, horse-riding and in winter skiing, snowboarding or snowshoeing. There is cable car, which takes you to the summit of Mount Mottarone. From the summit you have a spectacular panorama of Lake Maggiore and the 6 other Alpine lakes and also of the Alps and of Monte Rosa and the Val Grande National Park.
There are many Golf Clubs including the Golf Club of the Borromean Islands and Golf Alpino (one of the oldest in Italy).
Day excursions are possible to Macugnaga, to the waterfalls in the valley of Val Toce Formazza or to the Simplon Pass or to the tiny exquisite Lake Orta.
There are many beautiful 19th century villas and gardens to visit such as Villa Taranto, Villa Pallavicino and the Alpinia Gardens. Stresa is also famous for its grand 'Belle Epoque' hotels that grace the shores of the lake.
For walkers, there are numerous lovely walks in the surrounding area and the Val Grande National Park is a hikers' paradise. Riding and tennis are also available.
For those of you in need of some serious shopping and culture and city-life, Milan is only a short 45 minutes away on the Express train from Stresa station.
I have other holiday rentals in Stresa and on Lake Maggiore, on Lake Orta, Lake Como and Lake Garda - please contact me for details.
