Fantastic view !

The view could not be better. With the view obviously comes height. We were fine to do the hike up, but were so hot and sweaty upon arrival that we literally had to immediately take a shower. (Which by the way, does not come with any soap or shower gel to wash your body. The owner does NOT provide any amenities and that includes basics like soap!! And we called him & he explained that he will not provide soap, shampoo, conditioner, body lotion or coffee pods for the Nespresso maker because this is an apartment you’re renting. Instructions (& soap) from the train station would make this a 5*. It is absolutely a necessity to do your research on how to take the local bus the train. As an FYI - from the train station (Lugano Stazione), take the #2 bus (platform B across from the train exit) towards Castagnola, Capilinea, & press the stop for S. Michele (when you’re almost there - which stops right outside the front door of the apartment). Otherwise you’ll be pushing luggage up a 45 degree incline for kilometres. The Prosecco left in the fridge for us was a beautiful touch & much appreciated. A beautiful, relaxing place to visit !! We’ll be back !!

Unbeatable view

The apartment was easily accessible from Lugano town centre either by bus (2) or by foot. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, however you will need to remember to bring shower wash and shampoo. We loved the view from the terrace at all times of day and night. The Olive trail is close by and provides spectacular scenery alongside the lake. We can recommend Aqua and Farina for pizza.

Phenomenal view!!

If you are in Lugano for the scenery this is an exceptional place to stay. View wise it has a great panoramic view of the lake where you can see central Lugano but also the surrounding towns. It has good public transportation access but is also completely walkable if you aren’t in a rush. The quarters themselves are pretty basic, the sofa was super comfortable and the shower had great water pressure. We don’t typically spend a lot of time indoors while traveling so it was ample for our needs. If we had stayed longer I might want a bit more space. The owners were very helpful and accessible on the phone when trying to locate the building. I will say the VRBO map shows the address as Via S Giorgio 41 which is not accurate. And S Giorgio is one of those fun roads that is a bit like spaghetti so we hiked up a long way from where the building is actually located. It was fine and don’t think this is the owners fault but maybe something VRBO needs to correct. All that said, the place was perfect for our needs, there were fireworks one night and the view was ideal. We enjoyed relaxing on the terrace soaking up the views every chance we got. Thank you for allowing us to stay and we would absolutely return in the future!!

Gorgeous view of Lake Lugano

This flat is exactly as pictured. Bed was surprisingly comfortable, extremely comfortable. The walk down to the lake was also picturesque and had beautiful ferns, flowers, palm trees. Bus stopped at the foot of hill and we had no trouble walking to the building which was secure, quiet, and stocked with essentials. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony, watching sailboats and sunsets. We are over 60, in pretty good shape, and walked to Lugano Center every day and to Gandria the last day. Just beautiful place. Loved the lighting over the bed to read at night.

Outstanding view!

This property is an excellent choice for staying in the Lugano area. The view alone is worth it, but the apartment is very well maintained and has what you need to cook, etc. The view is great so we had dinner at the apartment every night to watch the sunset on the lake. It's a bit of hike down into town, but only takes about 10 min. Fortunately there is a bus that runs frequently to take you back up the hill. The owner provides cookware but not anything for cooking so be advised that there is no coffee, sugar, olive oil or anything you would need along those lines. There was salt and pepper. Towels are not provided for swimming in the lake so you will need to bring that as well or go to Lido where they provide it. There is a significant upcharge if you need anything extra, for example there were only 2 bath towels provided for an entire week and when we requested a couple more, we were told it would cost 20 euros to have someone bring it by. All that being said, these are more inconveniences, as the apartment itself and the location and view are awesome. I do highly recommend this place as a great vacation stay!
