Our Stay in Corona

Corona is a charming village high in the mountains outside Lugano. We loved our stay in this spacious and comfortable house. It has a spectacular view of the mountains and Lake Lugano. The village has a charming church, shops, many ancient houses, a few hotels, and a large swimming pool open to the public. Nearby are hiking trails in all directions. It is perfect for a family vacation.

Amazing

Amazing, quit and relaxing casa. On top of that with an incredible view over the mountains and the lake. People in Carona was really nice, gentle and helpful. It’s a perfect stay for a family with kids. Our kids loves it and did spend a lot of time with the available toys inside and outside There is a great public swimming pool near by that the kids loved really much. The communication with Marco was really perfect and Marco prioritized our questions with quick response every time. We would definitely come back. Bs Ahmad Fendy and family

Entspannung und Abwechslung in Carona

Das Haus liegt ausgezeichnet, sehr ruhig, mit gepflegtem Garten und schöner Aussicht. Wir haben erholsame und abwechslungsreiche Ferien im Casa Dolores genossen. Wir konnten aufs Bike steigen und direkt vor dem Haus eine schöne Tour starten. Weitere Touren haben wir mit den Angaben aus den Ausflugtipps geplant. Wir hätten uns auch jederzeit an die Gastgeber wenden können. Der Kontakt war unkompliziert, sehr nett und zielführend. Für uns hat alles bestens gepasst. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Très beau séjour dans la casa Dolores

La maison est très agréable, bien équipée et d'une propreté impeccable. Le mobilier de la terrasse couverte a été renouvelé (photo 10), une belle et grande table de jardin et chaises permettent de déjeuner et dîner à l'abris tout en profitant de la vue magnifique sur le lac et les 2 plus hautes montagnes qui le bordent (Monte Generoso et Monte San Giorgio). Beau jardin, endroit très calme... repos garanti.

Wunderschöne Urlaubstage

Wir haben die Tage in der gemütlichen Casa Dolores in vollen Zügen genossen. Das Haus hat eine wunderschöne und ruhige Lage, der Garten ist herrlich und alles in sehr gepflegtem Zustand. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und wurden von den Gastgebern bestens betreut. Wenn es überhaupt etwas am Urlaub zu bemängeln gab, dann, dass wir von Hand abspülen mussten :-) Aber das hat die Urlaubsfreude nicht wirklich getrübt. Herzlichen Dank liebe Familie Sangermano für die Gastfreundschaft! Liebe Grüße sendet Familie Bernhardt-Wölz PS: Wir freuen uns beim nächsten Mal auf die Siebträger-Maschine ;-)

viel Tolles und Sachen, die uns nicht so gefallen haben

Tolles: - sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber (Kein persönlicher Kontakt, aber per Whatsapp) - viele Outdoor- und Indoor-Spielsachen für Kinder, sogar eine (Baby)Schaukel - Kinderbett, Hochstuhl, Wickeltisch, Kindergeschirr, etc. alles da - gut ausgestatte Küche - schöne Aussicht Sachen, die uns nicht so gefallen haben: - keine Mückengitter vor den Fenstern - kein Geschirrspüler, keine Mikrowelle (aber dies ist aus der Beschreibung ja auch ersichtlich) - Heisswasser in der Küche kommt erst nach knapp 10 Minuten - viele Spinnweben und viel Staub (vor allem unter und hinter dem Sofa) - alte Küche, altes Bad, veraltetes Mobiliar (ausser Sofa) - wenige Steckdosen, Steckerleiste mitnehmen! Allgemein: - Carona liegt für Ausflüge und den Einkauf nicht ideal. Man muss meist zuerst nach Lugano runterfahren. Der Weg dauert knapp 20 Minuten und ist extrem eng und kurvenreich. - das Freibad ist zu Fuss circa 10 Minuten entfernt. Die zwei Kinderbecken sind etwas lieblos gebaut und voll in der Sonne. Die Liegewiese ist schön und viele Bäume spenden Schatten. - Carona hat einen sehr kleinen Lebensmittelladen, der das Nötigste bietet - das Restaurant "posta" ist sehr zu empfehlen. Nicht gerade günstig, aber sehr lecker - während unseres Aufenthaltes war es sehr heiss, auch im Haus Fazit: Ein in die Jahre gekommenes Haus, das Kindern aber viel bietet.
