About this property

Lugano Horizon Retreat

Cozy apartment in Bigorio, nestled in the peaceful Capriasca area and surrounded by the natural beauty of Ticino. A bright double bedroom with large windows and breathtaking mountain views, a warm and comfortable living room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a bathroom with a shower. A perfect retreat to relax, breathe in nature, and enjoy an authentic stay among forests, silence, and enchanting alpine landscapes.



At the entrance of the property, there is a self check in key box, ensuring a quick and convenient arrival. The keys to access the apartment are stored in the self check in box, and all necessary instructions will be provided at the time of booking. The apartment is equipped with all the essential comforts for your stay. Thanks to the strategic location of this wonderful home, you will enjoy an unforgettable holiday.

Bed and bathroom linen is provided in the property and is charged based on the actual number of guests staying, at a rate of 13.70 CHF per guest. This system is an advantage for guests, as you only pay for the linen actually used, rather than for all available beds regardless of occupancy. We provide high quality professional Swiss standard linen, carefully washed and hygienically cleaned at high temperatures to ensure maximum comfort, cleanliness, and safety throughout your stay. A baby cot with bedding and duvet is available upon request and for an additional fee. The extra cost is 50 CHF per stay. The tourist tax will be paid separately once the booking has been confirmed.

We kindly ask you, before check out, to leave the used towels in the bathroom and the bed linens on the beds as a courtesy for our cleaning service. Before leaving the apartment, please make sure to switch off all electronic devices (TV, lights, etc.) and check that doors, windows, and balconies are properly closed and locked. Smoking is not allowed inside the accommodation. Smoking is permitted only in the outdoor areas.
