We enjoyed Stresa very much. This apartment is a very good location, across from the super market, between two piazzas, and 5 gelato stands. Yvonne was very kind, showed us everything we needed to know. answered all our questions, and most important the apartment was very clean, we hope to visit again.

Stresa Apartment

The apartment was close to many restaurants and shops. It was also easy walking distance to the ferry terminal and tourist information. Just across the street was a grocery store. We had a lovely time in Stresa and found the apartment to be just as it was advertised.

Perfect

Wonderful spacious apartment in the heart of Stresa. We enjoyed every minute of our stay in this apartment. Close to everything with a supermarket straight across the street. Yvonne was a fantastic host, answering our questions promptly and even picking us up at the train station. Couldn’t find a better host, thank you Yvonne. The apartment has everything you need including a washing machine. There’s a lift to get you up and down to the second floor. We would highly recommend this apartment and would love to have had more time in Stresa. Kind regards Rhonda and Wayne.

Relaxing stay in convenient location

Communication with the owner, Yvonne, was great. Before we left, she looked up the train from Florence and let us know that the train route would be under repair, so taking the train would be much more complicated and take much longer, Thus we rented a car. She told us they had free parking but it was small so we made sure to rent a car that fit. It was very hot, and I contacted Yvonne about another fan (no AC included) and the next morning she brought one over. The apartment was very clean, spacious and bright; we did not cook while we were there, but it was great to have a full size fridge and freezer and a microwave. I loved sitting on the front balcony to relax. Beds were comfortable. It was great to use the washing machine. Location was wonderful, grocery store literally across the road, gelateria and main square a few steps down. The lake is perhaps a 7 minute leisurely walk down the same street. Despite everything being so close, it was very quiet. We enjoyed having coffee and croissants at Jolly cafe just beyond the square and eggs and “English” breakfast at a place nearby on the lake. The restaurants in the square were all tasty, and a drink place on the same street was perfect for a cool drink. Walking along the lake in the evening was peaceful. We walked to lovely Park Pallvicino and drove to Orta San Giulio on Lake Orta. Taking the the boat to Isola diPescatori was worth it for lunch on the lake and shopping. A very relaxing stay! We hope to return. Thank you!

Hervorragenden Lage in einer tollen Gegend

Die Wohnung liegt für Unternehmungen in der einzigartigen Umgebung wirklich perfekt. In wenigen Minuten ist man am Hafen und kann den Linienverkehr mit dem Schiff nutzen, um die wichtigsten Ausflugsziele zu erreichen. Auch eine Bushaltestelle ist dort. Sehr angenehm fanden wir, dass der Supermarkt für den täglichen Bedarf sich direkt gegenüber der Wohnung befindet.Die Wohnung ist sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet; alles ist neuwertig. Die Lage im Ortskern ist natürlich mit einem erhöhten Geräuschpegel bis in die späten Abendstunden verbunden, aber die Fenster halten einiges ab, und das Schlafzimmer ist nach hinten gelegen und ruhig. Im Haus selbst war es gelegentlich etwas hellhörig.Yvonne hat uns alles gut erklärt. Sie wirkt sehr freundlich und professionell. Insgesamt haben wir einen sehr schönen Urlaub verbracht und hatten dabei auch großes Glück mit dem Wetter.

Très agréable appartement en plein centre de Stresa

Très heureuses vacances de cet appartement situé idéalement pour toutes les visites ,la restauration ,les courses sans prendre la voiture. Garage petit dans une rue commerçante pas toujours accessible mais très apprécié pour notre petite voiture que nous n’avons d’ailleurs pas beaucoup sortie . Appartement très bien équipé, très propre ,une belle superficie avec un petit balcon bien agréable . Nous avons eu très chaud mais heureusement l’appartement est traversant équipé de ventilateurs . La propriétaire est gentille et très accessible si besoin . Pas de point négatif. . Je recommande .

Sympatisk og hjælpsom vært, fin lejlighed og god beliggenhed.

Meget hjælpsom og sympatisk vært, der ventede på os da fly var forsinket. Lejligheden var ren og velindrettet og med en virkelig god beliggenhed. Den lå centralt, 5 min fra restauranter og sø promenade og dog var der stille og roligt om aftenen og om natten. Kan varmt anbefales.

Excellent location

Just a few minutes from the town centre and lakeside you are ideally placed for visiting the town as well as days out. Property was expansive with loads of room, well equipped kitchen and a quiet bedroom. Early morning street noise can be heard in the lounge but you won't hear this in the bedroom. Small street-side balcony means you can watch live go by below.
