Villa Crotto enjoys an exceptional position, within walking distance of the beautiful Lake Como in northern Italy. This fully detached villa - suitable for 10 people - is an ideal holiday home for a stylish family vacation or getaway with a group of friends who love luxury and Italian style. The accommodation can only be reached via several (steep) stairways. This makes the property less suitable for elderly guests, people with reduced mobility, or families with strollers. Please also keep in mind that luggage and groceries need to be carried up these stairs.
The layout of Villa Crotto (350m2):
The villa is distributed over three floors, furnished with high-quality fashionable design furniture. The rooms exude an industrial, lofty atmosphere, which is emphasized by the frequent use of shades of gray, from the windows, doors, floors, and walls to the attractive accessories. This accommodation is a masterpiece of taste that blends in harmoniously with the original rock walls and the elegant style of the villa.
All rooms have lake view except bedroom number 22-23- 24 which, however, have direct access to the garden on the 2nd floor. The rooms - equipped with very comfortable beds – are restful, partly because of the use of subdued colors. The five modern bathrooms are all equipped with a shower, sink, and toilet.
