Villas in Castelveccana

The kitchen was one of the best-equipped kitchen I ever stayed in. It was small, indeed, but it has all the implements one could wish for and even some spices. Though not equipped with AC, there were portable fans available on both levels and the windows all had insect meshes so one could leave them open for some air circulation. The place was clean, including the the bathroom. The beds were a bit on the firm side. There's a seating area under the trees across the gravel driveway; there's also a table on the top balcony and the evenings are pleasant. The house is one of a group of 3 connected houses and it's the one in the middle; the group is the left-most one towards the street. The neighbors on either side are nice and quiet. Parking is in front, though the main access door is in the back (see photo -- the house is the one with the motorcycle in front). The town's main area and promenade is but 5-10 minutes walk away, and there's a mini Carefour some 15-minute-walk up the hill.

Staying at Villa Poseidon is truly a wonderful experience. The house is very modern and equipped with the latest technology, including a retractable awning, automatic shutters, and a hot tub. It is spacious and has an incredible lake view with a private beach to boot. I highly recommend the home. Porto Valtravaglia, the nearby town, is a quaint sleepy town with incredibly friendly people. It is a small town, yet it has access to ferries during tourist season.

We had to go to a hotel in a nearby city. We were given the wrong garage key at first and had to go back to park the car. That said, the front desk people were lovely, and all was fine after that. The best thing about this place is the view. It's absolutely wonderful. It's also quiet. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is small but has everything you need. There is no AC so it gets really hot during the day -- however, with a fan and the windows open, it was cool. It was very cool for sleeping.

The peaceful location, emerged by nature, spacious, complete and lovely hosts.
