5 stunning villas on Lake Como where to spend the weekend To enjoy a relaxing and glam holiday with a unique view

The smell of wisteria climbing on the gates, gardens in bloom with hedge mazes, the sound of waves made by boats crashing on the shores, the sun reflecting on the blue waters of the lake, the light breeze moving your hair while you taste ice cream. There is something fascinating, timeless and deeply relaxing which attracts millions of visitors to Lake Como every year. As in a postcard from the past, every glimpse tells of an Italy frozen in time made of good food, elegance, decadence, nature, similar to the one that loved to depict Hollywood in the '50s. 

Not just ancient mansions. The Palms's Villa is the best place for those who prefer a more modern, clean style, but always equipped with all the comforts: from the living room to the three bedrooms, from the laundry to the solarium where you can soak in the lake and the wonderful view of Como. 

From €399 per night.
