Spectacular lakefront views with large balcony (Patria) apt. W full kitchen, large bathroom and roomy bedroom with adequate queen mattress. Sabrina had it nicely prepared for our arrival though she was unable to welcome us as we arrived after 2:30 pm. She left details requested regarding walkable restaurants and ferry transportation which was very helpful. We stopped at a grocery store in Como to stock up for our 3 night stay not knowing the extent of food necessities and goodies awaiting us provided by Sabrina. (Bread, juice,milk,coffee, tea, butter, water bottles, yogurt along with lots of breakfast cakes and croissants AND A CHILLED BOTTLE OF SPUMANTE. Such a pleasant surprise. One side note, we used Expedia and the main door entry code was erroneous as the last character is a ^ not a v. Sabrina was quick to respond when we shared that the fan remotes were ineffective due to dead batteries. Hopefully You will enjoy your stay here as much as we did. We will return!😎

Amazing place to stay for our first trip to Como! We got lucky and were able to park right in front of the property every day. Had a balcony right on top of the water. It was a bit rainy and cool when we went but I’m sure in the warmer months it’s amazing to lay out on the dock and hop in the water for a swim. FYI did have a bathroom across the shared hall but not big deal to us as it was our own private bathroom. The host was very professional and helpful and answered all of my questions quickly! Would absolutely come back!

Wow, Wow, Wow. What a place to stay. We were met by Sabrina the host, nothing was too much trouble. The room and its view is something you can normally only dream of. Stunning. There were many little extra touch like cakes, milk, coffee biscuits etc available to us. It’s only a 300m walk into the town, where there are a few bars and restaurants, but it’s also where you can catch the ferry to anywhere on the lake. For example the trip into Como was just over 20mins. This place is highly recommended, do yourself a favour, stay here!!!

We stayed in December 2021, Sabrina was very attentive and met us at the door, giving us a quick tour & all the necessary information. We had a parking space right outside the front door. We stayed in a room overlooking the Lake, it was immaculately clean & warm with everything you could possibly need, the shower was hot and powerful, the bathroom was spotless with towels, hairdryer etc. The kitchen was equipped with every utensil & appliance, we ate out every day but did have a coffee for breakfast. The ferry port is 2 minutes along the Lake as are a few restaurants. The view from our balcony was fantastic, right over the water, we can't wait to return and we tell everyone about La Darsena!

What a relaxing getaway! Wonderful casual atmosphere with amazing views with access to the water. After exploring the towns of Lake Como all day, I came back to the house and sat on the deck over the lake. Perfectly quite and peaceful. The hostess was more than accommodating, pleasant and helpful with local sights and treasures to find. Room was perfectly clean and comfortable. Best way to get to and from is the water take from Como.

Awesome Lake Como B&B
Our stay in Moltrasio was wonderful! We loved our room with wide windows that opened to let in terrific breezes and a beautiful balcony over Lake Como. The fan in our room was excellent in keeping us comfortable. We had free use of a full kitchen and cooked some of our own meals to enjoy on our balcony. Our room was very spacious and the view was outstanding! We took a train to Colico, then walked to a ferry station nearby.and took a ferry to Molrasio. The walk to the B&B is about 10 minutes from the ferry, and does not have sidewalks all of the way, so you must walk close to the sides for a few minutes. The walk around town in amazing, but requires a lot of steep stair climbing. There is a terrific gelato shop up at the top to reward the climb! We took a ferry to Como to do our grocery shopping and use an ATM.
