Zeer goede ligging , leuk zwembad, prachtig zicht. Maar de airco werkte niet in 3 van de 5 slaapkamers, er waren maar 7 goede stoelen voor een huis met een capaciteit van 11 personen, aan een tafel voor maximum 8 personen, de afstandsbediening voor de ingangspoort en de garages werkte niet. 1 koffielepel voor 11 personen. Anders zou de emo helemaal positief schijnen.

This was a clean, spacious and comfortable rental. The view from the balcony was amazing. The flat (apartment) was in great shape, with a welcome package when we arrived. Overall, a really great rental. We would definitely go back.
JanineReviewed On: 01.08.2013
Firstly the most important thing to say is we had a great holiday. The starter pack was much appreciated but the info left in the villa was misleading; it would have been helpful to know we could have done a full supermarket shop down the road toward Porlezza on Sunday rather than just saying that shops were shut on Sundays.
Best Wishes,
CharlotteReviewed On: 12.08.2012
Thank you for such a super stay this summer! We really enjoyed staying in Villa Bianca! It wasn't totally secluded but it did offer beautiful lake views and plenty of all day sunshine from its hillside location. The kids loved the private pools and I have to say we were very impressed by how well-equipped the villa was, which surpassed our expectactions! David and I were very impressed by all the villa's mod cons and luxury touches, which really helped make our stay so comfortable and great. Th... e golf club was very nearby and the lakeside centre of Menaggio was also an easy drive away! We really loved exploring Lake Como and also Lugano for a more cosmopolitan feel. Thank you HHH for a really super-duper holiday! Show more FinnReviewed On: 07.07.2012
Our holiday villa was just beautiful! Staying here felt so exclusive for us - it really topped our time!
IvanReviewed On: 15.06.2012
Villa Bianca Grande was very convenient to drive to the Golf club and also the central lake. We were big fans of the two swimming pools and entertaining and relaxing areas. A very chic and contemporary retreat! Thank you Happy Holiday Homes for your service! We will certainly come back to look at buying.

A fantastic holiday for us! We named it the Fun House :) Luxury pools, gym and views! Thank you HHH!
ZaraReviewed On: 15.07.2012
What a fantastic holiday villa! It offered everything we'd expect from a luxury hotel! We wanted to either be in or nearby Menaggio, so Franco and I could reach his family easily throughout our stay. Our children really loved the outside pool and we thought the views towards Bellagio were just breathtaking. The garden was south facing so basked in all day sun. The inside of the villa was super modern and comfortable. Franco liked working out in the gym and I must confess I did more wine drinkin... g and sunbathing than exercise! There was an indoors pool also, which i'm sure would be perfect for a winter break here! I would just like to say that some of the shallow steps etc could be a bother if you have very young toddlers. Saying that all our children were fine with them. I thought the open plan layout to the kitchen and living room was really stylish and family-friendly and it flowed really well out onto the lake view balcony terrace. Loved the chic outdoor furniture too! We drove here which is advisable because of the hillside location. The main road leads from outside the small residence to Menaggio and Lugano, so it was very accessible for reaching all the lake attractions. Thank you HHH for a fabulous stay!
