“Fabulous villa with lots of funky spaces to chill!”
+Fabulous villa for family or friends to share. We had 3 generations and my 87 yr old mum found the lift up to the villa a godsend as was the en-suite bedroom with disability accessible shower and toilet. All rooms had air con which was needed during a heatwave. The whole place is spotless and tastefully furnished. Kitchen well equipped and there was plenty of space around the large dinning table. The garden was beautiful with lots of shade and the pool was much needed . The villa is close to lots of amenities such as a bakery round the corner and lake beach five minutes away. Riccardo the owner was very helpful and sourced a wheelchair for only 20 euros hire per week. We loved everything about this villa and highly recommend it and the area Dongo! So pretty and much less touristy. You can hire a boat and drive up the river to Como and the sires around without the crowds!
−The only slight thing is the traffic noise - we live in a very small place in Devon so we’re not used to traffic, but I wouldn’t let this put you off

“Grazie!”
+The place was very clean and comfortable. Even nicer than the pictures! Location is very good, if you want to use ferry or bus on your trip. Riccardo helped us with everything and gave us tips for our journey (e.g. nice taxi driver).
−The recycling of the waste was a bit complicated and there wasn't a working recycling system inside the house.

“Home away from home”
+Our stay at this stunning villa in Dongo was absolutely perfect, both for our group and for friends who visited! The location was ideal - steps away from a charming bakery where we enjoyed fresh croissants and bread every morning. The convenience of having everything within walking distance made our stay effortless - restaurants, shops, and the beautiful Lake Como promenade were all just minutes away. The thoughtful host Riccardo provided us with two bikes, which were perfect for exploring the lakefront and making quick trips around town. The garage came in handy when a friend visited us with a car. The villa itself is incredibly well-appointed. The spacious, sun-filled rooms allowed our group to spread out comfortably while still having plenty of communal areas to gather. The modern amenities made life so convenient - the washing machine was a huge plus for longer stays, and the heating system kept us cozy during the cooler nights. Each bedroom was generously sized, providing everyone with their own private retreat. We loved the grill area even if we didn't use it but we had some meals outside, where we enjoyed many memorable evening dining together. The kitchen was well-equipped
−Everything was perfect.

“Visit Dongo and stay at Casa Emilia for the most wonderful holiday!!!”
+Such an amazing villa!!! The host was wonderful, easy to communicate with, quick with response and super helpful with answering questions!! The town of Dongo is a little quiter but I would actually reccommend highly! We were a group of 26-32 year olds and we found the town was perfect for our needs! Easy access to other parts of the lake, wonderful places to swim, great restaurants (La Luna was our highlight), rich history, nice bars (Birreria Tre Pievi was fab) and a wonderful market every Thursday in the square! The villa is perfect! So much space for us all, great rooms each with their own theme, and plently of bathrooms!! They had bikes we used to go explore and a pool!! (The pool is very cold but we actually really enjoyed it)! The kitchen was great. Lots of fridge and freezer space! Note that there is no oven but we didn't find that we needed it at all!! Coffee machines and a kettle, as well as hob and microwave. At the back of the villa is the most amazing cafe that sells beautiful cakes and breads for such cheap prices! The Villa is right in front of a bus station and 5 minutes from the Ferry. Couldn't rate this place more highly

“Geräumige Unterkunft mit tollem Gastgeber”
+Riccardo ist ein sehr toller Gastgeber. Bei Problemen oder Fragen hilft er sehr schnell und unkompliziert weiter. Die Unterkunft ist sehr geräumig und sehr gut ausgestattet (Küchenutensilien und Geschirr und überall Klima). Die Lage ist perfekt: nur ein kurzer Fußweg zum Comer See, zur nächsten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten oder zum flanieren an die Promenade. Die Unterkunft ist direkt an einer Hauptstraße, somit hört man den Verkehr. Die Schlafzimmer sind jedoch auf die Rückseite ausgerichtet. Alle Fester sind mit Rolläden und Fliegengittern ausgestattet. Das ist top.

+Das ganze Hause ist sehr gut und so einige Einrichtungsgegenstände im Retrosyle dekoriert und eingerichtet. Was uns super gefiel. Es hat alles was es für einen Urlaub braucht. Die Küche mit Kaffeemaschine, Toaster, Wasserkocher, Mikrowelle und Geschirrspüler ausgestattet. Genügend Geschirr und Besteck. Im Keller eine Waschmaschine und Fahrräder zum benützen. Der Garten gross und mit genügend Sitz und Liege Gelegenheiten. Auch reichlich Sonnen und Schattenplätze. Zudem grosser Pool. Parkplätze ca. 4 Stück. Auch Riccardo sehr zuvorkommend und nett. Auch auf WhatsApp sofort reagiert.
