Wonderful stay with a perfect view
Mara welcomed us in a private parking spot (VERY important in this area) with a happy smile and a lot of helpful tips (turned out there is a special gniocchi festival on August 18th!) to a very specious and equipped apartment with a very big terrace overlooking the lake! All the beds were freshly made and the atmosphere in the house was wonderful. A short walk from the apartment (281 stairs, we counted!) you’ll reach a great spot to enter lake Como, with grass and a bench, where you will join the locals for a dive to the cold and refreshing water. The location is great - a short drive to Como and Bellagio , but staying away from the crowds. The only disadvantage was the proximity to the road but there was not a lot of traffic at night. We highly recommend this apartment and Mera as an hostess

Best place ever
No review could do justice to how amazing Casa di Mara is. Lake Como is heaven on Earth and Mara is the perfect host! The property is even better than the pictures and the view is more beautiful than you could believe. Mara was an absolute pleasure to work with as she went above and beyond what you expect from a VRBO host. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend anyone planning a trip to Europe to stay at Casa di Mara!

Casa Mara for the win!
My family has stayed in alot of vacation rentals over the years and this was the best one yet. Mara met us the minute we arrived and guided me into our parking spot. She is so friendly and informative. The home was spotlessly clean, large and had everything we needed. The views were so beautiful. Bellagio was a short 20 minute drive and from there the car ferry took us across to each side of the lake. Wish we had more time to stay. Thanks Mara!

The property was much cleaner and bigger than the photoes online indicated. Mara was lovely to communicate with online and in person. She even informed us of local news that affected our plans. We sat on the large patio each evening staring at the lake. It was a great stay!

vrbo stay in Bellagio
Mara was great!!! I was upset by the location at first. I placed Bellagio as my choice to stay and when I booked this I found out it was 30 miles away up the mountain. You had to rely on the bus and it was late many times and crowded. Some people waiting for the bus had to be turned away due to the crowds. I will be more in tune to the location next time. When I book Bellagio I expect it to be Bellagio. As I said Mara was a wonderful host and her apartment was very nice and spacious!!!!

Casa Mars
Wonderful week stay at Casa Mara. Mara’s son Andrea was waiting for us even though we were late as we had missed a train. He felt sorry for us as we were so frazzled that he drove us to La Meridiana for a wonderful dinner. The apartment was soooooo spacious, the kitchen well equipped and we had Salts, peppers coffee sugars olive oils and balsamic to start the week. The very large patio was perfect for wine and cheeses. We had just debarked from a two week cruise so we really appreciated the washer and washer soaps and clothes rack/dryer on patioThe apartment was right near the bus stop and so easy to buy bus tickets either at Bar Sonia or on bus. Took buses to Como , Bellagio and then the fast ferries to Varenna and Mennagio. A short walk to right we went to small grocery that had most items needed. and Bar Sonia .I will mention you need to bring your own bar soaps and shampoos Only misstep was we had the Lake tour boat let us off at Pognana Lario ferry stop and then had to walk up hundreds of Steps to get up to street level! Do not do that!!! It was a fabulous stay at a lovely apartment overlooking the lake . Cannot recommend it enough!

We loved the view from Mara's apartment overlooking the lake Como. For people who like to hike there is an old path called Strada regia running from Como (town) to Bellagio. It passes the apartment quite near and is really nice for morning/evening walks too.

Second visit to this property
We stayed here in 2018 my wife's parents and had a great time. This year we stayed for four days during a four week road trip with friends. Maura is a super host, and the apartment is spotlessly clean, extremely well equipped and exactly as described. The dedicated parking space directly opposite the apartment is invaluable . I hope we will return.

Mara was great, and went over and above making sure we got settled and enjoyed ourselves in the Lake Como area. Her home is about half way between Como and Bellagio. Bus and ferry stops are near by, as are a couple of restaurants and markets. Her place occupies the second floor above street level, and is spacious and well equipped. Perfect for couples and families alike. The sun deck is a good place to hang and watch the world go by. Thank you Mara for being such a wonderful hostess. Ciao!

SEJOUR A POGNANA LARIO
Nadine, Alex et moi avons été enchantées de notre séjour. L'appartement est très spacieux, très propre avec une vue magnifique sur le lac pour un prix très abordable. La gentillesse et la bonne humeur de Mara ont également été un atout pour rendre notre séjour encore plus agréable. A noter qu'une place de parking est réservée pour les vacanciers venant en voiture (très appréciable). La région est vraiment très belle.

Walk up across from Clooney’s
It was very hot, humid and smoky during our 4 night stay. One nice bedroom for a couple. The second has no window and is designed for kids. Bathroom is very nice. Kitchen was very hot and had an odor. Location about half way between Bellagio and Como. Best to have a car or use the bus. Water boats too few and far between. The owner was very welcoming.

Wonderful View
This property is right on the main road and has a wonderful view of Lake Como. It’s a quiet little village with a couple of bars and mini marts. The bus is close to the apartment, so it was easy to get the bus to Bellagio and to the train station. The ferry worked too, but be prepared for a long climb up the stairs from the lake or walk down to the lake. Mara is a gracious host and the apartment has a lot of room and is very clean. Thank you, Mara!!!

Very clean, spacious and comfortable apartment with magnificent view of the lake.
Mara our host was excellent and nothing was too much trouble for her. Driving by the lake takes some getting used to as the roads are very narrow. Local restaurants are all excellent. We took one hour boat trip on the lake. It was nice to see things from a different prospective. Will recommend visit Bellagio and if you want some culture try the opera at La Scala in Milan. Thank you Mara for enjoyable stay. The Howell family from UK.

Perfect spot in serene setting
This apartment has everything you need to call home for your stay. Away from the tourist crowds of Como you are free to explore the area whether by local transportation or car Asmara provides a parking spot. The best part of the stay here was our host Mara who is wonderful. After three weeks it was the perfect spot to sit back relax and enjoy the local area. Highly reccomend Thanks Mara for a wonderful stay
