Fabulous villa with private pool set in beautiful garden overlooking the lake

Magnificent 4 Bed Villa with 500m2 garden and a private pool for up to 10 people. This exquisite Villa is situated just to the North of Mennagio in the fabulous Golden Triangle area of Lake Como and has outstanding views of the lake and mountains It is relatively secluded while within walking distance of village restaurants and amenities. There are spectacular walks from the villa into the mountains and the lake is a short 100 mt walk passing a small vineyard and church.

The Villa (the pink house is Villa Perla)

Ground Floor

Large dining kitchen that is the centre of life at Villa Perla! Equipped with everything you would expect of an Italian kitchen, Listone Giordano oak floor, copper Smeg accessories, Alessi crockery, De Longi coffee machine and much more. Prepare a fresh coffee or yummy Italian food while gazing out the window at the lake.

The living room is opulently attired with two comfy sofas, an antique sideboard that used to live in the famous Turnberry Hotel in Scotland and some lovely Italian lighting. This room stays cool in summer and is cosy in the cooler months and is a great place to curl up and read a book or watch a movie. Newly fitted in 2023 with a Listone Giordano oak floor.

First Floor

There is a large family room with a super comfy king bed and a single bed if required. It has a very large wardrobe with internal drawer storage for those who cannot travel light! The view from this room is breathtaking and you will find that it is difficult to drag yourself out of bed, get some coffee from downstairs and drink in the view!

Kids - we have the best room for you. The second bedroom on this floor is equipped with a bunk bed and optional single bed. This is where my nephews hole up when they stay with their special dog light and ostrich picture. What's more it is right beside the shower room so no long journeys to get to the toilet! New sofa bed for 2023 with lush velvet cover.

The shower room has been fitted with a rain shower big enough to get a couple of kids in at a time or to indulge yourself. There is a beautiful slate sink (another piece that used to live in the Turnberry Hotel) and some lovely Pecksniff toiletries. New slate floor fitted in 2023.

Second Floor

As you come up to this floor you will spot the lovely chandelier that lights your way (you cannot miss it!) this used to grace the entrance to the Turnberry Hotel and is one of the main features of the villa.

The Master bedroom has arguably the best views in the Villa with vistas of both the Lake and the Alps. The Super King bed is enormous and fitted with a Tempur mattress that creates sleeping bliss. The wardrobe has journeyed from Tuscany to London and then onto Lake Como and, along with the beautiful local terracotta floor, gives the room a really traditional Italian vibe.

The second bedroom on this floor has twin beds with a view to the Lake and Pool. The furniture in this room has a French feel and is complemented with a beautiful herringbone wood floor.

The family bathroom has a very rustic feel with exposed beams and a cleverly hidden washing machine. There is a bath with a traditional shower and again this room is equipped with some nice toiletries. New ceramic parquet design floor fitted in 2023.

The Gardens

Outside is a veritable garden of eden with lemons, oranges, apples, figs, cherries, olives, walnuts, kiwis, plums and apricots all appearing at different times in the year. There are 2 seating areas in the garden, one with a beautiful view of the lake and another under a pergola covered in Wisteria.

In spring the garden is a mass of colour with azalea and wisteria while the late spring and early summer brings out the masses of jasmine, oleander and hydrangea. The autumn and winter produce some lovely colours and are a good time to get the lemons off the tree!

There is a large BBQ to feed 10, with 2 pizza stones, outside for some al fresco cooking if you can drag your self away from the kitchen.

A beautiful locally sourced stone path will lead you to the pool area which is also surrounded in the same materials to give this a very traditional and inviting feel. The pool itself is 10mt x 4.6mt and is equipped with 6 sun beds and is open from May to September. There is a shower at the edge of the pool and we provide you with pool towels so no need to take up space in your luggage!

The Area

The Villa is located a 2 min walk from the lake and it's position affords practically lakeside accommodation but without the drawback that some other properties have with traffic noise.

Santa Maria is a small village just north of Menaggio. It has a small supermarket, a pharmacy, a bank and 2 local restaurants that are accessible on foot via the fabulous Via Regina. One is awesome for Pizza the other for the fresh pasta (they only make it to order). There is also a beach area with a beach bar that serves food and drinks and has an area to dive into the lake should this be your thing.

A short walk along the beach will bring you to Santa Maria Rezzonico where the restaurants are located. There are also a couple of lovely beaches here and a labyrinth of little roads to explore.

The walks from the villa are beautiful with the famous Via Regina at the bottom of our garden. Following this path will take you to Aquaseria at the next little village that has a fabulous local shop selling both local fruit and veg alongside local olive oil, wine and beer! There is also another great pizza restaurant here called Creme Caramel that is worth a visit.

The town of Mennagio is only 7 mins away by car and has many fabulous restaurants and facilities

Villa with a view
The Villa Perla was delightful. A quirky mix of the old and new.Good kitchen facilities for a group of 8. The bedrooms were stylish and the living room offered comfortable seating for everyone. The garden and pool were superb and very fully used during our stay. The owner was very helpful when we had a query and the issue was immediately resolved. ( Thank you Suzanne and Bianca). The Vrbo helpline was also very efficient. The star of the show however was the magnificent view of Lake Como from every window in the house….absolutely superb. It would have been helpful if on arrival there had been a sign at the top of Via Piano indicating the downward direction to the villa as we did have some issues locating it as there is a short walk down and uphill to and from the car to the property and be prepared for a bit of a hike to drop off rubbish prior to departure. We would thoroughly recommend this beautiful property with some of the best views we’ve seen.

Mooi huis en goed zwembad
Het huis was groot en van alle gemakken voorzien.Echter de kerk begint elke dag om half 8 met 50x de klok te luiden en dan gewoon ook nog elk halfuur en heeluur, dus uitslapen is er dan niet echt bij, dat is een nadeel. Je kan niet met de auto komen, mits je een 'kleinere' auto hebt dan kan je er komen om te laden en lossen. De auto moet boven geparkeerd worden, echter de locals parkeren er ook waardoor je soms nog een laag hoger moet om te parkeren, dat is wel nadelig. Je moet dan wel de berg oplopen dus ben je slecht ter been en heb je een grote auto dan is het geen aanrader. De tuin was (toen wij kwamen) niet gedaan waardoor er over de paden in de tuin veel planten overwoekerd waren, deze hebben we grotendeels zelf maar weggehaald.Het prieeltje in de tuin is erg mooi, maar in onze tijd volledig dicht gegroeid, en dan met de muggen zeker niet ideaal. Verder is de keuken voorzien van velen gemakken, dus kruiden, bakblikken, bakpapier oid hoef je echt niet mee te nemen. In de inventarislijst staat dat er een ijsmachine aanwezig is, dit is echter een ijsBLOKjesmachine. Let wel op dat je deze eerst schoonmaakt, bij ons zat er nog schimmel aan de binnenkant. Daarna deed deze goed zijn werk en was het een aanrader om te gebruiken. Op de foto staat een koffie apparaat, echter deze is inmiddels vervangen, want er stond een andere, een nespresso machine, dus denk erom als je koffie wilt meenemen van thuis ;-) Zwembad was ook netjes en groot genoeg! Uitzicht is geweldig. Aanrader

Traumhaus auf den 2. Blick
Wunderschön gelegene Villa mit ein paar Mängel. Die Villa liegt etwa 100 m vom See mit traumhaften Blick aus jedem Zimmer. Mit etwas mehr Liebe und Pflege ein Traumobjekt. Küche war ordentlich ausgestattet mit wunderschönen Zugang zur Terrasse (neu). Großer Garten mit eigenem Pool war sauber aber Leiter defekt. Schöne Loungeecke vorhanden aber Polster schmutzig , trotz Abdeckung. SAT TV wie beschrieben nicht vorhanden und Router war beschädigt. Parkplatz nur öffentlich, 100 m vom Haus wenn zufällig einer frei war. Reklamationen wurden schnellstmöglich erledigt. Allgemeine Sauberkeit 😒 Fazit: mit ein wenig mehr Interesse am Objekt und etwas mehr Kontrolle ein fabelhaftestes Ferienhaus das dann seinen Preis wert wäre.

Marvellous house with private pool and lake view
A fantastic experience. The house is really charming, very well equipped, spottless, and functional. Fits very well for 9 persones. The garden is stunning, we have enjoyed breakfast and dinner surrounded by beautiful fruit trees, it was a real pleasure. Suzanne is very helpful and cares a lot about her guests and her house. Highly recommended.

Excellente adresse pour un groupe d'amis ou une grande famille
Nous avons apprécié notre séjour à Santa Maria Rezzonico . Nous mariions notre fils à Lenno et avons pu facilement rayonner de Santa Maria tout en bénéficiant d'une maison d'un jardin/piscine calmes et reposants. L'interieur est confortable , tout en hauteur . Nous avons craint à la réservation des chambres trop petites mùais ce n'était pas le cas . Nous sonsiellopns à la propriétaire d'etre plus claire sur cet aspect. Un regret: l'impossibilité d'approcher notre voiture, un peu trop large pour le chemin d'accès. Mais le parking n'est qu'à 100 m. C 'est juste un peu fatigant à larrivée et au départ.
