Beautiful vista
La Torretta is a clean, quiet and a basic IKEA- decorated apartment with a beautiful view nestled on the side of Lake Como. Petra and Luigi are great hosts and very helpful. There is not much of a town in Carate Urio but there are many towns around it.The 2 of us found the apartment comfortable enough for us but I am not sure more than 2 people would find enough seating. The balcony has an unobstructed view of the lake but that is because you have to climb 70 winding steps to get to the apartment. My feeling is that this apartment is best for the fit and fearless: fit because you have to climb 70 steps up and down and fearless because you have to drive winding, narrow mountains roads to get there. However, when you are drinking your Aperol Sprtiz overlooking the lake, it is worth it.

Wunderschöner Ausblick auf den See
Wir haben unseren Urlaub in einer wunderschönen Wohnung bei sehr freundlichen Gastgebern verbracht. Die Wohnung ist sehr modern eingerichtet und hat alles was man braucht. Auf der großen Terrasse und auf dem kleinen Balkon kann man sehr gut entspannen. Ein reservierter Parkplatz gibt es auch. Wir kommen gern wieder!

Fantastisch uitzicht
Locatie is mooi maar stond niet vermeld dat je vanaf auto stuk naar appartement moet lopen en dan in appartement 70 treden de trap opmoet. En een airco zou in de zomer erg fijn zijn want ja erg warm in het appartement. Uitzicht vanaf balkon is wel fantastisch!

Traumhafte Wohnung mit mega Blick
Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in Carate Urio. Die Fewo war super und noch schöner als auf den Fotos. Sehr modern und neu und man hat sich sofort wohl gefühlt. Man muss einplanen, das man viele Treppen steigen muss. Aber das ist ja generell so in den Orten am Comer See. Die Vermieter waren super nett und wir haben sofort Auskunft auf unsere Fragen bekommen. 👍👍👍

Ferienwohnung mit toller Aussicht, netter Umgebung und Como um die Ecke
Die Ferienwohnung ist ganz neu eingerichtet, guter Standard, deutlich über dem, was man sonst in Italien so sieht. Sehr nette Vermieterin. Der Ort selber offenbart erst bei einem Rundgang zu Fuß seine Schätze in Form von alten steinernen Gassen und schmucken bis heruntergekommenen Villen. Auch als Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen in die Höhe geeignet.

Location idéale
Tout est positif. L'appartement est beau, propre, rien ne manque. La vue sur le lac est superbe. Une place de parking est réservée aux locataires (c'est un gros plus car il est difficile de se garer à carate urio). Les échanges avec les propriétaires sont fluides et agréables. Nous recommandons sans hésiter ce logement ++
