Villa Le Fontanelle: Home to Celebrities

Present owner of this magnificient Villa is Russian millionaire Arkady Novikov who bought it in 2008 for a price of 33 million Euros.
It was previously owned by Gianni Versace from 1977 until his murder in 1997. Before his death, celebrities such as Sir Elton John, Sting and Madonna were guests in the building.
Since the death of Versace, only American singer Jennifer Lopez and her husband Chris Judd spent their honeymoon there. It is not open to the public but can be viewed from the lake.
The Villa itself "Le Fontanelle" was originally built in 1776 and owned prior to Versace by the Cambiaghi family. Versace purchased this magnificent villa in 1977 and completely refurbished the property ay huge expense. He restored the elegant neo-classic style true to their original design and Versace supervised every element of the restoration and furnished the villa personally.
Question is: How much money are people ready to spend for this luxury Villa? Yes they are more than ready! Yes, Villa has its own history to tell... , but 33m€?!? Wooow!

"A wonderful place to stay at! The house itself and the view from it!!! The small square was really nice with 2 bars, ice cream parlour and even a vinoteca. And restaurants within reasonable walkingdistance. Everything worked just fine like the contact with Liana who helped us with the luggage on arrival. So many places to visit in the close area too! We hade a fantastic week in Montevecchia! Linda & Erik"

"Our stay was lovely! Hosts were great and extremely responsive and helpful. The views were awesome. If you're accustomed to driving on tiny roads, having a rental car would be perfect as groceries and food options are generally in other towns. There are a few hiking trails in Brienno that take you through the old part of the town with deteriorating buildings which was very cool to see. Great place to stay!"

"Good place with a marvelous view! Nice pool and tenniscourts. Great host!"

"This property checks all the boxes for a great trip to Varenna and to explore Lake Como. It is in an ideal location, central to restaurants and shopping and close to the ferry docks. It was incredibly clean and well appointed with nice details, like coffee and basic herbs and spices and plenty of other amenities to make the stay comfortable. We spent hours sitting in the loft, taking in the view as well as exploring the town and other towns in the Lake Como are. Communication with the hosts...

"Corona is a charming village high in the mountains outside Lugano. We loved our stay in this spacious and comfortable house. It has a spectacular view of the mountains and Lake Lugano. The village has a charming church, shops, many ancient houses, a few hotels, and a large swimming pool open to the public. Nearby are hiking trails in all directions. It is perfect for a family vacation."

"Wir hatten 10 schöne Tage in Poppino, die Wohnung ist großzügig und sauber, in der Küche fehlt nichts, die Toiletten und das Badezimmer sind gut ausgestattet, der Blick vom Balkon und der Dachterrasse ist traumhaft. Die Zufahrt ist eng, aber auch mit dem VW Bulli ohne Probleme machbar, der Parkplatz hinterm Haus ist groß genug. "

"Very lovely house, nice swimming in the lake and the village on walking distance. And a very nice neighbour Nicole."

"We had a fantastic week at this charming house. It had everything we needed as a small family. The lake is on your doorstep so it’s very easy to walk down for an evening swim. Would highly recommend. "

"We absolutely loved La Sosta! Everything was perfect…better than we could have imagined! The house was immaculate, ample storage & amenities, breathtaking views, a true escape."

"We loved the location and cleanliness of this property. The owners live next door and were able to give us some guidance on getting around the town. We felt very safe and comfortable throughout our stay."

"Awesome, stunning mountain and water views"

"Sehr schön gelegenes Haus in lebendigem, sympathischen Ort. Das Haus ist geräumig und gut aufgeteilt. Wir hatten beide Wohnungen für zwei Familien gemietet. Gemütlichkeit ist nicht die Stärke des Hauses, bequeme Sitzgelegenheiten (Sofa, Sessel, Liegestühle...) für alle Gäste gemeinsam gibt es weder drinnen noch draußen. Draußen gäbe es auf dem Grundstück leider auch keinen schönen Ort, wo man sie aufstellen könnte. Die Küchenausstattung ist äußerst dürftig, teils in schlechtem Zustand (blechiges...
