Great views and complete setup

Marco was a great host, and Casa Mara is an enviable home. Made for a great week in Varenna to relax right by the water. We even made a couple of meals in the kitchen rather than going out every meal, and the kitchen setup was fully stocked with everything we needed. Thanks for the bottle of wine too!

A week in Verenna

We loved everything about it this beautiful apartment, the check in process was so lovely, Paolo and Mara are very accommodating. The local restaurants, deli, bakery and grocery store are perfect. We had amazing weather so spent time out on the water and exploring the surrounding areas. As a family of 5 we loved the different areas in the apartment and how close it was to the water, shops and restaurants. We will miss this apartment and Verenna as we stayed for a week we got to know the locals and relax and enjoy the area. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay!

Amazing Varenna Experience

It was so wonderful to stay here! Truly felt like staying in the home of your favorite Italian family. Everything was perfectly ready for our arrival, including Paolo meeting us at the train station to show us the way. The location in Varenna is the best, with a 5 minute walk to the ferry, 10 minutes too the train station and 3 minutes to excellent restaurants. I would absolutely stay here every time!

Best Views in Varenna

When we arrived in Varenna Paolo and Mara met us at the house and went over everything with us. They even took my son-in-law with them when they left and showed him where the best restaurants were in Varenna. My son-in-law even came back with an amazing bottle of wine compliments of our hosts. We would highly recommend staying here. It was very clean and immaculate. Whenever we had any questions our hosts would immediately respond. Some of the best hosts so far on VRBO!! We definitely will be coming back.

Casa Mara was everything I hoped it would be. Paolo met us at the train station and brought us to our home for the next 5 nights. The location couldn’t be better. The views and the comfort of the home made it difficult to leave. It was a short walk to the ferry and we explored many other towns along the lake, but my heart was in Varenna. Thank you Marco and Paolo for an excellent stay.

Fantastic location, view and host

Our family of five loved our stay at Casa Mara in beautiful Varenna. House is clean. Located with an exceptional view and in the heart of Varenna. Easy to get to ferry, train, restaurants and grocery. Paolo and his wife as well as their son Marco provided great communication and an easy checkin. If we were to come to Como again we not only will stay in Varenna but Casa Mara will be our first choice.

Dreamy Varenna

Verenna is a dream! And so was our whole experience at Casa Mara. Our ferry was very late and Poalo waited patiently for our party of 5 to arrive. He walked us to the apt and gave us the full run down including local restaurants that were delicious! The location could not be better-stay here! You’ll be glad you did.

A wonderful 3 week stay

Great location, great facilities. More like a home than an apartment.. Quiet and comfortably cool. Host met us at the train station and guided us to Casa Mara and made sure we were set before he left. Great place that we highly recommend. Very, very comfortable. Will stay there again on our next trip. Did not need a vehicle due to its location.

Varenna 2023

This apartment is beautiful. The craftsmanship is first rate. The large windows provide both stunning views and cool breezes. The location is excellent for access to the lake, dock, boats and ferries, as well as restaurants and gelato shops. Many steep stairs in Varenna and other towns on the lake so be prepared with flat, sturdy shoes.

Everything was perfect! I can’t imagine a better place on lake Como. Very easy to get to, centrally located and had a spectacular view. What more could you ask for? Our host was amazing! On our last day there we rented a boat for 2 hours! What a great way to see the lake! The sleeping accommodations worked very well for our group plus we utilized local bakeries for most our meals. Thanks for having us, Beth

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Military home in Varenna. We were met at the station and walked to the home by our host. He took the time to show us around the home and made sure we had clear understanding of how everything worked. The location was perfect, right int he center of town and very walkable to all destinations. The home is newly remodeled and everything worked perfectly and was beautiful. We especially enjoyed the personal touches throughout the home, the artwork and historical features. We hope to come back some day!

Grandmother, Mother, Daughter Magic at Lake Como

Casa Mara was pure magic and perfect for us all. We spent many hours in the comfortable chairs relaxing and gazing out the huge windows to the lake. We were just minutes walk to restaurants, gelato, and the ferry stop, making visits to other beautiful towns and villas on the lake easy. We were able to walk from our door to Fiumelatte, to Villa Monastero, and to Castello di Vezio as well. Paolo and Mara were warm and wonderful in welcoming us and responding to any questions while we were there, and their son Marco was wonderful answering questions in the months before our visit as we planned our trip. Our stay was perfect, truly, and we certainly hope to return.

Wonderful place to say in Varenna!

We stayed at Casa Mara for a week, and were very pleased with our choice! The description and pictures are accurate, the apartment even exceeded our expectations. It is a beautiful place with a great location in Varenna and stunning views from every window and of course the little deck. We spent part of each day on our deck, either with coffee in the morning or wine in the evening. This apartment is absolutely immaculate and beautifully maintained with a well equipped kitchen. The owners could not have been more helpful, kind or easier to work with. If you are going to Varenna, this is definitely the place to rent. We would highly recommend Casa Mara to friends, family and fellow travelers.

Picture perfect Varenna 2024

This home is a ideally situated in the idyllic setting of Varenna. The location could not be better for walking around the town. Paolo is an owner / host and was very welcoming. He met us at the train to help us with a short walk to the house. This home is 400 or so years old but was completely renovated and is stunning. The views from upstairs overlooking Lake Como are better than the photos. The kitchen was fully outfitted and we cooked in several nights. Paolo provided many recommendations which exceeded expectations. Our family is my wife and three grown children, we are typical Italian size (read not so tall or large). We could easily manage the spiral stairs and low beams upstairs, but if you are tall or not so nimble this may be challenging. Our only small comment that prevents a perfect 10/10 was that outside of the master bed the mattresses were very firm and the two futons were not able to be used by grown adults. If your trip is 2-4 adults who can share a bed you will not be disappointed. Varenna and Casa Mara are a place I would definitely return to stay again.

Phenomenal.

Where even to begin? The spectacular views (morning, night, rainy, sunny -- every moment)... the spacious and sparkling interior... the private balcony, our of sight from all below... the *perfect* location, five minutes from just about everything you'll need/want.... But above all, the care and hospitality of Paolo, Mara & Marco, who from start to finish were our dream hosts. We were so grateful not just for the clear communication throughout, but also for the warm welcome as soon as we set foot in Varenna. Paolo and Mara make you feel like family -- that the house is "yours" and that there's no other place you'd rather be. The only negative part is that we're not there still. Truly, we could not have asked for a better experience. We will be back.

Everything that Marco and Paolo mentioned came true.

Casa Mara in late August 2018 was the perfect end to our Italian vacation. We spent a week in quaint medieval San Donato Tuscany and we drove up to Varrena. Marco’s father Paolo met us at the indoor parking lot where I didn’t touch my rental for 5 days. After Paolo gave us a tour of Varenna, some restaurant advice, where the beach was, and we were on our own. Casa Mara was a perfect space for my family; daughter 21, son 30, and my wife and I. It is so centrally located it’s as if someone measured the exact distance. The view is stunning and you are literally feet from the lake. The upper deck viewing level is a thrilling place to watch the Sunrise/Sunset. We were even treated to a beautiful thunder/lighting storm one evening. I could not recommend the space and the people who own it more.

Wonderful location in Varenna

My husband and I and another couple spent one week in this lovely and very clean apartment. Paolo, the owner, was waiting for us at the tiny train station for a quick walk to the apartment. His English is very good and together with wife, Mara, and Fabio, their son, made us feel very welcome with suggestions on sites and restaurants. The apartment is in the old part of Varenna and close to the ferry dock and everything in town. Nice view of the ferries approaching Varenna from the kitchen window. Everything we needed was there. The large bathroom was great with two couples sharing and bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. Charming accomodation and we really loved our week in Varenna and ferry trips to nearby villages. Villa Carlotta is a must! Castle Vezio is worth the climb and Villa Monastero is also worthwhile. Thanks, Paolo, Mara and Fabio for making our week so memorable......Delane and Garry from California, USA

Perfect Experience

This was the best rental I’ve ever experienced. Because Varenna can be a bit tricky to navigate, Paolo met us at the train station and walked us to his home. What an amazing, friendly, gracious host. After showing us around and explaining how everything works, he left us to explore. The flat itself is amazing. Everything was clean and fresh. Beautiful rustic accents. It is obvious they love and care greatly for the home. The view of the lake, Monte Crocione, and Menaggio cannot be beat. My only complaint is we spent too much time upstairs mesmerized by the view instead of exploring Varenna! But we did explore, and the location is perfect. Steps from the lake, near shops, restaurants and gelaterias. A two minute walk to the piazza. A brisk walk to the harbor, where you can easily catch a ferry to Bellagio or Menaggio. In all, this was the perfect place to stay for our visit to Lake Como, and we would do it again in a heartbeat.
