The home was even more beautiful than the photos showed. It was very clean and thoughtfully stocked with basics to get us started. It was one of the most pleasant vacation experiences we've ever had. Paolo and Mara are excellent and responsive hosts that take great care to make sure the guests are comfortable. 10 out of 5 stars :)

This house is in the perfect location. We felt right at home with everything we needed. We were so comfortable and the views are stunning. We spent a week here and were sad to leave. Paola was very helpful with questions prior to our arrival and met us at check in to do a walkthrough. Highly recommend Casa Mara!!

Stop scrolling and book it! We stayed at Casa Mara for a week and couldn't have been more happy with the decision. The location couldn't be better, check-in was a breeze, the place was clean and cozy, and the lake view from upstairs is incredible. Add to that how helpful Paolo was in sharing advice for the area and this one is a winner. Just don't forget to get your ferry tickets early in the day like we did!

Absolutely fantastic stay. From initial communications to personal meet and brief by Paolo made arrival process welcoming and thorough. The location was perfect for travel in or away from Varenna. The kitchen was well stocked with snackies and a welcome bottle of wine. The loft overlooking the lake was a fabulous retreat after a day exploring the lake. Can’t recommend highly enough.

The villa is just the right size for a couple or small family. It’s perfectly located in Varenna and easy walking distance to everything. The owners are wonderful, met us to take us to the property and provide several nice amenities. They also checked in on us to make sure we were okay and provided several options for things to do and places to eat. Would highly recommend if you want a true Italian experience.

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!

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!

Absolutely brilliant
Lots of communication with the owners before our stay meant we were met promptly & shown around the property which was great. he gave us tips on where to go & what to do, the property was beautiful, really central with a well stocked kitchen & bathroom in case you forgot anything! little extras make the difference & we really enjoyed staying here from morning coffee on the balcony to evenings watching the sunset / thunderstorms across the lake. Quiet location, probably the most beautiful ever! nice restaurants, cafes ?& great ferry service to visit other towns.

Beautiful and clean property, great location
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 was simple and easy. We are already thinking about how we can return.

We stayed at Casa Mara for six nights with our son and daughter-in-law and two young grandchildren. Our hosts Paolo and Mara greeted us on our arrival. (Paolo met us at the train station and guided our walk to the apartment.) They could not have been more gracious as hosts.
The unit is beautiful and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed cooking dinner and dining together at the large kitchen table and time spent relaxing in the loft watching boats on the lake and observing the ever changing landscape of clouds and sun and mountains out the large picture windows.
The location in the heart of old Varenna was perfect - a short walk to the water, the piazza, ferries, restaurants, groceries, bakery and playground. We enjoyed the Villa Monestero and Villa Cipressi a short walk away and a hike up to the Castello de Vesio. Daytrips to Managgio and Bellagio were easily done by ferry. We arranged with a local taxi driver - Monica - to take us to our family cooking class high above Bellano. All worked out very well and made for a relaxing, memorable stay at Lake Como.

Casa Mara exceeded our expectations ❤️
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.

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

The property was as good as the pictures were and even better. The windows upstairs was just brilliant, as we sat there every evening with glass of vine and music enjoying the view. Best Tv ever. Varenna is a beautiful town. Lot to do. We will be back.
