Our family of 7 had a fabulous stay in Lake Como at Villa Poletti. The website and other reviews were accurate - it was what we imagined and we had a fabulous stay. Some of the best nights were relaxing on the terrace watching the sunset and the great view of the lake. It took a little time to get boat, bus, walking times down, but once we did everything was very smooth. The views from all the rooms are unforgettable. We loved our short walk (getting a little exercise everyday) to the main part of San Giovanni to catch our ferry to Bellagio and fell in love with cappuccinos, croissaints and local food selections at NeNe. The walk to Bellagio was also good exercise and mostly a beautiful path where you only had to be on the busy road for a short time. We have already recommended the Villa to our friends and will definitely be back ourselves.
