Lake Como Vacation Rentals


Renting a villa or apartment instead of staying in a hotel is quite fantastic.  How often do you think to yourself, I just want to hang out in the hotel tonight?   These days I want several things out of a vacation.  Seeing the sights is certainly part of it, but having down time to just relax is essential.  Having a villa or apartment can afford you so many options of how you want to spend your time.  Whether you want to have a relaxing afternoon on the balcony reading your book, or cooking up some of great finds from the local markets with some friends or just the luxury of making a cup of tea without having to call room service or go out somewhere, you can’t beat the freedom of a villa.   But where do you start looking?   Below is list of villa and apartment rental sites that I would recommend for Lake Como.   Of course there are many more, but this will give you a good place to start.  Be sure to look at my page of “tips for renting villas and apartments” if you are feeling a little unsure about what to look for.

www.varenna.net - This is the site for the Hotel Albergo Milano, but they have 2 apartments that they rent out that are listed on this site.

www.rentvillas.com - they are great for many areas all over Europe.  They have listings at all budgets. 

www.vrbo.com  - This is a great site. Many times I will see listings from this site on other sites but because it is directly through the owner, it can be a little cheaper.  They also have a rental guarantee.
