Our stay at Villa Melody couldn't have been better. The property was immaculate, well appointed, and beautifully positioned for ultimate privacy with an incredible location right on the blue waters of Lake Como.
The grounds were stunning, with multiple gathering spaces including the lower and upper gardens, the sun deck over the water, and the side patio and the upper veranda.
The location off the main road created a sense of complete privacy and peace, but we were still a short drive from Menaggio and San Siro, both of which were also easily accessed by walking (40 minutes to Menaggio walking, 15 minutes to San Siro).
The kitchen was very well appointed with high-end appliances, cookware, utensils and dishes plus abundant glassware for drinks of all types.
There were very nice televisions, but we didn't use them.
The side patio with built in fireplace/grill was a fantastic place to gather, cook and eat.
Both upstairs bathrooms had great showers.
The beds were very comfortable and supportive, and the air conditioners performed well.
About the only thing I would change would be higher speed on the internet.
The walk up and down the steep sloped stone ramps to get to our car was no problem for our group, but could be challenging for someone in poor physical shape.
The third bedroom is very small with limited storage, but this was not a problem for us.
We hope to return to Villa Melody in the future!

Location, location, location!! We couldn’t have found a better place to stay. Situated in the prettiest area on the lake. Accessibility is great, but you have your own very private oasis. I couldn’t be happier with my choice.

The pictures do not do it justice. Gorgeous views of the lake in all rooms. Super private and quiet away from the crowds. Make sure you leave a day or two to just relax and enjoy the many balconies at the villa. We also enjoyed making pizza on the patio pizza oven. Car is recommended as 15 minute ride to mennagio

Amazing Property
This property is amazing and deserves top ratings but, for the same reasons it is so unique, it has some issues which are also unique.

Amazing Villa!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wish it was longer! This villa has the best views of the lake. The interior of the home was really nice. The A/C worked very well and there was plenty of hot water. These are issues we've had in other vacation rentals in Italy.
The exterior was really nice. The drawback is that there is a steep path to lead up to the car. However, I see that as a fair trade for this kind of seclusion.
When we were there, the wifi did not work. Our devices were connected to the router but there was no internet connection. We also had a really hard time finding the property. The address we were given was nearly a mile away. We talked to locals, tried to call all the phone numbers and either didn't get an answer or it said they were not connected. When we reached out via the chat, we were told to call the numbers (which we already did) instead of just giving us directions. We ended up finding the home on our own. An easy fix would be to add detailed directions to the home in the chat feature of the app. We paid a premium for this stay and I felt like we did not have a premium experience at the beginning. After this issue, we were very pleased with the rest of the stay and would stay here again.

Outstanding villa
Not the easiest place to find even though the directions were outstanding. It is tucked away on the side of the mountain right DIRECTLY on the water. Expansive property with every amenity you could ask for. It is one of the best properties We have stayed at. I will say it’s not something for little children or people not mobile as it has long ramps to reach it with steps. But if you want an UNBELIEVABLE property with no one in sight you need to book this place. We WILL be back.
