Vacation like a star at the newly built Villa Sissi. Set in the Aureggio neighborhood of the town of Bellagio—long a holiday favorite among the glamorous and famous—this luxury vacation rental boasts panoramic views of Lake Como worthy of a Hollywood set. Four bedrooms and a spacious open floor plan let you enjoy this private retreat and its lake and mountain vistas with the whole family or a group of friends.

Bask in the area’s famously mild climate on a lounge chair on the lawn or take in the views from the pool and hot tub facing the lake. A shaded terrace has a foosball table for hours of entertainment and an al-fresco dining area for relaxed meals in a gorgeous setting. Inside, Villa Sissi has all the modern conveniences you’d expect, from satellite television and a sound system to Wi-Fi.

The villa draws its inspiration from both traditional mountain lodges and contemporary Italian design. A stone exterior, peaked roof and red tile are both charming and classic, while inside, the peaked ceiling lends an airy aspect to the open-plan great room. Both the cream-colored sectional in the sitting area and the cream and orange chairs in the dining area face a wall of sliding glass doors—the television is mounted off to the side—to put the emphasis on the views. The fully equipped kitchen has sleek flat-fronted white cabinets and a convenient breakfast bar.

A white and orange color scheme lends warmth and vibrance to the four bedrooms. Relive a honeymoon in the generous master suite, which has a king bed, en-suite bathroom and lake views, and opens to a garden terrace. There’s also an inviting bedroom with two twin beds, en-suite bathroom and terrace access, and two bedrooms with king beds and a shared bathroom with a jetted tub, one of which opens to a balcony. An additional room on the top floor has two twin beds and shares access to a hall bathroom.

Though Villa Sissi is removed from the bustle of the village, it’s just a 5-minute walk from the center of Bellagio, known as “the pearl of the lake” and beloved for its delicious trattorias, must-try gelato and incredible shopping. If you have time, drive to the other lakeside towns of Lecco, 20 km away, and Como, 35 km away, for a new perspective on the scenery. You can also stop off in Lugano, 70 km away, or Milan, 80 km away. At the end of your stay, plan to return home via Milan’s Linate Airport, 80 km away, or Malpensa International Airport, 90 km away.
