Relaxing time
Our host was very helpful. She was there to greet us when we arrived. She showed us how things worked. She went over boat time tables and things to see in the area. It was a nice roomy apartment ; we enjoyed our time in Stresa. A nice place to unwind and get away from the crowds

Peaceful lake interlude
What a lovely property. Really helpful owners who live next door. A bit of a walk to the train station and the main part of Stresa but beautiful to sit out on the balcony in the evening looking at the garden.

A Week in Stresa
The property is very nice with a very large living room and a very large bedroom. The bathroom is renovated and modern. The kitchen is too small and there are not enough counter spaces to work on if you wanted to cook which we did. It really needs an update. The other drawback was it's location in that it wasn't in the centre of town. It wasn't too bad but it's quite a climb to get there from town. The car parking was okay but on a steep hill also, The balcony is small as well, so you couldn't really sit out.

The perfect base for exploring beautiful Lake Maggiore
This is a large and very well equipped apartment within easy walking distance of the centre of Stresa. Owners Giuseppe and his daughter Enrica were the perfect hosts - friendly, generous and obviously very keen to ensure guests enjoyed their stay. There was a beautiful garden which guests were welcome to use and which provided both sun and shade. Giuseppe kindly collected us from the Alibus stop and took us back at the end of the stay which was a great help. Gloria’s supermarket nearby was small but had an excellent selection and the young ladies who run it were very pleasant and helpful. We would definitely return to stay at Casa Belvedere should we return to Stresa in the future - thank you Giuseppe and Enrica

Great holiday
The apartment was bigger than we expected from the internet pictures and a great place. Although it is a little steep from the lake it isn't that far. Great location especially for train and boat trips and then lovely lakeside walk to the town centre with good number of shops and eating places. Great bread shop too, by the piazza. Guisseppe and his daughter are very obliging and eager to give lifts. Wonderful holiday

Comfortable apartment in Carciano
Guiseppe & his daughter were very welcoming and the apartment was well equipped. It was well located for the Lido ferries & the cable car. The walk up to the apartment could be quite challenging for anyone with a low level of fitness. It is quite steep in places. we had a lovely stay.

Excellent apartment. Nice, informative, owners
The apartment is neat, clean and very well stocked. Location is quiet and tucked away in a nice neighborhood about a lovely ten-minute walk away Stresa. An excellent little grocery is a block away and there's a wonderful restaurant right down the street. All in all a very good experience. Giuseppe and his daughter were helpful and attentive. We were picked up at the train station and taken to the apartment.

Quiet and spacious apartment, a good base for visiting Stresa and the islands
We received a warm welcome with Giuseppe meeting us at the station and driving us on a tour of Stresa. At the end of our stay he also kindly drove us down to the bus stop for the Alibus to Malpensa airport. So we had no need to carry our luggage and we did not hire a car, though, if we had, parking was free nearby. There was an excellent shop 3 minutes' walk away, open every day, serving bread, charcuterie and cheeses, as well as other basic groceries. Five minutes away there was also a friendly restaurant and bar at the Centro Sportivo, La Cascina, where we ate very well. To reach the Lido with access to the boats took us 20 minutes walking( downhill ), whilst a useful bus stop for other lakeside towns, and for Lake Orta was about 15 minutes. So we had easy access to transport and amenities whilst being away from the bustle of Stresa. The entrance hall to the building is elegant, large and secure. The apartment was very spacious, clean and beautifully furnished with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. We used the balcony off the kitchen for our breakfasts and many evening meals. It had a very pleasant outlook over the garden, which was also available to us.. Fiamma joined her father to show us all the tourist information provided and offer advice. Our delightful hosts were available throughout the holiday should we need anything.

Lovely apartment and friendly hosts
We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment, it was clean, very well equipped (they also provided us with a cot and highchair) and a good size for our family (two small children). Location is good (decent small shop nearby and a short walk down the hill into town). I'd be very happy to stay there again.

Very helpful caring owners and a well equipped apartment
We had just four nights in this property in Stresa and we left feeling that we wished had booked a little longer. Guiseppi is a really lovely gentleman and so helpful. He picked us up from the railway station and gave us a little tour of Stresa pointing out where most things were, e.g. the main shopping centre, the embarkation point for the ferry and the cable-car point. We were grateful for the lift as the apartment is uphill from the town, not too far away, but too steep when carrying suitcases. Guiseppi also transported us back to the station at the end of our stay, for which we were most grateful and he also gave us a little memento of our visit to Stresa too. While we were in Stresa we visited the three off-shore islands, which are an absolute must-see visit. On another day we ascended the mountain behind Stresa in the cable-car and the chair-lift to the very top where there are wonderful views over Lake Maggiore and then in the opposite direction another fantastic view of the beautiful snowy peaks of the Alps. Coming down to the mid-point of the change station of the cable-car we visited the Alpine Gardens which was another marvellous experience with even more fantastic views of Lake Maggiore. The apartment itself is well equipped, with cooking utensils, washing machine and plenty of space and storage for clothes if you are staying for a longer period that we did. It was lovely to have the balcony overlooking the splendid garden and this was our favourite place for eating our evening meal. A local shop just two minutes walk away sells everything you need if you are self-catering, fruit, vegetables, bread, cakes etc. This shop sells delicious home-cooked food. A local lady cooks pasta dishes and gorgeous puddings which are sold in the shop - so no need to go out to eat in a restaurant because this is quality food. The apartment was very clean and comfortable in every way. We would certainly go back to this apartment if we decide to visit Stresa again.

Beautiful, secluded and peaceful apartment
This is the perfect apartment for a family stay. We stayed with our 1 year old, the high chair and cot were provided which the family had made up with bedding and soft toys; ideal! Giuseppe and Fiametta were incredibly welcoming and friendly as were all the local people in Carciano. It’s a short walk down Via Paradiso into Stresa, and the view lives up to its name. There’s more than enough to see and do locally, although on peak days the local tourist hot spots are incredibly busy. The balcony is an afternoon and evening sun trap and looks out onto a private garden which you have access to, and includes childrens’ toys. We had a relaxing and very enjoyable stay!

Nice apartment, friendly owner, lovely place
Our family stayed in Giuseppe’s apartment for 4 nights and we really enjoyed our stay. The apartment is very nice, clean and comfortable, it has a balcony overlooking a lovely garden. Everything necessary was provided, including a lot of tourist information. The apartment is situated close to the Mottarone cable car and ferry boats, which go to the famous Borromean islands and nearby towns. There is a small supermarket and some restaurants close to the apartment. A larger supermarket is within a 25-minute walk. Giuseppe is a very friendly and welcoming host, he picked us up from the railway station and showed us around the neighborhood. We would highly recommend this place and would like to thank Giuseppe for his hospitality.

Great apartment, friendly hosts, quiet location
We stayed at this apartment as a family of four with two young children and had a very nice time. The flat is clean, well-equipped, spacious and with a beautiful garden out in the back which guests are allowed to use. It's a ten-minute walk to the lido to catch boats to the island and the funicular up to Mottarone, and about 20 minutes to the centre of Stresa. Convenient parking close by, friendly hosts. Highly recommended!
