Villa Paradiso

Close to the lake, this pet-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 19-minute drive to Lake Lugano or the 44-minute drive to Varese Golf Club (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime). After you return, unwind in the garden or sip a drink on the deck or patio, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the TV and stereo. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with a stovetop, a refrigerator, and a dishwasher, as well as cookware, spices, and a kitchen island. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities include a BBQ grill and a dining table.
