We two grandmothers, seeking adventure the beginning of November 2011, saw the site for Michela's villa. However, we needed something closer in town and were able to book the apartment in town. Michela met us at the train station, walked us through town ,introduced us to landmarks, several proprietors of restaurants, the Monastero gardens, etc. The apartment was just what... More

Upon arrival by train to Varenna, we took a 10 euro cab ride to Villa Michela; we were totally exhausted after a 9 hour flight and then a train ride with no air (this was in the midst of an unusual heat wave of near 90). Our arrival was in a tiny piazza with atmospheric old buildings and winding, narrow... More

Michela is wonderful and tries very hard but truthfully I felt it was overpriced for the room and not having an ensuite. As others stated, its NOT in Varenna and a very difficult drive to get there. We had a car but I can't imagine what a pain it would be if we didnt have a car. If you are... More

This is our first stop in Italy and it has been even better than expected. After a long 24 hours of traveling by plane, train and automobile we arrived at the lovely Villa Michela. Michela provided us with a wonderful welcome as we sat on a balcony taking in the views with fresh fruit and vino! Our room was perfect... More

We stayed at Villa Michela for a couple of nights at the end of August with our three year old daughter. We had a great time! Michela is a perfect hostess and took great care of the three of us. The room and views were just as expected. We warmly recommend Michela's B&B to all.

During these three nights we managed to get ourselves lost on a mountain shortcut after which Michela came and rescued us furthermore since there where four of us... More

We spent three fantastic nights at Michela's lovely home and we wanted to stay longer. The location is perfect with wonderful views over the lake. The rooms were lovely and evenings were spent sipping wine on our balcony watching the sun set. Michela is the perfect hostess, providing us with a welcome cooling drink on arrival and a then a...
