I recently had the pleasure of staying at the most perfect location for the end of my trip. The accommodation was truly exceptional, offering stunning views and luxurious amenities that made my stay truly unforgettable. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. I couldn't have asked for a better place to conclude my travels. I will definitely be recommending this location to all of my friends and family for their future trips.

We loved absolutely everything about this place. The room was excellent, very clean with beautiful views, the breakfast was perfect and the whole area was just magical. Nic and Julia were so lovely to our family and made us feel at home. Nic gave us great advice about activities nearby and we definitely recommend hiking through the forest and going to the beach (about 15min). The dogs, Zoe and Zeppola in particular, were also a huge highlight for my kids.

Giulia, the host, is an angel on Earth. I did experience some unexpected health issues and had to stay in Sant'Anna for a week instead of a day. Little did I know that I was the best place for it - Giulia and Emilio gave me rides to and from doctors, helped translate and navigate the situation while abroad. They literally took care. of me and a very complicated situation with zero problem. The place has wonderful healing energy and a stellar view and sunset. Sometimes Nic is around, who is an amazing chef and will create magical food out of nowhere. I cannot express my gratitude enough for this place and people. No money in the World could justify the care and support I received. Please stay with them, they are truly the best!!!

Giulia and Emelio were super welcoming, fetching us from the airport, preparing a fabulous lunch, with aromatic herbal tea with a dramatic and expansive view of the river and the vast nature conservation area below. When our daughter fell and hurt herself, requiring medical attention, they immediately jumped in and called around to check for best options. Emelio escorted myself and our daughter to the hospital, translating from Italian to English. When we are back in Milan, we will most definitely book here again, and this time make sure that we have enough time to explore the large property, running down to the expansive river, with chestnut trees and blueberry bushes dotted between the rich natural greenery.

This was an absolutely fabulous stay; I can’t recommend it enough!! We were greeted by Emilio in the evening and he made dinner reservations for us at Castigo where we had an amazing meal. The view from the balcony overlooking the river and the mountains in the distance were beautiful. Emilio and Margaret met us for breakfast - she stayed up until 1am baking fresh blueberry mini Bundt cakes for us and he made us fresh scrambled eggs and offered Greek yogurt with tasty granola mix for my partner who has a dairy intolerance. Margaret came back from working the blueberry fields before breakfast with freshly picked blueberries and raspberries! We plan to return and spend more than just 1 night next time. The room was cozy, but in a good way - we don’t need much room and the decor was wonderful (cast iron headboard and decor looked really nice) and the bed was comfy. The bathroom is part of the bedroom but that didn’t bother us one bit. Emilio pointed out a room that had a huge glass window facing the river and mountains - it was already occupied but we will reserve it next time for sure!

Um,… Leaving was the worst part of the entire experience.

1. Accommodation was clean, spacious, and modern 2. The beds were the most comfortable during a three-week excursion through Switzerland, Northern Italia, and Southern Italia. 3. Fantastic showers with great water pressure and hot water. 4. Air conditioning was very comfortable in all the rooms and worked excellently. 5. The owners were some of the kindest and most gentle people you could ever hope to meet. In fact, they made the stay beyond exceptional. These are the type of people who you wish you could visit every day. They are positive, loving, kind, positive beautiful people. 6. If you thought the rooms were great, the land around the buildings is something you see in photo books. You will not believe this oasis in the middle of a suburban metropolis exists. It takes you away to a peaceful place where you can truly relax and reenergize.

Nothing could have been better. Best place we have stayed in over 10 years of annual trips to the country.

I just loved the beautiful nature around the property. Familiy was very very friendly and helpful. The pick-up from Malpensa was so helpful. Their dogs were adorable. The room was very cosy, the breakfast was excellent with homemade blueberry jam and pie. I practiced yoga on their terrace, which was so nice. I highly recommend their place if you love nature and appreciate genuiness.

The people. Guilia and Amelio were out of this world. Went above and beyond to make us comfortable and immediately felt like friends. The location. Beautiful property overlooking blueberries, water, the Alps. The rooms. Everything was clean and just what we needed. Comfortable for our family of 7! The breakfast. What a treat! Delicious breakfast, loved getting to try the blueberries! This will be a forever memory!

Well located, really nice hosts. Unfortunately our flight was cancelled so we had to leave early to drive to another airport, so we missed the beautiful countryside and walk. Will stay there again for sure if needing reasonably priced commendation close to Malpensa airport. Our room was clean and comfortable and reasonable for the price. The hosts are very nice and friendly and the driver they suggested came to pick us up again the next morning on time at 3.30am.

Emilio’s estate was exceptionally beautiful inside and out. The location alone was our main seller, with mountain views just minutes to the airport. This along with their warm hospitality, comfortable beds, sharp appliances, clean facilities, and charming furnishings made it the perfect getaway. We wished to stay longer! Thank you Emilio and family. Now we know where to stay next time!
