we stayed 2 nights at yoko & paolo's house in the lakeside village of morcote. it's an unforgettable place, the house is beautiful, a few centuries old but completely redone with taste and a japanese touch, from the living room there's incredible views on the lugano lake and a garden where you can have breakfast while looking at the mountains reflecting in the water beyond the tiled roofs of the village. the room we stayed in occupies the entire top floor, it's like an attic studio, almost independent (apart from the private bathroom that is two floors below but quickly reachable). from the bedroom, small rooftop windows allowed us to gaze at the lake in the moonlight. everything was clean and well-prepared for our stay. yoko was a perfect host, she came to pick us up on the lakeside piazza grande to show us the way, and made sure at every moment that we had everything we needed. then she prepared breakfast in the morning, served at a table with views to the lake. this was by far one of the best b&b experiences we've had, in one of the finest sites around the lugano lake. and with a price that was very reasonable considering the location and service. we did not get to meet paolo this time but will not hesitate to come back! thanks again!

Yoko and Paolo couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. The private room is huge - feels like you have the entire place to yourself. But even better, you get to to walk down the 400 year old house stairs to wonderful conversation with their beautiful family. We've stayed in the winter, which we found beautiful. But we'd like even more to come back in the summer to take the SUPs out on Lake Lugano! Definitely recommend!

Yoko and Paolo are incredible hosts with an amazing home. They went out of their way to pick me up and drop me off at the nearest train station, write down suggestions of activities (Yoko is a local tour guide), provided a wonderful breakfast on their beautiful patio overlooking the lake, and very important for me as a female traveling solo - they checked in with me to ensure my safety. On the other hand, if you prefer less interaction, the bedroom is on the top level of the home and private. They and their children are kind, interesting, and knowledgeable about the gorgeous area of Morcote. I will remember my stay with Yoko and Paolo forever and hope to visit again!

I didn't know before but, I have to say, this was my first real Airbnb experience! Usually, hosts are only subletting their apartment but Yoko&Paolo are hosts with heart and soul, taking care of all your needs as a tourist and always offering something that you might need: A bike when it is sunny, a ride by car or a cup of tea, a great movie collection when it's raining or a unique Japanese gourmet meal experience on the last day before leaving. Living in the same house as the family and enjoying their company was very joyful and pleasant. Thanks a lot!

Many hospitable, lovely people gave us lots of information about the area and were offered us a nice room and the breakfast is wonderful house with spectacular views of Lake Lugano, our beautiful area and the hosts gave a bunch of information Thank you

Palo and Yoko are the best host we havr ever met. They are helpful and gave us many suggestions for our trip. The room they provided is big and cozy. The bed is great that we sleep well. Yoko provided us with mother-like breakfast and great japanese dinner. If i would back to lugano, this must be our first choice.

Paolo & Yoko's place is gorgeous, dripping with character and is located on an exceptionally cute street in an amazing location. They were extremely friendly and welcoming hosts, so we would give their place our highest recommendation.

Very positive. Hosts are very nice and attentive. Picked us up after we missed the bus and prepared us breakfast every morning during our 3-night stay.

Excellent spot if you want to stay out of the city. It's only 15/20 min drive from the city of Lugano. The apartment is vast and comfortable, the view is outstanding and better than on the pictures, and the terrace is big enough to enjoy it ! Our stay was delightful and David is an excellent host, attentive to all details and very reactive when you send him an email or a text message.

Really nice appartmenent with an outstanding view over the lake on a large balcony!! I highly recommend this place! Grant is really nice and friendly!! If you need anything he's very helpful! We'll come back someday for sure!

The place was great, wine provided by David was great, weather was great and everything worked as smoothly as possible! Strong buy for this accommodation at David's place!

An absolutely lovely airbnb. Fantastic view in a very charming location.  I highly recommend renting a car as it makes transportation a lot easier. Tons of delicious local restaurants and cute villages to discover.  Walking around Morcote is an amazing experience. David was incredibly friendly and hospitable as well. He explicitly explained how to get to the apartment and offered great information about the local area. I highly recommend this airbnb to anyone!

The apartment was great and the view particularly stunning. It was comfortable, homey - an ideal getaway. David was very accommodating and welcoming. We will definitely be visiting again!

Gorgeous place with the stunning views and a very welcoming host! Highly recommend it! Can't wait to come back!

Excellent place to stay, nice host, excellent flat and great view!!

It was not the first time that we booked an apartment through airbnb but this experience was for sure the best we've had so far. The apartment is just perfect, appealing and well equipped, with the delightful terrace giving magnificent view over the lake, and in best location - the small towns of Lugano, Locarno, Ascona are in the immediate vicinity. Last but not least, the adorable David who helped us in any possible way to make our stay comfortable and unique. Thank you very much, David, for everything! We absolutely recommend this place to anyone who would like to spend a beautiful time in Tessin.

Excellent location, beautiful landscape, the house stocked with everything you need! Host available, accurate and timely.

This villa IS breathtaking! We couldn`t believe our eyes. The view, the interior, the BBQ-area, little things like Netflix - just lovely! Lynda is a great host, everything went so smoothly. We would come back immediately <3

We have found a beautiful villa, just as it is described here. She was in a very clean, tastefully furnished state, even for the first hunger and thirst had been gesorgt.Empfangen we very friendly and welcoming Emanuelle, although we in the arrival to some, as agreed, belated. We all, whether young or old very comfortable and at home felt. .... We would definitely come back and can this hotel with a clear conscience.

Environment comfortable, clean, in a beautiful quiet area. The reception was super ... just like being at home. Beautiful home, spacious and bright rooms, all very practical, beautiful view. Lovely people and kind. Maximum reliability, kindness and courtesy. Strongly recommended.

My friends and I stayed here for two nights. The house is great and offers a stunning view onto the lake and the mountains. We were five people and had plenty of space. Lynda's colleague welcomed us and showed us around the house. She was extremely friendly and helpful. We definitely recommend the house and would come back anytime.

We had a wonderful time in the Riverhouse. We only stayed for two nights and everything was great. Thanks a lot!

The house is even much more amazing than described on the website! Everyone from our group really enjoyed the stay, perfect amenities, amazing views from all places. Perfect for our short weekend honeymoon :).

We had a great stay in this beautiful villa! Everything has worked great!

No swimming pool, no Wi-Fi, no clean. Good views.

The apartment is bright and clean, the view is simply stunning, both by day and by night. The pool too is really nice and clean. Totally worth a second visit

Secluded feel, yet only minutes from downtown Lugano. There's a steep, accessible hike just outside the back door, and a gorgeous view of the lake out front. Lorenzo was a great host! Checking in was a breeze, and he even helped us when we forgot Swiss adapters.

Beautiful place especially the pool and small garden. The apartment is nice, small and functional. The terrace is very nice.

A wonderful appartement with a amazing vieuw. Nice and clean and everything we needed we could find in the appartement. I recommend this appartement to everyone!!

It's a very quite chill place. Nonetheless, without a car hardly reachable. The host is very friendly.

Clean apartment with great views, we were very pleased especially with the quick reply from Lorenzo, we recommend the apartment arrange, judith, Peter and fabio

Very nice Location near the forest. Enough space for parking the car and nice Swimming pool. Great view over the lake and Morcote.

We would not hesitate to re-book. Very clean, everything you need in place and enough space. Many Thanks!

Lovely apartment with a view over the lake. Excellent location, 2 minutes walk from the harbour, where we arrived by public boat. 2 bedrooms and living room and kitchen with all amenities. Exciting garden on several levels. We strongly recommend both Morcote and this apartment!

Beautiful apartment and lovely view of the lake. Good restaurants in Morcote. Many destinations by public transport and shipping and hiking opportunities. Beautiful town!

We had a nice time at Milenas place. A good location, nice and quiet. Milena is a helpfull an friendly host

Very kind and informative host. The accommodation is located in a very nice location. Will definitely come back.

War with three girls aged 12-17 for a short trip with Milena. It was a great stay and the weather was gorgeous (30 degrees) so that we could take advantage of this place to the fullest. At the premises of the unusually large room has of course (in which we have all slept) contributed significantly to the positive impressions. Likewise, the springboard has directly, especially impressed into the water from the garage and favor. Merci again Milena for flexibility and hospitality.

Milena is a good host and the location in good. But somehow the listing was not appropriate for me and my family. This room is not private, its should be shared accommodation category. The glass dome is not covered completely and there is the sliding door which cannot be locked so there is no privacy at all for a family. Its just 4 km away from Railway station but there is no transportation (buses run only once per hour) - so this room suites only for people coming by car. No Wifi facility in the room, if required we need to go across the road and access it from Milena's private home.

good stop at out dat vond to italy. mocorte is beautiful. the room deels like a gym studio

First of all Milena responded in record time to my enquiry. She was very kind and we felt welcome even before we started our journey. The place as such was unusual, but beautiful. We received a text message one day before our arrival and were in contact all the time. The private parking right in front of the house was a great plus since parking space is rather limited in that area. Thank you once again for the pleasant stay!

This accommodation is actually a huge hall used by Milena for her yoga sessions and much more. And in summer, it's free for rent, so we were pleased to enjoy its huge space. Mainly our daughter enjoyed the huge space she was allowed to run around. It has a lake view and from the top floor, which is actually a roof of the hall we were sleeping in and allows outdoor sitting, the views are even more spectacular. The location is a quiet one, a bit distant from both villages (Melide and Morcote), there's a bus stop right in front, but there's just one bus an hour, so it's convenient to have a car. We were allowed to use Milena's private parking right in front of the house. To have a swim, Milena has offered us to use her private garden in the house down by the lake, just across the street. Milena was an excellent host, we felt like at home. She has offered us all possible support, advice and recommendations. We have very much enjoyed our short stay.

Apartment ideally located, Milena allows direct access to the lake by the garden to swim. The parking space is very valuable. Milena is responsive and available by SMS if required.

Rooms are ok. Unfortunately smoked in a room, but we went by air.

Very clean and comfortable rooms. Great location right on the lake. Very friendly restaurant staff. We had a great stay. Thank you!

Super stay. Look good value for money.

My husband and I have booked a room at Ristorante della Torre for one night. The room was described by Massimo. Small, modest, with a sink and clean. This was enough for us because we wanted to stay only briefly after a wedding party and have otherwise spent any time in the room. Checking in and out was easy. For those who want to stay only and are looking for a cheap room, this is a good solution.

Massimos offer enabled our last minute stay in morcote. The room was exactly as advertised, Massimo was very welcoming, relaxed and uncomplicated. Thanks again.

一个很好的和适当的设备。很干净。友好的欢迎。推荐的是餐厅。

Einfaches Zimmer im Restaurant del Torre. Ein- und Auschecken geht unkompliziert direkt im Restaurant. Der Preis finde ich eher hoch für ein einfaches Bett in einem schmucklosen Zimmer.

Seh nice apartment located in Morcote, overlooking the lake, well equipped, clean, furniture is new, friendly landlord - we were very pleased and will definitely return.

Beautifully renovated apartment in the midst of Morcote center in a historic building with a direct view of Lake Lugano. Just lovely! The only downside for self catering / -Innen is the barren Kitchen. but of good restaurants in close proximity there is no shortage.

We (family with two boys aged 4 and 6) spent a week at the home of Sadi in Morcote. We had a very nice time and it has almost been lacking none of our business. Both the location and the apartment itself is extremely beautiful. The contact with Sadi was always very pleasant and he always responded promptly to our messages. Sorry, we do not know him personally, since he was not on site. His brother but has taken charge of us and showed us around. We can recommend the apartment and Sadi as a landlord without restriction!

Good accoglienza.Stupendo the country. Beautiful panorama from the windows.

Sadi is very friendly, very courteous, was waiting for us and his home is wonderful! We felt a little at home. Thank you!

Excellent place to stay. Spacious rooms, amazing view and great location - the best swiss village 2016.

Great Apartment! Loved it. Very spacious and we had a great time.

The apartment is very well located. It has spectacular views. The host takes care of the details in the kitchen and in the bathroom. Thank you very much!!

Everything as described 1+

Nico is a very welcoming host and punctual. The house is very nice and consistent with the description. Time has allowed us to enjoy the garden. Nico thank you for everything!

This is a very beautiful property with direct access to the Lago di Lugano. The apartment itself is truly tiny (and you have to be careful not to bang your head sometimes), but it's very practical and well-kept with all the necessary amenities: a small kitchen, a small double bed, a small bath room. What really makes this place so amazing and special is the direct access to the lake. You can either sit on the terrace and have breakfast or you can sit in the garden or even jump into the lake. This is a perfect accommodation during summer or on warm days in spring and autumn (I wouldn't necessarily recommend it during winter though). Nico is a very friendly host, he welcomed us on the evening of our arrival and gave us all the necessary information - and when a question popped up, he always answered quickly. We'd definitely go back, it's a unique place.

Reallynice flat at the lake of lugano, really enjoyed our stay there, everything went well, early checkin and late check out! thanks again!

Apartment or Studio worth recommending. For great, fell for two days an absolute dream. Of course, we also had extreme weather luck and were able to enjoy direct access to the lake every day to the fullest. The apartment is convenient, clean and well furnished. The balcony is great for food, to enjoy a glass of red wine and the view. Nico was absent upon arrival but was vertretten outstanding by his mom. All the best, happy again.

Very very small but very very nice! Perfect for a couple

The accommodation is very clean, well maintained and modern furnishings. The location with a direct access to the lake is awesome. From the apartment you can fine to walk to Morcote, where there are very nice restaurants. We will go on holiday in Apartment Nico again.

We had a wonderful time in Morcote, the weather was perfect and we were able to benefit greatly from the lake right outside the front door. The house has everything you need, what you need is very small but nice. Nico was always approachable and everything worked out as agreed. Many thanks!

Casa Sarina is in the countryside. The stay was very nice and relaxing.

the stay in this rather delightful little rustico we enjoyed. everything was super clean, the landscape and the outlook priceless. Who diverse trails literally right outside the door and wants to have home rest / relaxation searches, is right here. highly recommended !!

A really nice, quiet holiday home in a great location overlooking the lake and mountains. Va the porch and living room are very nicely designed. We spent a very pleasant time there.

Everything was perfect .... neighbor has small dog, but not annoying. In the house everything is there what you need, kitchen well! Quiet location, beautiful view of the mountains and a small piece of the lake. Markus is very sympathetic and straightforward. Gladly again.....

Staying at home has thoroughly enjoyed it. Mark was very accessible and very helpful. The house is well equipped and the necessary basics such as oil vinegar salt etc are present. The village carona be reached from the house on foot and there are many restaurants in the area. Gladly again!

We really liked it, it was excellent. The house offers fabulous views. The house has everything you need to spend that time perfectly. Two weeks passed very quickly. The only negative is the lack of the Internet, the owner promised to solve this problem in the future. I recommend

Casa Sarina is an amazing place! Very comfortable, quiet and clean with the views of the mountains and lake! One must have a car to stay there as the mountains are steep!

The house was very attractive and clean. Fantastic views of mountains and lake. Pure tranquility as holiday development was only weakly occupied. Welcome bottle of wine on the table. Keycode we got time. After arriving already started our holiday.

We enjoyed our stay in this apartment which is very spacious and comfortable. The swimming pool is really nice, quiet even in summer period and with a great view on Lugano lake. Fernando was very kind and provided us with good advices to discover the countryside (Trekking , restaurants...). By car the Lugano lake is at 3 min, Maggiore Lake: 30 min and Como Lake: 50 min.

Fernando gave us a very good introduction to the building and the local area including maps and turist material. His recommendation of two local restaurants gave us som great experiences. Further more he was easy to contact during our stay. There is some kind of misunderstanding about the tennis court. It is in the neighbour complex, and a man living there told us that we were not welcome to use the court. It would have been nice with a little more equipment in the kitchen. There is a nice private balcony to the appartment, but the top photo of this profile is of a terrace that several guests have acces to. The WiFi was out of order during all our stay (4 days) The pool was excelent.

The appartment was great! It's very modern and has everything you need! It looked exactly like on the pictures on airbnb. The communication and everything else with our host Fernando was also excellent! We can really recommend the appartment!

Beautiful scenery and private location! Host is very understanding and collaborative - she helped us find an alternative solution to get keys due to our awkward 2:30 am arrival time. Great house! Loved it!

Best views of the lake and mountain from this house

Lovely view, very clean. Thanks to G. for help finding unit. Even with detailed directions, a bit tricky. WiFi didn't really work, could connect, but no Internet access. Again, beautiful view and great deck.

Un belissimo apartamento in un posto magico! The most amazing place I have ever been: views, comfort, location (some best Italian restaurants just 5 to 15 minutes drive), private secluded beach (one can swim naked there :)), all amenities, with terrace, fireplace and place for barbecue), hiking trails, even skiing is just 20 min away. The most famous outlet in Switzerland Foxtown is just 15 min away! Shopping, shopping for smart customers. Best place to explore both Switzerland and Italy whether one comes for holidays or business. The hostess was super friendly and helpful. It is truly a home away from home and next time I am going to stay 2 weeks minimum as there are so many things to explore: bungee jump James Bond filming location, Verzasca Valley, Lavertezzo bridge, dinosaurs museum, Unesco heritage hikes, skiing and sledging tracks, newest spa and sauna center splashespa dot ch, Italian medieval heritage and much more. And I am bringing all my family with me as there is so much place. With the engined bed sottopalco the space is used smartly. Grazie mille per tutto!

Good location with great view on Lago di Lugano. Also access to the lake from the appartement (short walk down) which is great. The area of Porto Ceresio is lovely and great to discover from the appartement.

Elenas Haus is a true beauty. From the Terrasse you can see the lake. Amazing! The flat is spacious and in a really quiet area. Although you probably need a car to get around. Walking to Porto Ceresio City Center is around 40 min.

Really beautiful! I could not choose a better apartment! Elena and kind and extremely available. The house is cozy and bright, to live with a smile. The view of the terrace: breathtaking. Located in a peaceful and quiet place, perfect for vacation or business. The only flaw: let him. You will love! Raccomandatissimo!

Nice apartement, with a really nice wiew! I can reccomand this place.

This is a fantastic location for seeing Morcote and walking along the lake. The place was very clean, Matti was welcoming, and although we only saw him once throughout our stay, this generally worked for us. The bathroom was shared with 3 other rooms so you just need to be prepared to cooperate with the other guests. Fortunately we did not find this a problem as we were flexible on time. Try to find a better parking space than we did as the multi-storey car park is expensive!

Just an absolutely amazing location. Right on the water and within walking distance of a breathtaking hike. You can't beat the beauty of Lugano.

Apartment very well located in a small typical street, seafront! Breakfast is included is very nice, friendly I recommend!

Staying with Matti was great, very clean and I felt immediately at ease. Matti was very flexible, I launched an inquiry until the day of departure. Localization is sensational, right on the lake and in the immediate vicinity of restaurants. Only without a car, there are not very many connections to Lugano. This should be watched beforehand. Matti has a bar / restaurant just 1 minute away from his home, which is also very cozy. Thank you very much Matti, I would stay here again :-)

I was very surprised that the hosts have reported only at me after I went personally in his business past. The apartment was not very clean. The host has cleared away old underwear in front of me and wiped the last dirt in the kitchen.

Morcote is a very lovely place, if you like it a bit more quiet than Lugano and the people there are much more relaxed and friendly. The house has a very nice, exotic atmosphere, and is central in Morcote, close to sea, although not directly as picture suggests. One room with nice sea view. Three bedrooms, one toilett. Bus takes 1//2 hour to Lugano, boat 40 min - boat very nice, but expensive. No possibility after 19.30 during week from Lugano back. Host can appear bit chaotic and grumpy but seems actually to be a very nice and trustworthy guy who will help you if you need.

in the old part, quiet room, very simple, self zuzubereitendes breakfast with homemade confiscated.

Matti is a caring host who speaks several languages including French. Morcote is a very pretty little village of Italian Switzerland. Matti also has a nice little pub on the edge of the lake, very good! We recommend!
