Catia’s place has a spectacular view of the lake and is very conveniently located. Riva di Salta is a small town with a few bars, gelateria and restaurants. The town centre is a few minutes walks from the apartment. We enjoyed swimming at the local beach in Riva di Salta and there are some great local walks (information in the main town square). There are some ferries from Riva di Salta (although more regular if you drive to Lovere or Sarnico). Catia’s place was clean and basically furnished. The main negative is that the bed was not very comfortable. Overall we had a fantastic time staying at Lake Iseo - compared to our stay at Lake Como it was much quieter and had a more local feel.
