"Paradise on earth!"
Monica's apartment is a dream place! The view is beyong amazing and the place is so quiet. The apartment was really clean and modern and the decoration was so lovely. We didn't go out to restaurants for dinner because the terrace was so spacious and had such a great view that we didn't need to head out! The flat has all the amenities you can wish for, privacy and a private garage below. The pool also has breathtaking views of the lake and Monte Isola and it is never crowded, at most a couple of kids and a few adults. This was the best holiday we have had in years and wished we had booked for 2 weeks instead of 1! Monica was a great host and left a big portfolio with maps and places to visit which was really handy. I am already planning to go back next year with friends. PS: you definitely need a car as it's a 10min drive up in the mountain and a couple of miles to reach a supermarket (Sarnico has loads) and the buses are not frequent. As for the area, it is really well located on the lake and allows day trips to other lake towns and Monte Isola. There are very few tourists which was nice and we felt part of the community wherever we went. Everyone is really friendly and laid back and the food is delicious. Our recommendations are Iseo, Monte Isola, Marone, Riva Do Solto and Zone. Check out Parzanica village up in the mountain. A little gem!
