Domus Plinii - Lake Como in Faggeto Lario, open AprilNovember.

Domus Plinii occupies a 19th-century villa on Lake Como's shoreline, originally built as a private residence and meticulously restored to preserve its period architecture while introducing modern amenities.

The property's lakefront location and classical Italian design provide an authentic Como setting for ceremonies and receptions.

Absolutely amazing place! We spent there several days in September. Not crowded with tourists, very stylish rooms and amazing facilities on the territory, own dock, ferry station very close, delicious restaurant, great staff! I can’t recommend it more! And in general for Como it was the best price vs quality combination.
