Cima

Welcome to villa Cima, a luxurious lakefront 4-bedroom property set on the water's edge of the iconic Lake Como. Located within the 25-acre complex of the Hotel Villa D'Este estate, it offers guests the unique opportunity of enjoying the intimacy of their private villa while availing themselves of the high level of service and amenities provided by the 5-star luxury hotel.

One of Italy's best known holiday destinations, Lake Como is world-renowned for its crystal-clear water, picturesque towns, impressive waterside villas and surrounding mountains. It is the perfect destination for outdoor adventurers and stylish jet setters alike. Those looking to soak up the culture and glamour of the region are sure to enjoy the many immaculately kept gardens attached to the historic homes and palaces along the lakeside. Kept lush by the lake's mild climate, the beautiful gardens of properties such as Villa Carlotta are open to the public to explore. Meandering across the manicured lawn, admiring sculptures by Italian masters including Canova, is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the style and grandeur of times gone by. Another breathtaking villa well worth exploring is Villa Balbianello, a gorgeous property once a Franciscan monastery before being transformed into a private residence.

The lake can also be admired from its azure waters. Our concierge service can help you arrange a private boat to navigate the lake, having fun spotting properties owned by the rich and famous (Donatella Versace, Madonna, and George Clooney, among others) and visiting some of the charming towns and villages along its shore. Stop off to stroll through picturesque cobblestone medieval towns such as Bellagio, Cernobbio, Tremezzo, Menaggio and Varenna. Feel free to dive into the lake's sparkling water to cool off before sitting down to a romantic dinner of some of the best food in Italy, with the sparkling lights of towns on the far shore twinkling on the waters surface behind you. It is bound to be a day you never forget.

After indulging in all the incredible Lombardy cuisine, you are sure to want to spend a day outdoors. Many great hikes and biking trails wind their way through the surrounding mountainside. Pack a picnic and take some of the bicycles available from Hotel Villa d'Este along the lakeside road and down to one of the hidden pebble beaches. Our Italy packing list will ensure you are prepared for every possible excursion. Thrill-seekers can even experience a whole new perspective on the lake by trying paragliding off of the nearby Mount Nuvolone or booking a flight over Lake Como by seaplane to take in the spectacular scenery from above. These are just some of the most memorable things to do in Lake Como.

Based in one of the most desirable and coveted locations on the lakeshore, Villa Cima boasts a stately 650 meters in floor space, distributed across the residence's three floors. Several stylishly furnished terraces offer a serene space to sip on your morning coffee looking out over the spectacular vista or to spend the afternoon laying out on one of the comfortable sun loungers, soaking up the hot Italian sun. The desirable location directly on the water's edge allows you to walk from your villa straight into the lake's sparkling waters within a few hundred steps. In addition, the outdoor dining area with an Instagramable backdrop of the lake and the surrounding hillside is a secluded spot to spend an unforgettable evening dining al fresco with your loved ones.

The villa's remarkable exterior gives way to an impeccably furnished interior. The ground floor boasts a beautiful dining room that opens directly out onto the front lakeside terrace, ideal for anyone who loves entertaining. Your guests can dine, sip on a refreshing cocktail moving seamlessly from the stylish front room to the cool breeze of the outdoor space.
