Lake Como’s Most Beautiful Villas
For Two Thousand Years, Lake Como in Northern Italy, Has Been Described as One of the Most Beautiful and Romantic Places in the World.

The Legendary Villas of Lake Como:
Villa D'este, Timeless Beauty Lives Here
For Centuries a Residence of the Aristocracy – Princesses, Marquises, Sultans and Tsars. And Since 1873, an Elegant and Charming Five-star Resort; One of the Most Celebrated in the World.
One of Italy's Iconic Properties, Villa D'este Occupies a Superb Renaissance Architecture and an Enviable Spot on Lake Como, Amid 25 Acres of Luxuriously Landscaped Park.
This Renaissance Era Palace on the Shores of Lake Como, is a Portal to Another World, Built in the 16th Century by Cardinal Tolomeo Gallio in 1568 as His Own Residence.
The Impressive Appearance of Villa D’este, Which is Characterized by the Traditional U-shape, Keeps Many Traces of Its Renaissance Splendor.
However, Both the Villa and the Surrounding Park Have Been Changed Substantially Compared to the Original Construction.
Today the Villa Stands as One of Italy's Most Luxurious Hotels.

One of a Kind Historic Villa in Laglio, Como Italy
This 27,000 Square Foot Home Nestles Up Against the Lakeshore of Lake Como Providing Unobstructed Views of the Water and Mountains.
A 35,000 Square Foot, Multi-tiered Italian Garden, Complete With Balustrades and Well-manicured Hedging, Surrounds the Villa. Towering Trees and Creeping Create a Sense of Drama. And the Patios Dotted Throughout the Landscape Make for Perfect Spots to Dine Al Fresco.
This Four-level Home Boasts Seven Bedrooms and 17 Bathrooms.
A Plethora of Arched Windows Allow for Magnificent Views From Nearly Every Room.
Much of the Design is a Crisp White Accented With Elegant, Gilded Ornamentations on the Wainscoting and Crown Mouldings.
But the Focal Point of the Interior is Surely the Graceful Staircase That Sweeps Up to Each Level.
