The staff really makes this hotel! It is small quiet place with a caring, friendly, helpful staff. The rest of Lake Como was overrun with tourists and staff who were tired and even borderline rude. But not at Villa Reverie! They were consistently welcoming, gracious, and respectful.
It takes a little planning to move around the lake because it is not a common boat stop, but with a little planning, all activities are possible. We went to Bellagio one day and Villa Balbiano the other. (Be sure to get Balbiano tickets online a couple of weeks ahead) We also went swimming in Bellano one afternoon and the staff hooked us up with a beach bag and towels. On a rainy day, we all needed umbrellas which were gladly provided.
Special thanks to Jessica, Matteo, David, Donatello, and our lovely server/bartender from Puglia!! Grazie Mille!
