Villa Aqua

On the western shore of Lake Como, in the heart of the Golfo di Venere where the water meets the silhouette of the Alps, Villa Aqua rises above Tremezzina as a contemporary sanctuary of privacy and design. 

Steps from Villa del Balbianello, the promontory villa immortalized in Star Wars and Casino Royale, this is one of the lake's most coveted addresses. Spread across 310 sqm with 130 sqm of terraces and a private 1,000 sqm garden of centenary olive trees, pomegranates and lavender, the villa is built for effortless indoor-outdoor living. A luminous open-plan living, dining and chef's kitchen, fitted with professional appliances and a Quooker system, flows through floor-to-ceiling glass onto the terraces, the heated infinity pool, and the lake beyond. 

Three ensuite suites and a versatile studio host up to 6 adults and 2 children in total privacy, each dressed with Dyson finishes and Arnica Montana amenities. Outside, Balinese daybeds, an outdoor BBQ kitchen and a whirlpool bath frame uninterrupted lake views. The private Pink Floor spa, turkish bath, chromotherapy, gym and cinema room, completes a 5-star retreat within the villa's own walls. Daily-fresh breakfast, twice-weekly linen changes, garden and pool maintenance, and on-request private chef, babysitting, and lake or Valtellina excursions come as standard. Milan and its international airports are an hour away; St. Moritz's slopes, ninety minutes. Villa Aqua is not simply a place to stay, it is Lake Como at its most private and most beautiful.
