Situated directly on the shores of Lake Como, with a private dock and exclusive lake access, Villa Cecilia is 19th-century villa that has been magnificently renovated by its owner, an Italian fashion designer, to incorporate quintessentially Italian designs.

The villa’s interior spans 400 square meters across three floors, in a seamless blend of timeless elegance and contemporary convenience, featuring a curated collection of homeware and furniture from renowned designers, architects and artists such as Fornasetti, Gae Aulenti and Roberto Minotti. The garden is accessible via a stairway, equipped with chairs and sunbeds shadowed by a century-old Lebanon Cedar tree and an Olea fragrans that scents the air with its fragrant white flowers. At the heart of the garden lies a fishpond adorned with a waterfall and a bronze statue depicting a Faun, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the splendour of their surroundings.

How to book

If you have any questions or would like help choosing, we visit our properties regularly and can help you select the best villa for your holidays.

We can hold dates for you for 48 hours while you make sure everything lines up, then you simply pay the deposit (30% of total) to secure your booking. The balance will then be due 10 weeks before you travel.

Easy cancellation

Simply add "XCover" to your booking for a full refund if you can't travel. For more details see our Booking Conditions and XCover. You can add XCover to your booking at any time until you have paid your balance, ask your agent. If you simply need to change your dates please let us know: we can often modify your booking rather than cancelling outright.

Worth knowing

Many local administrations now charge a “Tourist Tax” for people staying in rented accommodation and these vary from town to town. The charges are generally per person per night with a maximum number of nights, usually around 5 but sometimes 7, beyond which they will not charge. The charges range between 50 cents to 5 euro. Children are sometimes included, sometimes not and these charges should be collected by the property owners.
