La Casa Dell'isola

 What a great experience. We could "taste" the magic soul of San Giulio island in this wonderful old house. The lake view from the room and during breakfast was truly amazing. A special mention to Mrs. Eugenia who pampered us and made the stay even more enjoyable. A place you can not miss if you want to stay on the island. Ask Mrs. Eugenia to let you visit the garden with private dock, the old kitchens and the garden with raised tower, it will be a great experience. 

     

 Ein ganz besonderer Ort an einem ganz besonderen Ort. Wer Ruhe, viel Platz, antike Einrichtung, Charme und tollen Blick mag, ist hier genau richtig. Heizung, Bäder, Küche funktionieren perfekt trotz des alten Hauses. Empfang und Betreuung waren sehr herzliche und aufmerksam. Ohne das mitgemietete Boot ist ein Aufenthalt zwar möglich, aber deutlich beschwerlicher. Leider hatte das Restaurant auf der Insel nur noch mittags und sporadisch geöffnet, ein Argument mehr für die Bootsmiete.

 Our stay at Eugenia's home has left us speechless, therefore, articulating what made it so special is a bit challenging, but here it goes: Isola San Giulio is one of the most enchanting places I can imagine. It is an old, quiet, and wise island a short boat ride away from beautiful lakeside towns. Eugenia's 19th century (?) villa is likewise quiet and wise, with beautiful period decor throughout. Waking up to the view out the balcony across the lake to Orta and enjoying the same view from the second-floor terrace while enjoying a drink in the afternoon will make think you've been reborn as a god. We visited in late September, and due to a hot summer, the lake water was still a great swimming temperature. I should note the lake waters are pristine. Do opt to rent Eugenia's boat for convenience and leisurely touring the lake. Eugenia and her co-hosts are very kind and accommodating. I made the mistake of being too casual about getting to the island. Make sure to know which ferry dock to board a boat for the Isola (there are 3 in Pella). If you are limited to communicating in English, do speak slowly and clearly. Eugenia left us a generous basket of snacks but do plan to bring groceries to the island. Her kitchen is well stocked with everything you'll need to prepare memorable meals. We cannot wait to return to this special place. 

     

 Excellente expérience dans un lieu exceptionnel 

     

 Beautiful villa on very quiet island. Amazing views and sunrises. Big kitchen which was well equipped. Good for big groups. Boat hire was really important so that you can use restaurants in Orta and Pella in the evenings. Lake is very clean. Not busy with tourists even in August. There is a food market on Thursday morning in Omegna which you can get to by boat. 

 Eugenia war sehr flexibel und zuvorkommend bezüglich Check-In / Check-Out. Uns erwartete bei Ankunft ein süsser kleiner Wilkommenskorb mit Früchte / Keksen / ... Der Garten war zauberhaft, sehr grün mit viele wunderschöne Blumen und bot direkten Seezugang. Wir haben alle Mahlzeiten auf dem Balkon mit absolut zauberhaftem Ausblick genossen 

 An idyll which exceeded our - already high - expectations. Stunning views over the lake to Orta and the surrounding hills. Eugenia is a wonderful host who put lovely flowers, fruit and soaps in the house to greet us. We feel truly privileged to have stayed in Eugenia's home. 

 We loved our stay in Eugenia's beautiful house. All the rooms we clean and gorgeous. We especially liked the large dining room for playing cards. Most of the rooms had wonderful views out to the peaceful lake. Claudia was a wonderful co-host. Her communication with us was always friendly, helpful and quick. Thank you Claudia! And, everyone loved the boat, which we recommend for anyone staying at Eugenia's.

 This is truly a once in a lifetime experience. Eugenia and Claudia were unbelievably kind and helpful hosts. The home is perhaps the most perfect example of an Italian villa that you could ever hope to stay in. Orta and Isola San Giulio are incredibly charming. I can of recommend this gorgeous incredibly house enough! 

 Eugenia was a delight. We enjoyed her home and it was a wonderful place for family memories to be made. Renting her boat is a must as there is only one restaurant and it was closed for dinner until start of summer season. We knew this and it was no problem. Lunch is magnificent at the restaurant. The quiet, views, gardens and areas for outside time are fantastic. The home is well suited for an island home! We will be back! 

 Уважаемая Евгения! Спасибо огромное за гостеприимство! Солнечная, уютная вилла подарила моей семье незабываемый отпуск! Нам все было удобно. Красивая античная атмосфера и романтическое настроение). Балкон, где можно обедать, с прекрасным видом на СантДжулио. Шикарное купание в озере, удобный выход из сада к воде и для взрослых и для детей. Спасибо, надеюсь до новых встреч!
