Our Stay in Corona
Corona is a charming village high in the mountains outside Lugano. We loved our stay in this spacious and comfortable house. It has a spectacular view of the mountains and Lake Lugano. The village has a charming church, shops, many ancient houses, a few hotels, and a large swimming pool open to the public. Nearby are hiking trails in all directions. It is perfect for a family vacation.

Nettes Haus an ruhiger Lage
Das Haus liegt am Hang schräg unterhalb des Dorfes. Es ist schon etwas älter, aber alles funktioniert und entspricht der Beschreibung im Inserat. Ideal für Familien bis fünf Personen, mit genügend Platz drinnen und draussen.

Great relax in Carona
We spent 5 enjoyable days in a beautiful village of Carona. The Parco San Grato is definitely worth a visit (there is also a nice playground). We felt like at home - the house is very comfortable and you find there everything you need, especially if you have children. Our 2-year-old son loved the house and the garden and did not want to leave :) The hosts re accomodating and helpful. I would come back again.

Entspannte Tage in beeindruckender Umgebung
Umgeben von Vogelgezwitscher und Blumenduft haben wir wundervolle Wanderungen mit traumhafer Aussicht geniessen können. Das Freibad war zur Abkühlung super. Müde sind wir dann in das gemütliche Häuschen zurück gekehrt und haben den Abend auf der Terasse ausklingen lassen.
