Location
The apartment is in an excellent location. Just a few hundred metres from the lake shore and a 15 minute walk from the centre of Lugano. On the border of Switzerland and Italy, the city of Lugano is famous for its stunning location, rich cultural heritage and excellent restaurants and cafés. The city hosts many festivals throughout the year, including the “Luganomusica” festival every summer.
For self-catering, the Lugano farmers’ market (Tuesdays and Fridays) in Via Carducci (7-minute drive) is the place to go to pick up the best ingredients. Otherwise, there are a wide range of supermarkets nearby.
The lovely town of Gandria (4 minute drive) which is towards the Italian border makes a great day out. Visitors can wander through the village’s winding streets or hike along the Sentiero Dell’Olivo. For more beautiful hiking routes, guests can cross over into Italy and enjoy the unspoiled forests and hills of Valsolda (25 minutes).
The closest international airports are in Italy - Milan Malpensa 1 hour, 10 minutes by car, or Milan Linate, a 1 hour and 36-minute journey.

8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Apr 2025
This flat is in a wonderful location, a nice 25 minute walk to the true center of Lugano or a quick bus ride, which you can pick up right down the hill. Flat is super spacious and clean and with incredible views! I would’ve appreciated better quality mattresses/beds, which were fine for a few nights but not much beyond that. And having a few things like paper towels or a few coffee pods for the machine would’ve been a great touch too. Otherwise, well appointed and comfortable, nice value, and you cannot beat the view! It was an easy walk to the Monte Bre funicular too which was nice.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2024
The property was even bigger than we expected. The views were absolutely beautiful and the location was good. The bus system in Lugano is very good so it’s easy to get around town using the bus(even with luggage). Communication with the manager was great. We had one incident with someone knocking on our door telling us to move our vehicle (we didn’t have a vehicle) and the property manager was very responsive and comforting. Also the Landry room is shared with the property downstairs and the door took us a bit to figure out (you have to push it and not turn down and push) Other than that everything was great.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·May 2024
Excellent apartment with a fantastic view, really easy to find, excellent communications with Happy Rentals.
A parking place would be nice if possible as it is quite a hike from the public parking places to the apartment
Would be nice to have a Wi-Fi password that works and is relatively easy to input, not a 16 character input with dashes.....
