Villa Cristina | Private Heated Pool | Indoor Jacuzzi | Botanical Gardens | Bocce Court | Library | 2 Wine Cellars | Fitness Studio | Private Estate | Lake Como Views | Near Bellagio
Set high above Lake Como in Civenna, a hillside hamlet within the municipality of Bellagio, Villa Cristina is a secluded private estate offering exceptional views over the lake and surrounding Alps. Located more than 400 metres above the water, the villa combines easy access to the lakeshore with a peaceful setting, complete privacy, and a refreshing mountain microclimate.
The estate is surrounded by 12,000 square metres of mature botanical gardens, creating a private oasis of greenery, tranquillity, and beautiful views. Two residences, the Main Villa and Guest House, share the grounds, swimming pool, gardens, and bocce court, while their layout allows guests to enjoy both shared moments and complete privacy. This makes Villa Cristina particularly well suited to large families and multigenerational groups.
The property is maintained year-round by a dedicated gardener and caretaker, with fresh linen and towels provided throughout the stay. Guests are welcomed with a hamper of local produce, while breakfast is offered as a courtesy of Michelin-starred partner Chef Mauro Elli, who can also be engaged for private lunches and dinners at the villa.
A range of additional experiences and services can be arranged through a trusted local concierge, including private boat trips, chauffeur services, in-villa massages and wellness treatments, cooking lessons, and wine tastings. A Technogym fitness studio overlooking the gardens is also available to guests.
The lakeshore is approximately ten minutes away by car, with Tremezzo, Menaggio, and Varenna easily accessible by ferry or private boat. Villa Cristina offers a rare combination of seclusion, panoramic scenery, refined comfort, and convenient access to the highlights of Lake Como.
Note: When the property is taken as the Main Villa alone, staff are accommodated in the upper-floor bedroom area of the Guest House, and guests retain full use of the ground-floor fitness studio. At full occupancy, staff are accommodated off-site; privacy is guaranteed.
Pool Heating Notice: Pool heating is included in the rate during June and August. Pool heating during all other months is available on request at an additional charge.
