Lovely location, very peaceful place to stay
Stayed in Chalet Venere for two weeks at the end of August. The owner was very welcoming, spoke great English, and was very helpful. It's a wonderful location; An easy 10 min walk into the village for a selection of v good restaurants, a small supermarket and several gelateria. It's only a 10 min drive to the nearest lake beach which is stoney not sandy, so the water is very clear. The nearest sandy beach is in Toscolano Moderno which is 20 min drive. The villa is small but perfectly formed! The lounge area is very comfortable and the large windows are great for enjoying the epic view and wild flowers , butterflies outside. Dining table is large & practical, the kitchen area is basic (no microwave or dishwasher) but this suited us fine. We cooked most days on the BBQ and the mountain breeze is welcome during the hotter days.
Olive orchard oasis
We visited Malcesine for a wedding in July and picked La Pervinca because we wanted a quiet location away from the hustle and bustle of the busy town centre. The ground floor apartment with terrace was just perfect as we could lie on the sunloungers in the shade of the olive trees listening to cicadas and the occasional hum of the cable car passing nearby. The odd dog barking at the odd moped going past, but other than that no traffic noise. The only downside of the location is the necessary walk to reach the town or lakeside. Although short it is uphill to return and in hot weather quite a struggle. But we knew this would be the case in July when the temperatures were 34 degrees, and knowing we could have a shower and lie down in the shade at the end made it OK.
The apartment was well-equipped with plenty of space especially in the bathroom and a comfortable bed. Air-conditioning would have been welcome, but there was usually a breeze being higher up . The view from the roof terrace was lovely, especially at night, and it was wonderful to have so much outside space to use. Our host Massimo was extremely welcoming and helpful. We would definitely stay here again but at a cooler time of year!
Perfect
Perfect setting. 5 mins walk to Monte Baldo cable car and a further 5 to the main centre of Malcesine. Spotless clean apartment and well equipped, but didn't have a micro wave. Had more kitchen utensils than I have at home. Large rooms all spotless clean. Wi-fi was a bit hit and miss but that was fine. Table and chairs on private terrace, chairs in the front garden and plenty of sun lounges and umbrellas on the roof terrace with amazing views of the lake, the castle and the mountains and of course the garden, which is full of olive trees which are stunning. If you drive there is also plenty of space to park your car. This is a great place to stay and the owner is extremely helpful. If you don't have a car which we didn't he will offer to get your heavy shopping for you. We will be returning June 2017.
