Villa Aurea: A Stylish New Stay Overlooking Lake Como

Villa Aurea is ideal for travellers seeking a calm and private residence, with generous living spaces and outdoor areas designed to take in the lake views. Just outside the kitchen, a spacious terrace connects to a shaded outdoor area complete with an open-air kitchen and seating space. The infinity pool visually merges with the lake, blurring the line between water and horizon. Further down the garden, an extended outdoor area features a solarium and a bocce court, offering the chance to enjoy a traditional game while taking in the fresh air and sunshine.

Beyond private holidays, Villa Aurea is also well suited to hosting intimate private events. The villa’s panoramic terraces, landscaped gardens, and elegant indoor spaces create a memorable setting for milestone birthdays, anniversary celebrations, private dinners, and boutique weddings overlooking the lake. For travellers seeking a destination that combines accommodation with a special occasion, it offers a rare level of exclusivity and atmosphere.

Villa Aurea is located in Sala Comacina, near Isola Comacina—the only island on Lake Como. This historic site dates back to Roman and medieval times, when it served as an important military and religious centre before its destruction in the 12th century. Today, the island remains one of the most recognisable landmarks of the central lake.

The surrounding village of Sala Comacina, a small historic settlement on the western shore between Como and Menaggio, is known for its peaceful atmosphere, mild climate, and views across the calm bay known as Zoca de l’Oli, famous for its unusually smooth waters. Choosing Villa Aurea means staying in one of the most authentic corners of the lake—away from the crowds, yet within easy reach of Bellagio, Tremezzo, and the central lake.

Villa Aurea is exclusively managed by My Home In Como, a Lake Como–based company specialising in premium short-term rentals and tailored hospitality experiences. Their local expertise ensures the villa is operated to the highest standards, with every detail carefully arranged—from pre-arrival planning and concierge services to personalised in-stay assistance. My Home In Como also manages private events hosted at Villa Aurea, coordinating everything from catering and styling to guest logistics, allowing celebrations to unfold seamlessly in an exceptional lakeside setting.
