What's nearby:

Gandria is a picturesque and well-preserved village, among the most beautiful lakeside villages in Ticino, whose houses set on the mountainside, on the slopes of Mount Brè, are reflected in the waters of the Ceresio. The narrow buildings are reached via stairways and alleys. Some houses date back to the 16th and 17th centuries and are embellished with frescoes and stucco decorations. The village is easily reachable by boat from Lugano, by car and by bus via the scenic road, Strada di Gandria.

Next to the apartment there is the Roccabella Restaurant, which offers menus of local dishes and also provides breakfast service upon request.

Among the most celebrated points of interest is the famous Sentiero di Gandria, an extraordinarily beautiful path that follows the lake among green Mediterranean vegetation, olive trees, typical lakeside houses, and the lake within walking distance. 

Cantine di Gandria and Caprino are also easily reachable by boat, on the other side of the lake, where you can walk along a path through the greenery and taste Ticino delicacies in the typical grotti restaurants.

By car you can reach Lido di Lugano and Parco Ciani in just 10 minutes, the center of Lugano in max 15 minutes. There is a nice little Lido also in Gandria, at the beginning of the path on the Castagnola side, the Lido San Domenico.

Italy is also just a stone's throw away: the Gandria customs is 2 minutes away, and by crossing it you reach the beautiful Italian shore of Lake Lugano, with the small villages of Valsolda, such as Oria (famous for the Villa Fogazzaro Roi, a FAI heritage site) and Porlezza.
