Villa Begonia offers a single accommodation solution designed to host large groups in complete independence: a 200-square-metre holiday home arranged over five separate bedrooms, each with its own combination of French double beds and single beds, for a total of eleven guests that can be accommodated at the same time. Each room is designed to guarantee privacy even during stays shared between multiple families or groups of friends.
The layout includes two living rooms, a dining area and four full bathrooms with shower and bathtub, so as to avoid queues in the morning even when the house is full. The kitchen, well equipped with a hob, oven, dishwasher and utensils, allows the whole group to cook independently. Several rooms enjoy a lake view, and the house has an independent entrance and outdoor furniture to enjoy the garden on warmer days.
The only accommodation type offered by Villa Begonia is the entire holiday home, spread across five independent bedrooms that together reach 200 square metres. One of the rooms offers a direct lake view, while the shared kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher and hob for use by the whole group. The four bathrooms, with shower and bathtub, are distributed among the rooms to ensure comfort for up to eleven guests at the same time. An independent entrance and outdoor furniture complete the offer, designed for extended families or groups looking for space and independence in a single booking.
Villa Begonia offers guests a range of services designed for independent, extended stays. Private parking is free and available directly on-site, a notable advantage for those arriving by car in this area of Lake Maggiore. Free WiFi covers the entire property, as does the heating and the entirely non-smoking environment, including the bedrooms.
The kitchen is one of the property’s strengths: equipped with a hob, oven, microwave oven, refrigerator, dishwasher and full utensils, it allows meals to be managed in complete freedom for the whole group. The dining area and outdoor furniture in the garden offer further spaces for socialising. The bathrooms are fitted with both shower and bathtub, while the independent entrance ensures privacy from other accommodation units in the area.
Pets are allowed at no extra charge, a detail that makes Villa Begonia a practical choice for those travelling with their dog or cat.
