Rich local families trading with northern Europe built most of the villas on this stretch of Lake Como's western shore in the 17th century, and from the mid-1800s the hotels followed. Tremezzo is essentially a strip of lakefront, with narrow paths climbing the hill behind. Its star is Villa Carlotta, whose terraced gardens bloom with camellias, azaleas and rhododendrons.
Highlights
- Villa Carlotta, with works by Canova and about 8 hectares of gardens
- Villa Meier's public park, joined by Pietro Lingeri's bridge over the road
- Villa AMILA, Lingeri's ship-shaped rationalist home for a motorboat club
- Villa Sola Busca, or La Quiete, where the poet Parini worked as tutor
- Swimming from the steps of a lakeside public park
