In northern Italy, bordered by the Alps, lies one of the world's most coveted yet surprisingly discreet vacation destinations. Shaped like an inverted "Y", Lake Como offers a sumptuous succession of picturesque towns along its shores, its two arms-Como to the west, Lecco to the east-joining in the town of Bellagio. In the early hours of the morning, a mysterious Mist-perhaps the source of Lake Como's mysterious, old-fashioned allure-planes over the lake's surface. At sunrise, the magnificent gardens of Villa d'Este, Passalacqua and Villa del Balbianello come to life, the intoxicating fragrance of cypress and oak trees awakening the senses, as if you were stepping into the pages of Alessandro Manzoni's most famous Italian novel, The Betrothed (1827), set on Lake Como. After a day spent enjoying picturesque walks, lazing lakeside on the Mandarin Oriental's floating pool or savoring the rich traditions evoking ancient times, you may be swept across the sparkling lake on board a luxurious Riva boat, to cross paths with local owner George Clooney. In Idylle au lac de Côme, a magical Italian getaway awaits, with romantic intrigue, bucolic escapes and enchanting landscapes.
