Lido di Lenno

About Lido di Lenno

Deep house and lounge-leaning chill house set the volume here — audible from the daybeds, never loud enough to talk over, with commercial hits drifting in as the afternoon tips towards aperitivo. The lido runs on daybeds and table service, so a visit tends to stretch: a swim, a long lunch of Italian plates and seafood, then drinks as the light goes off the water at Lenno. Beachwear is the code all day, which keeps the tone unfussy despite a crowd that mixes socialites with Western European visitors working their way around the lake. Prices sit in the mid band, a fair rate for a full day on Como rather than a token sunbed fee. Friday and Saturday are the busy ones, and the season is finite — April to October, closed through the colder months — so August weekends reward booking a bed ahead rather than turning up hopeful.
