"My family stayed in this fantastic VRBO rental in Lugano and found it to meet our needs in every way. It was centrally located, had off street parking and Gaia made sure that our stay was absolutely perfect. I highly recommend this place for those traveling with their family (we had a 4 year old in tow). We will surely be back when we return to Lugano!"
