Villa Issima is our family vision of the perfect escape—crafted with passion, adventure, and a profound sense of home.
With a blend of, South African soul, USA, Singapore and the UK experiences and Italian flair, the villa radiates character and warmth while celebrating the rich heritage of Lake Como.
Having lived on four continents and travelled the world with our two daughters, we have worked to bring global inspiration to life in Villa Issima. Over the years, we carefully reimagined the villa to reflect our "Villa Issima Experience": a balance of luxury, comfort, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes guests feel at home. Every element of the villa, from custom-designed furniture to hand-selected decor from the places we have lived has been chosen to create an elegant yet inviting space. Working with professional architect Alessandra Guanziroli and Veronique’s experience running Earth Design International, Villa Issima underwent a thoughtful renovation, preserving original elements while adding custom pieces, vintage treasures, and artworks collected over the globe.
