00:00This is the only hotel in Lake Como that lets you drive a motorboat all on your own out on the lake.
00:05We're in the sleepy little town of Torno, and here you have Il Sereno, voted the best resort in Europe in 2023.
00:11There are 40 suites all with lake views, and I said this in the article I wrote and I stand by it,
00:16I think this is the most beautiful hotel pool I've ever seen. If you disagree, please comment.
00:21But my favorite part of staying here was that we got to self-drive a Riva motorboat.
00:26I've been to Como a number of times, but I had no idea how different and special it would feel to be completely free out on the water.
00:33Back at the hotel, the dining space was another big highlight. Sitting, eating pasta under those stone archways was pretty magical.
00:39And the dinner restaurant is Michelin-starred and has three tasting menus, plus plenty of opportunities for sunset champagne.
