Ciao!… Maciej and Brenda here, founders of Trusty Co-host.

Traveling has always been a big part of our lives, having lived in several different countries over the years and being fortunate enough to visit many others.  For us, much of the appeal is meeting interesting people and learning all the wonderful customs and traditions of every new region we explore.  It isn’t very surprising, therefore, that we ended up in Italy which has so much to offer in that respect. 

It all began in 2007 when we relocated to the country’s beautiful Lake District, settling down in Stresa, one of the most popular towns on Lake Maggiore.  Looking for a tourism-based activity, we began working with local property owners, helping them manage their vacation homes just as holiday rentals was becoming more and more popular throughout the region.  Within a few short years we turned this into a full-time business, offering a variety of services to property owners situated not just around Lake Maggiore but throughout the entire Lake District, and beyond.  

From the beginning, our goal wasn’t to become one of the biggest companies of its kind in the region but certainly one of the best.  In order to do that, we decided to prioritize “quality” over “quantity”, a philosophy we continue to follow to this very day by working with a limited number of properties to ensure we always provide the highest level of service to all our clients.  We also wanted to be different and provide truly exceptional service no just to property owners but also to their guests.  Happy satisfied guests are a key to one’s long-term success and in order to be able to provide the best possible service to travelers and holidaymakers coming to the Lake District, where the vast majority of the properties we co-host are currently located, we spent the last decade or so thoroughly exploring the region, visiting all its wonderful attractions and discovering its numerous other hidden treasures.  In recent years we began to publish detailed travel guides focusing on the four main lakes in the region which we now give away to our guests to help them plan their upcoming stays.  We also make ourselves available and encourage our guests to contact us with any questions or for some additional personalized recommendations… be it a scenic hiking trail, a tranquil beach or a nice local pizzeria.  This approach to co-hosting has proven very effective and beneficial to everyone involved and since it is also something we truly enjoy, we plan on continuing doing it for many years to come.
