Small Boutique hotels in GARDA LAKE

Lake Garda is the largest of all lakes in Italy. Located in the north of the country, it is a haven of peace where you can relax in front of its waters and enjoy attractive villages dotting the banks. But it is also a destination for excursions through the mountains that embrace it on the north side, and walks through the gentle elevated terrain of the south.

Lake Garda has a unique microclimate, where grape vine, olive and lemon cultivation coexist. The village of Bardolino is well known for its excellent wines. Limone, on the west coast, reflects the fact that it is home to the aromatic citrus tree. Garda's extra virgin olive oil is officially protected as a designation of origin and is one of the local delicacies.

Bordering its banks of more than 150 kilometers, you will find charming luxury hotels to stay. Among old fishing villages and medieval centers, the aristocratic nineteenth century villas with spectacular gardens are a highlight.

Riva del Garda, in the north, is sheltered by the Alps. Malcesine was immortalized by the painter Gustav Klimt. Saló or Peschiera, to the south, are other special places. The most famous, Sirmione, sits on a small peninsula that penetrates the lake. Its spectacular 13th century fortress seems to float on water. With an underground spring, its thermal waters are highly recommended.
