The villa's spacious interiors have just been renovated, (very fast wifi, airconditioning, new interior refurbishing and a bigger kitchen in 2023) yet the villa still retains its original 1900 neo-classical charm (listed building). The big fenced garden is immersed in a nature reserve with century old trees and rare flowers, walking and MTB paths. Nearby many lovely pretty hamlets of Lake Garda with harbour , castles, and delicious restaurants. A short drive from the villa: boat rentals, street food markets, shopping malls with italian fashion, excellent wine tasting, ferry tours, Venice, Italian "Disney" biggest park Gardaland, thermal baths, Verona, Parcosigurtà, Borghetto, Sirmione, Vicenza, Padua, Milan, Bergamo!

Absolutely magical

The property is breathtakingly beautiful, with a lot of history and an amazing garden with stunning views especially with the sun set in the evening. Maria was very Kind and helpful through the whole booking process and the welcome was very nice and pleasant. We were there with 15 friends and I can highly recommend this place for a group of this size.

Stunning villa and views of Lake Garda

Words cannot describe how much our family of 15 enjoyed our week at this beautiful villa on amazing Lake Garda. Maria Laura was such a wonderful host. The villa designed and built by her grandfather was amazing and so much better than the pictures portrayed. The view of Lake Garda was incredible especially the sunsets. We really enjoyed visiting several towns on Garda , daytripped to hike in the Dolomites, day trip to Venice , and Padua and even got tickets for outdoor opera in Verona. We enjoyed the beautiful villa and the kitchen had been redone and was great. The only challenge for us were only 4 bathrooms for 15 adults but it worked. We also had a little trouble walking down to the beach on the lake. Maria Laura was the perfect host and even mailed some books we left behind to us. We will cherish our memories of this wonderful place all our lives. Thank you ML

A memorable family reunion in a beautiful villa

The villa was just as advertised by Maria Laura but the photos did not do the views or the location justice. Up a winding driveway the villa is situated far away from traffic noise and crowds with glorious views of the lake. Mornings and evenings were spent leisurely dining on the patio, the children playing in the grounds or in the pool, with the breathtaking backdrop of Lake Garda. In August the daytime temperatures were very warm but the cool evenings were a delight. The numerous rooms and passages were a haven for the children to explore in the villa, and they were also fortunate to be able to share in the fresh figs from the trees which just happened to be ripe. Every day was filled with a new adventure in surrounding villages and towns, each with its own special character, food and wine. Venice was one major day trip which was filled with suprises and photo opportunities at every turn. Alas, we were not able to see as many sights as planned. We were however very happy to potter around and relax by the lake, and to take in the local ambiance. More to look forward to for our next visit which we will certainly do. Maria Laura made sure that our stay went according to plan and was in communication throughout our visit to make sure we had what we needed. The whole transaction and organization of the visit was smooth and without any issues at all. If you are looking for a very authentic Italian experience, in a rustic location, surrounded by scenic vistas and lots of history, this unique location is for you.

Eine außergewöhnliche Unterkunft mit sensationellem Blick auf den Gardasee

Sehr schön : eine ruhige Lage oberhalb des Sees in einer alten Villa mit tollem Flair.Mit mehreren Leuten ein idealer Urlaubsort gemeinsam zu entspannen genießen und alle möglichen Unternehmungen zu machen. Wir waren 4 Paare und ein Single und fanden es ideal-gemeinsam kochen-Zeit im Garten und am/im Pool abends oder bei Gewitter am offenen Kamin…kurz ein Traumurlaub für alle…

Amazing vacation

San Vigilio is the best location and the best beach on Lake Garda, so clean and refreshing! The house is the largest we have ever stayed in (and the garden was massive too!), with top quality luxury airconditioning and wifi. The pool is perfect and clean. They can get you a chef and food delivery for very reasonable prices on request. Food and wine are spectacular BTW. The owners are professional tour guides who will go out of her way to make you feel home and organize the days out / sightseeing. Don't forget Gardaland Disney Park if you have kids, it's only a couple of minutes drive from the property. Rental rates much lower than the other luxury villas on the same beach, as it is a family owned kind of business, and they seem to be very eager to make you want to come back the following summer (which we'll certainly do by the way). You can't go wrong with this imho

Wir verbrachten wunderschöne Tage mit 13 Personen in der weitläufigen Villa.

Die Villa ist so großzügig geschnitten, dass jeder ausreichend Freiraum hat und was uns aber viel wichtiger ist, so große Tische, dass alle zusammen bequem Essen können. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Kinderbetten und Hochstühle sind vorhanden Der Garten mit dem Pool ist einfach nur traumhaft. Die Villa lebt von dieser einzigartigen Lage. Wir hätten uns allerdings gewünscht, dass die Müllentsorgung bei diesem Preis inbegriffen ist.

A local path brings you down to the beach of San Vigilio in four minutes. A great base from which to explore the Veneto (Venice is superb!). Most definitely will be coming back.

Traumhafte Aussicht, super Lage und tolle Zeit.

Das Ferienhaus befindet sich leicht versteckt an einem Hügel außerhalb von Garda, von wo aus man in 3 Himmelsrichtungen auf den See schaut. Das Haus selbst war auch für 12 Personen groß genug und einladend, lediglich die Küche ist zum Kochen für viele Personen manchmal vielleicht ein wenig klein, was aber nicht wirklich einschränkt. Es gibt ausreichend Bäder und Toiletten. Der Garten ist einfach nur traumhaft, genug Platz für jegliche Freizeitaktivität und der Pool lädt zum Baden und Abkühlen ein. Die Größe des Pools war für uns absolut ausreichend. Es gab 7 Liegen, um sich im Garten mit Blick auf den Gardasee zu sonnen. An zwei Abenden hatten wir die Kochkünste von Carmen, welche auch mit uns den Check In durchführte gebucht, was sich definitiv gelohnt hat. Der Kontakt im Vorfeld und auch während des Aufenthalts mit Maria Laura war immer super nett, schnell und hilfreich, Danke hierfür :) Wir kommen definitv wieder!

Wunderschöne alte riesige Villa mit riesigem Garten und unglaublicher Aussicht

Wir (2 Familien mit fast erwachsenen Kindern, 10 Personen) haben den Aufenthalt von der ersten Minute an genossen. Maria Laura war von Buchung bis Abreise eine super freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, die sich toll gekümmert hat. Der Garten der Villa ist riesig, die Aussicht atemberaubend - Frühstück im Schatten mit Blick auf den Gardasee einfach klasse! Innen ist das Haus hübsch und freundlich eingerichtet. Die Küche ist etwas klein, hat aber alles, was man braucht. Das gesamte Haus bietet so viele Möglichkeiten, dass man sehr entspannt sein Plätzchen finden und nutzen kann - auch mit Heranwachsenden :-). Der Pool ist toll und weil jederzeit verfügbar, immer und immer wieder eine sehr willkommene Abkühlung an heißen Tagen. In wenigen Minuten kann man außerdem über einen kleinen Trampelpfad direkt zum See in die Baia delle Sirene runtersteigen - ebenfalls sehr zu empfehlen! Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Woche abseits von allen Corona-Sorgen und kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Unbeatable

Palatial 19th century country manor rising out of a rocky seafront peak, nestled in "pandemic friendly" glorious isolation 2km south of Torri del Benaco. The beach (ideal for families and children, with sunbeds, bar, restaurants and pizzeria) is a 5 minute walk from the house. The private swimming pool with lounging deck and sunbeds are so relaxing you won't want to ever move from this paradise! The interior oozes style with marble and wood minimalist décor, and boasts high speed wifi, airconditioning and thick stone walls to keep cool in the summer heat. Lush garden with huge carpark.

About the host

Hosted by ML

My grandfather was a very talented engineer and renovating architect. He built this villa for his family (my family, lucky me!). He also built several villas on Lake Garda (villa Cometti, villa Tempesta, villa Tremosine and many others) and palazzos in Verona and in Venice. He renovated the frescoes and stuccoes of many old palladian villas in Venice and he was the renovation directing architect of some medieval churches (the belltower of the Cathedral in Verona, the medieval Church in Torbe etc)
