Gute Lage am Hang mit sehr schönem Blick auf den See. Anlage ist sehr gepflegt. Der Pool ist sehr schön gestaltet, viele Liegen, gute Sonnenschirme. Die Snackbar am Pool war leider kaum offen. Die Garage ist groß genug, auch für SUVs, aber steile, etwas enge Zufahrt. Die Apartments sind geräumig, aber auch spartanisch, einfach eingerichtet. Dem Preis nicht angemessen! Bett, Matratzen und Bettwäsche sind gut. Genügend Handtücher und Badetücher vorhanden. TV leider nur mit terrestrischem Empfang, kein deutscher Sender für z.B. Nachrichten. Terassenstühle aus Stahl ohne Auflagen oder Kissen, also für die schönen Abende mit Blick auf den See sehr unbequem. Wir würden aber noch mal dort buchen.

Scenic

Beautiful property with incredible views, we travelled with children, HAD to use the car to get anywhere on account of the 2.5km windy hill down the mountain to the nearest bar, restaurants.... stunning but a bit out of the way for a young family, also it’s a fair trip from the airport too. Overall really nice and the pool area/cafe run by Paula was really nice and friendly. Great property, great views, could do with a restaurant on site ideally, but it is self catering so....

Beautiful views of Lake Garda

We had a great stay here! After travelling to other areas of Lake Garda we all agreed that we had chosen wisely! (‘We’ being a family of 4). The apartment was spacious and clean, with a kitchen that had all the equipment needed for making our own meals. The balcony had a great view of the lake - despite being described as having ‘partial view’. (We were in room E3). We spent most mornings and early evenings enjoying the peace and the view. The pool area is lovely, again with a fab view of the Lake. It had a small bar that served drinks, ice cream and light lunches. I would recommend these apartments to those wanting a good base to explore Lake Garda, away from the lakeside crowds. One tip however - do not necessarily trust SatNav to get you here! The first couple of times we used ours, we went though some seriously steep and tight roads, not at all pleasant.

Great family holiday in the sun

We stayed as family of 4 at end of July. Kids were 2 & 5. Accommodation layout worked well. Kids in master bedroom (we took own travel cot as it was 10 Euros a day to hire one); us up in comfy double bed on mezzanine. Meant we could have dinner & move around the apartment easily in the evenings after kids were in bed. Only downside was only AC unit is in master bedroom. So it did get v hot on mezzanine. Pools were great. Shallow kids pool & larger one. Inflatables were permitted so extra fun there. Beautiful lake views from your lounger. Only negative of our stay was that the steps access up to the nearest pizzeria (Nablus. Go there! Best pizza we’ve ever had) is now closed so we had to drive there. Not safe to walk on steep winding roads without pavements. Only 5 min drive but meant only one of us could have a drink with dinner. Other restaurants & supermarkets are also a drive away so stock up on groceries before you arrive. We self catered a bit but ate out a lot too. We went to Gardaland, Verona & took a boat across to Garda. Wonderful family holiday. Would highly recommend.

Overall the staff were very friendly and approachable, the property is we kept, rosemary bushes for hedging and lavender for border plants. The pool area is also well laid out and easily accessible, again the staff were very friendly. I was a little underwhelmed with the apartment, clean and tidy but maybe a little tired, fridge bottom tray was broken, there was a decorative corner missing of the shower tray just small things that you wouldn't have at home. There was also no dishwasher in the kitchen, which surprised me as advertised as a fully equipped kitchen.

Beautiful Setting

Spent 7 days here, from 28/06/17 to 06/7. The appartments are really nice, clean and there's a table and chairs out side. The swimming pool overlooks stunning views of Lake Garde. Bad points were that it's up a steep hill/mountain, the road is very narrow near the top, only a car width,and if one car is going up as another is coming down, it's scary. The appartments seemed very popular with German families and that was the only language I heard. If you don't have mobility problems, these appartments are great with stunning panoramic views of Lake Garde.

시즌이 끝나서 투숙객이 없어 다소 썰렁하다는 느낌은 받았지만, 그 덕에 호수가 보이는 방으로 바꿔주는 기회를 잡았음. 시설도 깨끗하고 직원의 친절도가 너무 좋아서 다시 방문하고 싶은 곳! 아쉽게도 안개와 구름이 덮여서 풍광을 제대로 감상을 못 했지만 날씨 좋을 때의 lake view의 객실은 너무나도 좋아 보일것 같음. 다만, 찾아가는 길이 네비와 맞지 않아 어려움이 있었음.

Traumhafte Lage für Ruhesuchende

Wir haben dieses Hotel bereits zum zweiten Mal besucht. Die Apartments sind sehr geräumig, sauber und zweckmäßig mit allem - außer einer Spülmaschine - ausgestattet, was auch ein Selbstversorger erwartet. Wir bevorzugen allerdings, uns in den vielen guten Restaurants mit mediterraner Küche in der näheren Umgebung verwöhnen zu lassen. Ein Auto ist wegen der Lage hoch oben am Hang notwendig, wenn man nicht sehr sportlich und gut zu Fuß ist. Dafür entschädigt der Panoramablick. Unbedingt Zimmer mit direktem Seeblick buchen! Erwähnenswert noch, dass es nur im Schlafzimmer eine Klimaanlage gibt.

Good residences in hills overlooking lake garda

Very pleasant residences. Situated in hills just above lake garda. Great views over lake. Good value for money. Swimming pool not large but was fine. Mostly german visitors with smattering of english and dutch. Mostly families with small children, all very nice. Air conditioning is only in bedroom. That means main room and particularly upstairs room is excessively hot. It says satellite tv but there are only a few italian language channels available. Also "games room" is a small room with some plastic mostly broken toddler toys - don't expect a ps4. Rooms nice and clean and they changed towels and cleaned regularly. Staff friendly and bar by pool lovely for drinks and lunch. Is a pain to try to find initially as sat navs dont help but easy once you've found your way around. Overall good value and pleasant especially compared with very pricey villas around but next time would try to find something with air conditioning throughout.

Die Unterkunft liegt etwas zu weit abseits von Gardone Riviera und man kann ohne PKW abends recht wenig unternehmen. Der Blick auf den Gardasee ist aber wirklich sehr schön. Wer die Ruhe sucht ist dort gut untergebracht, lediglich die im Erdgeschoss liegenden Appartments mit Seeblick liegen direkt an Zufahrststasse zu Parkhaus. Das war dann teilweise doch etwas zu viel Verkehr.
