Splendido Bay Luxury Spa Resort
Lake Garda's sleek and stylish resort
A chic property set on Lake Garda’s southern shores.
Splendido Bay Luxury Spa Resort is set on Lake Garda’s busier southern shoreline, close to the hillside town of Padenghe Sul Garda – an under-the-radar town and the more renowned towns of Sirmione and Desenzano del Garda. The hotel was originally a palace, built in the 17th century and its renovation painstakingly preserved original architectural and decorative features. A large outdoor pool overlooks the spectacular lake beyond. Here you can relax in a muslin-draped daybed by the pool and soak up the views. These dreamy vistas are the backdrop for breakfast on the outdoor terrace – and some of the rooms and suites.
Why we love Splendido Bay Luxury Spa Resort
-
Just a short drive to Desenzaro del Garda where you can enjoy wonderful lake views from the castle.
-
Take a journey along the resort's Wellness Path where you can experience three hours of relaxation as you indulge in the impressive array of facilities at the spa.
-
Epicureans love the option to go wine tasting or learning more about olive oil production in the region.
-
For a mid-size hotel, the choice of dining options at Splendido is impressive. You can also explore some of the many restaurants on offer at Desenzano del Garda.
