From its tranquil position elevated above Lake Garda and surrounded by verdant gardens and fruit trees, the beautiful Villa La Gardenia & Oleandra offers an exceptionally attentive service. The three villas Gardenia, Oleandra and Zagare that comprise the hotel have been renovated in recent years and are home to simple yet elegant rooms with stunning views of the lake and mountains beyond.

The flourishing gardens in which the villas are settled offer unrivaled panoramic views amongst the palms, olive trees and bougainvillea flowers yet despite this feeling of tranquility and peace, you are just five minutes from the hustle and bustle of Limone centre. The perfect spot for those looking to relax and escape the day to day, Villa La Gardenia & Oleandra has a spectcular pool and sun terrace where you can bask in the mountain sun as you gaze out over the cyan waters of Lake Garda. There is also a private path from the hotel which leads to a waterfall and incredible viewing spot (please note the route takes around one hour but there are places to sit along the way). Guests of the Montagnoli family also have access to the Giardino di Rose spa which is home to a sauna, Jacuzzi, Turkish bath and solarium, perfect after a day of exploring Limone's quaint, cobbled streets.

The elegant dining room spills out onto the terrace overlooking the lake and is where you'll take breakfast and dinner. Breakfast is a rich buffet service with a wide range of both hot and cold options and dinner is a four course affair with a selection of wonderful and traditional Italian cuisine on offer. On one evening each week the owners of the hotel lead a walk through the town which you can join to get some insight and local knowledge of this stunning resort.

Limone

Nestling alongside lemon groves, beneath the cliffs of the north-western shore of Lake Garda, Limone is a picture postcard resort - an artist’s paradise. Houses covered in blossoming geraniums and bougainvillaea line the old, cobbled streets that lead up from the lakeside. The lakeside is equally colourful with two small harbours, old arches and a variety of shops - leather goods are a speciality.

There are wonderful opportunities in the resort of Limone for walking as well as fireworks displays, cultural visits and concerts in the square most Saturdays. Limone’s bars and promenade really come to life in the evening. Our hotels in Limone offer you a great choice of accommodation for the perfect stay.
