Hotel information
Lefay Resort & Spa Lago di Garda is a stunning wellness resort set in 11 hectares of park high above the small town of Gargnano, overlooking Lake Garda. With its lush gardens, breathtaking vistas, and unparalleled amenities, this opulent retreat epitomises the art of refined living.
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by a grand entrance, adorned with cascading bougainvillea and fragrant Mediterranean flora. The architecture seamlessly blends modern elegance with the timeless charm of Italian craftsmanship. The sumptuous interiors exude an air of sophistication, with rich Italian marble and bespoke furnishings.
Each room and suite in the hotel boasts panoramic views of the azure Lake Garda or the lush surrounding hills. Lavish marble bathrooms, plush linens, and carefully curated artworks elevate the sense of luxury in every living space.
The menus at Lefay Resort reflect the surrounding setting in both its opulence and flavours. Gramen, the hotel’s plant-based triumph, tempts the palate with a menu showcasing the finest regional ingredients expertly prepared and elegantly served. Meanwhile, La Grande Limonaia serves up authentic Italian fare in an enchanting lemon garden.
But it's in the realm of wellness that Lefay truly distinguishes itself. The award-winning spa offers a haven of rejuvenation and relaxation, with signature treatments inspired by both Eastern and Western traditions. Bask in the soothing waters of the heated whirlpool, unwind in one of the seven saunas, or take in the mesmerising views from the Infinity Pool perched on a hilltop terrace. At the hotel’s shop, you can find natural cosmetic line products for face and body, herbal teas, home fragrances, and homemade extra virgin olive oils.
