Marciaga, Italy
A family-run hillside relais above Lake Garda with 20 rooms, Garden Pool Suites with private heated mini-pools, and a poolside Silence Mode policy.
Twenty rooms sit on the green hills above Lake Garda in Marciaga. Each is individually designed with details in wood, terracotta, and glass. The Garden Pool Suites have private heated mini-pools and tropical-style showers overlooking an internal patio. Covered terraces with gas fireplaces face the Verona countryside.
The family behind Relais Rossar opened the property in 2014, building every corner from personal passion. Monthly wine tastings bring Lake Garda wineries to the relais. In April, the spa fills with themed pairings of music and aromas. An Easter chocolate egg tradition has run for over ten years. The scale stays intimate, the pace stays slow.
The outdoor pool opens at seven and closes at eight in the evening. Sunbeds, parasols, and poolside drinks fill the hours between. A strict Silence Mode policy keeps the pool area free from phones and noise. Scenic hikes start from the surrounding hillside trails above Lake Garda.
Monthly wine tastings run in collaboration with Lake Garda wineries. Private group tastings can be arranged on request. The Winter Garden Veranda and Billiard Room host small meetings and creative retreats. In August, a watermelon party takes over the pool deck.
