Palazzo San Daniele

Details of the Villa

Palazzo San Daniele is a commanding feature of the naturally wild and beautiful shores of Lake Garda, in a privileged position surrounded by breathtaking scenery. Palazzo San Daniele was built towards the end of the 19th century by an aristocratic family. You can still see and feel this heritage in the restored and retained original architecture and carefully selected antique furniture. The stunning location of the villa means that lake views are on offer both inside and out. As well as a large garden to enjoy, you also have your very own private beach and jetty. The sense of peace and relaxation here is second to none, with a lido as well as a lakeside park a little further down the shore. The villa's incredibly spacious accommodation is set over several levels, with luxurious rooms that boast an impressive array of modern features and facilities. The ground floor is where you'll probably spend most of your time, with a huge living room that's ideal for evenings spent with loved ones. There's direct access to the main terrace with a dining table for atmospheric al fresco meals with lake views. There's also a modern, fully-equipped kitchen with lake views, a grand dining room, library, relaxation area and a terrace. Further fantastic spaces can be found on the lower ground floor. Leisure time is spent playing billiards, watching films in the private cinema with Blu-ray library, and enjoying drinks at the bar. After building up a sweat in the gym, relax in the swimming pool and make the most of the spa features that include a sauna and Turkish bath.
