    The description on VRBO does not do this property justice - it is so much better than described. Plenty of clean appropriately sized bedrooms and bathrooms, two kitchens, with ample dining space. Outdoor sitting and eating areas, medium sized pool with lounge chairs and plenty of walking space and parking space as the property is enormous. Close proximity to several small towns on Lake Gardia makes the house perfect for relaxation, sightseeing and shopping.

    We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful villa! We were a large group of 12, and it was the perfect size to accommodate all of us. The location is very good, very close to Toscolano Maderno, and it was easy to get to hiking, biking, ferries, beautiful, small towns on the lake, and excellent restaurants in Salò. The owners were incredibly helpful, even quickly buying a replacement refrigerator when one of the two refrigerators was broken. The agency was very responsive and helpful, in the house had everything we needed. The kids loved having a pool, though we often found it just as nice to go down to a beach along the lake. The only thing I would recommend to any visitor of the house is to make sure you take the correct road into the house, or if you wish to take some of the smaller back roads, you get a smaller car… We found that we could not take the most direct route into Toscano, as some of the Roads that went over the mountain and down towards Toscolano/Salò where too tight for the average size German car. This is not much of a problem since the alternative route only takes an extra 5 to 10 minutes, but it gave us a little bit of an adventure when we discovered this on our first day! We loved our stay, and would happily come again if we were doing such a large family trip.

    Dear Philipp, Thank you very much for your detailed and thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that you and your family had such a wonderful stay at Gran Paradiso and that the villa was the perfect size for your group of 12. It is great to know that you enjoyed the location and were able to easily explore the beautiful surroundings, including the lake, nearby towns, hiking and biking trails, and the excellent restaurants in the area. We truly appreciate your kind words about the owners and our team. Providing prompt assistance and ensuring our guests have a comfortable stay is always our priority, and we are pleased that our efforts contributed positively to your experience. It is especially rewarding to hear that both adults and children enjoyed their holiday, whether relaxing by the pool or spending time at the lakeside beaches. Thank you also for sharing your helpful advice regarding the mountain roads. The scenic routes around Lake Garda can sometimes be an adventure, especially with larger vehicles, and we are glad that this became part of your holiday memories rather than a major inconvenience. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family, and we would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back to Gran Paradiso for another unforgettable gathering in the future. Warm regards, Cristina Holiday Garda

    Villa Grand Paradiso

    Das Anwesen liegt sehr idyllisch und bietet viel Platz im Garten für Kinder und allen Freizeitaktivitäten. Der Wohnbereich ist ebenfalls großzügig und auch mit allen wichtigen Dingen ausgestattet. Sehr nette Menschen vor Ort. Insgesamt sehr gepflegte und schöne Lokation. Nachteilig ist die Hellhörigkeit im Schlafbereich. Die Böden im schlafbereich haben keinerlei trittschalldämmung so dass mit unterschiedlichen Schlafenszeiten bei Kindern sowie Aufenthalt im Wohnbereich zu Schlafenszeiten nicht unproblematisch ist. Bei schönem Wetter kein Problem da man nach draußen ausweichen kann.

    Absolut empfehlenswert für große Gruppen

    Wunderschöner, riesiger Olivengarten bietet Platz für verschiedene Outdoor-Spiele, aber auch Rückzugsmöglichkeiten. Die beiden gut ausgestatteten Küchen sind sehr geräumig zwei Spülmaschinen bei 18 Personen waren sehr arbeitserleichternd. Unsere Ansprechpartnerin Novella Battani war immer zu erreichen und hat alle Fragen schnell und kompetent beantwortet. Wir können dieses Anwesen nur empfehlen! Der Pool ist für die mögliche Anzahl der Gäste etwas klein. Ferner: Das Wasser war sehr stark gechlort.
