Cape of Senses

If you're planning a trip to Lake Garda, you absolutely must stay on this side of the lake and at the Cape of Senses - you won't find a better spot anywhere on the lake. While the hotel is new, it doesn't feel cookie-cutter or like it's still trying to get the hang of things - it's truly exceptional. Every member of the hotel staff went out of their way to ensure our stay was nothing short of perfect, particularly Michele - who knew us by name and recommended the best local restaurants. The property is pristine and meticulously maintained but the real draw is the view of Lake Garda and surrounding mountains. We spent most of our days marveling over the picture-perfect and truly breathtaking views - photos really don't do them justice. The Cape of Senses is perfectly situated in the mountains to see the mountains and towns across the lake (on a clear day). The hotel itself is also stunning, immaculate and expertly designed. The rooms are spacious and all have wonderful views of the property and lake. Our room was a Junior Suite located on the ground floor and I was shocked by how large the room was and that we had a secluded patio. The staff cleaned our room at least twice a day and left little treats each night! Such a lovely touch. The included breakfast was a major highlight - to say it's a buffet is a disservice to the incredible array of delicious and homemade foods. The restaurants at the hotel are expensive and we didn't find the menus particularly interesting so we ventured to the nearby towns along the lake (they are a must see!) and took recommendations from Michele! The bar is well-priced with a great menu of light bites and drinks. Plus, at least two of the nights we were there they had live music in the bar area that everyone really loved. If you're looking for a luxury spa experience, this is where to go. The amenities are clean, modern and never feel busy. There's free, guided yoga and stretching in the mornings and the pools are always a good idea. If you're not interested in the pools, sauna or other spa rooms, you can enjoy one of several relaxation rooms, the gym or other gathering areas. No matter where you are on the property, the wifi is great and the air conditioning is also very good for Italy. My biggest recommendations for your stay are to: go to nearby restaurants for dinner; explore the castle in Torri del Benaco and go to breakfast from the moment it opened until it closes. We went the first week of October and the weather was cool but cozy. I cannot recommend Cape of Senses enough!

From start to finish, an excellent 3 night stay overlooking the lake. Staff always helpful and give the impression they enjoy their work, adds so much to a stay. Restaurants were very comfortable, al fresco one night, indoor on the “storm night”. Breakfast selections also very good. Bar selection good, and staff great. They now know a couple of new cocktails…. Suite itself well presented with nice lake views though the wifi was a bit unstable. Not a sticking point for us. Amidst all this good stuff, one word of caution. The drive to get to the lakeside at Torri del Benaco is a nightmare of twists and turns on narrow roads with sharp bends. The hotel does offer a shuttle service but I think on the occasion we used it the driver maybe thought he was Mad Max Verstappen’s brother. Insane despite our requests to take it easy. Return trip (uphill of course) different driver, much better. Overall, this was our first time on this side of the lake, a good stay. However, remain undecided which side next time.

What a find this was. We booked last minute and really chose the hotel because of its easy access to Verona report. We had a fantastic few days. Staff, food and facilities all top class coupled with guest facing and superb management. We actually chose to eat in the hotel rather than go out because we preferred to spend the evening with our new found friends who were serving us! Thank you Alina and to our new friends, Paul at reception and Marco and Michele at the bar. We will return as soon as we can

A new, modern, and truly outstanding 5-star hotel located in the southern part of Lake Garda. In my opinion, it surpasses the Quellenhof, which we found to be overpriced and underwhelming. Hotel Cape of Senses excels in every aspect—the location, the pool, the sun beds, and more. We dined at the hotel every night during our stay, and each meal was as impressive, if not better, than the last. I highly recommend this exceptional hotel for anyone visiting the south of Lake Garda.

This is very new hotel with best view over Garda lake. The interior decoration is very stylish and you can see Garda lake from every room almost from your bed. The room are very clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful with any problem or help needed. Breakfast is very rich. Driving time to Verona is approximately 45 minutes many local restaurants in 10-25 minutes drive. Great hotel!!!!

We stumbled across this hotel having decided to fly from Rhodes and visit lake garda given the fires etc. New hotel so a few minor teething problems but overall a superb stay. Pros: Stunning local and best pools ever Food very good Staff all very professional and pleasant. A special shout out to Giovanni who was super attentive and joined in having a good laugh at dinner time. Receptionists and bar staff lovely. Cons. Food portion sizes at dinner need increasing.
