About Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda

Located along Italy's northern coast, in the charming lakefront town of Gargnano, the Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda sits on 27 acres of lush parkland, surrounded by rolling hills, vast woods, and fruitful olive trees and lemon groves. Inspired by the concept of overall wellness, Lefay was designed and built using environmentally friendly practices, and the resort offers ample opportunities for guests to invigorate and rejuvenate in the beauty of its natural landscape.

The spa is the centerpiece of the resort, and is divided into three areas: Acqua e Fuoco, Natura e Fitness, and Nel Silenzio e fra le Stelle: Trilogia nell'Aria, which comprise hydrotherapy and heat treatment areas, a full-service fitness center, and outdoor wellness paths and gardens.

With the scenic Lake Garda as its backdrop, Lefay's 90 guest accommodations offer water views, and guests can dine on healthful, Mediterranean cuisine at the two on-site restaurants.

The 3,000-square-meter spa features 21 treatment rooms, including two private dual suites, five different types of sauna--steam bath, bio, aromatic, Finnish, and women's sauna--and three relaxation areas, including a veranda overlooking lake views. The spa's hydrotherapy area comprises a whirlpool, Kneipp path, ice fountain, saltwater swimming pools, and a salt-water lake rich in Dead Sea salt.

My husband took me to Lefay and we had a truly wonderful time. It is very private and the views over the lake are just incredible. Our stay was quite romantic as we had a few treatments together in the private spa. It was based on a Greek legend about a couple in love which gave the whole experience a romantic feel. Our afternoon ended in a grotto with a glass of sweet wine and biscuits. It was a very special weekend!

I highly recommend this spa resort if you are looking to de-stress in the most beautiful surroundings. The resort is built into the hillside and it overlooks the stunning Lake Garda and charming villages – this is probably the most striking region of Italy I’ve ever been to. I was particularly impressed by Lefay’s decor which was light and airy but very authentic and elegant. I found the staff friendly and helpful; nothing was too much trouble for them. My stay started with an energy interview which was very insightful and I was recommended a programme of treatments to help me de-stress. Energy massages and facial treatments were fabulous - they were gentle but I was impressed how effective they were after just a few days. The exercise and activity offering is excellent. There are daily exercise classes and a fantastic fitness studio that overlooks the lake. My favourite areas were the salt water lake pool and saunas, as well as the energy and therapeutic garden which I found very spiritual.The food was absolutely delicious. They offer a variety of traditional and seasonal Italian dishes, as well as a lighter menu. My stay was truly wonderful. I felt relaxed and re-energised and I would recommend Lefay to everyone looking for an authentic and stylish Italian holiday combined with great treatments.
