Situated 600 feet above Lake Garda, Italy, Cape of Senses recently opened its doors. The adult-only spa hideaway offers spectacular views of the lake and mountains and year-round relaxation and regeneration, encouraging guests to slow down and reconnect with their senses in a tranquil setting.
Combining simplistic elegance with traditional Italian flare, the family-owned hotel, designed by architects and interior designers Hugo and Alessia Demetz, is comprised of 55 suites boasting floor-to-ceiling glass windows with stunning Mediterranean views.
Key features range from private pools, jacuzzis, and free-standing bathtubs to wellbeing rooms, sunbathing and lounge areas, and rooftop terraces.
Each of the following suites have been constructed with natural materials and colors: 22 Junior Suites, 22 Suites, seven Signature SPA Suites, two Sky Suites with jacuzzis, and two Sky Pool Suites with private swimming pools on their rooftop terraces.
For ultimate relaxation, the property features the 21,000 square-foot Senses Spa, offering a holistic concept with an extensive range of facilities including pools, a sauna, a fitness area, treatment rooms, and relaxation rooms, along with a spa library and spa garden.
Centuries-old olive trees and lush Mediterranean vegetation extend throughout the area, where loungers, a sports pool, and a yoga platform invite guests to relax, providing the perfect atmosphere for daily yoga classes and meditation sessions.
Travelers are also invited to unwind at the outdoor, private heated infinity pool and jacuzzi overlooking the lake, or venture inside to the connected indoor pool.
In terms of dining, Cape of Senses is home to two restaurants, Al Tramonto and Osteria La Pergola, for guests to experience both fine dining and locally sourced Mediterranean cuisine. Additionally, a lounge bar and bistro area serve light refreshments daily. A separate area has also been designed to host meetings and small events.
Bespoke experiences offered by the lakeside hideaway include a private dinner on a lake jetty and vineyard picnic, to a private sailing tour or cooking class in the local community, and more. Travelers can also enjoy local tours to Verona (only 25 minutes away), Torri del Benaco, Garda, Venice, and Milan, as well as activities including hiking tours, golf, yoga, and meditation.
