Amazing Italian villa with a huge and beautiful garden with pool and sauna. Nice, stylish and comfortable rooms. Parking and bike storage available free of charge. Free water with or w/o bubbles available on site. Rafael the owner and his adorable dog was very welcoming and helpful. No wishes stayed unanswered. We were a group of 12 and all were very satisfied with everything. Rafael even helped us with bike rentals and sorted out small issues we had. The villa is located within a 10-12 min healthy walk from the centre of Riva. Absolutely perfect, we would go back any time.

The property is beautiful with lovely grounds and excellent facilities, like the sauna, table football, table tennis, bikes you can borrow and washing service. Lovely swimming pool too, although more for dipping than being big enough to do lengths. Nice location being a little out of town and the walk or cycle back up isn’t too strenuous. Rafael is a very friendly and helpful host too, we had a wonderful stay and very much enjoyed Lake Garda.

Our only difficult was not having air conditioning when it was really hot at the start of our trip, and being on the third floor it was quite hot. Fans are provided and it is in the description of course so not a complaint.

Amazing location - close to town but quiet, and we beautiful. Rafael was a great host - so welcoming and gave great recommendations in the area. Will be back in a heartbeat!

Nothing!

Rafael and Angelica are absolutely perfect hosts. I can’t say enough good things about them. The apartment was absolutely spotless and the grounds are a slice of paradise away from the busy town of Riva. We walked to the centre in around 20 mins, and by car in about five. This location was great for us - close to the mountains and the lake! The icing on the cake for us was how dog friendly the place is. We have a nervous rescue dog and he was very happy with his new dog friends and the security of the gardens! A great stay and we will definitely return.

Nothing, it was great.

We stayed here with a group of 12 friends & family between 16-20 May. Amazing villa in a beautiful garden with pool and sauna at the feet of the mountains located within a 15 min walk to downtown Riva. The villa has stylish and spacious bedrooms. Rafael is an extremely nice and helpful host, we had no wishes unanswered and his dog Kaja is adorable. Rafael helped us with the bike rentals and we could store and charge the bikes on site. Parking is also available on site and is free of charge.

A gorgeous old manor house with a olde worlde charm that has been converted into holiday apartments. It is surrounded by a beautifully tended garden with swimming pool and sauna. We received a very warm welcome from our host who was always willing to provide advice and suggestions on how to make most of our stay.

No negative impressions at all

The caretaker of the property was a man named Rafael and from the moment we arrived until check out he was extremely friendly, careing and helpful. We were traveling as a larger family with our two dogs and Rafael was accomodating and helpful, he went above and beyond our expectations to be sure we were settled in and everyone was comfortable. The villa is authentic and relaxing, we left feeling refreshed and really enjoyed our stay at Villa Angelica.

Nothing, the Villa Angelica exceeded our expectations.

Perfect location - few minutes walk/bike ride/car from caffes, restaurants, city center. The pool and gardens are beautiful, quite and relaxing with sunbeds as well as corners with tables to sit and eat outside. The apartment was specially designed, spacious and had anything we needed for cooking our meals. The kids loved to run around and the games outside.

The villa is a wonderful building, restored with love for details and staying true to its architecture and surroundings. There is also a huge garden with olive trees and bee hives. By bike, one needs only 10 minutes to get to the center of Riva. Lago di Tenno is only 10 km away. Very important: the dogs are not only allowed by they are welcome and this makes a huge difference :)

Property is located right above the city about 1 kilometer from the lake our view from the back of the villa was not disturbed my houses but a view of the majestic mountains absolutely stunning! We were greeted by the owner who showed us the facilities, and how various utilities worked in the room. We stayed in a suite that had been built in the 1300s, so use of the air-conditioning was not needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with sharp knifes, no stick pans and big sized drinking glasses, I mention this because our other travels left us often to having to shop at local stores to acquire these simple necessities. The bed was very cozy, and our room was quiet. As far as the grounds, the villa is situated on 5 acres of land, all well manicured with beautiful sculptures and flowering plants. We had the pool to ourselves as well as the sauna with a view of the mountains. We will definitely visit again. I must mention you can pre-order Tiramisù that his mother makes herself (a must-have) you can grab vine or prosecco 24hs, and very dog friendly as well! Thank you, Rafael!

Stayed Longer :)
