The hotel was clean, the room was great with a well stocked bar, and spacious bathroom with walk in shower. The spa services were good as was the service from the hotel staff. I loved the direct access to the stunning lake. Would love to go back.

We loved our stay at Splendido Bay, the location on the lake is beautiful. We enjoyed some fabulous meals, the food in Ravale and Aqua Riva very good, we did feel service could be improved in both these restaurants, a bit more attention to detail was all that was required, for example, the filling of wine glasses and descriptions of food on serving. Drinks at the bar a high point, served by the fabulous Danilo, an asset to the resort. Rooms very comfortable and keep to a great standard. Would definitely return.

Very disappointing
We were on our honeymoon and it wasn’t even acknowledged, they actually put us in a room above the kitchen and restaurant which was noisy up until midnight. There was no air conditioning and we couldn’t open the window because of all of the noise beneath us. We were treated completely differently to Chinese and German guests staying there and it was obvious they wouldn’t give us the time of day. They provided these other guests with nicer rooms and better service. I complained about the room and also that the restaurant offering room service being closed on our first night (after a 9hr drive!) we were told to eat I. Their expensive posh restaurant or go out and get pizza!

Overall, A Nice and Relaxing Break
Nice and relaxing stay in the Splendido Bay. Breakfast was delightful, Spa treatments were fabulous although indoor pool and spa area was closed for renovations, room and hotel was lovely and clean although completely overpriced, Pool and lake access was lovely. Reception staff not of a 5* standard. Not very helpful at all. Lunch was very poor and staff were quite pushy.

The pool area was so unique. The pool was very small but the pool area was shaded (much needed as it was 90 degrees). It was more of a quiet hang out area. The staff went way out of their way to assist us with breakfast before an early train. The rooms were very clean and the shower, towels and bed were comfortable.

Splendido bay resort is an amazing little gem. It offers top-notch service and amenities nestled in a quieter area of Lake Garda yet very easily accessible to all the main attractions and restaurants. It has beautiful lake views and is right on a little beach/pier. The pool is lovely and the staff are all friendly and attentive. The food was always excellent. I would definitely return and highly recommend this resort!

Really great five star place with modern refurbished rooms friendly and discrete staff, great breakfast and conveniently located at the lake. Swim inside, outside or in the Garda lake. Wonderful. Rent a bike and visit Desenzano. Plenty of restaurants nearby. Top. Hope to go back for a longer stay soon!

Nice resort
Overall we enjoyed our stay. The location, accommodations and service were very good. Our family of 4 had booked the family suite, which were two adjoining rooms. There was plenty of space and amenities. The area itself was a little lacking in activities.

Splendido was Splendid!
This is the best hotel I have stayed in for a long time and although it is not cheap, it was excellent value for money considering its facilities, idylic setting, excellent food and first class staff and service. Parking was, no extra charge and a fabulous breakfast was included in the room rate. My family had suffered a very poor quality hotel in Santa Margherita only a few days before traveling to Lake Garda so Splendido did much to make up for our earlier disappointment and I will definitely return next year.

Splendid Bay
Our stay at Splendido bay was relaxing with beautiful views across the lake, recently rennovated and new owners to the property has made a big difference. They have added 2 new restaurants and the food is quality, a little overpriced but worth it. Poolside bar is also an addition with afternoon snacks. All staff polite and attentive at all times with no exception spared. Have been to this hotel 4 times, 3 when it was Relais Emilliano and this time as Splendido Bay, and will definitely stay here again

A FANTASTIC family trip to Splendido Bay!!
From the moment you check in at the hotel you are greeted by amazing front of house staff who take care of everything. Friendly, professional and welcoming... The hotel is a tranquil place but with families and couples... it is definitely 5 STAR - from the picturesque setting to the restaurants and bar and the hotel rooms (we had a 1 bedroom suite). Unlike so many hotels, we never had to scramble for a lounger by the pool as there is so much space (this was in AUGUST!) There is an outdoor and indoor pool and both are large and immaculate. Our children (8yrs and 6yrs) loved the place and the staff really take the time to make the trip great for kids as well as adults (but there are not too many kids running around - in fact you don't even notice the ones that are there!!) We ate in the main restaurant twice and the restaurant in the hotel grounds (Il Rivale) and both were top quality. The drinks are also VERY reasonably priced - we are sued to paying Dubai prices so paying 25 euros for a decent bottle of wine was cheap at half the price! We also hired a boat and the hotel arranged that for us - they picked us up and dropped us back at the hotel. The hotel offer a shuttle service. You may use this free at certain set times but for 20 euros a night outside the normal times it is worth every penny... we mainly ate in Desenzano which is only 3 miles away and has LOTS of bars, restaurants and shops.... simply call the hotel and they will send the shuttle service for you

A beautiful hotel on the lake
Finding the hotel was very easy as was checking in, helped by an upgrade as soon as we arrived which was much needed as would have been difficult otherwise with a 10m old baby. The hotel staff were very helpful, the food very nice in all restaurants (even room service was a high standard). The swimming pool area/general gardens were very well maintained and whilst I didn't use the spa (only the gym) it also looked very clean and offered lots of treatments. The gym was small and let down by lack of equipment but If you like running machines/ x-trainers then it's fine and rarely used. I believe all the rooms are ground floor, we had a corner plot with a garden facing the Lake, great for a baby wanting to crawl everywhere and also giving you extra privacy if needed. The rooms themselves where nice especially as we had a 2 bed villa with tiny lounge area, this enabled us to put the cot in the 2nd room and having some space left for ourselves. NOTE: Whilst we didn't have a problem getting our baby to sleep, there is a beachbar/club the other side of the Lake, which despite being a fair distance away generates a lot of noise, it did calm down 10.30pm but we went at the start of the summer so would expect that to get worse or better depends what side of the age bracket your on.

Lovely hotel with excellent spa facilities
We had a really good experience staying at the hotel. The staff were more more than happy to help. We had a problem with the shuttle that we booked going back from the hotel to the airport and the friendly staff arranged their own driver to take us back to the airport in good time for our flight without charging us a single euro. This was such a good gesture. Thanks you so much for all your help and making our stay very special. Would definitely come back.
