Parco San Marco Lifestyle Beach Resort

This is a review of the Hotel and its grounds and facilities. I have reviewed its restaurants separately. The staff here are just exceptional and the whole team should be very proud. You are always met by a warm greeting from the gardeners to the front of house team. Really good management and customer focus. The room was good with a panoramic view of the lake. The large terrace was enjoyed. Breakfast is almost too good to try and review it! The fresh tea range (no ghastly dust in tea bags) was so good - bought in from Germany. Other basics like bread were up there with top Swiss hotels/bakeries. The range of meats, cheeses, fruit and cereals must meet even the most fussy breakfast taker. The grounds are beautiful. The adult only pool is huge and was mainly very peaceful. Two tips. Parking bays at the top level are wider and nearer most rooms. Ask to be well up the site and not down near the road. It is extraordinary that a complex that can house over 400 guests seems so quiet once you leave its core. Tribute to an excellent architectural design and clever planing and the retention of many good trees,

A very special resort in a truly amazing location. I visited with my family (4 of us), staying for six nights. I cannot say enough about this resort. From the moment you arrive you feel comfortable and happy. Even on our first day when we had to wait out a thunderstorm we could make use of the indoor pool and spa, or just sit and watch the spectacle in the mountains around us. The staff are all so polite, friendly and willing to help- great with our daughters, keeping them entertained whilst we enjoyed the delicious breakfast buffet or evening meal. The pizza restaurant is a brilliant place to try, a great choice, all freshly made with some gelato available too. There is so much to do around the resort. There is a host of water activities including the chance to get into the lake (or jump if you wish). We made use of the club bimbambino, with our children not wanting to leave! The rooms were great, clean, cool and perfect for their purpose. We rented a car to travel around, Lugano is around 10 minutes drive away, we also headed over to Mount Tamaro and the incredible water park and coaster bob! This is perhaps my favourite holiday, ever. It is just wonderful, cannot recommend enough!

We absolutely loved our time at Parco San Marco. Highlights were the beach area (beautiful, neat and with lovely bars and restaurants), the staff (every single one was polite, helpful and charming), the views (wherever you are you’re surrounded by stunning vistas of the lake and the mountains) and the breakfast (I recommend the terrace and trying as much of the buffet as possible!). And although the hotel was full or close to full it still felt peaceful and calm. Can’t recommend enough, will definitely be booking again.

I am becoming increasingly convinced that the hotel industry in Italy is one of the most professional and friendly in Europe. At the San Marco it was all very well organised and welcoming. The rooms/suite which we had for 5 days for our family including our small Cocker Spaniel were very clean, modern, spacious and well thought out. The restaurants are great and the same friendly, professional standards were visible throughout the resort. We really enjoyed our stay and have decided to return on our way to the South of France next year if possible. Our thanks to the wonderful staff who all combined to make our stay memorable and relaxing

The most beautiful scenery combined with lovely private beach with spectacular view. Great fun for kids by the lake. Lots of activities including hiking and tennis. Breakfast buffet is very high quality. Enthusiastic, friendly and helpful staff.
