Castello del Sole Beach Resort & SPA

I honestly can't recommend this fantastic Resort enough, got engaged last weekend and stayed the weekend, and we loved it and truly have no complaints, the personal was friendly and very accommodating, the room was just lovely and the dinner, my god, the whole experience was just amazing. Thank you to everyone there who made our engagement weekend unforgettable.

We spent five days at Castello del Sole and had a wonderful time. We especially loved the tranquility, the sustainable concept, and the warm, welcoming staff. The highlight of our stay was definitely the OTTER - an e-bike we used to explore the lake, which was an incredibly exciting experience! We will definitely be back!

I have never been more conflicted about a resort.||On the one hand, Castello del Sole is beautiful property with staff members who go out of their way to try to make sure you have the best possible stay. The food was also excellent.||Unfortunately, there were three issues during our stay that we couldn’t ignore:||1. We found the rooms uncomfortable. The queen bed in our junior suite were two hard singles pushed together. I realize this is often European style accommodation but I haven’t seen it in a hotel of this supposed caliber. The air conditioning was also antiquated and barely seemed to function. We did not sleep well here or feel relaxed.||2. There was a fraudulent bar charge to our room. Mistaken charges are common and are typically no big deal. This bill had our last name and room number on it in someone else’s handwriting. We never went to the bar even once and fortunately the staff quickly removed the charge but it made us concerned that this might be someone on the staff. ||3. This is the toughest thing to write but if you are brown (or any other minority), you might think twice about coming here. We were the only minorities at the resort and felt a bit like we were cultural oddities that got stares from the other guests. And before anyone chimes in, we stay at the nicest resorts in the world, dress the part, and know how to behave in such settings. It especially made my kids feel deeply uncomfortable and again, they have traveled all over the world. Know what you are getting into here before you book.

Amazing venue. Stefano from the beach bar is incredible. Today, he did a spontaneous mocktail workshop with 5 kids and everyone was absolutely excited. Thanks a lot for a wonderful day!

Breathtaking property with professionell staff that were always very attentive. DAVIDE from Concierge Was extremly helpful at all times! His recomemdations in the City was really great. We took the e-bikes to the City and back. The beach Bar was out of this World. Breakfast spread was very good.

Amazing place, I think one of the best hotels I’ve ever been to. What really was fascinating, is how this place works, majority of the ingredients is grown there on the spot. There are vineyards, gardens, lake side. Service is amazing and you feel happy there. I especially I want to mention Samuel the bar chef, who is an amazing person and told so much about the place and drinks. We took ebikes to visit Locarno as well, which was great. I like the small details: how they gave us small presents, how flowers are changed every day, everything for us to feel care and importance. I will definitely come back.

The Hotel is, without a doubt, one of the finest hotels we've had the pleasure of staying in. Everything here exudes quiet luxury – not the flashy kind, but the kind that whispers “old money” and glides rather than walks.||The service is immaculate. Never fussy, always flawlessly timed, the staff knows when to appear and assist and, more importantly, when not to. The rooms? Spotless, polished, and so well maintained they could pass for brand new. The food is delicious. There's a sense of space and privacy throughout – you can truly relax here, and that’s becoming harder to find these days. ||If we had to point out one, it would be this: with great luxury comes a certain kind of guest. This is the sort of place where fellow guests don’t so much greet you as assess you. A raised brow here, a barely perceptible glance there – one feels not unwelcome, but rather under review. Still, it’s all part of the charm. If you’ve ever wanted to star in your own episode of “The Tastefully Dressed Stranger Who May or May Not Belong Here,” this is your stage.||In short: Castello del Sole is exceptional. A haven of taste, peace, and unspoken expectations.

Super friendly, rural finca style luxury, discreetly located between vineyard with winery and golf course. Went for drinks & bruschetta at the private beach and loved the atmosphere of secluded paradise.
