Residence Arca

Fantastic place , really enjoyed our short stay here, the staff were fantastic especially Felice in reception he helped us after check out when we’d left something in the apartment. The apartment was great, the grounds of the residence were exceptional and really well kept and the pool and restaurant area was really nice. Will certainly return. Loved the place well done Residence Arca

Big property with nice grounds. Really good to have the restaurant on site, nice for morning coffee and croissant. We also fined in the restaurant at night and it was really good and decent value for money. The staff in the reception and restaurant were friendly and helpful. Parking outside the apartment. It was old fashioned style room but nice and clean

The rooms are basic but clean, with lots of towels in the room and good amenities. The restaurant is fantastic as well as the pool area. 25 min walk into bardolino and 15 minutes to the lake. If have accessibility issues this place might not be for you but great otherwise

Comfortable villa on great site a bit up the hill We had a 3 bed villa at the top of the site which was great for our extended family party of 4 adults and 2 kids. it had all the facilies you would want with 2 good bathrooms. Only slight criticism from us Brits was lack of a toaster. The site is well thought out with a great large pool, plenty of sun-loungers, and sunterrace with a good view of pool and lake. Ideal for families who will stay on site most of the time, or use a car to get to places. The location is a 25 min brisk walk from Bardolino centre, or 12 mins from the nearest point of the lake where there is a stont beach. Admin was easy in advance and during our stay. Would come again.

We are a family of 6 (2 adults. 4 children aged 17-12) from Australia. After much research I booked to stay at Arca during our visit to Lake Garda. We really wanted a peaceful, country feel with the amenities of a hotel and also be a walkable location. Arca met those expectations completely. Our apartment was big enough, with 2 bedrooms plus a sofa that converted into 2 single beds. The apartment stayed cool during the day and evening despite the warm weather. It had a functional kitchen and a full sized fridge. We loved the front alfresco overlooking the pool and the lake, very scenic and relaxing. It was a 20-25 minute walk into Bardolino or Garda, but for either you are walking down the hill and then back up for return, which we liked for the exercise - but does mean a quick walk into town for groceries can be a little arduous. The onsite restaurant is excellent for family dining and is really well priced with fabulous views over the lake and at sunset. The apartment was clean and beds were made. There is also onsite bike hire and a laundry. The grounds are beautiful with lots of olive trees and greenery. Can highly recommend if you want to experience the country feel of Garda but still be close enough to the towns and walkable to the lake.

Overall, this was fine. The positives were that it was clean, beautiful views across the Lake from the balcony.. however it is quite a walk into Bardolino, and we were very glad that we had hired a car. The apartment definitely isn’t classy, it is very much more basic and functional but for us this was fine. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was the quality of the Wi-Fi. I travel a lot personally and with Work, and solid Wi-Fi is something which I now expect everywhere. The Wi-Fi in the apartment and around the pool was fine for basic browsing, but we weren’t able to stream anything for any period of time at any point.

Property was lovely and clean. Suited our needs. Staff friendly and helpful. Maybe a once day shuttle service into Bardalino would be great with a once day collection and return. Would recommend.

A location we head to for over 20 years now and seen our children grow up through the fantastic backdrop to the lake that this venue provides. Food, bar, pool, hospitality,cleanliness, never faltered through out these years and my now grown up children still come with us with their partners so not to miss out ☺️ Yes it’s up steep hills so you can experience this fab view, if you are not driving you can easily get taxis, it’s so worth it it for this hidden gem that is 15 mins walk from the fabulous bardolino or Garda.
