Residence Barbara in Moniga del Garda, open June–November.
Your guests arrive at Residence Barbara to find themselves on the shores of Lake Garda, where the hotel's lakefront location means morning coffee overlooking Alpine peaks and evening aperitivos with water views.
The property offers 40 rooms across its grounds, giving your wedding party genuine space to spread out and make memories between ceremonies and celebrations.
This is a working hotel that understands hospitality—your guests won't just attend your wedding; they'll experience a three-day retreat.
A nice apartment complex, well equipped with a pool and a bar. The outdoor areas are nice and the surroundings are quiet. The rooms are a bit old, but do their job well. The location isn’t great, as it is far from the city centre and it is quite a walk to the lake, and the nearest beach is hidden and hard to find.
