Location & what to see

Residenza Elisa is located in the historic centre of Desenzano del Garda, the liveliest town on the Brescia shore of the lake, a short walk from the lakefront and Desenzano Castle, just 150 metres from the property. All around, narrow streets, shops and venues stretch out, staying open until late in the evening during the summer months, while during the day the market and small squares of the old town offer a glimpse of everyday life in Desenzano. The central location makes the property a good reference point for those who want to get around on foot without needing a car.

Desenzanino Beach can be reached in a few minutes on foot, about 650 metres away, while Desenzano del Garda-Sirmione railway station is just 900 metres away, convenient for those arriving by train from Milan or Verona.

For those travelling by plane, Montichiari airport is about 15 km away, while Verona-Villafranca airport is about 27 km away.

In the summer months, the proximity to Lake Garda makes the area ideal for walks along the lakefront, boat trips and swimming at nearby beaches such as Rivoltella or Lido di Lonato. In every season it is worth visiting the Grottoes of Catullus, just past Sirmione, and the Scaligero Castle with its fortress on the water. History enthusiasts can venture as far as the Tower of San Martino della Battaglia, about 7 km away, built in memory of the Risorgimento battles fought in the area in the 19th century. The centre of Desenzano itself also offers museums and historic sites that can be visited on foot in a few hours.
