Villa Elena is a bed and breakfast in Desenzano del Garda, on Lake Garda, about 1 km from Rivoltella Beach and 3.4 km from the Sirmione thermal baths.
The property is designed for those looking for a quiet stay in a homely setting, a short distance from the historic center and the lakeside promenade. The garden with terrace offers views of the surrounding hills, and is a communal space appreciated by guests for relaxing after a day of sightseeing or beach time. The on-site bike rental allows guests to explore the area independently, while the private parking on site makes arriving by car easier.
The rooms, all with private bathroom, balcony and air conditioning, differ mainly in size and view, which can be of the surrounding mountains or of the lake. Each room is equipped with a flat-screen TV and soundproofing, for a comfortable stay whether as a couple or in small groups. Breakfast, served every morning in Italian buffet style, is included in the stay. Desenzano Castle and the San Martino della Battaglia Tower can be reached in just a few minutes by car, making Villa Elena a practical base for discovering the lower Garda area.
Villa Elena offers three room types, all equipped with private bathroom, air conditioning, balcony, flat-screen TV and soundproofing: common features that ensure a comfortable stay regardless of the choice. The main differences relate to size, capacity and the view enjoyed from the balcony.
The Triple Room with Private Bathroom is the largest, at 30 m² and with space for three people, designed for small groups or families traveling together. The two Double Rooms with Private Bathroom, both 22 m² and designed for two guests, differ from each other in the view: one looks toward the mountains, the other toward the lake, a detail that can make a difference for those seeking a specific panorama during their stay. In all rooms, the view from the balcony is a distinctive element compared to other options in the area.
