Villa Serenova
Our Story
Est. 1998
A Vision of
Timeless Beauty
Villa Serenova was born from a simple dream: to create a place where discerning travellers could find not just comfort, but genuine restoration. In 1998, the Marchetti family transformed a 19th-century lakeside manor into what has become one of Europe's most awarded boutique hotels.
Each expansion — from the addition of the spa pavilion in 2004 to the opening of Restaurant Séréna in 2011 — has been guided by the same principle: never compromise, never rush. Quality takes time.
Today, 25 years on, Villa Serenova stands as a testament to what is possible when passion and purpose align. We remain family-owned, fiercely independent, and committed to the art of welcome.

Rooted in Nature
Our hotel was built in harmony with its landscape. We source locally, protect our ecosystem, and let nature shape every design decision.
