Meet Max & Federica

Designed by an architect with an obsession for the details and managed by a former software developer, so it’s always in “beta” – ongoing.

“What we wanted to do is renovate an old building and rediscover the spirit of the first 1930 guest house. In the process, we decided to move in and live here, we like to imagine this place as a chance to meet people, talk abour our ideas & belifies and share big & little secrets of Sirmione “

“For someone, it’s a small hotel, but for us it’s still a big house.”

Home

We call it home and it is really like that. The first decision we made was to move in and share the rest of our space & time with a few people. The hotel is our own place but there are many others in the surroundings that we feel as part of us and we love to share it with you, but we also know that to make you feel at home one night is not enough, so this is why we usually have a minimum stay.

Small is Great

Modern architecture and brightness, marbles and natural wood, design furniture, and attention to details shape a unique atmosphere, but what really makes us different is the dimension of the experience: only 18 rooms. 

Intimate not Exclusive

This is a small intimate place and mainly an adult retreat. We conceived the hotel as an open villa for couples & friends to enjoy a relaxing time for an entire holiday or to get away just for a couple of days.

We choose not to work with travel agencies, our reservations come only from private individuals. Groups & Events are carefully selected and hosted in low season periods and always in a small number.

Luxury = Time

We believe that the most valuable things in the world are not things, and time for us is the most valuable one. Unlike gold, no one can sell you some and it doesn’t shine by itself, it’s what you do with it that makes it valuable. We don’t scream luxury, we try our best to make it easy for you to live precious time here by providing special space but also a special time, giving you constant presence, assistance, and help.

Community

Even if a hotel is not a private club, we really like to think of our guests as part of our community, a small group of like-minded people that comprehend the concept of this place and share the same ideas & values. Our hotel is a place for recovery and relaxation and we choose to welcome couples & adults, if we have some restrictions we do it for the respect & comfort of our few guests.

In-House Guests Only

Design according to scale and common sense are our two main drivers. For us is simple: few people mean more comfort, so the bar, the restaurant, and the pool, the jetty area are for in-house guests only. The minimalist approach set free space in your room, – there are so many things at home anyway –. Our breakfast is a fine selection of homemade deli, seasonal fresh fruit, and quality Italian coffee.

Responsability + Sustainability

Sirmione is literally a delicate balance on the water; we witness climate change every day, and every choice we make is important. Starting from small things like paper straws to a 30 kWh solar roof, from bamboo toothbrushes to local and seasonal food. We’ve been certified by GSTC, and we are fully committed to becoming carbon neutral by the end of 2028. You can be part of it in many ways, starting by choosing a sustainable mobility preference and leaving your car at home; we are happy to help. Here are our efforts.
