Relaxing like royalty - anyone who enters the Grand Hotel Fasano on Lake Garda inevitably gets a whiff of royal air. The old castle was built in 1888 as a hunting lodge for the Austrian imperial family. Now, on its 135th birthday, the spectacular building is getting a special gift: a brand-new wellness area.

AQVA SPA 2.0

In 2007, the wellness center AQVA SPA opened its doors for the first time. Just in time for its 15th anniversary, it got an extensive luxury makeover. As a result, the old spa is hardly recognizable. The existing premises have not only been thoroughly renovated, the area has also been expanded to include a number of highlights. The new wellness oasis measures over 3,500 square meters. This guarantees for royal relaxation.

"The concept that a wellness center is not a single unit, but consists of different areas that have been designed individually and functionally, is the distinguishing feature of the new AQVA SPAs", raves homeowner Olliver Mayr in conversation with Falstaff TRAVEL.

Water fun and XL sauna area

The new AQVA SPA features 5 different areas. In addition to an indoor pool, and a panoramic whirlpool, a family steam bath is available in the indoor area. In the future, guests will be able to swim from the indoor to the outdoor area through an adventure tunnel. In both the heated and unheated outdoor pools, you can gaze into the distance and over Lake Garda, and take a few laps along the way.

The third area is the large sauna area. Aside from the classic Finnish sauna, a Roman steam bath, a Vitarium (a herbal steam bath), and a Tepidarium (a hot relaxation room) has been installed. After the sauna session, you can cool off in the cold water pool or in the showers. In the wellness buffet area, refreshments are provided as well.

In addition to all of the wellness options, the Grand Hotel Fasano also offers facilities for relaxation. In the future, you can choose between the winter garden or a relaxation room. 

A sauna session or relaxing in the steam bath are both wonderful, and yet the best way to really unwind is through personal and individual treatments. In addition to Ayurvedic treatments, the hotel is now also using beauty products from a French manufacturer to offer guests the most comprehensive experience possible.
