If you're wondering where to spend your next weekend or you are desperately trying to find a romantic getaway to impress your loved one, here is the solution!
Day 1: We started our trip early in the morning because it was a long way to get to our hotel in Gardone Riviera. We spent the whole day there
Hotel Ville Montefiori
@giuliamartini
We got super lucky because they offered us to stay in the attic: a small, little room accessible through an outside spiral staircase . The hotel itself is quite nice, with all necessary comfort, a swimming pool and a beautiful garden with a breathtaking view on the lake (the hotel is up on a hill so it offers an amazing view but it is distant from the lake itself). Breakfast was included in the price and I can't complain: it was the typical international breakfast with a good array of food displayed and choices of freshly cooked meals.

We spent the early afternoon browsing around the small town, captivated by the amusing view of the lake. I recommend getting tickets to get on a boat trip and enjoy the view from another perspective.
Vittoriale degli Italiani
@giuliamartini
We then walked all the way up to Il Vittoriale degli Italiani, a creation of Gabriele D'Annunzio in 1921 to remember the Italian endeavour during World War I and the " inimitable life" of the poet-soldier. There is no need to book the ticket in advance if you're not in a group but I still suggest to buy the tickets online to cut the queue. Plan to stay and visit for at least a couple of hours just to make sure that you don't miss a single bit of this amazing place. There are hidden spots everywhere and you want to make sure to get to the top where you can enjoy an amazing view.

Ristorante La Veranda - Garda Lake Collection

DINNER / LUNCH ON THE LAKE SHORES : I know that choosing the right place to eat is always a hard one but I think I have the right restaurant this time. Try it out and then let me know: it is not just good food but it is also great service and an amazing location with a deck out in the lake. We went for dinner so we missed the amazing view out in the sun, hence I suggest you go for lunch / early dinner so you can enjoy the sun and the relaxed atmosphere.

DAY 2: We drove down along the lake shores to reach our second destination, Sirmione
Sirmione
@giuliamartini
There is not much to say about this place except that everywhere you go looks like you're in a fairytale. The whole town is quite small, so it will only take half a day to visit it but do take your time because every street, every shore and every monument requires attention and time.
