Four fantastic villas with private pools in the Italian Lakes

Whether you’re looking for a villa for a larger group, or simply want some privacy for your morning swim (along with a guaranteed sun-bed) — we’ve curated a list of fantastic properties on Lake Garda, all of which have their own private swimming pool.

Villa le Selve, Lake Garda 

This luxury three bed villa is surrounded by green hills, and overlooks Lake Garda and the quaint village of Gaino. Renovated in 2008, it’s a contemporary villa with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing break. The flexible accommodation can sleep up to eight guests, making it an ideal villa for families or larger groups.

The villa includes a wellness area with large whirlpool tub, Finnish sauna, large shower and relaxation area with loungers. Outside, the villa boasts a stunning infinity pool and another whirlpool tub — both with fantastic views across the lake.

Villa Storica, Lake Garda

This luxury four bedroom villa is surrounded by lush green hills and overlooks Monte Baldo and Lake Garda. Recently renovated, it still retains its traditional charm — whilst having all of the amenities guests could possibly want during their stay.

Outside, there’s a heated jacuzzi, swimming pool, dining area and BBQ, all with spectacular views of the lake below. The villa is ideally located for exploring the local area; the Vittoriale degli italiani has an outdoor theatre with a fantastic summer season, the city of Brescia is nearby with numerous cultural events, and every May the Mille Miglia runs — a racing event for vintage cars. The location makes it the perfect place to stay for keen hikers and water sports lovers alike.
