Palazzo Arzaga Golf

Between Lake Garda and the rolling moraine hills of lower Brescia

#LakeGarda#LuxuryResort#27Holes
The Club

Between Lake Garda and the rolling moraine hills of lower Brescia, Palazzo Arzaga expresses resort golf in a composed, international and highly legible way. The estate combines quality hospitality, spa comfort, silence and two complementary golfing moods: a championship course and additional holes that make a stay more flexible and complete. The main layout tests the quality of your decisions more than your appetite for spectacle, with broad greens, clearly defined lines and a rhythm that alternates patient construction with more openly aggressive opportunities. The overall experience is less theatrical than some Mediterranean resorts; what prevails here is a feeling of order, comfort and continuity. Palazzo Arzaga works especially well for high-end travellers seeking an elegant base, access to Lake Garda and golf that is serious enough to justify the journey. It is a destination built on balance rather than excess.

Beyond the Green

Exclusive Experiences

Secrets found in no guidebook, curated by our concierge.

Wine

Zenato — Verticale di Lugana Sergio Zenato

San Benedetto di Lugana, Brescia · 10 min dal club

The Zenato family has produced since 1960 the Lugana Riserva Sergio Zenato: a white wine that over 20 years develops notes of hydrocarbons, toasted almond, and acacia honey with no parallel among Italian whites. The winery is 10 minutes from the club, on the lake's edge.

Insider Tip

Alberto Zenato opens the historic reserve — bottles from the 1980s still in the cellar — only for local guests introduced by someone who knows the family. Best approach: ask the Club sommelier to act as intermediary.

Wellness

QC Terme Sirmione — Le Grotte di Catullo

Sirmione, Lago di Garda · 15 min dal club

Italy's most evocative thermal spa sits at the entrance to the Grotte di Catullo — the 1st-century BC Roman villa on the tip of the Sirmione peninsula. Natural sulphurous waters at 37°C, rising directly from the lake bed, feed outdoor pools with views of Roman ruins and the Alps.

Insider Tip

Early entry at 8am — one hour before standard opening — is reserved for partner club guests. At that hour, the outdoor lake pools are completely empty, with the morning mist still lying on the Garda.

Secret Spot

Isola del Garda — Villa Cavazza in Barca Privata

Isola del Garda, Lago di Garda · 20 min dal club

Lake Garda's largest private island — owned by the Cavazza family since 880 — holds a Venetian neo-Gothic villa within some of Italy's most refined gardens: Lebanese cedars, century-old magnolias, and terraces over the lake. St Francis established a monastery here in the 13th century: the aura of the place is still palpable.

Insider Tip

The Cavazza family organises private dinners on the panoramic terrace for invited groups. The contact is island manager Luca, through referrals from clubs on the Brescia shore.
