I have to say this hotel experience was a 10 out of 10.
The kids amenities were amazing, the location is perfect and the food was spectacular. They have an indoor water slide, free child care and activities, and a feeding and cleaning room for babies.
I will be going back to another Falkenstiener property in the future.
A brand new resort with fantastic architecture and interior design. Very good pools and fitness centre. A very relaxed market style restaurant if you book half board - very different from the gourmet dining concept that we experienced in other Falkensteiner resorts, but perfect for us as a family.
In August 2026, we still experienced a few teething issues and a bit of building noise, but as expected straight after opening.
We stayed at Falkensteiner Resort Lake Garda beginning August 2 and had an absolutely incredible experience. We knew the resort had opened only about a week before our arrival, so we were a little nervous about what to expect, but everything exceeded our expectations. The staff, service, facilities, pools, restaurants, rooms, spa, and gym were all open, finished, and beautifully done. The rooftop restaurant views are impeccable, and the buffet restaurant had some of the best food we experienced anywhere on our trip. The complimentary breakfast was a true five-star experience every morning, nothing continental about it.
What stood out most was how well the resort caters to children. It was the best family resort experience we’ve had anywhere. Our kids loved the indoor slides and outdoor pool and honestly refused to leave. After we went to the JW Marriott in Venice, all they talked about was wanting to go back to Falkensteiner. Our room was amazing, though there is still some construction visible if your room faces the outside perimeter.
My only suggestion would be adding a regular shuttle or golf cart service to downtown Salò. The lake is an easy walk, but the main shops, restaurants, and ferry pickup are farther, especially with kids and summer heat. Overall, this was a true 10/10 stay. We cannot wait to return. Thank you to the entire team for your incredible hospitality.
