A historic mansion and four-star boutique hotel in the hills above Lake Garda, with terraces, parks and a pool among olive groves and vineyards
Villa Cariola in Caprino Veronese
Villa Cariola is a historic mansion and four-star boutique hotel set in the hills above Lake Garda, in the countryside at Località Preele near Caprino Veronese. The residence dates back centuries, and its interiors carry eighteenth-century-themed decor. Olive trees and vineyards surround the house, and the views stretch across Valpolicella to Monte Baldo and Verona. Wide parks and a pool lie around the villa, with expansive gardens beside the house, and weddings here are built around its terraces, gardens and bright historic rooms, so the day stays within the same landscape from start to finish.
A dedicated wedding coordinator walks alongside couples through every stage of the day, from the start of the ceremony to the reception, and introduces them to partners for the rest of the plan. The villa can be taken for exclusive use, which gives a wedding the whole venue. Because the villa is also a hotel with its own rooms, it works both as a place to celebrate and as a place for guests to stay, whether they travel from nearby or from every corner of the globe. Guests can spend the whole stay on one estate, among the parks, the pool and the views across the hills.
