A beautiful 700-year-old villa with a unique atmosphere. I spent three unforgettable days at Relais Villa Ormaneto, and every moment deserves the highest praise. From the very first step, I was captivated by the atmosphere—charming grounds, quiet lanes, and lush greenery—perfect for a romantic getaway. Room: Comfortable bed, private bathroom with full amenities, smart TV, air-conditioning, and flawless Wi-Fi—everything worked perfectly. Pool & parking: A lovely pool nestled in a tranquil garden and secure, discreet parking made the stay completely stress-free. Verona is only about a 40-minute drive away—an excellent base for exploring the sights. The on-site VI•OR restaurant is a true gem—a feast for the senses. Its stylish yet relaxed ambience under mature trees blends beautifully with local cuisine. The highlight for me was the snails—prepared with respect for tradition yet with a modern twist. The wine list is excellent, featuring regional bottles that elevate every dish. Snails—an absolute must-try. Wine—expertly curated and perfectly matched to the menu. Service—warm, professional, and capable of creating a truly special atmosphere. It’s an ideal spot for a romantic escape—time seems to slow down here, and every detail invites you to relax and savour the moment. You need to come here with your own car. It’s quite a distance from Verona and other interesting towns. But sometimes it’s worth driving 30–40 minutes to find yourself in a truly special place.
