Built on a lush green slope, with views directly over the Italian side of Lake Lugano, Aria Retreat & Spa is a brand new five-star upscale hotel set within a 40,000-square-meter park, and home to five restaurants and three swimming pools, tennis courts, a fitness center, a private beach and a wellness center. 

The rooms and extensive facilities of the resort are housed in an architectural complex that blends perfectly with the landscape. Inaugurated in the summer of 2021, the structure was designed by R4M Engineering around the concepts of “freedom, light and air” -- the motto of the resort. This philosophical approach permeates not only the range of services offered by the hotel, part of the Leading Hotels of The World group, but the building itself, designed by the Milan studio to limit environmental impact and obtain green certifications through the use of technologies, equipment and materials of the highest standards.
