“Villa Carona strikes me as a rare find: a historic hotel that doesn't sacrifice modern comfort. The gardens appear to be a focal point, promising relaxation alongside award-winning cuisine. I particularly appreciate its location in a centuries-old village, offering both tranquility and convenient access to Lugano.”
