Why you’ll love it...
Once upon a time, Palazzo Di Varignana began as a farm cultivating vines and olive trees. Today, it has evolved into a beautiful estate that continues to produce exquisite wine and olive oil. The historic villa, dating back to 1705, stands as the iconic centerpiece of the estate. The hotel is a collection of various buildings, including the main structure housing restaurants, reception, and the spa, as well as additional buildings for rooms and villas, a wine and olive tasting area, a golf practice range, tennis courts, and conference space. Keep an eye out for the meticulously restored carriage from the original Royal Train. Palazzo di Varignana exudes elegance and Italian style, featuring timeless design and beautiful art. Stroll through the estate amidst the vines and olive trees, surrounded by peaceful green hills and breathtaking views. This part of Italy still offers serenity and tranquility. The spa serves as a haven for relaxation and introspection, with about seven outdoor swimming pools and one indoor pool. Whether you're seeking a well-deserved short stay (perhaps a city trip to Bologna) or a more intensive health journey with one of the health programs led by Dr. Annamarie Acquaviva, Palazzo Di Varignana is dedicated to helping guests become the best version of themselves. Dr. Acquaviva employs a holistic approach based on the five pillars of life for a comprehensive and rejuvenating experience.

Zeer mooi resort met prachtige zwembaden. Kamers zijn ruim en van alle gemakken voorzien. Eten bij de verschillende restaurants is ook zeer goed, wel redelijk aan de prijs voor italie. 45 min rijden naar centrum Bologna.
