In the small village of Pettenasco -  on the eastern shore of Italy's Lago d'Orta - is located in a picturesque private bay Laqua by the Lake. With a 180-degree view of the silvery lake, this is a unique place where you can completely relax and enjoy the impeccable service and gastronomic offer that this resort offers. Laqua by the Lake is owned by celebrity chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo who oversees the cool restaurant that serves daily breakfast (included in the price), lunch or dinner.

The modern and elegant suites are furnished with designer furniture, a soft palette of colors, and luxurious natural materials - travertine floors, marble, stone, and locally sourced wood - that blend beautifully with the environment.  The suites vary in size, but all have an attractive living room with a beautiful designer kitchen, one or two bedrooms, and luxurious bathrooms with a walk-in shower, bathrobes, and Etro care products. Some suites have a private balcony overlooking the lake, while others have direct access to the garden, the perfect choice for families. Even more special are the exclusive penthouses, with a large private terrace with a jacuzzi from which you are treated to breathtaking panoramas.

On the edge of the lake is a stunning heated infinity swimming pool, equipped with a sun terrace with luxury sunbeds and a small private beach where you can feel the sand between your feet. In addition, there is a beach club with many activities for active guests, such as water skiing, wakeboarding, or paddle boarding on the lake, while for the little ones, there are activities in the pool. For a relaxing afternoon, book a massage or spa treatment in the wellness area.

But there is more to do. You can rent the e-boat for a family outing on the lake, borrow e-bikes to tour the surrounding hills, stroll through charming Orta San Giulio or take a city trip to Milan or Como. In winter, you can also ski down the slopes of the nearby Monte Mottarone.
