“Ultimate paradise”
We had the most spectacular stay at Aria as part of our honeymoon - it was utter paradise. From the moment we arrived we were greeted by the most friendly, kind staff. They took time to get to know us and made our stay extra special. Matteo, Christian, Giuseppe, Alice, all the spa staff were just fantastic. Our room was equipped with beautiful amenities and was exceptionally clean, modern and spacious. The beds and pillows were super comfortable. Breakfast is served in the room and the selection was fantastic - special shout out the chefs for accommodating my vegan dietary needs. They went out of their way to make off-the-menu items. The spa was brilliant, with beautiful views of the lake and mountains from the sauna. The treatments were also top quality. The indoor and outdoor heated pools were great too. We ate at La Musa one evening and enjoyed every course. The setting is quiet and intimate. I would highly recommend booking one meal there during your stay. We will no doubt be returning! Thank you to everyone at the hotel for making our stay so special!

“Absolutely superb 👏👏👏👏”
Wow, wow, wow! My wife and I have stayed in some of the most luxurious hotels around the world and the Aria is up there with them. This hotel is a hidden gem for visiting the lake Como area. It is located on lake Laguna - NOT Como. This was perfect though, it was so peaceful and away from the crowds you get around Lake Como and you’re only 15/20 minute drive from it all. The hotel, Spa, rooms and its staff are outstanding and the views are to die for. My wife and I are party people, I’m a DJ but this place was just sooo relaxing, it was just what we needed for a relaxing break. I have to mention the room, Junior sweet with lake view, it is huge with an amazing terrace and very luxurious - 100% we’ll be coming back! Well done Aria xxx

The view was breathtaking, the penthouse that we stayed in was enormous, it had a big terrace with front lake view , we had breakfast in our apartment, that had a dining room, every morning someone brought and arranged everything in the room. It exceeded our expectations!! I highly recommend this hotel. It is 10/10!

“Our Unforgettable Stay at Aria Retreat & Spa”
Aria Retreat & Spa – A Tranquil Lakeside Sanctuary Our recent stay at Aria Retreat & Spa was nothing short of extraordinary. Located in a serene spot overlooking the lake, the property offers a breathtaking panorama of crystal-blue waters and surrounding mountains—the kind of view that instantly washes away any lingering stress. The suites themselves are spacious, beautifully designed, and oriented to make the most of that stunning lakeside scenery. A standout feature was the breakfast service, available until 11:00 AM. The staff would bring a fresh, delicious meal straight to our suite, then discreetly return later to clear away the table—allowing us to savor our morning in total comfort. This level of personalized service truly underscored how dedicated the team is to making every guest feel pampered. The spa facilities were equally impressive. Between the calming atmosphere, modern amenities, and a variety of rejuvenating treatments, it was easy to spend hours unwinding and recharging. Whether you’re taking a quick dip in the pool or enjoying a moment in the sauna, you’re never far from those spectacular lake views. Overall, Aria Retreat & Spa is an idyllic escape for anyone looking to relax far from the bright lights and bustle of city life. If you value tranquility, impeccable service, and the luxury of waking up each day to postcard-worthy scenery, this retreat will not disappoint. We can’t wait to return!
