Rambaldi Apartments Casa nr 5

Great location and gardens / pool. Newly renovated to high spec rooms.

Would have liked direct outside space, but this is not available to all apartments (we did know this when we booked though).

we were self catering

The pool area and the well kept gardens are secluded and superb. The 2 bedroom apartment is spacious and the beds are comfortable. We could not hear much noise from outside even though its a 3 min walk to the center of town and the harbour. The kitchen was well equipped and the shower was excellent. Parking is secure and access is easy through the restricted vehicle road. We never had a problem getting 3 sunbeds by the pool, they are ample. Its over 14's ('adult') accommodation, so its relatively tranquil around the pool (On our final day a group of 4 were drinking wine and playing loud music in the pool - they were swiftly and politely asked not to by the staff), so don't expect any pool parties!

We knew there was no balcony in the apartment, we had but after the pool closes at 7pm, there are no guest spaces outside of the apartment to relax. Perhaps a part of the garden could be accessible at that time. No chopping board! ...just nit picking really.

This apartment is situated on the edge of the busy little centre of Bardolino, a short stroll to the harbour and Lake Garda promenade, the restaurants and shops. The pool and garden were particularly lovely as we stayed during some hot weather. The apartment was basic, clean and tidy.

We were two couples and found the apartment a little small, especially the twin bed room, so this apartment may be a better choice for a family. But no real complaints.
