The Resort Collina d’Oro covers an area of 250’000 sqm and is located in Agra, on a hilltop, at an altitude of 500m to the south of Lugano, Switzerland.

An enchanting landscape surrounded by lush nature and bathed in sunlight most of the year, with breath-taking panoramic views over the Alps and the lake. This magical location, where the colours and sinuous forms of the mountains merge into the pure waters of the lake, inspired many famous artists and writers such as the Nobel Prize winner Hermann Hesse, who lived in this area for a long time.

The Italian architect Ettore Mocchetti, editor of the prestigious magazine AD Architectural Digest, was responsible for the interior design of the building, officially inaugurated in March 2013.

Here guests can choose among 16 double rooms and 30 suites, all elegantly and stylishly furnished: the brown oak floor and the creamy Mazzaro limestone in the bathrooms convey a warm and sophisticated atmosphere, enriched by an enchanting panoramic view over the surrounding nature.

The Resort also includes a Residence with apartments, real architectural jewels which can be either bought or rented for short as well as long-term periods: the ideal solution for all those who need privacy without renouncing to the comfort of hotel services. Big windows, loggias, private gardens and all the magnificent elements of the building, are harmonically combined with modern architectural styles and innovative technologies.

Immersed in nature and tranquillity, the SPA & Fitness Centre of the Resort Collina d’Oro is the ideal place to unwind from the stress of daily life and indulge in pure relaxation. The centre includes outdoor and indoor pools, Turkish bath, sauna, multi-sensory shower, Kneipp Path and a modern gym equipped with the latest generation training facilities. In the 1’000-square-meter-big SPA there are also numerous treatment rooms to make guests enjoy moments of pure relaxation and wellbeing thanks to different kinds of massages, beauty treatments, hydrotherapy, mud applications and many other therapies.

In an elegant and welcoming atmosphere, the Hotel Restaurant offers refined Mediterranean dishes, enriched by the seasonal vegetables from the organic garden located in the park of the Resort and by an exclusive wine list, which also includes the red wine “Collina d’Oro” produced using the grapes of the Resort’s vineyard.

The Honesty Bar is the ideal location for an afternoon cappuccino or a tasty drink and, during the warm season, it is even possible to enjoy delicious snacks and drinks at the Pool House Restaurant near the swimming pool, to indulge in pure relaxation lulled by the gentle sounds of nature.
