VillaVerde grew out of the historic Villa Lemberg and proudly carries its story forward. Interior designer Christina von Berg and her team at Studio Biquadra have managed to translate the soul of the old building into contemporary architecture. The buildings are arranged like a gentle arena around the park, with its natural swimming pond, saltwater pool and herb garden.

As you wander through the coffee house, veranda or fireside lounge, thoughtful details appear at every turn: flea market finds from Paris and Northern Italy, handcrafted furniture, fine fabrics and natural materials. Nothing feels generic. Everything tells a story. VillaVerde is not simply a place to stay. It is a place to feel.

Apartments with heart, wood and character

Each apartment is individually designed and comes with a kitchenette, balcony or terrace, all created with a refined sense for materials and atmosphere. Instead of anonymous hotel luxury, you will find natural fabrics, Tencel duvets for a healthy sleeping climate, organic cosmetics made with South Tyrolean herbs, and carefully considered details throughout.

There is no fixed programme here, only possibilities. Whether you are enjoying breakfast in the coffee house, practising yoga behind the natural swimming pond or having a glass of wine on the terrace, VillaVerde gives you the freedom to choose. That is exactly what makes it so special.

Wellness in tune with nature

Wellness at VillaVerde means having nothing you have to do and everything you are free to enjoy. Swim in the 20-metre saltwater pool, heated all year round, take a dip in the chlorine-free natural swimming pond among water lilies, or unwind in the bio sauna, Finnish sauna or steam bath. Afterwards, walk barefoot along the wooden jetty, dip your feet into the water and watch the dragonflies. These are moments you cannot plan, only experience.

The spa philosophy is consistently sustainable, with natural cosmetics, environmentally friendly green cleaning and a gentle connection between body and nature.

A coffee house instead of a hotel restaurant

While many hotels rely on large buffets, VillaVerde focuses on life’s smaller pleasures in its own coffee house. In the morning, a carefully prepared breakfast with regional organic products awaits. In the afternoon, the scent of homemade cakes and freshly brewed coffee fills the room.

For those looking for more culinary variety, the Dine Around service offers a handpicked selection of some of the best restaurants in Merano and the surrounding area, personally recommended by the VillaVerde team.

Between city strolls and mountain views

Few places combine city life and nature as effortlessly as Lagundo near Merano. From VillaVerde, it is only a few minutes to the centre of Merano or the popular Algundo Waalweg trail. If you feel like heading higher, take the retro basket lift up to 1,500 metres.

With the digital South Tyrol Guest Pass, the whole region becomes easy to explore, including free public transport, selected cable cars and museum admissions.
