WELCOME TO
CASA GALLO
STRESA - LAGO MAGGIORE
Welcome to Casa Gallo
Since the 1960's, Casa Gallo has stood as a testament to the beauty of thoughtful architecture—a seamless marriage of Scandinavian timber warmth and the timeless elegance of Italian stone.
Tucked away on the hills of Stresa, our estate offers more than just a place to stay; it offers a rhythm of life that feels intentionally slowed. Whether you are gathered around the outdoor kitchen as the sun sets over Lake Maggiore, watching the children play across the private lawn, or enjoying a quiet moment on the porch of our guest house, Casa Gallo is designed to be the backdrop for your most cherished memories.
We invite you to experience the harmony of our dual-villa estate—where grand social spaces meet private, peaceful retreats.Welcome to your home on the lake.

The Lakeview Lounge
Designed for the 'Dolce Far Niente' (the sweetness of doing nothing). With oversized sofas and panoramic views, the outdoor lounge is the estate’s premier spot for golden hour cocktails and deep conversation as the lake lights begin to twinkle.
