Escape to this hillside beauty with modern comfort, offering lake and mountain views, and open-air dining.

The newly built Honeymoon Love Retreat 1 in Brione Sopra Minusio is a serene hideaway beside a gentle mountain stream, created for couples longing for peace, romance, and unforgettable moments. Set on a quiet hillside surrounded by lush greenery, this charming second-floor apartment overlooks the shimmering expanse of Lake Maggiore—stretching from Bellinzona across Ascona all the way to Italy—and the majestic mountains that frame it. From the first step inside, you are welcomed by a bright, inviting living space that merges seamlessly with a modern open-plan kitchen. Fully equipped with an induction hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge with freezer, coffee machine, electric kettle, and all essentials, it is a warm and functional setting for preparing meals to be shared at the sunlit dining table while gazing out at breathtaking scenery.

The apartment’s extremely comfortable double bedroom radiates warmth and character, thanks to real wooden parquet, rustic brick accents, and beautifully crafted wooden walls and furniture. Every detail invites you to slow down and sink into comfort. Step outside onto the lovingly maintained terrace, where a dining table and chairs await for tranquil breakfasts, dreamy sunset dinners, and quiet hours spent listening to the soothing rustle of the nearby stream. Surrounded by vibrant seasonal plants and accompanied by cheerful birdsong, the terrace becomes a peaceful world of its own—perfect for savoring the gentle rhythms of nature and the romance of the moment.

This retreat is a small paradise designed not only for couples seeking calm but also for guests who appreciate beauty and love to explore. The entire region surrounding Brione Sopra Minusio is a haven for sport and adventure enthusiasts, offering endless opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, water sports, canyoning, paragliding, skydiving, bungee jumping, motorcycling, and golfing, with three excellent golf courses close by. Nature lovers will find forest trails beginning just steps away, and a natural waterfall with a crystal-clear swimming pond lies only 200 meters from the apartment. The bright lake views extend into every room, ensuring that the landscape becomes a continuous part of your stay.

For those who cherish tranquility as much as inspiration, the retreat offers a unique opportunity: upon request, guests may join Beate for a guided tour of her certified “Garden of the Future.” This enchanting experience invites you to discover the world of wild plants, immerse yourself in the symphony of the brook, and witness the blooming and fading of flora as the seasons shift. Here, plants are understood as living beings—providers of habitat, nesting places, and nourishment for countless native insects, birds, and animals. The garden is a thoughtful reminder that nature is both fragile and resilient, teaching us the beauty of coexistence and the necessity of adaptation.

Thoughtful amenities ensure complete comfort, including mosquito protection on all windows, security bars on all windows and doors, a darkenable bedroom, cool interior temperatures even in summer, and a Nikken magnetic mattress pad that promotes wonderfully deep sleep. A covered parking space with a Huawei e-car charger adds convenience, while typical local Grotti, the thermal baths of Locarno, and nearby bus stops (200 m and 1.5 km away, served by lines 312 and 4) make exploring effortless. The retreat is just 12 minutes from Muralto train station and a short 10-minute drive from Locarno’s famous Piazza Grande—close enough for easy access, yet far enough to maintain complete serenity.

With its breathtaking lake views, soothing natural surroundings, and thoughtful details at every turn, Honeymoon Love Retreat 1 is the perfect place to leave everyday life behind. Treat yourself to a break, let nature surprise you, and discover a little paradise where love, peace, and beauty come together in perfect harmony.
