Sound of Colors - Art Design Apartment

We loved to stay here! It is a must see accommodation for design fanatics. Marta, the owner is so cool 😊 We were 4 friends there. It was more than comfortable for our stay

What a stunning apartment and such a riot of colour and still not garish or gaudy...so aptly named - Sound of Colors..The hosts Marty and Marvin are wonderful people, always ready to help. Marty met us on arrival and she took so much pain to explain everything . You can see her passion for her home and her guests' comfort. They live upstairs so everything has her personal touch . She was an interior designer and it shows in all the little artefacts and little cacti and plants placed all over the house - even the ensuite bathroom is a work of art. The cherry on the cake was the Gramophone record player with a wonderful collection of vinyl records with a good collection of old songs. The beds are super comfy, the apartment squeaky clean, excellent security and parking in front of their garage, kitchen is well equiped, Oh and I forgot to mention the terrace sitout - perfect for a coffee in the morning or a drink in the evening. Marty had left a small tin of olive oil for us. The best part is the location - within 5-10 minutes walk away from the supermarkets, the lungomare, the restaurants , bars and the port where you can catch ferries to the other pretty towns on Lake Garda. We are definately coming back to this place

The fact that we stayed only 4 days

This apartment was amazing, first impressions from outside the building weren’t good but what a surprise we had , fully equipped with everything you could need for a restful break

Marvin’s pleace is really unique: From the futuristic building to interior design inside the house and terace. We were pleasantly surprised about the size of the whole place. Marvin and Marta were also great hosts and made sure we have everything we need for our stay in Desenzano (small gifts and a list with all the nice places to go out for coffee, drinks or eat). Location is perfect: just half way between the railway station and old town. Beds are comfortable and quiet, bathrooms were super clean (and with an interesting design one of them).

seemed like cats used to be present at one point in the apt (there were some scratches on the sofa), but we didn’t mind that at all.

It was a privilege to stay in this extremely cool and comfortable apartment. The building is a masterpiece of brutalist architecture, and inside the owners have kept many of the beautiful original features - something that is very rare to see in today's culture of mindless renovation! The apartment is spectacular and unique. I took many photos of its fascinating design features and beautiful spaces. The space is excellent, with a generous living area, a brilliant kitchen with terrace and opaque glass wall, and very ample and comfortable bedrooms. The bathrooms are large and benefit from a shower and bath. The main terrace leading off the living space has lake views (just) and plenty of space for eating and relaxing. The location is also great - it's just minutes walk from the attractive centre of Desenzano, where I had some great meals, gelati, and visited the interesting local market. I had an excellent experience staying in this a singular space, and the hosts were fantastic - friendly, knowledgeable and very accommodating. I would highly recommend this apartment as a stylish and supremely comfortable base for visiting Lake Garda. Thank you, Marta and Marvin! <3

Nothing - I wish I had more time to stay.
