Relais Castello di Morcote
An impeccably restored, centuries-old, patrician home is the setting for this luxurious hideaway tucked in a village just above Morcote. Be it an oversized birdcage chandelier or duck-egg blue chaise longue, the refined natural decor practically oozes understated glamour. Authentic local cuisine is offered in the Relais at La Sorgente or in the vineyard at Vicania. Guests are encouraged to discover the 172-hectare (428-acre) vineyard next door and sample vintages from the Castello di Morcote estate, or relax in the Mediterranean garden under the wafting odors of lavender and thyme.
