I booked a 2 bed apartment a few months before arrival as I was travelling with my mother, as well as my husband. Sadly there was an issue a few days before and so we were downgraded to the one bedroom (with compensation) which wasn’t ideal. The stay was still very good (very good location, very nice host). I liked the look of the Bougainville apartments due to their over the top use of colour which I know my mom loves, so this definitely exceeded expectations. Good spacious apartment (albeit only one bedroom). Nice kitchen and dining area. Modern bathroom. Comfy beds. Netflix available on the tv, which was an unexpected treat. Off street parking. Nice gift from Alberto the host on departure.

Because of the issue with our 2 bedroom booking being unavailable, and only notified a few days before, there was some stress about trying to find an alternative 2 bed in the area with prices double what they had been when I originally booked. So we had no choice but to stay in the 1 bedroom plus sofa bed in the living/dining/kitchen area. Everything would have been perfect if we’d had the two bedroom we booked. We made it work and the apartment was still good, and we had a nice stay. Also note, internet was patchy.

Excellent apartments in a good location. Very hospitable and attentive hosts. The apartments have a lot of space. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need. Parking on site. We loved it, we recommend it and would love to come back again!

The shower equipment needs a little renovation.

We liked everything about this property. Our host Alberto was very welcoming, helpful and friendly. His Desenzano restaurant recommendations were spot-on. The apartment was spacious and well-equipped in everything we needed to stay for a few days. The location was perfect, close to the lake, the port, and the town center with easy access to many restaurants and stores. It was great to have a parking spot on property. During our stay, we visited several towns on the Garda lake. Desenzano seems to be one of the best ones to stay in.

Nothing

All.

Nothing.

Really cool apartment with lots of room. Perfect for 2 people. We had a great time here. Place was spotless too! The host was great.

WiFi can be a little slow in the bedroom but works perfectly fine anywhere else in the apartment.

Everything was great.

The place is near to the centrum, quiet and comfortable. Easy to reach with a car, at 15 minutes walk from the station. I liked that I did not have to buy stuff like sugar, salt, and soap just for 2 nights, but the host provided those in the house. It was possible to cook and order a take out easily. I also needed to iron my shirt and it was possible. The house is perfect.

everything went fine.

We liked everything. Alberto met us at the train station, loaded our suitcases into the car, gave us a guided tour of area, asked us what we might be interested in doing during our stay and pointed out most relevant areas and offered very good advice on all that we needed. Location very central to all our requirements; train station 15 min walk, buses, bars, restaurants, lakeside front just a short stroll away. Apartment was very spacious and clean and met all our needs. Few days in Alberto offered to clean apartment and change linen, very kind considering Easter holidays, we only requested more towels. We had his contact number/email and WhatsApp and were told to contact him if we required anything. He very kindly offered to drop us back at the station on our return journey. All in all we were very happy with our stay at Le Bouganville and wouldn't hesitate in recommending highly enough. Thank you Alberto for making our stay so pleasurable.

Nothing really.

Beautifully decorated, spacious and cosy. Host was welcoming and flexible about arrival and departure times.

We had a wonderful stay in this apartment! Alberto was a great host, very helpful, with amazing recommendations and very caring for his guests. The apartment was spacious and comfortable with everything we needed. It was perfectly located, so near to the lake and city center. Our dog also loved this place! When visiting Desenzano / Garda, we would definitely love to stay there again!! Grazie mille, Alberto!

Brilliant stay. Property is clean, well furnished and well decorated. Host was lovely. Picked us up from the train station, gave us a quick tour of area and advice on where to eat, Was always available by text to help and dropped us back at station at the end of the week. Property is very short walk to the front and the lake, yet very quiet and peaceful at night. Will stay here if ever get the chance to come back .
