The Hotel Rezia is a lovely escape from busy city life. This was our next stop after Venice which was swarming with tourists even in late September. We were perched above the small town of La Villa. Our room was comfortable and clean. I was with my mom and the lack of a bathroom or shower door made things a little awkward as you could look into the shower from the door, front hallway, and the bathroom. There was a wonderful fresh floral scent in the public areas. The spa was unattended and a lovely space for lounging, taking a sauna, or sitting in a jacuzzi outdoors with beautiful mountain views. We opted for half pension, which included breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was a huge bar with breads, fruits, yogurts, cereals, pastries, and meats and cheeses. Dinners included a visit to a fabulous salad bar with roasted vegetables, seeds, beans, fresh vegetables. After the huge salad, there’s a starter, two main courses and dessert. We learned to pace ourselves as it was a lot of food. The second and third nights we did better at not finishing our mains to save room for dessert. The quality of the salad and breakfast buffet was amazing. The prepared dishes were good but not great. The thing I appreciated was not having to pick a new restaurant for every meal. Hiking in the area is so well organized and marked. We discovered the art trail just below the hill from Regis as we were leaving town. I wish we had time to walk that one. Beautiful views, gorgeous landscapes.
