Byblos Art Hotel Villa Amista is located just 7 km from Verona, and it takes about twenty minutes by car to drive from the hotel to the shores of the magnificent Lake Garda. In other words, Villa Amista is located in the heart of the famous Valpocinella wine region, where we found the rarest wine spots in the world (I strongly encourage everyone to mark these blessed places in the post-quarantine calendar).
Now about Villa Amista: from the outside it is a charming 15th-century palazzo, standing on a low hill, to which a long alley leads. In front of the entrance is a fountain, surrounded by a flower bed with white and purple begonias in curly vigorous greenery. The marble pedestal of the fountain is surrounded by a round dance of bronze heads of fat-cheeked cupids - with their mouths open, they somehow look at the audience with suitcases in surprise like a fish. Starting at the gate, the baroque idyll only gains strength with every step.
Here is a group of shady trees next to lacy cast-iron outdoor furniture - servants brought out a decanter of Chianti, arranged ashtrays and laid out in plain sight snacks from the hotel's Atelier restaurant - ham for ham, melon for melon, cheese for cheese. Here is a high stone fence with an arch through which guests are supposed to go sunbathing and having fun on a specially designated lawn (however, there is also a large pool area for sunbathing and swimming - sun loungers are installed on a mowed lawn).
But, as sometimes happens, the first impression is very deceptive! When you go up the wide grand staircase, past the porch with the painted plafonds on the ceiling, and enter the majestic hall, it will suddenly seem to you that you, apparently, have missed the door a little.
From the walls, on which - if you trustfully succumb to the first, external impression - there should be innocent tapestries and marble bas-reliefs, completely naked girls look at the viewer (artistic photographs of a gigantic size). The girls are stylized as cupids in red wigs, but these are female cupids - we can see their shaved pubes, their tiny breasts, large with blue navels, as well as spread legs, demonstrating from other angles the very thing that the Marquis de Sade without hesitation called " jade gates.
It turns out that inside Villa Amista is a true art debauchery, and not a medieval palazzo at all! We also note that the quality of photographs, their printing and color separation of shameless cupid girls - all this is done at a decent level.
Some check-in guests are so numb at the sight and abundance of nudity that hotel staff have to shake them a little and call their names to hand over the keys to the room. So, Villa Amista is not an old-fashioned Venetian establishment, but the only art hotel of the Byblos fashion brand, created according to all the rules of a modern art gallery.
Here, the entire violent erotic avant-garde is adjacent to the remains of the former palazzo - huge windows, stucco ceilings, large mirrors. In general, the creators of Villa Amista have put a real artistic bomb in this good old villa. For example, the chandelier in the hall is a typical large crystal chandelier. However, transparent crystal pendants in this case burn with a brothel color - here sinful red shimmers with sinful sugary pink (and plus these naked girls! ). In the center of the hall there is an unusual seat for rest.
Everyone can sit down and relax on a large stone, lined with colored mosaics and reminiscent of the best creations of Antonio Gaudi, exhibited in Barcelona's Park Gü ell.
And here's the summary: traveling in Italy in the summer - many, fortunately, have already developed such a habit - you should definitely stay at this Villa Amista for a couple of days. At least look at the cupids-girls, because they deserve it.
