Castello del Sole Beach Resort & SPA 

Ticino sunshine: a delight for the eyes and the palate

A Michelin-starred restaurant with its own farmland. A bird sanctuary in the park. And a resort that consciously avoids plastic.

FROM FIELD TO PLATE – REGIONAL EXCELLENCE
What ends up on the plate grows next door: the in-house farm Terreni alla Maggia supplies vegetables, grains, wine and more – all according to the «Farm to Table» principle. Cooking follows the «Nose to Tail» approach – with respect for the product, the animal and the cycle.

CIRCULARITY OVER CONSUMPTION
Plastic is avoided wherever possible. Materials are recyclable or biodegradable. Used soaps are donated to SapoCycle, which transforms them into hygiene products for those in need – a quiet but powerful gesture of care.

A REFUGE FOR RARE SPECIES
Part of the estate is a protected bird reserve managed by the Bolle di Magadino foundation. Off-limits to guests, it nonetheless fills the air with the subtle presence of rare birdsong. Here, luxury means respect.

LONG-TERM VISION – ALSO FOR THE TEAM
Over one-third of the staff comes from the region. Focused training and development offer long-term perspectives. ISO 14001 certification underscores the resort’s commitment to excellence with purpose – for guests, nature, and the people who bring it to life.
