Reka holiday village Lugano - Albonago
Newly-built holiday paradise in a top location with lake view and panoramic pool
Via Albonago 61 , 6962 Viganello, Switzerland
The facility
Your holiday paradise in the sunniest corner of Switzerland!
Clean, deep blue, crystal-clear lakes, green wooded hills and a mild climate ... in Lugano-Albonago, on the sunny slope half way up the Monte Brè, you can gaze out over the town and Lake Lugano towards the Malcantone region. Hiking, biking with the possibility of the most beautiful excursions just a stone’s throw away? Or long, peaceful days at the panoramic pool? And in the evening, a glass of Merlot with an exquisite meal under the pergola? That’s what holidays in Ticino are all about! For you, we have totally re-built this Reka classic – spacious, drenched in natural light, and with a modern design. 49 flats with balconies or terrasses and 2 hotel rooms await you.
7 residential buildings and a main building with reception, restaurant, Rekalino children’s paradise and youth area as well as a two-level covered car park: at this spacious facility you’ll find everything you need to complete your flat and contribute to successful holidays. For example, the self-service, grotto style «Osteria» restaurant for your breakfast and evening meal with indoor and outdoor seating under the pergola. Here you can choose pizza, pasta and all the wonderful Ticino cuisine’s specials. Or freshly-prepared takeaway offers, a cool drink, a gelato or a light snack from the kiosk selection. You can simply add your breakfast or half-board as extras together with your accommodation booking.
Enjoy your time in the new «Piscina Panoramica», the extensive Infinity Pool with an unlimited view over the lake. Or relax at the wellness facility in the Finnish sauna, steam bath and quiet room – the highlight you can book exclusively as your «Private Spa» for 1.5 hours (at a fee).
Discover our new «Paradiso Ticinese». Book your holiday accommodation today! We wish you a warm welcome.
Location
The village square forms the centre which serves – in a typically Mediterranean way – as a meeting place for young and old and a large playground for children. A little stream flows through the facility and invites you to linger, have a picnic or enjoy a barbecue in the open air. The Holiday Village is directly linked up with local public transport by the bus-stop right in front of the entrance.
Sustainability and Accessibility for the disabled
CO2 neutral, climate protection, care with resources, regional focus and accessibility for people with disabilities are of much concern to us. The new construction was conceived and built according the SIA Energy Efficiency Pathway and respects the highest modern ecological standards, including a strict environmental concept for waste, water, noise, air and soil. Our newest Holiday Village is set to be a place for everyone, without exception. 20 barrier-free flats and outdoor areas are ready and the whole pool area (with mobile swimming pool lift for people with disabilities) is also totally accessible.
Bathing
An outdoor pool and 2 children’s paddling pools with a slide, loungers and parasols.
Everything is here for the family!
Daily fresh bread service (for a fee), guest laundry (for a fee), playground with water slide, swings, sandpit, water games, grill area, incl. attractive Rekalino holiday programme on week days (per hour) – child care.

Monte Brè
It's worth making the trip here just for the views of the city and Lake Lugano. Funicular railways run in two sections from the edge of Lugano to Monte Brè, the scenic mountain above the lake basin and the vibrant city. Descents down to Lugano or the lake, always via the Brè village, are in part pretty steep, as are the nature and archaeological trail to Gandria.
Swiss customs museum
The Swiss Customs Museum is to be found in an old border guard post, directly on the banks of the lake only a few metres away from the Swiss-Italian border. A visit to the museum may be ideally combined with a walk through the picturesque surroundings or a meal in one of the nearby caves where you can enjoy the best Ticino fare. There are also picnic areas alongside the museum.
Lido di Lugano
Like the old bathing huts, it was originally built in homely wood: The "Lido di Lugano" bathing establishment on the shores of Lake Lugano. The large bathing complex was later supplemented by a modern outdoor pool with an Olympic pool and 10-metre diving platform. Today, the baths have two parts: a sporty, lively swimming pool and a cosy lido that is more geared towards relaxation and leisure. The beautifully renovated lido has also succeeded in largely preserving the charm of the old Lido.
Rekalino-Trail
The Rekalino Trail is an interactive puzzle fun for young and old, which can be played in 13 Reka holiday resorts in Switzerland. The adventure takes participants into the story of "Rekalino & Rekalina", complete with tricky puzzles, games, challenges and experiments. The trail can be played in German and French.

Dolce Vita im Reka-Feriendorf Lugano
Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Gastronomie am Abend mit dem Buffet hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Das Essen war sehr lecker und die Auswahl grosszügig und abwechslungsreich. Das ganze Personal war immer freundlich, hilfsbereit und gut gelaunt. Der Brötchen Service ist eine super Idee. Die vielen Treppen auf dem Areal haben mir zu schaffen gemacht. Besonders der Weg vom Parkplatz mit dem Gepäck zum Haus Magnolia war mühsam. Die Lage ist sensationell mit der Aussicht auf Stadt und Berge. Gute Busverbindungen in die Stadt. Die Poolanlage ist ideal für Kinder und Erwachsene. Die Wohnungen sind modern eingerichtet, das hat uns sehr gefallen. Die Matratzen rutschen in der Nacht immer nach aussen, so dass man fast aus dem Bett fällt. Die Küche könnte besser ausgestattet sein. Es gibt keine Krüge oder Thermoskannen für Getränke wie Tee und kein Teesieb. Dafür ist der Kühlschrank ideal gross. Die Kosmetikartikel im Badzimmer sind hochwertig. Ein Staubsauger wäre toll gewesen, da wir mit Hund für 10 Tage angereist sind. Alles in allem haben wir tolle Ferien im Tessin verbracht und können die Reka Anlage in Lugano wärmstens weiterempfehlen.

Sehr schönes Reka Dorf
Leider nur 2 Nächte, uns hat es sehr gut gefallen.
Vorzügliche Anlage vor allem für uns als oeko
Die Anlage ist einzigartig für jedermann Die Gastronomie sehr fein und abwechslungsreich Team sehr aktiv und zuvorkommend Wegen Lärm beim Essen waren die Eltern nicht fähig, vielleicht noch bessere lärmdämmung installieren... Mit den boxspring-betten können wir uns leider nicht anfreunden, da sie Rücken Schmerzen verursachen. Ist wieder so ein modepfupf der wahrscheinlich in einigen Jahren als unbrauchbar vernichtet wird... Besser naturmatratzen in solch eine nachhaltige Anlage. Die Buchung war nur gut, da am Telefon. Eure buchungsplattform ist nach wie vor unbrauchbar. Bitte einen fachmann konsultieren.

Sehr schöne Anlage. Cooler Pool
Wunderschöne und familienfreundliche Anlage
Unser Aufenthalt hat uns sehr gut gefallen, meinem Sohn insbesondere der Kinderpool. Von der Restaurantterrasse hatte er freien Blick auf den Spielplatz und konnte so die anderen Kinder beobachten, was uns entspannte Abende brachte. Einziger Punkt, den wir bemängeln würden ist der Zugang zu unserer Wohnung. Leider war diese nur über Treppen erreichbar, was mit einem schlafenden Kind im Buggy etwas mühsam war. Uns war nicht bewusst, dass wir hierfür quasi ein barrierefreies Zimmer hätten buchen müssen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Es war wie immer ein sehr schöner Urlaub im Tessin, wir kommen gerne wieder
Sehr angenehm, mit kleinen Abweichung, unten erwähnt. Reception ganz toll.
Wir haben eine gute Atmosphäre genossen. Das Ticino Ticket tat sein Übriges; gute Sache. Wo wir etwas Abstriche machten ist bei der Ausstattung der Wohnung. Max. für 6 Personen, wir waren 4. Die Küche etwas eng, das Sortiment eher bescheiden,z.b. keine Gratain Form, bei den Schüsseln ehre kleine Auswahl. Tassen nur für 6 Pers. Salatteller/Schüsseln , negativ. Gastronomie: Pizzaplausch perfekt, Tessiner Abend durchzogen, z.T. oft leere Schüsseln. Preis/Leistung ?? Ansonsten haben wir uns wohlgwfühlt.

Wir würden wiederkommen.
Die Gastronomie ist verbesserungswürdig. Am Abendessen fehlt ein Nachtisch. Beim Frühstück der koffeinfreie Kaffee. Das Abendessen sollte mehr Auswahl für eine Woche haben – also nicht zweimal Pizza.

About the location
Your holiday accommodation in Lugano-Albonago
Lugano-Albonago nestles in a bay on Lake Lugano, in the sunniest corner of Switzerland. The largest town in the Ticinese holiday region lives with a Mediterranean flair! Lugano is characterized by breath-taking views of the mountains, the pedestrianized old town and the vicinity of mountains and lakes.
Lugano-Albonago is the perfect departure point to discover the surrounding area by public transport or using the extensive network of hiking and biking trails. You can reach the town or the lido on foot in just a few minutes or by bus from the stop just in front of the facility.
A very varied cultural programme offers numerous museums and events all year round.
Longer excursions further afield from Lugano are worthwhile. For example, to the lively cities or the spectacular, craggy valleys of Northern Italy, touring through the idyllic villages and typical vineyards of the Sopra- and Sottoceneri or exploring the UNESCO World Heritage sites in Bellinzona, Meride or Mendrisio.

About the region
Hikers, cyclists, bike racing buffs, golfers, yachtswomen, gourmets, racing drivers, nature enthusiasts and culture lovers … Ticino brings a smile to everybody’s face! Favourite destinations in the Sopraceneri region are the southern foothills of the Alps, the medieval castles in Bellinzona, Locarno with the international film festival, the markets in neighbouring Italy and the romantic Maggia and Verzasca valleys. The Sottoceneri region around fashionable Lugano offers lakes and mountains, culture, first-class musical events, culinary highlights as well as great shopping opportunities. The southern part of the canton is particularly interesting for anyone looking for the perfect combination of urbanity and nature.
Ticino attracts visitors with its southern charm and sub-tropical vegetation unique to these parts. In Switzerland’s “sun lounge” you’ll enjoy the particularly mild climate from spring right through until late autumn.
