— A quiet note

The lake, open like a letter,
the islands quiet at dusk,
and before you — time

Al Paradiso · Ronco sopra Ascona
The view

The lake lies before you, open like a promise.

Panorama
80 metres above the water
Evening view of Ascona and Lago Maggiore with the Ticino mountains
Evening · View towards Ascona

From the three small terraces the view opens from Ascona across to the islands and to the hills of the southern shore.

Al Paradiso sits eighty metres above Lago Maggiore — high enough to see the lake in its full breadth, and close enough to reach the bathing bay in five minutes.

In the morning the water rests in soft light. At midday the sun settles over the Isole di Brissago. In the evening the lake turns golden — and the mountains cast long shadows across to Ascona.

The house

Two rooms, four times of day.

Al Paradiso is not a grand villa, nor does it want to be. Clean spaces, warm materials, the lake always in view — compact, quiet, light. For two people who want to give each other time.

Bright living area with fireplace and large windows facing the lake
i. Living

A living space turned towards the light.

Large windows, soft tones and a fireplace that, on cool evenings, tells its own story. The living and dining area is the heart of the home — open and full of character. When children or guests come along, the sofa unfolds in a few easy moves into a comfortable double bed.

Modern kitchen — fully equipped.

For the morning espresso as much as for the long dinner on the terrace. Clean lines, modern appliances — everything you need and nothing you don't.

Bedroom overlooking Lago Maggiore
iii. Bedroom & bathrooms

One bedroom with lake view. Two bathrooms.

In the morning the shutters open and the first light falls into the room across the lake. Two showers / WCs mean nothing has to wait — not even with children or guests.

  • 1 double bedroom
  • 2 showers / WC
  • Air conditioning
Upper terrace with sweeping view of Lago Maggiore
iv. Outside

Three terraces — three moods.

The small east terrace catches the morning light. The middle terrace is made for breakfast and the newspaper. The upper terrace belongs to the evening — when the lake turns golden.

Ronco sopra Ascona
46.155° N · 8.748° E

A piece of the south, just as you would wish.

Al Paradiso sits in Porto Ronco, one of the most romantic spots on Lago Maggiore — a few bends above the lakeside promenade, nestled into the old terraces of Ronco sopra Ascona.

Within minutes you are at the bathing bay or walking down to Brissago, where the boats leave for the legendary Isole di Brissago. Ascona — with its long piazza, its cafés and galleries — is under ten minutes by car, Locarno a quarter of an hour.

For those drawn to nature, it begins around the next bend: the wild Valle Verzasca with its turquoise river, the broad Vallemaggia with its granite villages, hiking trails over Monte Verità, and quiet coves for an afternoon swim. For rainy days, the leisure pools in Locarno and the Splash e Spa Rivera offer bathing fun and wellness.

The view is beyond words. Every evening we sat in silence on the terrace and looked at the lake — for two weeks.

Lovingly furnished, absolutely peaceful, everything you need. We'll be back — and stay longer next time.
— Family B. · Basel
The private lift, the covered parking, the three terraces — so well thought out and at the same time so easy. A real refuge.
— S. & R. · Bern
Our dog felt just as at home as we did. The Maggia is ten minutes away, the bathing bay five. Perfect.
