Mariuccia Gandola, the daughter of the founders of Grand Hotel Tremezzo, loved to play tennis as a child.

The De Santis family purchased this iconic Art Nouveau palace in 1975, and when they opened sister property Passalacqua in 2022, they continued this tennis tradition with the inclusion of a so-called “infinity court,” which quickly became one of the most photographed courts on Lake Como.
