Floating in the heart of Lake Bolsena, Bisentina Island is one of Italy's most exclusive and mystical destinations.

Long held in private hands and only recently reopened to the public, this island is a sanctuary where wild nature meets Renaissance architecture.

As you sail from the docks of Bolsena or Capodimonte, you’ll approach a place that feels suspended in time, featuring lush Mediterranean vegetation, ancient oaks, and seven monumental chapels built between the 15th and 16th seculies.
