Welcome message
Greetings everybody! Welcome to Villa Gallo! I am Gianluca, your host.
I was born and raised in Lido, I lived in China for 25 years, where I met my wife Zhimin and were our kids Leo and Filippo were born, and now we live in Rome.
In 2018 we decided to purchase a villa in Lido, to strengthen our roots in the lagoon.
We visited over a dozen of villas, and when we had almost lost hope to find the perfect one for us, we read by chance a post about Villa Gallo, we run to see it, and it was love at first sight!
Although it needed a lot of restructuring and restoration works, it was clear that we were in front of jewel of Lido liberty style, one of the few villas of such size, with a nice garden, in a good location, with elegant and antique details.
Over twenty among enterprises, artisans and professionals managed, with a great teamwork, to bring back Villa Gallo to her ancient splendor, as you can see her today.
We hope you will be able to appreciate her beauty and enjoy your stay with us!

Brief history of Villa Gallo
Lido has a very long history.
In the mid-19th century, Lido started to become one of Europe’s most elegant and exclusive seaside resort.
Many luxury hotels and villas were built at the beginning the 20th century, in a unique liberty style.
Cavalier Ettore Corinaldi entrust architect Mario Gidoni to design Villa Gallo in 1914, and the constructions we completed the following year.
Few years later the villa was purchased by lawyer Bruno Gallo.
The Gallo family owned the villa for the next century, until it we purchased it in 2018.
