The Italian Village is an international couture community of 1,136 acres (4,598,186 sq.m.) sited in Doddaballapur Taluk, just north of Bangalore. Designed and master-planned by MANICA Architecture, it is composed as an authentic Italian hill-town landscape — a chain of piazzas, piazzettas, villas, vineyards and formal gardens woven together by a single design language. La dolce vita. Veramente.
The programme brings every amenity of Italian life onto one estate. A Jack Nicklaus Signature PGA Tour golf course and estate villas anchor 342 acres of fairways and greens. A world-class Polo Club and Stables sits alongside 287 acres of Country Homes — rustic stone retreats set among cypress and orchard. An International Academy in manicured Borghese-style gardens serves resident families.
At the cultural heart, Piazza Centrale e Negozi hosts exclusive retail, dining and offices, ringed by neighbourhood Piazzettas of cafés and shops. Il Castello — a 7-star ultra-luxury hotel with fine dining and full-service apartments — crowns the vineyards, above 91 acres of on-site certified Italian wine production. Lemon groves feed a working grappa and limoncello distillery, and residences step from Estate Villas and Country Homes to the Capri Condos, Apartamenti Romani and Casa Florentine mid-rise collections.
