The valet parking was a bit confusing as the front doors go right out to the main road there is no "lobby parking" you just pull off to the side and wait for the valet. They were dropping off a car as we finished getting our luggage out so it was a bit confusing but, the staff were quick and efficient. All the staff were very friendly and helpful, the water shuttle to and from Venice was a great perk (this is not a luggage service you must bring your luggage by the water bus station or the vehicle ferry as vehicles are allowed on Lido). Breakfast was yummy. The room was warm which i understand it is common not to have A/C on yet this time of year, but the balcony had a key lock on it so we were only able to open it a crack to get any air in. The coffee for the coffee machines was amazing. Room other than the air was comfortable. Staff brought our car around and loaded it without us even having to ask. They also assisted us the day we arrived in getting a return ferry for when we left. There could be some updates made but it was an excellent placw to stay amd staff was amazing.

It’s one of the few properties in Venice with a pool. It really is a beautiful place on the beach. The property is rather old and the room and pool need updating but the staff are wonderful. We had an amazing holiday just very expensive.

A beautiful classic property with a huge pool, great beach with cabanas on a sandy beach and calm warm waters of the gulf of Venice. Wonderful courteous staff in all areas with a great buffet breakfast included with your stay. However I found the food service poor with high prices and sub standard service. Food choices were not great and much too pricey for the quality of food and amounts of food served. The boat service from 9am till 1130 pm with boats running every half hour to and from Venice proper was the greatest feature. You could go into Venice at any time of the day and return by 1130 pm. Shop,eat at a multiple variety of places at a multiple variety of prices at your convenience. Truly a great hotel and a great vacation!
