property is beautiful with lot of facilities. The shuttle service to main venice island was very useful and good. very friendly and helpful staff. had a very pleasant and memorable trip
The front desk staff went way above and beyond to help us in all aspects, they were attentive, proper, and professional with a constant smile on there faces at all times, thank the the STAFF for the welcoming feeling.
They didnt let you know of events to go and see things. Apparently there was an art exhibition in Venice and never told even when I asked about art and glass things. Helpful when you knew exactly what you wanted.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Not great for the price, staff not very helpful aside from one nice concierge. Dull and dated rooms.
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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Good: staff work incredibly hard, pool and beach area was superb, free hotel taxi to San Marco was great
Bad: rooms are incredibly tired and dated, so it’s not representative of a 5* hotel, outstanding over pricing of drinks (25€ for an aperol spritz)
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!
Great place with sea, pool and direct transport to Venice. But the services and personel are not 5 stars.

I had booked a sea view suite as a treat. £500 per night.
We were greeted at the desk in a very off-hand manner and shown to the lift and handed our keys.
We found our room, but access to the balcony was locked. Apparently to access this, we had to go back downstairs, sign a waiver accepting carte blanche liability and go back up with a key!
The room itself was tired with carpet stains and in need of renovation. The shower (over the bath) needed de-limescaling to work properly and the plug was slow to drain.
A coffee machine was provided with 4 coffee pods for our entire stay. More were available at an extortionate price! The minibar had various bottles of water and soda which would be replenished again only at a price.
The swimming pool was good and beds comfortable but any refreshments were eye-wateringly expensive (twice any other bar). Consequently we went out for refreshments and meals. However, the hotel is not in a great location for bars or restaurants.
Luckily, we found BAGNO MARCONI a little further up the beach. Amazing.
