"The area where the hotel is situated is quiet, and charming. The hotel was clean, the rooms were large clean and quiet. The free shuttle from the airport and back was a surprise. And the staff was awesome, on checking in I had a small medical problem and they jumped right in to help. This property is highly recommended!!!"

"Great facilities and an ideal base for visiting Venice A fantastic resort with a real Center Parcs feel, offering loads of amenities and plenty to keep everyone entertained. The accommodation was a good size, providing plenty of space for a comfortable stay. The coach service into Venice was a real bonus, making it easy and convenient to explore the city without the hassle of driving and parking. Another big plus was that the resort was dog-friendly, which made travelling with our four legged companions much easier. A great option for combining a relaxing resort stay with a visit to the wonderful city of Venice."
