10/10 Excellent
"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."
