We stayed at Franca's house for more than month and that was a beautiful experience! We arrived by car in the small town of Malamocco and nice Elsa met us at the property. House is cosy, well maintained, and decorated with taste. Although it's a bit far away from Lido center, it's worth staying in enchanted little town. It's incredibly safe place with lots of fresh air coming from the sea, where you can rest after long walks and climbings in Venice. Safe for kids. We enjoyed rides with bikes that Franca gave us. That's a place to return!
