Ca’ Bianco is perfectly located for visiting Venice and also having a much more laidback time in between visits. Everything you need is a very short walk away – pet friendly beach, supermarket, beach bar and restaurant, as well as another friendly bar which serves food. You can take a bus to one end of the island to catch the waterbus to Venice and other islands, or to the other end to catch a spectacular sunset. There are also plenty of great bars and restaurants at either end of the Lido and dotted in between, so you are spoilt for choice and away from the tourist traps of Venice. The house has everything you need (although the internet signal is a bit weak in the garden , so if you want to work outside, use your phone as a hotspot) and Christina is an excellent host – v informative and friendly and happy to leave you to it – and very patient with our two small ‘guard’ dogs. We really enjoyed our time there.
