Definitely a highlight of our trip to Italy!
The arrangement of the private transfers from the train to the place (which I highly recommend) just starts the experience off right. Seeing Venice with the ease and beauty of the boat to the arrival the of the place - which is absolutely perfect!
We also asked for a private boat tour of Venice for 2 hours (Maria and Dimitri arranged everything) It couldn't have been more perfect for us to see the sights - picking us up at the place and dropping us off at our dinner reservation.
We were steps away from everything we wanted to see from a tourist standpoint as well as close to a small piazza to grab a quick coffee and food.
The place was exactly as represented in the pictures and did not disappoint. We had a great night's sleep and loved to open the door to the canal to watch gondolas and other boats passing by...we even saw a couple get engaged.
Such a perfect place - it would be hard for me to stay anywhere else when coming to Venice. <3
