My family of 4 loved this place! There is a nice green space right nearby, which we found to be a bonus, especially as a reprieve from the touristic chaos and the heat of summer, and would be a great space for small kids. You have a 25 minute walk or a quick water taxi ride into the center of Venice. Highly recommend that you buy the water taxi pass, because then it is an easy trip to wherever you want to go from this place. There are not a lot of restaurants or stores right nearby, but we didn't mind hopping on the water taxi to get back and forth. Very clean and quiet. Highly recommend!
