I had a great time staying at Filippo's apartment! when I arrived he collected me from the vaporetto stop and drove me down (as it was very hot that day!) and his lovely girlfriend made me a cooling drink and fed me some food. I stayed 4 nights in total and it was just perfect for my trip to venice. Lido is a great island, close enough to the main island of venice to not have to spend ages travelling but far enough away that you can escape the crowds. It has a lovely relaxed atmosphere and the sunsets you see across the water are amazing! Filippo's apartment is handily located just ten minutes walk or a few steps on the bus from the vaporetto stop and there are plenty of amenities close by (shops, restaurants etc)
Filippo was very friendly and easy to chat with but also laid back about having visitors in his home. A perfect combination for me. Thanks very much for a great stay!
