Elisa and family were great hosts - they were waiting for us as we arrived and welcomed us warmly. Highly recommended hosts!

The house is in a great location if you want to have a place of solace away from the city center. It is on the neighboring island of Lido, a short 10-15 minute vaporetto ride from the center of Venice. Once on Lido, you have to take the bus for about 15 minutes and the house is right off the bus stop. Getting away from the 'touristy' parts of Venice was very nice and one of favorite parts about the house.

Lido is a beach town much slower paced and populated than Venice. We spent a day renting bikes, exploring the island, and hanging out at the beach - one of our favorite days of the trip - highly recommended if you have time!

The house is spacious and more than enough for two people with all the amenities you need - only lacking wifi which made it a little hard for us.

Overall a great experience and highly recommended if you'd like to stay just outside of Venice!
