Staying on Lido is great as you're able to get away from the crowds and have some peace. There is a bakery for morning coffee and pastry opposite the flat, and a 15 min flat walk to the ferry. There is a good restaurant, Valentinos, just down the road - and we also liked the Buddha Indian on the main street. The bar next to the ferry terminal was great for a beer in the sun. The ferry to San Marco only takes about 15-20 mins, so a great location. The flat is vintage in terms of amenities, but we weren't there much anyway. Mike was very kind and met us at the ferry terminal and gave us a lift to the flat. Very helpful hosts.
