Fillipo is a wonderful and kind host. His apartment is an easy walk from the boat station and the centre of town with its many cafes and restaurants. Fillipo's place is very modern and very tidy. The room is large and the bed is superb. Lido is a beautiful island with the lagoon on one side and the beach on the other and its not crowded. It was well worth the short boat ride for the peace and tranquility after the noise and crowds of Venice. I highly recommend staying with Fillipo.
