My wife, two young children and I spent a magical month in Venice at the Lavender Beach House. Easy walking distance to the ocean, the canals, the shops and restaurants. The home is wonderfully functional and comfortable. Just the right amount of space for a family of four and all the conveniences we needed (with an emphasis on cooking supplies as we made 1-2 meals per day at the house). Lovely courtyard in the back for quiet reading or working. We will definitely be coming back!
