Villa Casanova

A/c unit did not work well and our drain was very slow / nearly plugged, plus the shower head wasn’t movable past one’s shoulders so you had to stoop to take a shower. None of these issues were resolved during our stay. It was so hot, I was surprised they didn’t even have a fan to offer us when we told them that our a/c didn’t work. However - the neighborhood is residential and quiet, close to the beach, the service was otherwise excellent, and the property is quaint. A good value for Venice in high season but you sacrifice a bit of comfort.

We enjoyed staying in this restored, 1930s villa in Lido, just a short vaporetto (water bus) ride away from Venice. The neighborhood was safe, quiet, and full of excellent restaurants. Our hosts were friendly and gave us good directions for sightseeing in Venice. The breakfast was delicious, with lots of choices: yogurt, meat, cheese, croissants, rolls, cereal, and excellent coffee or cappuccino. Our only reservations: the house is a little shabby, with worn carpets, and the receptionist forgot to show us how to use the electricity card, which must be used in the room in order to have electricity. Other than that, this is a great place to stay to sightsee in Venice!

Amazing as always. Special thanks for the honeymoon room and to the brilliant hosts. It was raining outside but bright in the villa.

Villa Cassanova was the best hotel/pension we stayed in for or 6 city 2 week European trip. Service was faultless beginning with prompt and helpful answers to questions I e-mailed regarding getting to the property by ferry from the rail station to outstanding breakfasts and general friendliness of the managers. The room was elegant and the bathroom functional. The location is convenient as it is only a 10 minute walk to the ferry and a little more to a good range of restaurants. The Palace of the Doges is a short ferry ride away. If you're going to Venice do yourself a favour and stay at Villa Cassanova

Fantastic hotel, superb location, 5 mins walk from the water bus. Cannot fault anything about the hotel or staff. Would gladly recommend this hotel to anyone Thank you for everything
