Villa Giustinian

Like others who have reviewed, we had stayed here before and remembered it as a special oasis to escape to after busy days in Venice. So, 20 years after our first visit, we returned with our two teens. We were informed that the same family own and manage it - although we didn't meet the owner this time. We were delighted to find the villa and grounds had all had updates and improvements but had retained their charm. We stayed in a separate building at the end of the grounds and, whilst basic, the rooms were comfortable and air con worked very well. We seemed to have the whole building to ourselves! The parking, gorgeous pool and convenient bus stop over the road to Venice are all positives. We actually quite liked the ordering of breakfast in advance as it meant that we could visit the buffet of fruit, yogurt and cereals once and then just relax at our table whilst being served hot drinks and hot food. This made it a relaxing experience compared to the manic breakfast when it is full buffet in other establishments. The young staff are absolutely delightful and charming - going out of their way to help us - a real asset. We hope to be back again in the future.
