Alessandro and his staff were amazing. Great directions from the beginning. Our flight arrived late at night to Marco Polo airport and he was great with the instructions on how to reach the Villa and access information. I would definitely recommend this place.

This was a beautiful property and the staff was amazing. Renovated to 1930’s decor with modern amenities. Lido is a super quiet break from Venice and has a great beach. Breakfast was excellent!

Beautiful hotel. The staff was so welcoming and helpful. Gave us bikes and beach towels for our day on the beach. Very quiet and quaint, just what you need after a busy day in Venice.

It was great, the only thing is it’s in another island, it can be hard if you don’t have unlimited ticket. I’d recommend it to everyone.

Cute place to stay! 5 mins walk from the Lido waterbus stop. The staff was very extremely helpful! I had emailed them beforehand asking for directions on how to get to the villa. They provided me with detailed instructions including which train station to come to and which waterbus to take from there. There was a transportation strike on the day we were coming in and went above and beyond to help me figure out to get to Lido since the direct waterbus was not running due to the strike!

Thank you for your positive feedback, but it sounds strange to me that no directions were provided to reach us. We always ask for the approximate time of arrival and ask if our guests arrive by plane, train or car to give them the best directions. Probably we din't get a reply about how you were going to reach us, so we couldn't give you instructions about the right boat to take. In any case we hope to see you again to make your stay even better!

Quaint, quiet, a bit run down
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.

Comfortable room in quiet Lido close to Venice
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!

A great place to stay in Venice
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

Villa Casanova is a beautiful building and Francesca and her husband are both lovely people who are more than willing to assist you in any way to make your stay in Venice as stress free as possible. My only moan is that there is no tea coffee making facility in the room - other than that I'd have no qualms about staying there again

Quiet Hotel with amazing staff
This is a lovely quiet, clean and well located hotel just 6-8 minutes walk from the water buses at the quayside on the Lido. The choices at the buffet breakfast were vast and covered all tastes. Our room overlooked the front garden and was quiet and comfortable with wifi access. All staff were so friendly and helpful especially Daniela who did her absolute best to help and provide information and went out of her way to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We would highly recommend staying here and hope to return again!

Nice Villa, warm welcome and great location
The Villa was near the vaporetto stop in the Lido. Very good location. We had a warm welcome by the host and he is a very good barista in the morning. The room was clean and the breakfast excellent. We received good advice from Alexandro to visit Venise. We were happy to comeback in the Lido in the evening to enjoy quiet .....

Warm welcome, kind staff, beautiful villa
This beautiful villa is a short walk from the water bus station. Stayed 5 nights with our little boy who now wants to live there. Walking into the square every night for an evening meal was bliss-family friendly, good places to eat, the sound of jazz being played, all fabulous. A short walk to the beach and a short water bus ride to St. Mark's Square, with the most gorgeous views. Hotel staff were so friendly and full of great advice and the breakfasts were delicious, eaten in the garden. A really relaxed stay. Would love to go back.

Felt at home!
Amazing staff! They make you feel at home and were very patient with a problem of payment on our side. Always kept a smile on and were very accommodating. They offered us breakfast upon arrival the 1st day and let us in our room early. The location is great to visit all the Venice islands. Definitely recommend Villa Casanova :)

Great Staff
Location was very good. Walking distance to Lido's main street and ferry terminal. Room was large enough for 4 people and luggage. Bathroom was modern and clean. Breakfast was extensive Continental and very enjoyable. Staff are fantastic, special mention to Marina who was so helpful and very knowledgable.Beds were a little hard and extra pillows would have been good.No big deal, so tired we fell asleep quickly. Quiet street. Lovely setting.

Memorable stay in Venice
My wife and I were visiting Venice at the end of a cruise and were looking for a quiet affordable room for one night. Villa Casanova was the perfect spot for us as it was easy to get to (via water bus which was like having a tour in itself), was in a great area not far from Venice, and had a terrific host and hostess who saw to our every need. The complimentary breakfast was terrific which included homemade pastry and specialty coffees.

Loved visiting the Lido & Lovely Villa Casanova...
This was a short trip to Venice but a wonderful new discovery in both the Lido & this great, small hotel ~Villa Casanova. You know that Venice itself is likely to be very busy~so staying on the island opposite seemed to make sense. What you don't expect is the lovely feeling of ordinary Italian life going on, the greenery, the wide canals & the bikes passing by slowly. I haven't even mentioned the stunning views, the lovely light & the sandy beaches on the seaward side of the island. The Lido is a world away from the crowds & a perfect contrast to the sightseeing trips.. We found this small hotel really charming, the breakfast was lovely - very fresh with great coffee - as you would expect in Italy! The staff were extremely helpful and it was easy to use the internet in the building and also in the pleasant garden outside. We had a lovely room at the front which was large & very comfortable. The boats to Venice run every 10 mins or so & they continue through the night although not quite so frequent. I would have no hesitation going back to the Lido and this hotel. 'Treat it like your home' had been one comment when I asked about making a late night drink in the kitchen. That really summed it up for me - you felt you have stayed in a family house that had been a home in the past but now serves as charming small hotel. We both loved the ordinary food shops, the slow pace of Lido life, the wide streets and the local men fishing on Sunday with picnics and wives in tow!

Brilliant
This is a traditional style hotel in a quiet street away from the bustle and craziness of the main area of venice. the hotel is clean and tidy and very comfortable. staff were friendly and helpful always and speak good english. breakfast is lovely and you can eat a good fill and drink great coffee before a day exploring. the location is great, lido is a lovely island and the street is a five minute walk to the water bus stop, which takes less than 20 minutes to reach main venice. restaurants and bars on lido are much cheaper than in main venice and good quality and a good atmosphere with lots of locals as well as visitors. all in all top place, would definitely recommend and will definitely go back.
