Stunning views of Venice and superb service

As one approaches the 20-acre island, the eye is caught by the impressive 12th-century church, a heritage from the monastic settlements that the island housed in the past. Set among a centuries-old park, the elegant hotel offers 123 rooms, 45 suites and 29 signature suites – the largest array of luxurious accommodations in Venice – providing stunning views of Venice and the lagoon, the lush gardens and the historical inner courtyards. The hotel sits at the centre of a gracious park dotted with contemporary sculptures and its flower-filled, manicured gardens are home to pheasants who amble freely around.

The awarded fine dining restaurant Acquerello, La Dolce Brasserie and the Clemente Bar’s Sunset Terrace face the iconic skyline of Venice and cater to all culinary desires – various special private dinner areas are offered around the resort.

Guests may relax and exercise in various facilities, including an outdoor swimming pool set among palm trees and surrounded by cabanas and chaise longues, a tennis court, a 3-hole golf driving range, a mile-long jogging track bordering the lagoon, vintage bicycles, a fully equipped indoor/outdoor gym as well as a kids’ club. An additional highlight of the resort is the awarded indoor and outdoor SPA with an exceptional SPA suite.
