As Canadians travelling through Europe we found Villa Angelica wonderful. We would recommend it to our closest friends. The rooms were beautiful, wonderful breakfast included, and great pains were taken by the owner to translate and make reervations for us on English tours. I can't say enough..because it was family friendly and accepted our older children without huge additional charges. An extremely good rate for the value.
One of the few establishments in the Venice area that accepts family and is soundproof.
...
thank you for all your help in finding our tour boat.
We will fondly remember the Villa Angelica and hope to return.

totally relaxed atmosphere - it was our third visit to Venice but first stay actually on the Lido - felt we got the best that Venice has to offer! - can't wait to come back again - possibly at Carnival time!

like clockwork - no problems - kept up to date with regard to local water bus strike on day of departure which was extremley helpful

relaxed, friendly, spotlessly clean, helpful staff, best of both worlds on visiting Venice!

As we had to check out in the morning, and our flight was in the evening, we had problems to leave our luggage somewhere safe.
The staff offered us to leave the luggage at the check out of the hotel till the time of our departure.

You could have made it clearer, the map was such a bad one, you need to include the whole of the Lido residential area or a stranger does not know where they are especially in the middle of the night!

I would add that good restaurants are local and can be advised on by the reception staff

Lido truned out to be an excellent place to stay. Very elegant and away from the hectic pace and noise of Venice proper. Need however to factor in some additional cost for ferrying to and fro and main spots (San Marco etc)
...
We had a small room but all the facilities were new : hair dryer, shower, heating, mini bar and we even had CNN! as compared with a B&B we had in Rome which was nice but not so well equipped.

Our Hostess was very gracious, we arrived a little early, but she made us feel immediately at home. She offered refreshments and snack in the garden while we waited for our rooms to be available (at no charge!!). Our host provided dorections and recommendations for dining on the Lido and for transportation to Venice and St Mark's. It was a very pleasent experience.
...
This residence was very enjoyable. The staff was very helful and gracious. We really enjoyed our stay at the Villa. The atmosphere of the Villa and the Lido were very relaxed and comfortable. This was a very pleasent atmosphere as a retreat from the pace and crowds of Venice. I would defintely recommend a stay on the Lido and at the Villa Angelica.

The Lido is a great place to stay while enjoying the ploeasures and sites of Venice.

We were exceptionally pleased with our stay at Villa Angelica and would like to thank Ilaria Pistorello for all of her help and suggestions. She was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. She is truly an asset to Villa Angelica. We didn't meet very many of the other staff there, but the people that we did meet were cordial and very professional.
...
What a gem the Villa Angelica is and we will certainly be refering both it and your website to any family and friends who may be visiting in Venice. Should we have the good fortune to be able to travel to Venice again in the future we would certainly stay at Villa Angelica again.
...
That it is a respite from the hustle and bustle of the other districts (islands?) in Venice (especially San Marco). That breakfast in the garden (complete with chirping birds and blossoming trees and floweres)is a wonderfully relaxing way to start your day exploring the sights of Venice.
...
Villa Angelica is a gem and the staff are very friendly, helpful and professional. Its location on the island of Lido is convenient to everything and is tucked away in a quiet location. The room that we had was very comfortable, clean and nicely decorated. Of our month long holiday in Europe, it is one of our nicest memories.

We were met at the Lido water station by the manager of Villa Angelica as our flight had been delayed and it was dark when we arrived. He was very kind.

Able to have a very leisurely breakfast out in the garden.

Everything was so simple to use and very efficient.

Very friendly like a family run hotel. Very clean, central to everything going on. Friendly and helpful staff. Everything was perfect.

Rooms are air conditioned, and there was a fridge in our room, which was handy for keeping drinks and snacks chilled. Outdoor shaded eating area looks over the neighbour's very pleasant yard. Quiet back street a few minutes walk from shops and restaurants, 5 mins from vaporetto and ferry. Children's swings next to outdoor eating area.
...
The staff were unbelievably kind, particularly the owner of the place (I don't know her name). The air conditioning unit unfortunately broke down the day before we arrived, which made the first couple of nights fairly unbearable. However, they bent over backwards, firstly to try and locate somewhere else for us to stay, and when that proved too expensive (rooms starting at about 200 euros a night at such short notice), they gave us the use of a full apartment a few blocks away, which whilst also without air conditioning, was more spacious and was higher up, thus getting a breeze. By the fourth night the air con was working again so we returned to our original room, which was absolutely lovely, modern and spotless. As with everywhere I stayed in Italy, I was overwhelmed with the both the quality of the accomodation and the friendliness and helpfulness of staff.

it is very easy to navigate, very reliable and very fast!
...
Maybe it was my fault but with the road description in the internet i had troubles finding the villa the first night i arrived.
...
The only small problem was that the air conditioner was not working at the time that i was there due to a technical problem and it was a bit too hot sometimes.
...
There was NO problem at all .. the prices in Venice are just very high in general
...
It was very helpful, very quick and reliable!!

It is a bed and breakfast place but does not feel like it. If feels like a hotel as the room have everything you could possible need.

The website is easy in use, well designed, etc. You can find there everything that is needed regarding your stay and even more important: you can trust the information on it.

Did not need it.

No. Didn't know that this was available.

Very natural, friendly people at the reception.

A recommender! Maybe a bit pricy when the promotional phase is over (new B&B), but everything in Venice is expensive.
...
I don't think so.
...
This website is comfortable to use and I find it a good sign that the information on the website is correct.
If you can keep this going, you deserve a quality label.

Kitchen quite well equipped - could have prepared a meal there.
Apatment is separate to hotel - 5 mins walk. Not very practical to use facilities eg garden.
Breakfast not provided. (Not a problem for us.)

Good value for money , very clean & comfortable. Not luxurious but price reflects that. Ideal for winter stay - in summer would want a balcony/place to sit out.

we had a lovely stay & all the accomodation was excellent. The only thing I did find un acceptable was the fact that it was very hot & the air conditioning was not working. We had specifically chosen a hotel with this.
Staff were very very helpful with helping us decide how to spend our time in Venice.
Everything was first class-apart from the lack of air conditioning.

I think that it would be beneficial to include kettles in the rooms
