Venetian Dream Achieved!

private dock friendly front desk big room fast email
I found this place provided a private dock and this was great for water taxi arrival. The front desk was super friendly, this made check-in easy. My room was big and so clean, and I really liked the balcony. They answered my emails fast before I came and this was awesome!
I did feel like the hot food selection needs improvements during the breakfast service. The options felt slightly limited.

The room included a stylish Murano glass and there were comfortable chairs. The beds had soft linens with great pillows, this created a restful sleep environment. The bathroom was spacious and modern and featured premium toiletries.
