Great place to stay when visiting Venice

Loved this house. It is beautifully decorated and has everything you need. The location is great just a short drive to the beaches. The owners also supplied nice beach chairs, towels, and everything you need to sift for shark teeth. Will definitely try to book again on our next stay in Venice.
