B&B in Venice Lido
Choosing to stay at the Lido in order to visit Venice has its advantages: Villa Venice Movie can be reached by car without complicated luggage transfers thanks to the convenient ferry service between the mainland and the Lido. The possibility to board the ferry by car in Tronchetto combines freedom of movement with the pleasure of navigating the Laguna which is always an extraordinarily thrilling experience.
Villa Venice Movie is located behind the Palazzo del Cinema and the Palazzo dei Congressi. Furthermore Villa Venice Movie’s convenient location on the canal makes it possible to reach us by taxi from both the airport and the S. Lucia train station. A convenient water taxi links the Lido to St. Mark’s Square in just a few minutes. The water bus landing stage from where you can reach St. Mark’s Square, Piazza San Marco, and the pavilions at the Biennale etc… as well as the islands of Burano, Torcello and Murano in the Venice Laguna is within walking distance.
How to get here
BY CAR
Take the A4 motorway exit for Venice. When you reach the Ponte della Libertà (Freedom Bridge), continue in the direction of Tronchetto.
Follow the signs for the ACTV Ferry boat. You can drive onto a ferry headed directly for the Lido (the ferry takes about 50 minutes from the Tronchetto, via the Giudecca Canal and past St Mark’s Square -Piazza San Marco). From the Lido, it takes another ten minutes to reach Villa Venice Movie. At the Lido, follow Riviera S. Nicolò, pass Piazzale S.M. Elisabetta, and continue along Via Sandro Gallo. After about 300 metres, turn left into Via Lorenzo Marcello and, after 200 metres, you will arrive at a small bridge on a canal. Our Villa is on the right.
