Ideal family vacation

Very nice location between Venice and Padua with excellent restaurants and bakeries within a mile or two. Friendly accommodating owners. House was nice for the five of us but kitchen and gathering space would be cramped for a larger group.

Absolutely Loved this Home!

I can't say enough about this home and the owners. They are so kind. The house and property is so beautiful. We plan on staying at this home again when we return to the Venice area. This home was my family's favorite stay on our trip.

The house was beautiful and more than ideal for my family. The whole property was so relaxing and just wonderful for all ages. Dario and Kristina have been the most amazing hosts. I had made a mistake in arrival time, and they changed their plans in making it happen for us. They are super sweet people, helped us with ideas for sideseeing, restaurants, and others. The communication was amazing. Quick responses! I would give them and their place a 10 star rating if it would be possible! And if we should come back to Italy, we will stay with them, no doubt about it!!

The property is in a quiet location, not on a main road. To make sure we had no problems finding it the property the owner met us at the road and lead us there. The house is a charming place. The owners were wonderful. We do not speak Italian and they were more than willing to make a couple dinner reservations for us. I highly recommend this property.

Lovely place

We rented this place to have our time away from busy Venice but close enough to go back and forth. We also visited Padua and enjoyed it. Our last day we made easy lunch and had lunch in the backyard and still walk to the restaurant and had a really nice dinner. Host was fantastic. Nice neighborhood.

A pleasant stay in Dolo

Everything about the house was as advertised. The hosts live on the property, and were very responsive to anything we needed. We were staying in Dolo so that we could visit with family so the location was fine. You are about 30 minutes to Venice by car. If we have any reason to go back, we would definitely stay here again.

Spacious and comfortable 2 story home nicely furnished in a small rural area between Venice and Padua (both cities are worth visiting, each about 30 minutes from the residence by car). We slept 10 people from a large family among the 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. East parking, nice yard with kids play area. Cristiana was pleasant, available, and helpful.

Perfect for family

Had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. This residence was perfectly located outside of Venice. Allowed us to enjoy local life. The owners were so kind and hospitable. Gave us recommendations for restaurants in nearby town. Had a few issues with hot water and internet, when called they answered promptly. We would stay here again. Wish we had more time to enjoy the yard!

Beautiful home in a beautiful countryside location

Cristiana and Dario are so welcoming and accommodating. We had a group of 12 and slept very comfortably. Unfortunately it was the worst storm in a decade so we didn’t get to enjoy the garden but it was beautiful! My only regret is that we only stayed here one night. I hope to come back and spend more time at this home in the future!

A lovely little place in Mira

This property is just lovely. We were welcomed by Dario at the gate and his wonderful hospitality continued until we left. We were impacted by a nationwide train strike and Dario went above and beyond to help us get into Venice nonetheless. The property was clean, comfortable and well equipped - perfect for our group of 13. Very convenient access to train and bus facilities into Venice. Thanks so much to our host… hopefully we’ll come back again soon.

Great Host

The property is everything the listing says, it slept 11 members of my family very comfortably. So many bathrooms it was easy for us all to get ready for the day. Beautiful country setting. The home owners were very accommodating. My family thanked me multiple times for booking this home. My only regret was that we didn’t really get to take advantage of the yard, or spend much time in this beautiful house and we didn’t get to spend anytime conversing with the host because we had a very busy schedule planned. Highly recommend staying here.

Fabulous property with wonderful hosts!

Cristiana, Dario and Bruno, their adorable 12 year old Bassett Hound welcomed our family of 8 with a bottle of cold Persecco and sweets. Their beautifully restored 200 year old home sits on a lovely park like setting. Since we did not have a rental car we relied on Dario to transport our group of 8 into Dolo for dinners, to the train station and airport. Cristiana and Dario couldn’t have been more accommodating! Their recommendation for dinner at “Al Cristo” in the quaint town of Dolo was so good we returned the next evening. This property is comfortable, clean, with wonderful owners! We highly recommended this rental if you are looking to stay in the Venice area.

Beautiful Home! Great hosts!

Wow wow wow! This is a beautiful place to stay on the countryside not too far from the Venice main square. A short walk to the bus station will take you there. The hosts Dario and his wife live in the house next door and are very accommodating. They will take you to the market or bus by request for a fee, but definitely worth it if needed. They answer any questions you have phone in a timely matter. They left welcome gifts for us. Dario met the taxi on the road by bike to guide us to the house. This is a great place for a big family! We fit 10 people comfortably.

A Wonderful Retreat Between Venice and Padua

Located in the quiet rural middle space between bustling Venice and historic Padua, this secluded retreat is a gem for exploring the area, with many delightful sights and restaurants to enjoy within a very short drive as well. We wanted to see both Venice and Padua but did not want to stay in either place, so this mid-point spot was ideal, and proved to be the perfect spot for us. The host was wonderful. Excellent communication. All the amenities available and a very suitable place for myself and three adult children to say. Each of the 4 bedrooms had its own en suite full bath. This property has been very well taken care of, has all the modern appurtenances, but also is decorated in a very charming way. Comfortable and serene, we would stay here again if we wander back to northern Italy. Brava!

Exactly as advertised- sophisticated county house.

Dario did a lot of the work on the restoration of their home (maybe all of it) and it was beautiful craftsmanship. The country house was very comfortable for our family group of fifteen-grandparents, parents and children. Three of the four large bedrooms could accommodate four persons and the fourth bedroom was a comfortable king sized bed which slept two. The woodwork inside the house was lovely and added to the warmth. Cristiana made us feel so welcome and was a ray of sunshine. She served the wonderful meal that Dario prepared which was a highlight for us to be able to remain comfortably at home after a day of sightseeing in Venice. The yard and garden were lovely and we would certainly return in warmer weather to enjoy more of the outdoor surroundings. The town of Dolo was charming and fun to see. We had gelato in town and a very good meal. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality. Our whole family hopes to see you again in the future! Pat Franks and Family

Close to Venice, gracious, helpful hosts, beautifully restored home, accommodating large groups

The warm welcome given by Christiana and Dario in spite of our unplanned late arrival was our first impression of this excellent property and surroundings. We loved the house, and appreciated the eye given to detail in the woodwork and integrated 'Murano' glass creations. We were also able to purchase some glass from a selection tastefully displayed in the house where we stayed. Our group of 13 easily had enough room to sleep, relax and eat, while the lawn and play area was enjoyed by the younger ones. English is spoken which was helpful in planning our stay as well as conversing with our caring hosts. We were happy to leave our vehicle at the local train station (approx 5-8 min away) and take the train into Venice. There are beautiful fields surrounding this property and it was very quiet. The radiators kept us perfectly comfortable as the temperatures in April can be chilly still. Christiana and Dario are the perfect hosts, helpful and discreet. Thank you so much for a great experience and we hope to repeat it soon! Kisses to Bruno! A definite recommend!

Amazing Italian Village

We were a family of 9. And our experience with Dario and his beautiful wife were amazing. The house was spotless, beautifully decorated and most of all it was the trutly Italian experience. We LOVE IT!!!! Will definitely come back again. It was very close to Venice and all the activities we had schedule. And to top it off they cook an AMAZING Italian meal. The whole italian experience. DARIO is an amazing chef. Once again the best place to stay in Venice Italy. Will recommend to all my friends. Everything described in the rental overview is correct and more.

The icing on the cake

Dario and Cristiana's villa was the perfect place for us. They were were the perfect host and hostess. We were a party of eight from Ontario Canada. Dario and Cristiana picked us up at the train station in Mira which was a short 15 minute train ride out of Venice, and transported all of us and our luggage to their villa about 15 minutes away. The villa is absolutely beautiful situated in the countryside with gorgeous gardens and lots of space to relax. As one of our group put it "it was the icing , whipped cream and the cherry on top" finale of our 12 day vacation. If you have an opportunity or the time Dario is a fabulous chef and cooked us our dinner the last evening we were there. The best Tiramisu any of us have had. Five stars does not seem to be enough if there were 10 stars it would be tops
