Santa Maria Abbey Follina

This property by far exceeded my expectations. We stayed in Fico. The design of the apartment was impeccable - modern style allowed to rest and unload mentally after a busy day of sightseeing. Every detail was conveniently thought through. Kitchen had all necessary appliances and condiments to make meals if we wanted to. Very comfortable beds. Our apartment had two bedrooms and two baths which was perfect for our family of 4. Valentina contacted us 2 days before our stay to speed up our check-in process and make it as smooth as possible. Alvize greeted us when we arrived and showed us around the property. Having laundry was a huge bonus after 10 days of traveling in Italy. Dream location too! Walking distance to San Marco Basilica and Doge Palace, but miraculously, our street was quiet and away from tourists' crowds. Cherry on top was the church around the corner were we attended Vivaldi concert by Interpreti Veneziani. It was best Vivaldi performance I heard in my life (as a professional musicians myself I've heard a lot of great performers). If in Venice I will only be staying at this property.

The staff was outstanding and very helpful and prompt. The location was perfect for getting around the city and the hotel arranged for a complimentary water taxi and glass making tour on Murano. Superb first stop for our honeymoon!

The staff was friendly and the hotel very clean. It has free wifi and breakfast.
