    Nothing!!

    This island hotel is similar to a resort. An excellent getaway from the noise of the city. If you really need some quiet time and enjoy a peaceful holiday, get into this island. The host was really excellent and was the best among all our hosts during our Europe tour. As there was a transport strike on the day we arrived, she made sure and guided us well throughout, to ensure we reach conveniently from the train station to the island. The co-host Mr. Emanual was equally supportive and helped us with various transport options to travel further to Milan. Full marks to both of them!! Finally, the breakfast was equally great.

    Dont forget repellent, there are many mosquitos! Room facilities could use basic renovation.

    Quiet place, lovely staff, good breakfast and home cooked dinner. Vaporetto connection with Venice and other locations reliable, boats run all day and there is a night line too.

    Not a point of criticism, just bring mosquito spray for Sant'Erasmo after dark!

    Great stay far off the masses and yet with quick connections to the other islands that worked out perfectly for us even with the film festival. We had a large room with a nice waterside roof balcony and good breakfast. I'll probably return actually.

    An absolute dream. Will be recommending to everyone.

    To begin with I was concerned that the travel would be a pain since Sant Erasmo is a water bus trip (with a few stops) to the main part of Venice. But with transport passes it was super easy. An air conditioner or extra fans would have been great in the weather we experienced as I found it very difficult to sleep with the muggy heat.

    Beautiful property located in a picturesque, peaceful area with the most wonderful staff. The staff were truly wonderful. They were so kind and accommodating from the moment we arrived to when we left. Staff contacted us to arrange for when we would arrive at the port so we could be picked up and did this each time we’d leave from Sant Erasmo to travel to other Venetian islands and we were greeted again on return. The balcony was the perfect place to sit with a coffee in the morning or drawing pad and pencil in the evening. I felt like I was living the Italian villa dream on those warm evenings. Being in a more rural area and the little glimpses into the authentic daily lifestyles away from the tourism was truly a highlight of all my travels. Would love to return here and will be recommending this place to all my family and friends.

    Best stay after the busy day in Venice

    Nothing really, wished we could stay there longer and use free bikes to explore the Sant Erasmus.. Maybe mosquitos in the evening but the staff offers to use the protective spray they keep in reception area

    As part of the family trip to Venice we stayed here for one night only and fully enjoyed our stay. Starting from the booking confirmation, communication was excellent, I've texted the property when we've boarded vaporetto (line 13) and 30 min later we have been picked up with mini bus and welcoming smile (the ride takes 3 min). Pre-booked dinner was excellent, breakfast was simple but very good. You really feel cared by the people who run this place, location is excellent, the beautiful and very quite island to relax after the busy and crowded Venice and only 30 min away! Next morning, on the way back to Venice we've visited Murano, it makes sense to get 1 day pass instead of two single tickets and have the freedom to use vaporettos anytime you wish... Will definitely stay at Il Lato Azzurro next time in Venice, highly recommend!

    I wish we stayed longer in this beautiful place. For while I felt like back in time for thousand years one to one with beautiful nature on the Venetian island St.Erasmo, surrounded by singing birds, peace, tranquility and few friendly mosquitoes. It definitely worth going there instead of staying at narrow built cemented downtown, traveling around 45-50 minutes by water trams

    For us it was perfect, but there isn't any shop near the hotel, so if you need smth, you should bring it. And you should leave the keys near the reception, for me it's not the best way of keeping the keys)

    Everything was wonderful! Transfer from Vaporetto to hotel, free bikes and really magnificent view. I also had cool and kinda mysterious experience of riding a bike at night. And free postcards! It was also really great. The staff was really nice and helpful, and the food was delicious) The hotel is quite far from the center of Venice, but it was perfectly ok for us, we left the hotel in the morning and returned quite late (but not really late, because last vaporetto leaves at about 10 pm). Also each room was named like Vaporetto stations (like other islands), and it was interesting and creative. Highly recommended 🌱

    Location was a bit hard to get to. Took us over an hour from the airport to get to the hotel. The hotel is in an island and it takes about 15 minutes to walk from the boat to the hotel. There was AC but did not cool the room too much.

    We were picked up at the boat stop. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast was good. Compared to current prices in the main Venice island, it was fantastic value and worth the effort. Would recommend for short stay.

    The hotel is not in the city center of Venice so you can enjoy quitely nature area, you can take a bike - which is offered free by the hotel and have a pleasant ride in the island. Its a perfect place to chill out.

    Only improvement would be for the lovely cleaners to make sure the person has left for the day before entering a room when doing inbetween cleans. Didn't bother me too much however being walked in on could have been worse if I had been showering or changing.

    Staff were very communicative, flexible and so lovely. They helped me at short notice a couple times. The accommodation was in beautiful green setting, quiet island with easy access to main island of Venice.

    Great location on pretty nice and calm island, we could borrow a bikes whenever we wanted which was so good for exploring the isle. The staff was really nice and helped us with every problem (f.e. they borrowed us repellent against the mosquitos, always offered us a trasport to the boat station etc.). Breakfast are in the form of buffet - smaller but really good. Thank you for everything.

    The bathroom roof is kind of low and need to be careful when taking shower. The island itself has a lot of mosquitoes. The hotel provides bug spray.

    Very nice staff. Include breakfast and transportation from boat line stop to hotel and bicycle. Great view to the ocean. Relaxing and quiet place.
