Of all the Venetian boltholes you could call home for a weekend- Ca di Dio offers truly spectacular Italian style. A centuries old palace reimagined as a luxurious boutique- the hotel features serene and private internal courtyards- luxurious suites and fabulous views. As well as its very own docking point so you can step into a gondola straight from the hotel. Inside- Italian design influences are brought to ravishing life with colourful Murano glass lighting- tiled floors- indulgent marble bathrooms and elegant textiles. Some bedrooms and suites overlook the waterways of the city so you can wave at passing gondolas. Others take in the peaceful courtyards filled with magnolia and mimosa trees. Enjoy snacks and light bites among the greenery during the day- shaded by oversized parasols- or sip expertly-mixed cocktails as dusk falls over the city. Ca di Dio is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
