Set in a 16th-century palazzo Papadopoli on the Grand Canal, the place exudes calm and sophistication. The views are superb, and rooms are generously proportioned.
The restaurants are equally amazing: the grand Yellow dining room overlooks the canal, and the Red dining room enables outdoor eating in the summer. Locally sourced ingredients are pride of place; pasta and bread are freshly made in the kitchen.
The spa is superb as well providing everything from manicures to massages to body scrubs, and the cozy gym has inspiring views of the city. There is also an impressive library, delightful roof terrace, and a hidden jetty entrance for arrival by speedboat.
“My wife and I wanted to travel through Chile, Bolivia and Peru and were slightly daunted by the logistics of organising such a varied trip.
John Resse, USAChris was incredibly helpful not only mapping out the most exciting and engaging trip, but also using his extensive personal knowledge of the best things to do. They were reassuringly efficient in organising the trip, monitoring how we were doing during the trip and making adjustments to improve the trip.
Tracy Williams, UKChris’s passion and enthusiasm encouraged us to do things we wouldn't have thought to do, which gave us fantastic memories of the trip of a lifetime.”
