The Venetian coast stretches along the shore of the Veneto region of Italy, most famous for the Venetian lagoon, and the within it, the historic city of Venice. On either side of this world famous city, tourists enjoy delightful beach resorts and charming fishing towns, perfect for day-trips on an Italian villa holiday. Renting one of NOVASOL’s villas in Italy on the Venetian coast promises families the opportunity to indulge in the cultural wonders of nearby Venice, while spending most days lounging on the beach and eating seafood in picturesque seaside towns.
When self-catering in Italy on the Venetian coast, the beaches of the region are easily accessible. One of the most popular beaches is a few miles up the coast from Venice, at the town of Caorle. Here tourists find a wide sandy beach (300m wide in places) which is the perfect place for building sandcastles on long beach days. The town itself is extremely pretty with colourfully painted houses and charming small shops and cafés. When in town, it is worth visiting the leaning byzantine bell tower which dates back over 1000 years.
Just down the road from Caorle, self-catering holidaymakers flock to Lido di Jesolo, a purpose-built resort with fine sandy beaches and fun beachside activities. The perfect place for young families on Italian villa holidays, the beaches here are clean and safe with lifeguards posted every few hundred metres. Visitors enjoy water sports on the beach, and in the town the child-friendly activities such as the aquarium keep everyone entertained.
Italy is a beautiful country and one that is teaming with nature parks and reserves. When thinking of natural Italian landscapes, most people think of the parks of Tuscany or Umbria, but the Venetian coast has wonders of its own. To the south, below Chioggia, the Po Delta Regional Park spans 54,000 hectares and is home to a vast number of birds and flowers. Book your villa in Italy for the right season and you might even catch a glimpse of the flamingos on a visit to the delta, a treat for youngsters and adults alike.
Renting accommodation in Venice is a smart way to enjoy the fabulous culture and atmosphere of the floating city. NOVASOL’s apartments in Venice are located within walking distance to world-renowned attractions such as the Basilica San Marco and the Doge’s Palace. The city is also a fabulous option for day-trips, and is easily reachable by boat from port towns along the lagoon. For all its tourists and international renown, Venice is still a place full of hidden gems, delicious restaurants and a romantic atmosphere to rival anywhere else in the world.
Staying in rented accommodation in Italy, on the Venetian coast, there are plenty of day-trip alternatives to Venice for inquisitive travellers. The small fishing port of Chioggia, only a short boat ride from Venice, is known as ‘little Venice’ and contains the pretty canals and restaurants of its big sister, but without the crowds and ski-high prices. There are few more delightful experiences in Italy than sitting in a quiet café here, eating seafood and looking out across the lagoon.
Italian villa holidays encourage food-lovers to enjoy the local family-run restaurants which Italy is so famous for. Along the Venetian coast, fresh seafood caught in the lagoon or in the Adriatic Sea is the main feature of most menus. The region of Veneto is also famous for its sparkling white wines with Soave and Prosecco both originating here, as well as desserts such as tiramisu. Villa holidays in Italy are not complete without one night of al fresco dining at the villa, and for this the region has an impeccable range of local cheeses and salamis – sure to please any family of food-lovers.
NOVASOL has a huge range of spectacular villas in Italy, ranging from smart apartments in Venice to large mansions along the coasts and inland.
