Hotel Colombina

This guide will take you to all of my hotel stays all around the world. It will ONLY list places that I truly enjoyed and would return to. I have always wanted to have all of my hotels in one place and this is a great way to do it and to share it! I will go in alphabetical order by country and will add to it as I travel! Hopefully you find this helpful on your future trips!!! **If you're familiar with this site then you likely know that I will get a small commission at no cost to you for my booking.com links listed here. Please know that it helps me so much as a creator and someone who is sharing all my tips. I also have NOT left out airbnb stays or other great places that are not on booking.com because I want to share the true best experiences we've had with or without commission! I hope this also shows that you can trust my reviews and recommendations are made with honesty and only about places I've personally stayed.

There is so much to see and do in and around Venice, Italy that you could easily spend quite a few days here. This guide will detail MORE than enough things to do in 3-4 days in Venice and the surrounding islands. If you want MORE to do I've also spent time in the Prosecco Hills and the town of Treviso which are both about 45 minutes outside of Venice, feel free to reach out. I have also spent time in the nearby Dolomites so again, I am happy to consult with you about any of those areas as well! This guide will detail why you should visit Venice. -How to best arrive & exit Venice & how to get around while you are there. -Include multiple options for where to stay, all of which I have personally stayed in and can recommend. From luxury (our honeymoon hotel), to airbnb with an incredible water door onto the canal, to a more budget friendly hotel that also has a stunning canal view. There are options for everyone in Venice. -It will detail some amazing things to see, do, eat, and drink in Venice! -It will also detail how to take small day trips to neighboring islands of Burano, Murano, Torcello, and Mazzorbo. Why Venice? Venice is such a fantastic and romantic city.  Walking along or boating along the canals is an experience I truly believe you want to have in your lifetime.  Once you get the hang of it, it definitely feels like a "little big city".  You can walk to anything in Venice if you don't mind getting your steps in.  You can also get around by water bus, water taxi, and the famous gondolas.  You can eat SO well here and drink great wines at reasonable prices.  There are countless things to do and see here and the islands off of Venice are equally as exciting and beautiful!  This guide will detail tons of options for things to do in Venice.  Most of them I have done, I will add a few things I haven't done that I find would be truly worthwhile.  This way you can pick and choose what appeals best to you.  ***I am also available for consultation about your Venice trip and would love to talk to you and work with you to create your perfect experience!

I have visited Italy pretty extensively now. I have been to Tuscany, Puglia, the Dolomites, Mont Blanc, Amalfi, Cinque Terre + Ligurian Coast, Rome, etc and spent a lot of time exploring the country. Along the way I have gathered up some recommendations from places I've loved. This will be a growing guide as I continue to travel throughout Italy so make sure to save it and check back for updates! I have also in my visits seen/visited hotels that look fantastic and have great locations, amenities, etc. Or put my friends/family up in places that they've since reviewed for me. I will make sure to be very clear throughout this guide which stays I recommend from personal experience and which I believe to be great recs. ***My notes on each place will be in the notes section under the stay so make sure to click to read them!***
