Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Santa Croce, Venice

Had a great stay at Albertos. Alexa was there to meet us as soon as we got in touch to say we'd arrived earlier than expected. Apartment was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Beds comfortable. Location was good (on a quiet sidestreet) 30 yards away from No.2 bus (usually quite crowded) that takes you straight into Venice. Pattisserie across the road and a supermarket 5 minute walk away. Some tips during your stay. Ubers are very expensive but also watch out for local taxi drivers. We had one that took us on an extended tour of Mestre. Luckily we had our GPS on and caught him at it. Knocked down his 26 euro fare to 10 when confronted. Make sure you get a price and address of where you are going. Beware of ordering a large beer at some establishments or you might get a very expensive 1 Litre drink. A day trip to Verona is a good option by train (there are cheap fare options during the day). Don't worry about pushing and jostling to get on to Vaperettos. Every else does it.

Perfect accommodation, very quiet neighborhood, close to public transport (2-minute walk to the bus to Venice center). Ideal for relaxing and enjoying! Perfect cleanliness and easy contact with the host. We recommend!

This place was absolutely magically. The space is very well laid out and the hospitality of Alberto and Federica was great from meeting our taxi to check out. We cannot wait to visit again.

Federico’s place was really relaxing and quiet. All the services were next door: shops, restaurants, the beach and public transportation! All our needs were met and more! Beautiful garden and amazing walk to the beach. Lido at its finest!

Ornella's place was incredible. They very very flexible with the check in and check out. The place was very well placed. The apartment was clean and you could feel like home. Definitely suggest .

An amazing stay with a lovely and friendly host! Very helpful and kind - our stay was incredible and we would definitely book again!

This was one of our best stays on Airb&b. The place was a great escape from our busy day trips. Especially the pool and relaxing poolside lounge chairs! The apartment was comfortable and well stocked, plenty of towels, dishes, and paper supplies. The internet was fast and the AC was cold. We made fast friends with the owners, they were great. Roberto gave us tips on how to get around and was knowledgeable about the places we were visiting. We had a rental car and got to go to so many interesting places besides Venice. ( Bologna, Verona, Padova) We probably could have seen more, but we enjoyed staying poolside at the Villa. We made food platters and enjoyed them outside at a great picnic area, it was covered and had flowers around. The grounds were well kept and lovely to look at. The owners were super nice and I could tell how much effort was put into making there villa a paradise. This AirB&b gets a glowing review from us, we felt right at home.

Such a kind and welcoming as well as thoughtful host - and close to good restaurants, cafes, shops San Marco Sq AND the Biennale!

We were hesitant about staying on the Lido at first, worried it would be complicated to get to and from Venice, but it ended up being super nice! The boats were fast, frequent and easy to use, even late at night. Allesandro was a great host, always answering all of our questions and happy to help. The place itself was spacious and clean, just a short walk to the beach and downtown area. We drove to Venice and it was very nice to be able to park right next to the apartment for free in a safe neighborhood.

We took our two kids and they loved every minute. There is a large area that is enclosed for them to run around in and they enjoyed the swimming pool. The apartment felt like it had just been built, and the hosts were very helpful and friendly. We also made use of the bicycles with seats on the back for the kids. It took about 5 mins to cycle to the beach with them, lots of fun. Thank you so much for having us. We'll be back soon.

Our visit to Venice was an absolute delight, made the more memorable by staying at this wonderful apartment. It overlooks Canale della Giudecca and whatever the time of day the view is stunning. The apartment is an old family home full of charm and nostalgia….and we loved this home from home feel. Giorgio is the most welcoming of hosts and greeted us in person to settle us in and show us all the amenities available. Would recommend this most Venetian of places!

Great host, communication very good and Enrico is very responsive, any problem was fixed pretty quickly. Thanks Enrico!

House in a great position, tastefully furnished! Very clean and large, bright spaces. Comfortable and strategic to visit Burano. I recommend it to those who want an elegant and unforgettable experience

Our first stop in Italy, and Olivier made our stay so pleasant. We love everything about the property, spacious, clean, kitchen comes with everything we need for cooking, 2 bathrooms are perfect for a group, close to everything. Best place we stayed, we strongly recommend this place if you are looking for space and friendly host.

Paolo was incredibly genuine and thoughtful. Not only did he meet us at the pier to ensure we wouldn’t get lost, but he also checked in when we arrived at the airport to make sure we knew how to buy ferry tickets and other essentials. He provided fantastic local tips, from restaurant recommendations to nearby island attractions, and even guided us on where to shop for groceries so we could cook at home. The accommodation was about an 8-minute walk from St. Mark’s Square—close enough to enjoy the sights but far enough to offer a peaceful, local atmosphere. Initially, we were unsure about the lack of a traditional living room, but the large dining table became a cozy gathering spot for our family, fostering even more quality time. The space was also very generous, allowing our family of four to unpack comfortably and truly settle in. This stay felt like a perfect home base for exploring Venice.

A great modern apartment in a central location. The beach, restaurants and shops are all on your doorstep however the apartment is very quiet and has a lovely private terrace. Very clean and great amenities plus excellent air conditioning for an August visit. Identical to the pictures. The pool, sauna, steam room and gym are also very clean and make the Star Palace complex an excellent place to stay. A day trip to Venice is very convenient via a private bus pick up point which is 30 seconds from the apartment and then a boat trip from Jesolo, Piazza Faro. Cinzia was very responsive and helpful with the beach club booking advice etc. Lots to recommend.

A wonderful house with a private pool and an excellent host

Perfect home to stay

We had an incredible stay at this Airbnb! The house was absolutely amazing and matched the pictures perfectly. It was extremely clean, and you could tell great care had been taken to make it feel welcoming. Loretta and her husband greeted us so warmly and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. They truly are the loveliest hosts, even checking on us during the weekend to ensure everything was going smoothly. Their hospitality is rare to find in Airbnbs nowadays. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and would love to come back again in the future.

We really loved the place. The house looks much more beautiful in real life, as in the pictures and the view from the pool is really unique. The furnishings are of high quality and yet originally Italian, but modern and the bathrooms are renovated. It's all there, what you need for a great vacation, the amenities are really great for a vacation home. Umberto is a very nice host who is always available for questions/ help at the house. There are great wineries in the area and Venice is also within easy reach. We will definitely be back!

Everything was great, the place was nice, comfortable, spacious, well-equipped, and clean. The house and the yard are very nice. Comfortable access to the yard with a car, plenty of parking. Patricia is friendly and helpful, all recommendations for accommodation and hosts. We spent a wonderful time in Lido di Jesolo. A big hello to Patricia. We will recommend to friends and come again if the opportunity arises.

It was really nice house to stay with my mom and my son. We have been warmly welcomed by our guests. The location is perfect to visit the region and enjoy the beach. It’s well equipped, clean and big enough. The garden and the terrasse are also really nice for lunches and diners. I can only recommend so stay there!

Great apartment with directly adjacent swimming facilities behind the garden. The dining option in the covered conservatory was ideal at any time of the day with plenty of seating. Of the bicycles available, we used one, the rest we took ourselves, which is highly recommended to explore the island. Leo was also always immediately available when we needed him or had any questions. Our stay was great and we'd come back any time. Thanks again.

Very clean accommodation and very friendly host, helpful and present if necessary. The house is equipped with every service described and everything works perfectly. The neighborhood is very quiet and in a short time you can reach a lot of interesting things.
