Boats in Venice

* the fact of staying on a boat overnight is fantastic! * The central harbour facilities (shower, toilet) were very clean * The owner was flexible and friendly * There are some pavilions at the harbour, which may be used, but I assume, if it is sunny, there could be quite a demand * With great weather it might be better (we had some rain), as you can sit on deck then, but on the other hand, I imagine it must get very hot with too much sun... There is a ventilator on board, not an A/C.

The Venice Yacht Club is away from the centre, but I really liked the quiet charm of St. Elena and it is only 12 min walk to Giardini and 17 min to Arsenale. Very convenient for those coming to see the Biennale. If you like being on the water, if you don't mind a bit of walking, if you like strolling in an empty park, with only locals around, I would thoroughly recommend this place. Stefano is a very friendly person always available on the phone.
