Villa Giustinian

Attractive magnet for culture lovers and distinguished connoisseurs

A Venetian villa in the so-called “villeggiatura” has become an attractive magnet for culture lovers and distinguished connoisseurs of the finer things.
One of the most beautiful of palatial homes is located close to the “city of lagoons” in a small town much sung by art guides – the picture-book village of Portobuffolé. Better known, perhaps, as “Italy’s smallest town”.

Step in to the Italy of the late renaissance

From the moment you step inside the villa, you embark on a journey back in time, to the Italy of the late renaissance.
It is to a vivacious doge of around three hundred years ago – who had his summer residence here – that we owe the fact that the “Bishop’s Suite” has become such a popular place to stay, especially with young lovers and newlyweds.
Since its construction by a Venetian dynasty of doges, the Giustinians, not very much has changed.
With an abundance of good taste and sensitivity, today’s owners and your hosts have fulfilled a personal dream, transforming the bishops’ villa into a magical palatial hotel. Both building complexes, which also include a small chapel – and are located amid a wonderfully maintained park – remain radiant in their old glory.

Romantic weekend in a four-poster bed

With so many different packages to choose from, including romantic weekends spent sleeping in a four-poster bed, a weekend during Venice’s carnival festivities, culture & gourmet days, and last, but not least, their Wine-Harvest Weekends spent amongst the region’s most beautiful vineyards, the daily routine will soon be completely forgotten.
But people are also drawn here by the restaurant, famous far beyond the country’s borders for its unique fish creations. Its own quiet “enoteca”, with a fine selection of wines and a full selection of Grappa, invites you to sample and while away some peaceful moments, while it is also possible to purchase products to enjoy upon your return home – the perfect culmination of this Venetian dream.
