JW Marriott Venice Resort & Spa

JW Marriott Venice Resort & Spa sits on Isola Delle Rose, a private island in the Venetian lagoon. A short boat shuttle connects the property to the historic center.

The location is the primary draw, offering a silence that is impossible to find near the Rialto Bridge or the Doge’s Palace. While most visitors to Venice accept the constant density of St. Mark’s Square as the price of admission, staying here allows you to retreat from the crowds entirely. The resort provides a self-contained estate, complete with a gym, bar, and outdoor pool, making it a better choice for travelers who prefer to observe the city from a distance rather than live within its daily crush. If you value personal space over proximity to the main thoroughfares, this is the only way to experience the lagoon.
