Great experience with the traditional Italian countryside lifestyle,which is peaceful and quiet because it is away from the city. The room is not quite as nice as Ritz-Carlton, but for money, I think it was worth every penny. The host gave my kids a tour through the whole farm, getting to see baby calfs, a pony, and cows getting milked!... More

We picked this villa to be away from Venice but close enough to ride a bus into Venice and to experience a real Italian farm and cooking. We received very good instructions on how to get to the Villa by bus and had no problems. Maria meet us at the bus stop and helped us to get our luggage to... More

This was a very enjoyable place to stay. There are approximately 8 rooms in the original house and 8 in converted stables. I stayed in the stables. The rooms are simple, clean, and comfortable. This place is well located to take day trips around this area of the Veneto countryside. I wouldn't stay here, however, as a base to travel... More

For those of you looking for a reprieve from the tourist deluge of Venice, Villa Mocenigo provides a comfortable, authentic Italian experience all its own. While getting to this quiet, rustic farmhouse proved to be somewhat difficult by bus, my family and I were immediately welcomed and made comfortable by Maria and her family. The bedrooms were clean, private, and... More

Villa Mocenigo is a cool and peaceful oasis from the heavy tourist crush of July. Maria and her family made this one of the most unique and unexpectedly restful stops of our 21 day adventure. Our 10 year old son really enjoyed the working farm environment. In fact, we had to pry him away from the animals to get him... More

Staying at Villa Mocenigo was an incredible experience. The villa itself and the farm are very interesting. The food is absolutely amazing! It is definitely worth it to be back for dinner. Bus from Mirano into Venice is a 5-10 minute walk from the villa, so it is fairly easy to get into town from there. After spending the day... More

Stayed one night. Pros: Change of pace from hoteling around Italy. Clean room. Good breakfast with homemade bread and jam. Cons: The temperature was very hot and the air conditioner did not work. We were unable to communicate with the owner (Luigiana) as her daughter, who speaks English, was out of town, about how or when the A/C was to... More

I choose Villa Mocenigo after reading about it in Rick Steve's book. We were looking for a place to stay near Venice where we could park our car and get to Venice fairly easily. The pictures online made it look beautiful and it seemed like a fantastic deal. It was a good deal, we save a lot of money compared... More

My husband and I recently stayed 3 nights at Villa Mocenigo when travelling to Italy and thought it was perfect and would love to return (hopefully!) one day. The bus to Venice goes direct (about 40 minutes or so) and the station is a 5 minute walk away. We found that after a busy day of sightseeing in Venice each... More
