We stayed at the Oceano Mare in Sept 08. Nicola is more than gracious as a host and he goes out of his way to make sure you get the best and less touristy experience in a city built on its tourism. Rooms were very clean (we stayed in two as we booked an extra day later on) and it... more

We have returned from Venice after a 3 night stay in the Ocean Mare. The accomodation is very clean, nicely decorated and we had good breakfasts. Nicola is a nice, courteous gentleman.

This is just the most perfect place to stay in Venice. The hospitality and service from Nicola and Armida is exceptional. From their reply to... more
