Description

There is only one place

where the magic of Venice

and the poetry of nature

intertwine ...

VILLA SACCHETTA : all the luxury of an exclusive villa in the enchantment of the Venice Lagoon

A hidden jewel between the islands and the lagoon

Surrounded by a magical panorama and a unique natural environment – that of the very ancient fish farms of the Venice Lagoon - Villa Sacchetta is an exclusive villa thought out for those who desire to discover and experience with the utmost discretion a distinct Venice, enjoying a convenient, yet secluded location and at the same time remaining in the background of the marvelous wonders of the city.

A new kind of vacation is now possible

In a pollution free marine ecosystem as that of the Venetian fish farms, that have been unaltered since the days of the Serenissma, Villa Sacchetta offers the privilege to enjoy a purely private stay within a natural envirnoment unknown to many and now accessible to an elite group of guests.

Living in a fish farm : a unique experience

Extensive hunting and fishing are activities traditionally practiced in the fish farms since the sixteenth century : amongst the islands, lakes, dams and canals, it seems that time has stopped in this corner of the lagoon. A large population of fishermen, boat and water connoisseurs dedicated to hunting and fishing have been living here for centuries in harmony with the environment. It is a fantasy like microcosm that pulsates around Villa Sacchetta, surrounded by the vegetation of nature and the sea, overlooking two of the thirty fish farms in Venice : the Sacchetta and the Sacchettina fish farms.

Arriving to Villa Sacchetta, by land or by sea, it seems like you are being catapulted into one of Canaletto’s paintings : the soft amber light of the sunset caressing the still water and the view that extends from Burano to Saint Erasmo towards infinity revealing the magic of an unusual Venice far from the noise and fanfare.

It is right in these Venetian fish farms that we are able to captivate the bond between Venice and the water : the sea is the so called “road” in which the Serenissima extracted its wealth, trade, conquest and glory from; the sea is the “cushion” on which one lays its head on ( like a sort of forest of upside down tree trunks) the lavish Venetian palaces ... in short, the element in which the myth of Venice would not exist.

One can hear the music of the swans, cormorants, herons, gulls and the pink flamingos along the fish farms at sunset, that peek throught the reeds, rummaging among the tamarisk trees and hide among the branches of willows and poplars waiting to catch their prey. There are several equipped ponds for extensive fish farming along the riverbank, which marks the border between the fish farm and the lagoon. The so called “lavorieri” which regulate the inflow and outflow of water, located at the main entrance, cross the river that follows into a set path which bond the fish to be caught. The “Cason di valle”, that is the fishermen’s home, process and preserve fish and provide shelter for the boats and the gear. In every season you can see different and fascinating activities : in springtime you can see the birth of the newborn fish followed by the end of the summer when the fish are called out to sea and are then sorted and captured from one reservoir to another. Once caught, the fish are then selected according to size. The fish that are about 2 or 3 years old are caught and processed while the younger ones are destined to the winter ponds. Those who choose Villa Sacchetta, ancient “Cason di Valle”, luxuriously restored, can easily see the different stages of the fish farm within the comfort of the Villa. The residence is surrounded by 120 hectares of exclusive private lagoon property that is an ideal scenario for bike trails, long walks in the silent paths or hunting in the misty muffled autunmn.

Venice is 10 minutes from the Villa navigating from Pordello channel with a private boat or with a taxi-boat that picks up the guests directly from the private docking bridge right outside the Villa. Art, history, culture, museums, events, monuments and boutiques of the most romantic city in the world are always at your fingertips thanks to the English mother-tongue speaking guide available to the guests at during their entire stay.

Uniqueness and confidentiality are the characteristics of the context that surrounds Villa Sacchetta. The main residence, that is, the traditional “Cason di Valle”, accommodates 4 people and a separate residence is located just behind the main Villa that can accomodate another 2 guests and the personnel. The Villa has been completely restored based on the bio-housing scheme criteria. It offers its guests the pleasure of a refined luxury and the comfort of a high, and at the same time very discrete, technology from touchscreen to projector concealed commands.
