Lido di Jesolo vacation rentals

Venetian sun in Lido di Jesolo

Craving something beyond glassy canals, sparkling masks and legions of tourists? Why not escape to the beach with Lido di Jesolo vacation rentals? Just a stone's throw from Venice, the lively beach resort is fringed by an 8-mile stretch of golden sand lined with luxury apartments, designer boutiques and colorful gelato shops – not to mention Venice's top bars and nightclubs. Daytripping to Venice is a breeze, which means you can also get your fix of lavish marble palaces, soaring cathedrals and world-class art museums.

Make a splash the Lido di Jesolo aquapark

Strewn with waterslides, splash pools and pirate ships, Aqualandia is Lido di Jesolo's trump card. The Caribbean-themed waterpark is one of the largest in Europe, drawing a constant stream of families. With spacious living areas and sparkling pools, Lido di Jesolo vacation rentals provide a dream setting for family getaways. At just an hour from Venice, Lido di Jesolo is a fantastic base for exploring the "Queen of the Adriatic". You could easily spend the day gazing up at the magnificent Basilica di San Marco, admiring surrealist works at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, or strolling over the Ponte di Rialto.

Dance the night away in Lido di Jesolo

It's hard to resist the allure of Lido di Jesolo's gorgeous beach. It's dotted with brightly colored umbrellas and plush sunbeds overlooking the sparkling Adriatic Sea. Lido di Jesolo vacation rentals make the most of the setting, with compact condos just steps from the sand. Just a few blocks inland is the main strip, where you can sip on Italian espresso at sun-dappled cafes or devour wood fired pizza and seafood linguine at white tablecloth restaurants. Beyond the beach, Lido di Jesolo boasts some of Venice's glitziest nightclubs, with the cream of the crop often hosting international DJs.

Catch Lido di Jesolo's Carnival celebrations

Summer is high season in Lido di Jesolo, when Venice enjoys long days and lashings of sunshine. Crowds peak from June to August, as well as at major events, such as New Year's Eve, the Carnival of Venice and Easter. For a quieter beach scene, consider visiting in late spring or early fall, when temperatures hover around the 70s. It's worth noting that many of the resort's businesses shut up shop from October to April. That's fantastic if you prefer a laidback scene – otherwise, it's best to avoid these months.

Discover the Venetian Lagoon in Lido di Jesolo

Set on the Adriatic Sea, Lido di Jesolo lures sun seekers with golden sand and crystal-clear water. It sits on the cusp of the Venetian Lagoon, a shallow bay anchored by the city of Venice. While the beach is the biggest drawcard, Lido di Jesolo also unlocks access to the picturesque Venetian countryside. Bicycle tours are a fantastic way to discover the patchwork of silvery vineyards and rolling farmland that form the backdrop to the legendary watery city.
