Arriving by train: from S.Lucia Station you can choose the following: either the public boat, line 51 or 61, disembarking at the Lido, S.M.Elisabetta , or a private water taxi that is much quicker but also more expensive.
During the summer period (June/August) you can also reach the Lido taking the tourist boat line no. 2.
Arriving by car/coach: if you decide to reach the hotel by car/coach just follow the signs "Venezia-Lido, imbarco Ferry Boat" situated at the end of the long bridge connecting Venice to the mainland: the public ferry boat line is N. 17. You can also leave your car in one of the car parks at Piazzale Roma or on the Tronchetto island. Should you do the former, take boat number 51 or 61; for the latter, first you need to get to Piazzale Roma taking one of the shuttle buses. In both cases, get off at the Lido stop, Piazzale S. Maria Elisabetta.
Arriving by plane: from Marco Polo airport you have two options via water: the public boat "Alilaguna" or the water taxi, which is certainly quicker but also more expensive.
