TESTIMONIES
Frédérique Lecoindre - Hanse 50
A dream...the sunset every evening on San
Pietro and dawn on the Dolomites… and Croatia,
within very close reach…
The reception at the Marina is unique. We feel
at home, they all speak english or french!
No more risks on the road, no more traffic jams,
1 hour flight… all this is priceless.
Jeff (Alain Dominique Perrin)
60 foot prototype
A very quiet Marina in the Laguna, a couple of
strokes from the Lido and Piazza San Marco.
Very attractive winter rates, possibility to lift the
boat for the winter. Multilingual reception! Great!
Frank Cammas
Sailing on the Grand Canal between San Marco and
San Giorgio is amazing ! We were based in
La Certosa and have benefited with their local
infrastructures and know-how. Charming
and efficient reception.

Jacques Vapillon, Photographer
A very warm welcome from the staff, an ideal
situation, a professional team, all this cannot be
ignored if you want to winter your boat. A lively
and dynamic place we love and we strongly
recommend.
Jean Marie Gerbeaux - Wauquiez 47
A magical Marina! A haven of peace,
a harbour in the countryside, 10 mn away from
Piazza San Marco... Incredibly charming!
An unforgetable view on the Serinissima… And,
contrary to what many think, it is very easy to
navigate on the Laguna…
Sébastien Leber - Swann 55 FLO
Président YC de Porquerolles
The Marina in La Certosa is a haven of tranquility
compared to the agitation of historical Venice.
Jean François Bentz – Whimsy 24m S/Y
For those who have come to Venice by sea (always
a magical experience). For those who have
experienced the bricole of the Dogana and the
boiling bubbles of the Gran Canale, La Certosa is a
small paradise... 5mn away from the Arsenale in your
dinghy!
Sunset on Venice with the Laguna in the foreground
is an amazing sight!
In La Certosa, one feels a Venetian, not a tourist.
27
Jean Luc Chaboud - Waimiti, 45m S/Y
Available and competent staff. More than
reasonable rates, safe moorings, even for big boats:
La Certosa is a dream.
For our guests and clients, it is very quiet, 5 mn away
from historical Venise.
We will keep a very good souvenir.
We sail all year round all over the world. For me,
La Certosa is one of the best stopovers and
certainly the best in Venice.
Bruno Troublé - FARR 54
I always thought it was impossible to come to
Venice on a boat.
What a discovery! Peace and quiet, no tourists,
only 10mn from the centre… A marina in the
countryside run by competent people who have
become friends!
A wonderful place to make the most of Venice
and the Adriatic Sea, 1h flight from anywhere in
Europe all over the year…Come and spend
week-ends on your boat during the Winter,
you will be amazed!
A very accessible jewel waiting to be discovered.

Alberto Peruzzo owner of S/Y Nativa and of
Arzanà Navi
« Still few people know that Venice offers very good
services for mega-yachts. Venzia Certosa Marina is a
perfect home port for our yachts of 50 metres. We
have found an excellent mooring with 5m depth -
exceptional for the lagoon - and a professional staff
that is always available to offer assistance. It is a big
privilege to keep my boat in centre of Venice and
use it as ‘pied à terre’ in the world’s most beautiful
city and to be able to see the marvelous dawns and
sunsets on the city and the lagoon » owner of S/Y
Nativa and of Arzanà Navi
Giovanni Soldini, blue water sailor and co-
founder of Vento di Venezia.
« I have seen touristic harbours in the whole
world, but Venzia Certosa Marina is really unique!
A mooring at the Certosa deserves sailing up the
Adriatic Sea, visiting Croatia on the way. It allows
you to make more of the city at any season, living
there, while your boat can benefit from the best
services possible. Today, the Certosa is a
multifunctional location, where a friendly and
professional staff offers excellent hospitality in its
hotel, bar and restaurant with possibilities to
organise your events in the marvelous park ».

« The Certosa’s competent staff will make your
visit a perfect, seamless experience. »
Navigation Venise, 2008
« The Certosa is the yachting reference
in the lagoon of Venice.»
Bell’Italia, 2014
« It is a yachting centre, open to all,
in a «green lung.»
Dove Italia 2014
« Wandering around Certosa's marina, as a family
heads out kayaking, children kick a football about
on the grass and three brothers from Burano hand
build bespoke wooden boats in the shipyard, it
seems that a happy equilibrium has been struck
here between commerce and local culture.»
Easyjet traveler, 2016
