We had a bit of an italian theme last year. Our second visit was in the August, to Venice.
It was hot, crowded, stunning - and we'd go again in a heartbeat.
We had 4 nights in the 5* Hotel Metrople right on the Riva degli Schiavoni nr the water's edge with its own jetty and about 500m from the Doge's Palace and St Mark's. In its palazzo days, Vivaldi wrote his "Four Seasons" there.
For a triple room, including shared launch transfers it was £1800 via lastminute dot com. We thought for that property it was incredible value.
Highlights were all the usual - Dodge's Palace, St Mark's, Peggy Guggenheim's, cocktails at Florian's and bellinis at Harry's Bar, a gondola ride, private launch to Murano, etc etc.
Next time, we'll make sure we get to the Teatro la Fenice for the opera.
Loved it. Great destination, especially for a special occasion.
Some pics for a flavour:

Venice is wonderful, this was our second visit. In fact this time last week we were in Venice.
One tip ...visit in Spring or Autumn. I hated the heat, the crowds this time. Venice has visitors all year round but its full of LOUD Americans in summer.
We stayed at Carlton on The Grand as part of a package from SECRET ESCAPES.
We celebrated out 25th Anniversary on Tuesday and made the night at the Pavarotti tribute in Verona our treat...in fact we had treats all the way round. Based ourselves in Volterra and went to : Siena, Florence, Verona, Venice and Lake Garda.
Kelper - I agree Venice early in the year - FAB!!!
You could always treat her to a few nights at the Danieli..Its only 13,000 euros a night!!!!
