Allow me to express my admiration for the extraordinary experience we had at Cipriani's bar, despite not being guests of the hotel itself. Our decision to visit was solely fueled by the allure of sampling their renowned Bellini, a temptation impossible to resist. We chose to stay at another 5-star hotel in Venice but felt compelled to indulge in the charm of Cipriani. Venturing to Giudecca island, where the hotel is nestled, proved to be a wise choice. Recognized as a less congested alternative to the bustling heart of Venice, the 15-minute ferry ride from the city adds a touch of exclusivity. The complimentary boat transfer, a gesture reserved for Cipriani's guests, enhanced the overall elegance of the establishment. Upon arrival, the serene ambiance enveloped us, accentuated by impeccably maintained gardens. The bar, echoing the grandeur of its long-standing history, exceeded our expectations. The service, a testament to Cipriani's legacy, seamlessly blended efficiency with warmth, creating an a**osphere of unparalleled hospitality. The staff's dedication to ensuring a memorable experience was evident in their attention to detail. As we indulged in the iconic Bellini, crafted with the finest white peaches in season, we savored the culmination of artistry and flavor. The timing of our visit, in late May, perfectly aligned with the availability of the earliest white peaches, adding an extra layer of delight to our experience. In essence, Cipriani's bar on Giudecca island is a haven of tranquility, blending opulence with a touch of Venetian charm. The combination of a serene setting, impeccable service, and the allure of the Bellini makes it a must-visit, even for those not lodging within its luxurious confines. Our journey to Cipriani was a symphony of sensory delights, leaving an indelible mark on our Venetian sojourn.
