JW Marriott Venice Resort & Spa

Text and Photography by Mart Engelen

Our first stay at one of Marriott International’s luxury flagships: the JW Marriott Venice Resort & Spa. Set on its own private island in the Venetian Lagoon, it offers breathtaking views and beautifully landscaped gardens – a true haven of tranquillity for us during La Biennale di Venezia. It was also an introduction to the exclusive Travelux Club 2026.
