the least satisfying of a very interesting tour...Eur. 12 to enter via a tightrope staircase, without railing, a single room to visit with little furniture, poorly maintained. A single service in pitiful conditions, rude staff

The villas are interesting, especially the parks, wonderful, well-kept with incredibly beautiful trees. The only disappointment, perhaps because the most famous was the Foscari Malcontenta, a work by Palladio but for 12 euros a single service (better not to go into detail) rude staff to say the least. Very small internal part visible with a mountaineer's staircase, too bad....

Villa Foscari La Malcontenta: nothing noteworthy; externally the façade with Palladian columns, which has not been maintained, like the entire building; disappointing internal visit, furnishings (few things) not original, few rooms (upper floor cannot be visited, being private); high entry cost and absolutely not justified (probably only the owner is happy..); outdoor spaces with green lawn, nothing more. Too bad for the "false advertising"; The girls who are tour guides are very kind

I didn't know this Palladian villa, spectacular and well kept. It has a small front garden overlooking the river, then behind it there is a larger garden with also a greenhouse. Recommended visit!

Villa Foscari, known as La Malcontenta, is a Venetian villa designed by Andrea Palladio. It is located in Mira, near Venice, along the Naviglio del Brenta. It is a majestic villa

Somewhat disappointing visit, 12 euros are madness for this villa which is not very well kept and consists of 5 rooms. Visited in 30 minutes. The outdoor park is nice but nothing more. ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTED.

Truly spectacular villa. The only villa on the Brenta designed by Palladio. The harmony and majesty of the structure and the history represent a truly interesting and very pleasant experience. Not to be missed
