English translation: "Direct medical service from Dr. Antonio Borsatti. This bathing establishment was opened for the first time on 15 June 1900 on the charming Sottomarina beach in Chioggia. Highly sought after for its balsamic air, the unrivaled effectiveness of the sea water, and the amazing healing effects of the sand. This beach, almost like velvet, slopes gently into the sea for a long stretch, offering both fun for children and complete personal safety. The establishment has a restaurant and café. Home-cooked food. Large dining room, reading and music rooms, terrace overlooking the sea, dressing rooms, huts, shower, medical service, etc."
