Have rented a house in Montecatini for 2 weeks October 2008 and will be having friends staying. Rental over on a Saturday and planning for just the two of us to go to Venice. Any recommendation on how to travel to Venice and where to stay--willing to splurge a bit.

I'm assuming that you could get to a train station and take the train to Santa Lucia in Venice. However, since you said you might want to splurge a bit in Venice on accomodations, I'd be tempted to scale back the Venice hotel some since luxe hotels can be outrageous. I would then find someone in Montecatini with a boat for hire that would take you to Venice. The trip would be lovely and approaching Venice from the lagoon for the first time would be breathtaking.
