Venus takes 243 days to spin on its axis relative to the background stars, while it takes 224.7 days to orbit the sun.

Although its spin on its axis is longer that its orbital period, an apparent or solar day is 116.75 days, since it spins in the other direction to Earth and most other planets.
The length of the solar day is about 117 days. Thus a Venusian year is less than 2 Venus days long!

Good, an answer that mentions the solar day. Remember though there

is also the sidereal day which is about 243 days.
