designer apartment in the heart of Venice

The apartment was clean, comfortable, spacious, and quiet. Our amazing host, Elena, was very welcoming. She met us at our boat from the airport, escorted us to the apartment, and took time to graciously and patiently answer our many many questions about getting settled in Venice. She really made us feel at home. The location felt perfect: it's a convenient walk along the waterfront to the bustle of Piazza San Marco but far enough away from the tourist center that it felt like a respite from the crowds. This is primarily a residential neighborhood. Within a very short walk there are many good cafes, restaurants, pharmacies, grocery stores, and an open-air market. A lovely park is right across the street. Via Garibaldi is a busy pedestrian thoroughfare, but inside the apartment street noise was not a problem. By 11 PM the street is very quiet. Staying in this neighborhood gave me a better feel for what it's like to be a Venetian and not merely a tourist in Venice. I would not hesitate to stay again in this excellent apartment in this charming neighborhood on a return trip to this delightful city.

Great property off the beaten path, but yet so close to everything and literally had at least a dozen restaurants plus 2 grocery markets and cafés all along the street. We literally walked downstairs from the property and had a cappuccino and croissant each morning at the café down below. So it offered a lot with the location, and it wasn’t in the central craziness of the rest of Venice. Elena met us at the water bus and escorted us to the property and gave us an overview. Highly recommend!

Elena was very nice and communicated with us wellin advance. She was very patient in answering our questions and offering insight about the area. Family friendly area, and very comfortable place, we would go back here again

We really liked the location of this property. It was close enough to walk to St. Marks Square but far out enough to be away from crowds. There were also a nice selection of restaurants and grocery stores in the area. Apartment was clean and spacious.

Amazing place and location- we’ve stayed several times and it’s always perfect. Hosts are kind and responsive. The place is always clean and cared for. Love it!

We loved the many restaurants and cafes nearby. It was nice to have Netflix when we came home from a long day of sight-seeing! . Elena was a very charming and cordial manager. Appliances, beds, baths, and kitchen equipment were all top-notch. I would love to stay here again for a longer visit.,

We really loved this apartment in Venice. The apartment was extremely clean, well maintained and the décor was lovely. Very spacious and the beds were great. Fantastic for a family of 4 with the 3 bedrooms and bathrooms. Air conditioning worked great. The location was fabulous. Lots of dining options right outside the door, grocery shops, very quiet at night and we barely heard the others who lived in the building. The water bus stop closest to the apartment was great and it was just 2 stops to the Venice Lido which was fantastic with the super hot weather to enjoy a day at the beach. Also easy to get to the islands from Murano and Burano from the closest water bus stop. A nice walk over to St.Mark's. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely apartment and super host, very close to the heart of Venice whilst being away from the hustle and bustle. Apartment was well equipped but would benefit from having an extra sofa space/chair in the lounge for the 6h person. Some noise in the front bedroom early mornings 7am as the bar below sets up for the day, but other rooms very quiet and all true to pictures.

Our stay in this apartment was very comfortable. It has 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths all in one floor! The host, Elena, was the best! She’s very helpful and friendly. She even helped us booked our water taxi home. Walking distance everywhere !

The Host was amazing as she met us at the dock and walked us to her wonderful home! The home was immaculate and clean. It was accommodating with three large bathrooms and three bedrooms. The location was spectacular with surrounding restaurants and markets. Only two minute walk from water taxi and 15 minutes to the Basilica! We will definitely stay again!
