Santa Maria Formosa Terrace R&R

Amazing location, everyone super helpful with organising transfers and activities. Would stay again.

The location is very good Unfortunately there were bed bugs in one bed that tortured one guest. The roof terasse is nice, but unfortunetly the light did not work, so it was of little use after 5 pm. The layout of the kitchen appliances seemed to be done by someone who hardly used a kitchen in their life. Makes cleaning dishes not easy being squezzed in a corner. In addition, it lacks a microwave. The hotwater in the shower comes in intervalls.

Very compact but clean and an outstanding location - short walk to major landmarks in Venice, tons of restaurants, supermarkets, and shopping within a 5-minute walk. The hosts were very responsive and helped arrange water taxi services from the airport and to the train station, and a representative from the host greeted us as we got off the water taxi to take us to the apartment and check us in.

The place is in the very beautiful and convenient location. But the apartment is tiny, with one of the beds (sofa bed) on the second level, right under the roof, without air conditioning (terribly hot) and with a very steep stairs. The shower is so small, that a medium size men can hardly use it, with some mold on the walls and leaking into the downstairs apartment (we had a neighbour’s visit after using it).

In a busy, active city, we came back to relax and regenerate. The layout works well, has a lot of character including modern upgrades. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is beautiful and the outdoor area is the cherry on top. We highly recommend staying here when visiting this amazing city.

We enjoyed our stay - the apartment is in the BEST location - easy walk to main attractions plus a bar two doors down for evening drinks. It is on level 2 with 4 flights of stairs so be warned if you have lots of luggage (like we did!). The balcony was great for evening dinner and drinks. We stayed in July and the one air-con unit is definitely not enough to cool down the apartment. I would stay again but not in summer. The communication from the host and Guido who met us for check in was amazing. All water taxis were organised quickly so it was stress free. Great stay!

The apartment was infested with bed bugs. We left the day after our arrival, stung everywhere. We were forced to find a hotel room for the remaining three days of the stay

The apartment was clean and had most everything you need for a short stay. The rooftop terrace was a great place for coffee or wine. The nearby square was beautiful and had a market, grocery store, bars , restaurants and coffee shops and even gondola station. Pietro patiently waited for out arrival and provided clear communication and instructions to get there. He also was extremely helpful in getting us a transfer to our ship at the last minute when we could not secure one.

We were very happy with our stay. This flat is extremely well-equipped and the host/manager was very communicative and set us up properly to use it. The location is excellent. We were very happy with our experience.

The flat which we booked was unfortunately not available due to some damage…. But we were offered a much bigger place with an awesome view and nearby the Marcus square. Thanks for the help and awesome stay!
