Love, love, love! Beautiful flat, easy walking distance to all the notable spots on the island, in the best quarter for shopping (and restaurants which aren't as touristy). Mimi greets you at the Rialto stop - taking the water bus from the airport is a breeze - escorts you to the flat and makes certain to point out street names and landmarks which will help orient you to best get around after you've settled in. She is delightful!
The flat is quite large, and is a great contrast to the tight streets of the island, making it the perfect retreat. There is a restaurant on the corner the bedroom is at, which many locals stay at late after close some nights, so bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. I also recommend packing light as the walk from Rialto to the flat feels a bit long after a flight, and goes over a couple of canals with several steps.
We stayed 3 nights which was perfect for us to see everything we were wanting to, and also have time to do a bit of shopping and just relax a bit.
During booking Martina was very accommodating, thorough, responsive, and detailed in coordinating everything for arrival. My husband and I would most certainly stay at Martinas' place again as she and Mimi are wonderful hosts! Very communicative, making sure you have a 5 star experience.
