I took my daughter to stay at Ivanas retreat for Xmas. It could not have been a better choice. A beautiful apartment next to the Hilton hotel. On the 5th floor so the views across to venice are spectacular. Wanting to eat out and being vegetarians Ivana specifically ate out to check out a restaurant and booked a table for us. Guedecca is an island with just a 3 min water buss to the main island. Easy to reach. I highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Venice
