Right, this will not take long – of the many apartments we have rented in Venice, this is by far the best. We were looking for at least two beds, two baths as we were accompanied by my sister and her husband. Irene’s apartment could be summed up in one word – perfect. Why? Lots of space, comfy beds, clean, lovely outdoor seating area, plus every amenity and above all, (for us), close enough to the best area of Venice for good food and a late night drink but far enough away to be quiet and serene. Rush over to San Marco if you wish but for my money, the area around San Pantalon is the place to go and I can think of no better place to choose as a base than Irene’s super apartment.
