Claudio was an absolutely superb host. Communicated very well with us both before and during our stay. The house was spotless. Much bigger than I had expected. Everything we needed was in the house. Claudio even brought us a bottle of wine for when we arrived and then another just before we left! He picked us up and dropped us to airport promptly. Our inbound flight arrived at 9am and as check in to the house wasn't until 2pm, Claudio drove us to a coffee shop, and explained to us all of the best sights and wrote them down on a map so we knew where to go. He then offered to drive us into Venice whilst we waited. Claudio really has a passion for Venice and it is clear to see. He was a wonderful wonderful host and I would thoroughly recommend anyone to stay at his property. Very pleased and we will certainly be returning!
