There are not adequate superlatives to describe this palatial apartment. My husband and I travel a lot and have rented places all around the world- and to be honest we thought this was a scam because it looked too good to be true.
Host: From the start, Giacomo’s communication was outstanding. He provided excellent, easy to follow instructions to get there from the airport, met us right on time for check in, and gave us great recommendations for our stay.
Apartment: The place itself is huge! It has a modern feel with classic accents including painted ceilings and hand crafted flooring. Super clean with well appointed fixtures and amenities (including beautiful Murano glass vases throughout). We felt like we were the first people to stay there.
The views from the apartment were SPECTACULAR and we were in awe being able to look out at the canal in several directions.
Location: Fantastic! We were happy to be out of the overcrowded tourist area of San Marco square, but only a few water taxi stops away or a short walk. The Ca ‘Doro stop is only a few minutes walk and even with luggage was very easy to access. The area surrounding the apartment was quaint with a lot of off the beaten path restaurants and stores. We had fantastic meals!
We could go on and on about this place. Honestly nothing negative to say other than we had to leave ;(. We’ll be back!
