Ciao! My family of four (two small children) just returned from our 3 night stay in Venice. We could not have been happier with our choice to stay in this Air Bnb, it made the trip so much easier and relaxing in every way!!
Set back in a community away from the main tourist area, we still had an easy walk to all parts of the island, and were just steps away from amazing restaurants. It was only a 10 minute walk to the ferry landing that takes you to Murano and Burano as well.
Pros:
1. Venice can be HOT and muggy, and coming back to the COLD AC every day was amazing.
2. Communication was fast and efficient (And in English for our sake!). Our host met us on the main street and personally walked us to the apartment, showing us the best stops for supplies, groceries, and meals.
3. They were VERY flexible with our check in/check out time, and graciously worked around our flight schedule as much as they could to accommodate our luggage.
4. The apartment was IMMACULATE. We were the first guests to stay at this new property, and it had everything we needed from kitchen appliances, to plenty of hot water, and even some chilled Prosecco waiting for us in the fridge.
5. Views: This property is situated on a canal, so we were able to lay in bed and watch the boats drive by, and wave to others from our kitchen window, situated directly on the water.
It's not huge, but it was plenty of room for our family, and could easily accommodate a 5th person as well.
You wont regret staying in this clean, comfortable, hidden gem in Venice!!
