We loved staying in this beautiful and seriously elegant apartment with our family group of 6. Two grandparents, two small girls and my wife and I.
We’ve stayed in lots of great Airbnbs but this is the most comfortable, elegant and stylish apartment I have ever experienced! Its absolutely lovely.
Its in a great part if Venice. The building is very well maintained and has an elegant lobby and grand Italian marble staircase leading up to the apartment. Its a fabulous way to be immersed in the grandeur and style of Venice with all the facilities you could need. I highly recommend it!
You can quite easily walk to it from the train station in about 15 mins but if you have luggage you do need to be capable of carrying it over two canal bridges (with steps) and wheeling them on the uneven cobblestones and up the several flights of broad stairs to access the apartment. This challenge is typical of Venice though and will be present nearly everywhere you stay. If you want help with your bags you can hire a porter with a trolly. coming from the bus/train station but be sure to negotiate a fair price and firmly agree in advance on the exact price as I’ve heard this can often be unclear and a cause of dispute.
We worked out the easiest way to get to the airport from the apartment was by taking the airport water bus from the Guglie stop which was an easy 5 min walk and avoided any bridges - a picturesque and super fun way to get to an airport and much easier than the way we arrived.
