Beautiful, stylish apartment full of character with views of the canal. Paola was super helpful and met us on arrival at the water shuttle stop to show us to the apartment, before telling us all of her top tips and recommendations.
Location:
The apartment is in a smart part of Venice near the famous Piazza San Marco and surrounded by shops and bars. We actually preferred eating and drinking in the northern part of the city, which felt a little more rustic, but Venice is tiny and everything is very walkable, so the apartment was the perfect place to base ourselves.
Recommendations:
- La Palanca - amazing and inexpensive pasta right by the water on the island of Giudecca, required a short boat shuttle across the water but worth it.
- The 'Ghetto' region in the north is lovely, a bit quieter but lots of wine and Cicchetti bars
- Bar Caravellino - great bar in Venice, a few minutes from Paola's apartment. Cocktails and great music (takes recommendations!) - our girls group came here both nights and had so much fun.
Overall, would highly recommend this apartment! Thank you Paola for a great few days.
