This home is a gem! The location simply couldn't be better, with San Marco and shopping a few minutes walk away, and Accademia Bridge and all that area offers just around the corner. The home itself is so tastefully decorated with a juxtaposed decor that mixes modern appliances and bathrooms with antique decorations. AND THE VIEW! We enjoyed our wine and coffee on the balcony as gondolas and water taxis went by on the grand canal. We felt like we were on a movie set!
Mariacaterina was incredibly hospitable and responsive as we planned our stay, with quick replies to inquiries and EASY directions to get to the home. As it was our first time in Venice, this was so helpful. Her beautiful mother Antonella greeted us at the door with a lovely American friend who was there to make sure that everything translated perfectly and that we had the best possible welcoming experience.
The apartment had surprisingly big bedrooms and plenty of closet space. Two modern bathrooms made it easy for for adults to have plenty of room. The living room also afforded plenty of space to relax and recap the day! The kitchen, while small, was just enough for us to chill our wine, make coffee in the mornings and store some food. If we wanted to cook a meal in the kitchen, we would have had plenty of utensils, pots and space to do so.
We want to thank Mariacaterina and Antonella for their hospitality. Case Zucchi is a special place!
