This flat in Venice was GREAT!!! Everything was exactly as in the photos. The flat was clean and comfortable with plenty of room. There is a bit of a climb which we didn't mint and had Italian charm with all the comforts of home. The terrace was the best. Started out there with breakfast and ended the day there with wine. The location was perfect; within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. It was so nice to have the canal right out side our door.
Elisa was the perfect hostess. She was great at communicating with us throughout our vacation prep. She met us at the vaporetto stop and took us to the flat. She showed us around and made herself available if we needed anything. We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
So, what did we do ..... The Rialto bridge was a short walk away. What a grand design. There were millions of little shops everywhere selling everything from masks to leather handbags. The grocery store was very convenient right around the corner. Getting lost down the narrow streets was an adventure. We took a day and went to Venice Lido to sun bathe on the beach. It was glorious. On another day we visited Murano. They make the most beautiful things out of glass. We stopped into a few churches and visited Piazza San Marco. The food was amazing, although a bit pricey sometimes, and the drink of the day was "Spritz". DELICIOUS!!
Going to Venice was something we are happy to have been able to stroke off our bucket list. Seeing the women gather to catch up on gossip while their children played in the square, eating some of the best pizza and pasta ever and just enjoying a romantic week in a romantic city made this vacation a dream come true. Thank you Elisa for sharing your little piece of Venice with us.
