Beautiful house right in the heart of Burano. For us as a family of five with young kids it was the perfect balance of charm, amazing experience of arriving by boat and the beautiful streets, but much calmer and laid back than Venice.
We took a boat tour over to Venice which was very easy but we got to come back to the open main street of Burano and eat an amazing fish grill at Trattoria da Romana, whilst the kids explored the little passageways surrounding which we wouldn’t have been able to do of staying in Venice. So peaceful, calm and tranquil.
Filippo’s father met us off the ferry and was so lovely and insightful, telling us all about the island whilst we walked to the house and was so helpful and gracious. It was lovely to see how proud he was of his island and all the generations of it that have come before. We really felt like we were living a very authentic slice of Burano for a couple of nights.
Other plus side was that despite the massive heatwave the house was prefectly cool and had air conditioning so our night were very comfortable. But my husband and I really enjoyed the roof top terrace where we could sit out and relax but still keep an ear out for the kids.
Would recommend this place to anyone🥰
