We stayed in Graziana e Damiano’s home for two nights. When we arrived, we were greeted by their friend Marcello who met us at the water boat, walked us to the apartment and talked us through everything that we needed to know. The home is in a beautiful setting: out of the hustle and bustle of the main tourist areas, but within easy walking distance (5 minutes) of some great restaurants and bars and 10 - 15 minutes walk from St Marco’s square. We were able to wander and get lost down plenty of gorgeous back streets without bumping into hoardes of tourists, which suits us perfectly. The home is also a one minute walk from a lovely park and the water front, a great place to sit and relax amongst the trees. The property is very clean and well stocked, including with the all important coffee. The hosts were very quick in their communications and the pre-information, explaining how to get there was clear and comprehensive. We loved our stay and would certainly go back again.
