AMAZING HOSTS!! Our best airbnb experience so far!
Caterina and Pietro were so lovely and so helpful especially when we first arrived. They offered to arrange a boat pick up for us (however it unfortunately didn’t work out but that was out of their control), but Caterina came and met us outside a restaurant that was easy to find and brought us to her extremely beautiful apartment. She offered great tips and was always quick to reply if we had any questions.
*if you have heavy luggage, recommend taking the Vaperetto to Ca D’Or station (we had heavy luggage but we were okay walking from Piazzale Roma - about a 20 minute walk to where we met Caterina)
Condo:
SPECTACULAR! Beautiful views of the grand canal from a huge private terrace. Gorgeous views from every window onto the grand canal! Very comfortable bed, Netflix, bright bathroom!
Restaurant suggestions:
- Trattoria da Mamo (best pizza we had in Venice, but their seafood looked amazing too if you like that)
- Trattoria Bar Pontini (best pasta and their seafood also looked amazing)
- We Love Italy (takeaway pasta)
- Suso Gelateria
Activities:
- Murano/Burano/Torcello half day trip was outstanding — Burano is the most beautiful colourful little island in Italy!
- Evening gondola ride (after 7pm) — 100€ but so worth it!
- Doge’s Palace
We would love to come back to visit Caterina, our Italian Mom! Thank you so so so much!!!
