BEST. AIRBNB. EVER. In the days before our arrival in Venice, Views on Venice reached out to us about transportation from the airport to the airbnb. We decided to use a private water taxi which was definitely worth the extra money. When we arrived at the dock (which had a great view of the rialto bridge) our host was waiting for us and walked us to the airbnb which was maybe a 3-4 minute walk from the grand canal. There was another smaller canal a block from the apartment. The apartment was clean and modern, and very centrally located. We were able to walk to San Marco and the Academia in 10 minutes. Views on Venice had a great book with a bunch of suggestions and our host gave us a few of her favorite restaurants, 2 of which we ended up going to twice.
If you’re going to stay in an Airbnb in Venice, do it through Views on Venice. I’ve stayed in multiple airbnbs and this was by far the most accommodating. Filippo and his team are incredibly detail-oriented and professional; even more so than hotels I’ve stayed at in the past. We are absolutely pleased with our stay and have nothing but great things to tell about our stay. Thank you Views on Venice!
