This stay was the highlight of our 2.5 weeks staying across Italy. Our 10-year old says her favorite memory of our entire trip is sitting in the big windows looking over the Grand Canal and drawing in her sketch pad (despite seeing everything from the Colosseum to the leaning tower of Pisa to the hills of Tuscany to works by Da Vinci at Uffizi…). It was a magical stay!
The apartment is very, very spacious - plenty of room for our crew of 3 adults and 2 children. The view is magnificent, and for the first time on our trip we were able to relax and exhale. The location was very good, and the kitchen is updated and has everything you need to cook at home or just reheat leftovers - fully equipped. There was plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, soap so that you don’t have to spend time finding a grocery and stocking up. The air conditioning works well! We were thankful for this place for a cool, spacious respite at the end of a long day. We would absolutely stay here again.
One tip - when you arrive, especially if you have lots of luggage, the best option is to take the take the water taxi to San Marcuola and walk from there. There are two roads with the same name - so make this note and make sure to map to Campo della Maddelena. The correct street is a couple of blocks behind that little plaza.
