If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! My husband and I cannot express enough how wonderful D & V are and how great their apartment on the canal is! Communication was top notch! Their suggestions for food and drink were spot on. The apartment was spacious and was stocked with all necessities needed for a more than comfortable stay. The views from the apartment were phenominal - we never tired of looking out the windows. Location was excellent - close to so many new bugs, yet off the beaten path and not overrun with tourists and quiet at night. If anyone is trying to find the perfect Venice vacation spot - this is it!!
