Our contact was Luka who navigated us to the apartment and gave us as much info as possible. The location is centrally located and walking distance to all the tourist sites. Mosquitos are in issue in Venice so come prepared with repellent. This was the second time in Venice for my wife and me so we were familiar with the territory. If you find a restaurant you like, stick with it. You can spend a lot of time looking for great food. We live in San Francisco so its the same story; there's a lot good food but great food is the exception.
