Spent 3 nights at Blue on Venice in August 2013. Apartment is exactly as described! You have absolutely no reason to hesitate to rent this place. Still can't believe how big it is! We were met by the owners who showed us around and were very helpful. They have a list of recommended restaurants and shops that was very appreciated. Prior to that, Francesca had already given us a lot of useful hints to help us plan our stay and get the most of our few days in Venice. We felt just like home!!! The apartment is an easy walk to all the major "attractions" in Venice (Piazza San Marco for example) and very quiet at the same time. You can see the gondolas pass by sometimes. All in all the perfect choice for any family that want to experience Venice without being confined to a hotel room ... and at an excellent price considering it is much more comfortable than any hotel. Thank you again Francesca and we hope to rent your apartment again in the future!!!
