The location is fantastic with easy access to the vaporetto water bus system and the Rialto bridge. The local neighborhood has great restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. We enjoyed the Prosecco and snacks provided for us on the night of checkin. The view is amazing and we could sit for hours watching the boats go by. With the location directly on the water, there are mosquitoes as expected. We highly recommend using the plug in insect repellent devices provided to keep the space mosquito free! This villa is very unique and the host was extremely helpful with quick responses and tips for local restaurants and activities.
