A beautiful authentic Venetian apartment. This property has wonderful views from all windows - the bedroom and lounge overlook the canal, the Santa Maria cathedral can be seen from the terrace and kitchen. The property is decorated in a traditional style, with old fashioned paintings and furnishing. It has character.
The location is near enough to the action (you can walk everywhere) but quiet enough to get a good night’s sleep. There is also air conditioning, which was greatly needed in the height of summer.
The owner and her son were amazing. They communicated frequently, and even came back to unlock the apartment for us to retrieve something we’d forgotten (our child’s Venetian mask!) They were really kind and friendly, nothing was too much trouble.
The only slight downside for us - the second room is up some stairs through a communal corridor, which we didn’t realise. We couldn’t let our 5 and 7 year-old sleep in there on their own. They slept on the sofas instead - which was fine for us. Regardless of this, we’d still 100% stay there again, we loved it.
