Set in a quieter part of magical Venice, and within easy reach of major attractions, this apt. was a home away from home. It was a very hot afternoon when we arrived, and they had the AC running for us, now that's thoughtful! As were the welcome wine and a box of the local biscotti waiting for us on the table. The apt. was spotlessly clean with a well equipped kitchen and spacious bathroom, a bedroom facing the tranquil canal where you can sit by the door and watch boats pass by, and a bonus patio full of fruit trees. Loredana and her family went above and beyond their duties to make our stay enjoyable, from greeting us at the boat stop and providing useful tips, to printing our opera tickets and even coming down late in the evening to check that the jellyfish stings we got were quite harmless (which they were and we just loved swimming in the Adriatic sea with its soft sand and warm water at Lido). We really enjoyed our time here, and will return at the first chance.
