Grappa Paradise is a lovely apartment and had everything we needed. Communication was easy and we were even able to extend our stay at last minute without trouble. Luca was an excellent host and was on hand to help with anything that we needed. Located in Sant'Elena - about as far away from the regular Venetian tourist swarm as possible, the neighbourhood is a dream - big quiet streets with a few shops and restaurants close by. The apartment is a short walk away from The Giardini and Arsenale (perfect for Biennale visitors) and the bustling Via Garibaldi which will have everything else you could possibly need on it. It's also less than 10 minutes via Vaporetto to Lido which boasts some great restaurants, bars, beaches and one of the biggest Supermarkets in Venice. I would stay here again without hesitation.
