Beyond expectations! Every window offers spectacular view of canal and sounds of Venice while we relaxed in the expanse and luxury of this palace. Prompt and helpful assistance from host, immaculate and state-of-the-art furniture/appliances/AC/heat, steamy hot water and strong pressure, no noise from surrounding apartment dwellers. Immediate access to busy walkway through Venice, but set back enough to provide peace and calm. We were there during high water and had a blast. Don’t hesitate. This is the place to rent.
