Luca and his wife and family are wonderful people! Right off the bat, he gave us very clear and detailed directions for how to get into Venice, which really calmed our travel nerves down. He was a perfect host, and answered all of our questions (and even helped us get to the beach, when the waterbus service went on strike!).
The studio was the perfect size, and in a great location to get anywhere in Venice. It's really close to San Marco, but not close enough that you are bombarded with tourists. They gave us GREAT suggestions for places to eat and visit, and we LOVED them all!
Stay with these wonderful people! They're Venetians, born and raised, and they love their town, and they want others to love it too. So refreshing!
When I come back to Venice, I'm staying with them again! :)
