Matilda's home was extraordinarily gracious, fascinating, and comfortable! So solidly built, the floors felt like they wouldn't even squeak. We loved the well-appointed kitchen and espresso make, and the porch, where we could hear the silence of Venice as well as the church bells. The location was super convenient, it was a thrill to have the water taxi take us to our door, and the beds were comfortable. Great collection of National Geographics as well! Matilda herself was welcoming and helpful, as was the literature she left with suggestions on where to eat and what to do. highly, highly recommend this palazzo! Thank you Matilda!
Zakia and Marius really made our trip special. We so lucked out to be in their company! Zakia was so well informed and enthusiastic, hearing her was at times like sitting in a superb college lecture! She was easy going, warm, charming, and helpful if we ever asked for any detour or adjustment to plans. Marius was safe, cheerful, hard-working, and great company. We loved traveling with them, and will remember for years the way Zakia guided us through the great sites of Greece, raising her arms in delight and pointing out the features she loved and had studied so carefully. Brava and bravo!
