We have stayed in many beautiful Airbnb’s but Barbara’s place is by far the best! We (3 adults and 3 children aged 12,9 and 7) just returned from a four night stay at her apartment. The apartment is on a lively square with some great restaurants and bars, worlds apart from the touristy parts of the city, yet close enough to walk to St Mark’s Square and the Rialto Bridge. The entrance to the apartment is hidden away off a little alleyway. Once inside the apartment (on the first floor), you can do nothing but marvel at the beautiful and tasteful decorations, the clever layout and the thoughtful little touches left for your use and enjoyment. The three bedrooms (one twin and two doubles) are spacious and airy. The apartment is incredibly clean. Beds are very comfortable and the two bathrooms are fitted with the softest towels imaginable. You are left feeling as though you just checked into a 5 star boutique hotel. The kitchen is small but this is cleverly disguised by a wall mirror. Barbara was a kind, informative and attentive host. I can wholeheartedly recommend the apartment to anyone visiting Venice, except if you have little children with sticky fingers...the walls (except in the living room) and upholstery are white! Thank you, Barbara, for this memorable stay in your stunning apartment.
