Marc's communication was prompt, courteous and faultless. His father, Michel, met us from the Water Taxi that Marc had arranged on our behalf. Fresh fruit, bread, milk and even cold beer and prosecco awaited us, the facilities were explained which include air conditioning, dishwasher and washing machine, three TV's (which we didn't use) and sound system, in fact everything one needs.
The area is a haven from the crowds and we enjoyed a more Venetian experience than our previous trip. A 'Billa' supermarket is close and has a great selection including champagne which was needed as my son proposed to his girlfriend during our stay!
We enjoyed dinner twice at '40 Ladroni' (literally downstairs) where the staff made us very welcome, drinks at 'Al Timon' (over the bridge, down the alley, turn left) - inexpensive and popular.
Our party of five had a memorable, comfortable stay and I recommend Marc and his apartment especially for a family group as we were able to relax together as well as enjoy our own space.
This was a great location, close enough to walk to and from, yet far enough for peace and quiet, you will enjoy Venice from here!
