The apartment was on the first floor and occupied a large and beautiful space in an historic Palazzo. It was superbly restored and presented and was set in an historic square which is a little away from the frenetic crowds at Piazza San Marco. The accomodation was located for easy access to all that Venice has to offer. Sylvia and Manuel were stunning hosts and could not have been more attentive to our needs. They made sure that the fridge was stocked when we arrived. Manuel and Sylvia met us at the water taxi drop off which is handily located to the property and they helped us take our baggage to the property. They settled us in and gave us great recommendations for restaurants and other activities. They were also available at any time to provide us with assistance. When we left they again assisted us with our luggage back to the water taxi pick up point.
This was our seventh visit to Venice. We normally stay in five star hotels and decided this time to try an apartment. It was the best time we have had in Venice thanks significantly to the brilliant accomodation and the kindness and attentiveness of our hosts.
This is definitely where we will stay in our subsequent visits to Venice.
