We stayed at Il Giglio Di Vida for out first wedding anniversary trip to Venice.
It is perfectly centrally positioned for touring the whole of island. It is right on one of the canals and you can sit in a window and watch the Gondolas go by. Absorbing the atmosphere. Accademia bridge was about a 10 minute walk as was Rialto and St Marks Square. There are lots of bars and restaurants with in easy distance.
The bedroom was a mezzanine up a steep little staircase, which was great fun. Bed was very comfortable and the apartment was warm. The kitchen was a good size, and had all necessary amenities. Nice size shower room.
The only negatives would be the sound proofing wasn’t the best and you could hear the neighbours above… not a criticism as its an old building. Most mornings there were deliveries made from the canal, but it just adds to the atmosphere of Venice.
One of the many churches rings it’s bells every morning at 7.30am, but again all part of this small, beautiful place.
I would highly recommend this accommodation for its central location and Italian character.
Thank you Roberto for all of the information, the advice when the tide was going to be higher than normal. You have a lovely apartment, it was a struggle leaving.
