A very well-appointed and kept home in the middle of Dorsoduro, this is a trivial walk from anywhere in the city, and mercifully far from the madding crowd.
The bedrooms are spacious and airy, and the living quarters have everything one could want to cook and share the fruits of the lagoon after pillaging the fish market in the Campo Santa Margarita, or having recovered from the bustle of Rialto. It was a particular treat to sit on the balcony in the evening with aperitivi watching the first swallows of the year swooping over the rooftops pink in the evening sun. It was also great fun to splash back having been caught just the wrong side of aqua alta - which is worth noting if booking at this time of year.
As a host, Michela's communication was very instructive, and her replies prompt and friendly. We were made to feel very welcome.
