Maria’s place is absolutely stunning ! Combining traditional Venetian architecture with high spec modern decor . The apartment is equipped to a very high standard . We spent so much time just sitting on the step , sipping wine and watching the gondolas go by ! The apartment is in a perfect location , only 8 minutes walk from St Marks but it is in a really peaceful area . The Church of St John and Paul is a minute walk away . This church is stunning and the square it is in has lots of little bars and restaurants, all of which are really good value for money . Maria is a fabulous host , her communication is very prompt and she organised personal transfers to and from the airport for us . The checkin experience was very smooth and easy . A truly fabulous find !
