Silvia was wonderful - she picked us up at the waterbus stop and walked us to her beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood which felt like a real un-Disneyfied part of Venice. The apartment is on ground level but very quiet and private. It was a PERFECT place for us and our 2 small children with a market nearby and nice restaurants and bars/cafes. Short walk to San Marco and the Biennale. Getting there from the train station took a while but I HIGHLY recommend buying tickets for the waterbus online or via app beforehand so you don't have to wait on crazy lines at the station. The apartment was sparkling clean and she even had a high chair and bed rail for our baby and toddler! Amazing. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
