This is a truly beautiful, light filled apartment, exquisitely furnished with tasteful antique furniture, paintings, books and fittings. The icing on the cake is the delightful balcony over the canal that comfortably accommodates two. The balcony gets afternoon sun and we loved sitting there of an evening with a glass of wine watching the passing gondolas. The apartment was very clean and comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped and well stocked with basic condiments. We (4 adults) spent three weeks in the apartment and loved the central location with close proximity to the Vaporetto, historical sites and excellent nearby shops and restaurants. The nearby supermarket has a selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, fresh meat, cheeses, wine, freshly baked breads and a serviced delicatessen - we often called in on our way home and ended our days with artisan pastas, crispy salads, crusty breads and delicious Italian wines in the comfort of the apartment overlooking the canal. Susanna, Carlo's cousin who manages the apartment for him, is a delightful host and a font of knowledge - she met us at the Vaporetto upon our arrival and was available throughout our stay - nothing was a trouble for her. I highly recommended this apartment for anyone wanting to experience true Venetian ambience and lifestyle. We will be back!
