Marco and Donatella are great hosts and the stay in their apartment was a wonderful experience for several reasons - great hospitality, prompt communication, functional and beautiful apartment at a great location. Even before the trip started Donna shared good information on important places to visit in the city and advised on to make advance bookings. All through out our stay Donna and Marco checked in with us several times. Marco met us up on arrival and gave a detailed explanation of how to navigate Venice (water taxi) and recommended a few good restaurants. Donna was kind enough to offer to find reservations for us (Reservations at good Venetian restaurants are highly recommended). The house is modern, beautifully decorated and immaculately maintained. Multiple ACs came handy in the sweltering heat of Venice (we visited in late June). The apartment is also conveniently located on the main ferry line (line #1) and close to all the major attractions of Venice. Highly recommended!
