If you are looking for a magical place to stay in Venice, Casa Manina sul Ponte is the perfect choice. It was a great home base for walking to all the sights but one of our favorite things to do was to sit in the living room watching the gondolas go by. It is located in a charming neighborhood, conveniently close to a little square with grocery store, restaurant and bakery/cafe. Llaria was so responsive to all questions and requests for information, even months in advance (very helpful for pre-planners like me 😄). She offered suggestions and made arrangements for transfer from the airport and a private guided boat tour along the Grand Canal. Both the Regatta Storico and Venice Film Festival were going on during our stay, and Llaria provided us with all the information we needed to enjoy both of these events. Would stay here again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend to anyone going to Venice.
