A group of 5 friends and I were in town for Carnevale and Maria's home was the perfect choice. There is a lovely little square just a few steps from the loft with plenty of places for lunch and there was quite a bit going on. There are two small grocery stores nearby that we're super helpful. The place itself was perfect for my group, we had plenty of space and had a lovely time relaxing in between outings. Carlo recommend a wonderful seafood place for dinner and we were able to make reservations, one of my friends even said it was the best meal he has ever had in Italy. A water taxi stop is also pretty close making it super accessible.
