This apartment is beautiful, and is the only place I would stay if and when I return to Venice. The location is perfect, walking distance to all major attractions but out of the chaos of the centre of town. The balcony right on the grand canal is a rare and special treat which we enjoyed every morning and every evening. The hosts are wonderful, responsive and considerate. The apartment itself is tastefully decorated and was perfectly comfortable for a family of 4. We are grateful to have had such a wonderful start to our family trip to Italy.
