We were met at the steps of the canal by our host, Paolo, and shown into the house. It is fair to say that the photos do not do it justice. The house is even nicer than it looks. Stylishly decorated, very comfortable, absolutely spotless and situated right on a beautiful canal. It was the perfect place to come back to each evening after hours of walking. Paolo had kindly left some refreshments. He also took his time to show us the local square, coffee shop, bakery, gelato store, bar and restaurants. He also, showed us the nearest stops for the water bus (there are two very close to the house). He is the perfect host!

I would highly recommend staying at this home, it is very special. The local area is charming and away from the hustle and bustle of more touristy areas. There are some great restaurants nearby and all the major attractions are within walking distance. The proximity to the main canal makes accessing anywhere in the city simple.

We had a very special four days in Venice, a lot of this is down to the wonderful Incantevole Venezia!
