Wow! That is what we said when we walked in! The photos do no justice !
This apartment is very well located in Canareggio . It is two canals away from the grand canal ( you can see it from the living room) . It is in between two water bus stops so it is very convenient.
You have the Coop super market 3 minutes away on the strada nuova where you can find many restaurants shops , pharmacies, convenience stores , banks , bakeries etc .
On the canal behind the palazzo you will find some wonderful restaurants to go to.
It is very quiet and non touristy when in the apartment especially in a city swarming with tourists at your doorstep.
Right from the time of the enquiry to the booking and after , Fabio our host was outstanding.
He patiently and graciously answered all my questions and requests.
He arranged a water taxi pick up for us from the station and greeted us at the palazzo .
The palazzo has many apartments .
It is accessed through a large door and then hall way .
We could then access the apartment on the 2nd floor by a large elevator.
Fabio took us on a tour of the apartment and showed us all the amenities .
The apartment is very chic and has frescoed ceilings and terrazzo floors .
It is beautifully furnished with modern and chic furniture .
The 2 bedrooms have very large king size beds and a single bed each .
Each room can sleep at least 3 persons.
The beds are extremely comfortable and one sleeps like a baby in them!
The rooms are enormous !
Each room has very generous wardrobe space with hangers and one safe .
There is also a console of drawers in each room.
Both rooms have very tall large windows.
One room has a very large en suite bathroom with 2 wash basins, a wc, bidet , walk in shower and bathtub .
This also has a window .
The second room has a bathroom in the hallway with a walk in shower , wc and bidet . This bathroom also has a small room with the washing machine .
The hallways are huge and very well
Lit .
The living room is very impressive with 2 large couches which can seat 6 comfortably. One can slink away and not want to move whilst enjoying the space and view .
There is a very large square dining table for 8.
Then there is a smaller family dining area for 6 and then the kitchen .
The kitchen is very modern and very well equipped with a microwave , dishwasher , nespresso machine with pods, all cutlery , Crockery and kitchen appliances.
The lighting ans air conditioning are very modern and each area can be controlled independently from each room or through a central console in the hallway .
The air-conditioning is fantastic and was a boon as the first few days were very hot .
This is indeed a jewel in Venice and a space where one can simply unwind in a gorgeous setting!
It is luxury at its best and few ultra luxury top hotels could rival this !
You do not want to leave !
Fabio our host was exceptional. He was always available on the phone for any query and nothing was impossible for him!
He was so kind and helpful in arranging to receive an important package by post and he went out of his way to ensure that the package was received.
He gave us some very good local tips and restaurant recommendations.
I will come back here again and again and this shall always be one of my best addresses anywhere !
