We loved staying in Giudecca and in Ornella/Alessias apartment. Allesia msg'd us and made us feel very excited about visiting Venice, even sending me a photo of the beautiful sunset! She met us off the boat and was so so helpful and made us feel so welcome. The apartment was fantastic and we had everything we needed (with the added touch of milk/orange juice etc for when we arrived) Alessia gave us so many helpful hints when we arrived and we bumped into her a few times during our stay and she was always happy to chat and help out.
Guidecca was a lovely place to stay and to get away from the hustle and bustle of Venice, but close enough to feel like we weren't missing out.
We have only been home 1 day and already want to go back!
