Grappa Paradise was a lovely place to stay while in Venezia! My husband's flight was delayed so we were later arriving than originally expected, but Luca was very accommodating and had no problem meeting us when we arrived.
We had a little bit of trouble locating it, but only a few minutes on Sant'Elena circling the block - haha! Then we found it!
Luca helped us get our luggage up the stairs (THANK YOU because I was so tired haha), showed us the place, told us some good restaurants to check in the main area, explained how to use everything, and was very friendly.
It was right at the 8PM mark when we got there, so most shops and restaurants had closed up - and we really didn't have the energy to go back toward the main part of town. Luckily, Luca pointed us in the direction of a small osteria on the next block over.
It was DELICIOUS!!! It was probably one of the best meals we had during our entire 12 days in Italy (visiting Venezia, Firenze, and Roma)! The name of the place was Osteria da Pampo and it's a small family-owned operation with great food at great prices! Try it out!
The apartment was clean, everything worked, it was quiet because it was out of the way of the hustle & bustle of the main part of the island -- it was about a 25-30 minute walk to St. Mark's Square, but we didn't mind because the scenery was so nice. I would definitely recommend this place to EVERYONE coming to Venezia! Excellent price, excellent location, perfect!
Thank you Luca for such a wonderful stay :)
