Well-located, well-equipped and extremely clean apartment in a less-touristy part of the city, offering a more authentic Venetian experience.
I and my daughter spent a wonderful week at Ca'Letizia and found it the perfect apartment to come home to after long days of sightseeing. It is located on a quieter canal, very convenient both for the train station (we arrived by train from Paris) and for airport connections. In fact, the vaporetto stop for Piazzale Roma was just a few paces from the front door, which meant that we were able to make our early morning flight home without any difficulties at all.
There are many good supermarkets in close proximity - we especially enjoyed going to the Spar which was located in an old Venetian theatre, so quite an unusual experience. Cannaregio restaurants are also better value than in other, more-touristy parts of Venice, and we ate very well throughout our stay (although we did do indulge in some of the classic Venetian experiences too, such as Florian's and Harry's Bar - just to tick them off the list!).
I did my university exchange in Venice during the '90s and it was really lovely being able to share the place with my teenage daughter for the first time.
Everything works brilliantly in the apartment - wifi in particular is seamless, and the air conditioning was very welcome after the hot and crowded streets, especially at night!
We didn''t meet the owners but the manager, Alessandro, met us at the vaporetto stop and showed us round. He was easily contactable for any issues at all, and helped us sort out our airport transfer on the way home. Very considerate and impressively unobtrusive.
Fantastic holiday and happy to recommend Ca'Letizia anytime!
