Alice is a great host. She met us at the aqua bus stop (which is so easy to catch from the train station). We walked along gorgeous roads to her villa. It is over 1000 years old and gorgeous. It was a fabulous home for our 4 adults and 2 children. Alice had great communication and even negotiated a rate for us for a private water taxi to the airport. The kitchen was fully stocked with plenty of dishes. The bathrooms are truly gorgeous, and omg the master! The gondolas pass by right below in the canals. We would definitely stay with her again. It is also a great location, close to the grand canal and little shops, and grocery stores. Our favourite place in Italy by far!
