Just had a fantastic 3 night stay in Venice at Donato's beautiful apartment. The location really is great if you want to be near the Rialto as it is minutes from bars and restaurants, whilst feeling secluded and quiet.
The apartment itself is brilliant, plenty of space and modern kitchen and bathrooms (love the skylight in the main bathroom). We braved the January temperatures and had breakfast on the balcony most days as there's no excuse not to (except maybe rain).
There were just two of us but this would be perfect for families with children.
We were contacted via WhatsApp prior to our trip, and Martin tracked our flight and booked a water taxi to be waiting for us on arrival, then met us at the jetty. Great to be welcomed and shown around in person.
Thoroughly recommend.
