It was simply amazing. We wanted to take your place with us for the rest of our vacation! Everything was perfect. I could find any cons to put here, so let me list what impressed me the most:
- location: we arrived by car. Lara had an underground parking lot ready for us. There’s a bus station on the same block of the apartment and plenty of coffe shops for a nice breakfast before going to Venice. Buy a 24 hour public transport card (Lara will tell you the best and closer places to buy) and that works for the bus and all vaporettos as well - the boats that transport people in Venice. An attraction in itself.
- luxury: the apartment is super modern and built with top materials. Is fully furnished and equipped with everything you need.
- space: the apartment is large. We had a master bedroom for us, a room to my 15 yr old daughter and another and another room with 2 beds for our 7 yr old and 11 yr old boys. There’s a decent sized kitchen and an amazing dinner room with TV and PlayStation and this amazing glass chandelier made in Murano.
- cleanliness: everything smells amazing. Plenty of very comfy towels for the whole family. The entire apartment is really sparky clean.
- hot shower: that’s usually a problem in Airbnb’s in Italy for families - if you have a big family like mine you need to have 2 minute showers, otherwise hot water will exhaust. Not at Lara’s place. There was 2 beautiful bathrooms with spacious showers, with A LOT OF WATER, as hot as you can take. That’s a must for a day after walking all over Venice.
- hospitality: Lara met us on our late arrival, spent 30 minutes going over all the house features, nearby restaurants, public transportation and etc. She took me for a car ride to show me where to buy transport tickets, local supermarkets, and etc. She speaks perfect English. She extended our checkout so we wouldn’t feel pressured to pack our bags, even though she had other guests arriving in the afternoon. The most gentile host.
If you are a family coming to Venice, you will love this apartment and will make your Venice experience unforgettable.
