What a truly wonderful experience! Thanks very much Luca! The apartment was GORGEOUS, clean&very clearly labelled so we could understand where everything was&how to use everything. The apartment is a fascinating historical gem in Arsenale, about 10mins walk from San Marco square. Lilliana (the maid) was great, & was there when we arrived. She told us everything (in italian) we needed to know including some recommendations for shopping locally & to visit Murano - which we did! The apartment is situated amongst the locals so is a real authentic experience! Luca was a fantastic host, providing us well in advance with all the info we could possibly need, including a wealth of restaurant recommendations - you can tell he is a pro at hosting! We did try 2 of his restaurant suggestions - Al Timon & another one i forget. Al TImon does amazing meats, in particular steaks. I highly recommend this apartment and Luca to anyone visiting Venice. A gold star & 10/10 from me! I cant wait to come back!
