Perfection! I communicated with Cristina before we left for our trip and she reserved a private water taxi to pick us up at the airport (definitely the way to go!) One of our group's flight was late and I was able to communicate this with Sandra from the airport. Upon arrival to pier we were met by Cristina's mother and daughter who even helped us with bags while showing up points of interest on the way to the apartment. Apartment if just like pictures, plenty of room for 4 women. The first bathroom has a very small shower compared to American standards, we all used the en suite bathroom with a bigger shower to wash our hair. The location is amazing. Walking distance to the Rialto Bridge and several Vaparetto stops. We bought a 7 day pass for the Vaparetto prior to arrival, Cristina shared the link with us to buy it. There is a grocery store, restaurant and bank very close to the apartment. Cristina's daughter went over the map with us and shared her favorite restaurants for pizza, gelato and a good meal. The apartment and the host were more than I could have asked for. I would recommend this apartment to anyone travelling to Venice!
