We've just returned from our European trip and most definitely, one of the highlights was staying at Eliana's beautiful home! The location is so close to everything, the house was spotless and the communication was quick and easy with Adriana as she speaks English very well (and met us at the ferry stop to walk us to our place). There was even a bottle of Prosecco and a card waiting for my husband as we were celebrating his 50th birthday in Venice! I knew I wanted a place with an outdoor space and this home has two. We made great use of the upper deck first thing in the morning for coffee, sunsets with wine before dinner out and late at night with a glass of Prosecco when the city quiets down and the view of the dome and bridges are just beautiful! We loved our stay here and hope that it will be available the next time we travel to Venice as it's just perfect! Some tips we learned was to drop a pin on your phone map when you get to the unit as you'll most likely need to use your map to return (Venice streets can be confusing). Pack light. We had backpacks but saw so many people struggling with large, heavy bags trying to get over bridges and this unit has a few stairs. Explore this city at night; it's just magical without all the day crowds! And finally, use the wooden water taxis. Prices are similar to the larger ferry but without the crowds and multiple stops.
