Barbara and Katy's place was just perfect for our three-night stay in Venice! It is an adorable bungalow, well-decorated and quite comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped and we made breakfasts and snacks and had all the kitchen items we needed. The location is on a quiet block of Venice, yet close to all of the action. A twenty-minute walk to the beach and within walking distance of some great restaurants. We especially loved Superba just around the corner and ate there more than once. Le Zinque, a cool French wine/tapas place, had a beautiful outdoor patio to while away the afternoon with some moules frites and French rosé. The shopping on Abbott Kinney was rewarding. Katy is an excellent host and couldn't have been more accommodating. Her communications were quick and clear and it was so nice to meet her in person once we arrived. She and her family have lived for several generations in Venice, so her recommendations are spot on. A lovely host with a great spot in Venice. We would love to stay here again on our next trip to Venice!
