This was my 3rd AirBnB stay in Venice + my favorite by far. I stayed a week, and found The Garden Retreat private, quiet and beautifully decorated. I enjoyed the sweet garden and private patio. It's super cozy, with warm blankets, comfortable bedding, and space heater (necessary in the rare cold). I loved watching an unusually intense lightning storm through the French doors + the wealth of eclectic art. Chris and Azza are exceptional hosts; very responsive + conscientious about keeping the studio in great shape. It was super clean, stylish and well stocked, plus, the bed was exceptionally comfortable. Convenient location to walk through vibrant neighborhoods and down to the beach. Highly recommended!
