The most wonderful time at this delightful cottage! We lived in Venice for 25 years and know it well. First and foremost, Todd was the most responsive host! A few little snafus, including cleanliness and Todd was immediately responsive and provided a solution. BRAVO! The house itself is just what we expected and we found it spacious for our family of 4. We loved the art, the beautiful rugs, relaxing fireplace, furnishings, high-end appliances, and outside garden. Venice was originally a bohemian paradise and we definitely felt we were ensconced in that vibe in a very high end way. The home could not be more central. The beach is a five minute walk and there are some of the hippest/best bars& restaurants within a stone's throw (Hama, Gjelina...). Rent bikes as the best way to soak in the area. The architecture of Venice is unparalleled and one must visit the walk streets and canals as well as all of the iconic places. Street parking was easy and safe. LOVED THIS PLACE AND WILL BE BACK!
