Our family loved staying in this old style Venetian house in an absolutely wonderful location. Having a private courtyard felt incredibly luxurious and provided respite from the busy streets. The house was set apart from any tourist areas and was very convenient to walk to every neighborhood in the city. Cristina was the ultimate hostess, providing detailed information and recommendations on her lifelong favorite spots (like only a true Venetian could do). Thank you, Cristina! We highly recommend staying here.

Our vacation was okay, but the boats were on strike the one full day we had in Venice. We were able to take a taxi to Murano, though.
Très bon accueil. Équipé selon nos attentes. Propre et près de tout.

Nice place, some issues
Good: location, quiet neighborhood, everything within a mile; private little courtyard; big bathroom, two sinks and a bidet
So-so: insufficient basic supplies (just two towels for 5 nights; had to buy TP, paper towels, dish soap); wobbly table & cheap plastic chairs in the courtyard; noisy upstairs neighbors
Not so good: No shower curtain, water sprays everywhere when trying to shower in tub; kitchen and dining room not well lit, very dark; bed - two single mattresses don't stay together

About the host
Hosted by Federico
We are a Venetian couple who for several years have loved meeting people from all over the world and making Venice and its most beautiful and characteristic aspects known. If you want we would like to spend some time with you to tell you about the city and maybe give you some advice on things to see, the most hidden places and maybe some nice restaurants where you can taste the traditional Venetian cuisine.
Why they chose this property
This apartment is perfect for people looking for privacy, independence, and at the same time the convenience of having an outdoor space where they can spend pleasant evenings. The location is perfect for reaching all attractions of Venice and the many islands of the lagoon. Not to be overlooked is the proximity to Campo Santa Margherita, a square with several very lively and characteristic places.
