Luxury canal-side apartment in heart of Dorsoduro - Fully Inclusive Rates
Ca' Leonessa is a recently (2010) restored luxury apartment located in the heart of Venice. It is a short walk from the bus and railway stations. Due to its superb location all the sites of Venice are either within walking distance or a couple of stops on the vaporetto. In the furnishing of the apartment the prime consideration has been to create a comfortable and welcoming oasis for you after a busy days sight seeing in magical Venice.
The living room (which overlooks the canal and the Campo San Barnaba) features two Natuzzi sofa's (one double sofa bed) a Linn sound system and HD television with DVD/CD player.
Both bedrooms are bright and airy with comfortable beds and have plenty of hanging/storage space in the bespoke wardrobes. Bedroom 1 has a luxurious double bed with fine linens and traditional Venetian fabrics. Bedroom 2 has two single beds. Both bathrooms are fully tiled with power showers.
The kitchen has been hand built and features dining for 6.

We had a wonderful stay! The host and the property manager were so easy to work with and very helpful. The apartment was just as described and in a wonderful location. We would 100% stay here again.
We had a wonderful 2 night stay at this apartment.Perfect location for all the main sights of Venice. Close to lots of places to eat and great shopping.The apartment was clean and spacious and would definitely recommend staying here.
We really enjoyed our stay in Venice. The area was great with excellent restaurants and a small market, and pharmacy around the corner. The owner and property manager were very communicative.
Irene was so helpful from communicating prior to our arrival, check in, questions we had, and helping line up a water taxi for morning of our departure. Property is in quiet area, perfect location, short walk to most attractions. Great view from apt. Will definately stay there if we come back.
This apartment was wonderful! The location was amazing, and we appreciated how clean and safe we felt. We would highly recommend staying here. We would come back again!
Walking distance to bars, restaurants, and points of interests.We arrived later than expected and the host did a great job communicating how to proceed with checking in after 6pm. We loved our stay in Venice! Very nice apartment!
The apartment was nice and in a great location. Many locals lived in this part of town. The bar across the canal was a meeting point for many locals and tourists and always entertaining. Close by are fantastic places for gelato, bread, espresso, and food. The apartment was clean with a great shower. All in all it was a nice experience.
Lovely apartment, just by a canal and the “Fighting Bridge”in a close but quiet neighborhood. Good bars and restaurants are close and the apartment managers were helpful with tips and recommendations. Gondola stop just across the bridge.
Our group of 3 couples visited Venice for 2 nights and this rental was perfect for us. We love the location, which was walkable to everything and right next to the water. Also, it is close to lots of restaurants and shops and is lively at night. We would love to rent this place again next time we’re in Venice.
Exceeded our expectations! We stayed in five places in our two week stay in Italy and this was by far the best accommodation. Close to restaurants and shopping and the incredible view of the canal.
We loved staying at this location. Plenty of nearby restaurants and fun places to visit. The only negative is the noise across the canal from a popular nightspot. We realize it is out of the owners control. Overall, we loved the quaintness of the home with all the modern amenities.
This property was perfect for us. Easy to get to by water bus, just a short walk from the stop. Away from the crowds but easy to access all the shops. 2 couple staying each with own bathroom perfect. Restaurants just over a bridge and the local supermarket around the corner for breakfast foods, and a little bar a stones throw away. Would highly recommend.
This property is within meters of bars, bakery, restaurants, a small supermarket, a fruit barge and is within easy walk of both the Academia and Rialto bridges. The property itself is lovely with canal views and some lovely furnishings. Communication with both owner and local agent was always very responsive and accurate. Recommendec!
Location of apartment ideal for visiting the main tourist attractions and good mix of locals and tourists around.. Apartment equipped with everything required and of high quality. Outlook over the canal was really interesting and included the famous fruit and veg barge. Wonderful baker within yards and a useful supermarket really close plus an abundance of cafes nearby. Hope to return.
Quirky and comfortable apartment in a really great location. Close to restaurants and bars, but the quieter side of venice is not far away. Really enjoy our stay in this place!
We had a wonderful stay at this charming property in Venice. The neighborhood was absolutely beautiful—picturesque streets, a welcoming atmosphere, and easy access to everything we needed. There are restaurants and a grocery store very close by. The host was truly exceptional, offering helpful recommendations and ensuring our stay was as smooth as possible.The home itself was lovely, though we did notice a bit of dust in the corners and around the beds. It was a minor detail that didn’t take away from the overall experience, but a little extra attention to dusting would make it even better. That said, the warmth of the host and the fantastic location made our trip truly memorable. We would certainly consider staying here again!
Excellent place to stay. Great location. Very clean and close to all amenities (groceries, coffee shops, restsurants, water bus ststion, etc.) Irene was very available for all questions.
