The house is an apartment in the heart of the historic center of Venice, owned by my family for many years. It is rented when my family does not use it, to recover the high management costs. Located in a historic building, it has large windows overlooking typical views of Venice, 5 minutes from Piazza S. Marco but away from the noise and the crowd of tourists. Very high ceilings, according to the building tradition of the 18th century Venice, an excellent base for visiting the city on foot, without the need to take public transport. If you want, Emanuela can book a boat tour (a navy from 15 mt with sailor and guide on board), it cost 20 euro/person. The tour (6 hours) cames to Murano, Burano, Torcello (1,5 hour in every isle) with visiting a glass factory in Murano. The tour start at 11 in the morning and finish near S. Marco square . To book, write to Emanuela. Payment: 5 euros/person to confirm (when you’ll arrive in the apartment) and the rest to the desk, before the tour start. Show the voucer to the desk

The apartment was beautiful, clean, and had a lovely, fully stocked kitchen. The host was kind and very helpful. He met us at the vaporetto to show us around and take us to the apartment. We were very close to many attractions. I would definitely recommend a stay here.
This year was our first time using VRBO. We were hopeful that it would live up to its reputation. Well, it did. We found three different properties in three cities in Italy. They were Venice, Florence and Rome. Our favorite and the most accurately portrayed was in Venice. The other two were lacking some information that would have been useful but were still excellent stays.I recommend that skeptics give VRBO a try.
We had a very enjoyable stay at Grandiben Palace House. The property was clean and well stocked. Our Host Emanuela was friendly and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring the city and there are many excellent restaurants close. I would highly recommend this property.
We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this apartment. It is clean, specious, centrally located and has everything you need. Our hosts were very attentive and friendly. Highly recommended!
Nice apartment a bit tucked away from the busy area where ferries and boats come in. Our host kindly met us at the dock and showed us to the apartment. We appreciated the laundry facilities and being able to leave our suitcases securely behind after the 10 AM check out.
This beautiful Palazzo was attractively updated yet preserved old world charm. The neighborhood was quiet, yet very close to many scenic locations desirable locations.
We enjoyed our stay in Venice. This apartment is in a great location. Just about everything is close by and are easily walkable. Very clean, spacious and well stocked with everything we need.
The flat was spacious and very clean. Emanuela greeted us warmly and was very helpful. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great, with plentiful hot water. Good washing-machine and dryer. The kitchen was well-equipped, but we would have appreciated better/stronger lighting. Perfect location for us. Very quiet at night. We would stay here again.
We stayed at this property during our Venice visit. The house was close to all the tourist spots, easy to walk to St. Mark square and museums, yet away from the hustle near the port. We liked the cleanliness also. The host was super helpful, they came to get us from the boat ride on a rainy day! We totally enjoyed our stay here.
Highly recommend, in a quiet area away from the hustle and bustle of the main areas, but close enough for a quick walk to those areas as well. Very unique building as well. Well worth it.
Emanuella the host was very polite and quick to respond to our requests. She waited for us when we arrived in Venice and walked us to her beautiful spacious condo. The condo did not miss a thing. It had everything we needed from laundry facilities to wine glasses and wine bottle opener. We really enjoyed our stay! We would definitely go back.

Thank you. I'm happy if you'll come back in my apartment.
The property was perfect for us - 2 couples (4 adults). The host was very friendly and helpful and met us on arrival. The location was perfect - short walk to the tourist spots but just out of the way enough to stay out of the tourist mess if you wanted. Many shops, cafes and restaurants just around the corner. Clean, comfortable and would definitely stay there again.
Amazing place minutes away from the heart of Venice
Great apartment with excellent security. The location is a quick walk to the heart of Venice and easy access to everything we needed. Angelo and Emanuela were great communicators who welcomed us and provided great recommendations and help with how to best navigate the city. Would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in Venice.
Angelo met us at the Arsenale boat stop and provided a very thorough check in and local recommendations. Apartment was spacious and clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. We walked or to the boat all over Venice. Host communication was excellent and we would definitely stay here again!
Excellent. Manager was very helpful. Gave recommendations for grocery, restaurants, etc

good location
the apartment was as seen on VRBO. clean, comfortable. close to everything. just hard to find as you have to go down an alley, which is the norm for Venice. would stay there again.
Centrally located to what we wanted to see. Very clean! Two bedroom, two bath.
Washer and dryer.
The host waited for us where we docked and escorted us to the apartment.
We’d stay here again.
The property was very spacious and had everything we would want. The location is perfect; tucked away down and alley from the main water front in Venice. A short walk to all the main attractions, shopping, and restaurants. Both Angelo and Emamuela were very helpful and responsive to any questions or issues. They recommended a boat tour, met us at the boat stop after we arrived and made the visit a wonderful experience!
