A Beautiful, Characteristically Venetian apartment right in the heart of Venice


2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, sleeps 4

It is our pleasure to make your stay as comfortable as possible. If you have any
special requests we will always be on hand to help you. We would be happy to make
reservations for any restaurant, theatre or tour you may be interested in during your
visit. We have many books in Italian or English if you wish to borrow them during
your stay. We can also supply your refrigerator and cabinets before you arrive, ex.
water, wine, prosecco, pasta etc. for a small extra cost. We can help you with
anything special, i.e. weddings, welcome baskets, and we can even meet you at the
airport or vaporetto stop when you arrive. We also have a traditional Venetian sail
boat that can be booked. The owner will take the guests on a tour of the lagoon and
canals of Venice and explain some of the fascinating history of this magical city.
