The palazzetto has a private garden and is located in a charming campiello with a fountain and a lively neighborhood cafe. It is 10 minutes from the Accademia Bridge. Two vaporetto stops are nearby. It is near the Church of San Nicolo' dei Mendicoli, one of the oldest in Venice, and near the venerable school of Architecture at Universita' Ca' Foscari. THIS IS A VIBRANT VENETIAN NEIGHBORHOOD, WHERE SAVVY TRAVELERS CAN IMMERSE THEMSELVES IN VENETIAN LIFE.
The palazzetto is completely restored with careful attention to traditional Venetian materials and architectural details. The third floor entrance features traditional Venetian tiles in Sienna red and cream with beautiful wood floors throughout the apartment. The beamed ceilings in this house make staying here an authentic Venetian experience. Selected pieces of my painting and photography collection are on display. An antique Venetian mirror hangs in the salotto.
Up 10 steps from the second floor, with its own private entrance, the third floor sleeps 2-4 people. It occupies the entire floor of the building providing a light and airy atmosphere with good cross ventilation. The Master bedroom has a Double bed OR two singles and features beautiful etched windows. It overlooks the private garden and is very quiet. The European style lavender mosaic bathroom has elegant appointments. The marble kitchen is in one corner of the Salon. This room with two day beds and a crystal dining table for 6, is spacious and has its own elegant gray bath across the private hall. You have a view out the double windows of the Riello and the local life that passes through it. A stay in this truly beautiful space pampers and enfolds you in the luxury of Venice.
The house manager will greet you and acquaint you with the neighborhood and residents so you feel at home right away.

The apartment is located in a quaint district away from the tourist areas where you can experience life like the locals. A grocery store, local restaurants, cafes and to-go pizza are all in walking distance. The apartment has everything you need to cook in and a large patio to eat outside. The public water taxi is close to the grocery to take you around if necessary. Getting lost is inevitable and so much fun exploring areas not on the map. Some of our favorite things we visited in Venice were St. Nicolo’s church located behind the flat that dates back to 700 AD and may be the oldest church in Venice. The bar at the top of the Hyatt has incredible 180 degree views of Venice and last, Dogge’s Palace in St. Marcos square was breathtaking! Drink lots of Prosecco and take in the region’s best food!

A great stay, most recommended!

After having a wonderful stay on the second floor of the building several years ago, when I made my return trip to Venice I wanted to give the third floor a try. My favorite aspects of this property is that it offers things other hotels/apartments in Venice do not. Off the beaten path, the apartment is in a quiet neighborhood of the city while still maintaining close proximity to some key Venice sights. Campo Santa Margarita, perhaps one of the most popular squares in the city, is five minutes away and is a great place to grab a bite to eat or a spritz. The apartment has a washer and a dryer, a generous book and music library, garden, and a small kitchen. It is immaculately clean, and the owner provides a plenty of towels and linens. A caveat to some travelers- the stairs to the apartment can be tricky to navigate if you are older or have any physical limitations. While smaller than the second floor, I highly recommend the third floor for its comfort, charm, and character!

My friend and I rented this apartment in late December of 2010, we loved it. Very clean, well equipped, bright, open, quiet and had everything we needed. The caretaker was very nice and showed us around the apartment. We particularly liked being a part of the neighborhood and even though we were only there 5 days we often greeted by the locals while we were coming and going. The grocery story is a quick/easy walk and has everything you need. There are several good places to eat just steps away. This is a great base location to explore and enjoy Venice. Recommendation – print aerial view maps of the neighborhood when you get the apartment directions. We arrived a night and this was big help in navigating.

We took this trip to Venice over Christmas to meet up with our son who is studying in nearby Slovenia. We spent 15 days in this wonderful 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment in the Dorsoduro neighborhood. It was away from the main attractions of Piazza San Marco, Ponte di Rialto and the Grand Canal and that was perfect! Literally within walking distance to everything, (including the aforementioned sites) it proved to be a perfect location! It was quiet in the mornings and evenings and that was great! Upon leaving the apartment, we were only 5 minutes away from Campo Santa Margherita where we could get everything we could possibly want (bread, vegetables, fruits, pizza, cafes, fish market, shopping, etc...) We were also just minutes away in the opposite direction from the Zattere which was wonderful for strolling, cafes, pictures and also very convenient to Billas Supermarket for foods and drinks to stock the apartment. Dealing with Barbara was nothing but pleasant from the very beginning. Immediate response upon initiating my inquiry and I really felt like she provided great service as we made arrangements to secure the apartment for our trip. The apartment itself is perfect for a wonderful stay in Venice. My teenage daughter enjoyed having her own space in the evenings when we returned back to our "home". The kitchen is great for some light meals and for coffee and breakfast in the mornings. While it was cold in Venice (especially for this Hawaii family), the apartment was quite warm and very comfortable for us. Truly a wonderful experience for our family who traveled so far from home. Highly recommended for your stay in Venice, you won't be disappointed - this is a great apartment! A great big Mahalo (thank you) Barbara, and we are already discussing our return to Venice perhaps for my daughter's high school graduation trip! Aloha!
