"A lasting monument to the genius of one man, this civilised city of classy squares and cafes is often neglected in favour of its illustrious neighbours. Time to put that right," says Tim Pozzi

Why Vicenza? Comments by Travel Travel UK.
Sandwiched between Venice and Verona, Vicenza has somehow slipped off the tourist circuit, yet the historic centre is a Unesco World Heritage Site, with peaceful squares and porticoed streets graced by life-sized statues and picturesque balconies designed by the great architect Palladio and his followers. It's a wealthy city, with plenty of art, good shopping a nd excellent restaurants. I could not have said it better myself!
Our non smoking home is a five minute walk to the Piazza dei Signori (the center of the city). It is centrally located just a few steps from the ancient walls and Roman ruins. I enjoy the short walk through the park to the train station, where Venice, Padova and Verona are just minutes away. No need for a car, but if you do have one, we have a covered locked garage.
Our luxurious apartment is on the second floor (elevator) with 3 bedrooms (two king size and one twin) The spacious living room is airy and full of light and the full kitchen will give you the comforts of home away from home. Nearby you will find stores full of locally produced gourmet foods. Buy your dinner to go or do it yourself. All our pots are in stainless steel and we do have some American appliances. Quality restaurants, and pizzeria's are just a short walk away. The main bathroom with tub shower, bidet, toilet and sink, opens to a balcony. The second bathroom, has stall shower, bidet, toilet, sink. We have books in English and Italian, and a piano.
I enjoy a cozy comfortable bed with smooth linens, so I hope you will as well.

Why the Owner Chose Vicenza
My husband and I where in the performing arts and Vicenza was a convenient location for us.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
My home is in such a wonderful location. It is close to everything that is necessary for a wonderful stay. The new Theater is a walk away, as is the town center and the various forms of transportation. I love Vicenza, because it offers a sense of tranquility and elegance at the same time. If we choose to go to Venice, the train offers a short ride and there we are in the magical world of the Doge's. Love it !!!
Owner's Map of Vicenza
This is our home away from home. Loving Italy and California make it difficult for us to spend all our time in either country. Opera, roses and labradors are difficult to raise in an apartment. We chose to be apart of the best of both worlds.
When we are in California, I miss my friends and relatives in Italy. We miss the food and the carefree lifestyle. BUT when in Italy, I miss roses, bees, and puppies.
Being apart of VRBO, has given us the opportunity to meet some lovely people and we delight in the fact that they have enjoyed their stay in our home.
