In a flourishing area once known for its silk trade, moments to the house of legendary explorer Marco Polo, the Teatro Malibran and the Ponte dei Zogatoli (‘Bridge of Toys’) so named by Venetians in remembrance of the beloved toy shop that once stood to its side, each air-conditioned apartment offers a stylish base for 4 (or up to 12 when booked together) and are perfect for a group of friends or family who’d like to be close but have their own space.
Showcasing a harmonious blend of whitewashed beams, wooden floors and a palette of co-ordinated colours resulting in a relaxed and easy-going vibe, the fully air-conditioned** Ca’ Dei Musicanti apartments offer en suite bathrooms throughout along with Wi-Fi and a washing machine and comprise:
Private palazzetto entrance with communal stairs (shared with its 2 sister apartments) leading up to:
Ca’ Dei Musicanti 2 (2nd Floor – no lift)
Entrance into:
A warm and welcoming main sitting / dining room in a flax and jade-green colour scheme with a selection of wall prints, plenty of comfy seating, a dining table seating 4 and a well-equipped kitchenette/breakfast area at one end
2 attractive double bedrooms in matching jade green stripes, one with a double bed, the other with two singles, and both with en suite tiled bathrooms with shower
* Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay close to each other but in separate apartments? We offer 2 other units in this charming Venetian palazzetto (little palace): Ca Dei Musicanti 1 (on the 1st Floor), Ca Dei Musicanti 2 (on the 2nd Floor), and Ca Dei Musicanti 3 (on the 3rd Floor)
OUR COMMENT
A quietly elegant and cosy city-base for 4 in a vibrant part of Venice with all amenties and attractions very close to hand.
Splendidly situated at the meeting point of 3 Venetian sestieri (districts) – Castello, Cannaregio and San Marco – a quick sidestep off one of the city’s main arteries linking the Strada Nova/Sant’ Apostoli to San Bartolomeo/Rialto and within walking distance of all the iconic sights and attractions of St. Mark’s Square (via numerous hidden and not-so-hidden routes!) along with a host of Venetian gems, including the dainty jewel-box church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli and the house of Marco Polo (the latter situated just moments from your door).
Close to the Rialto food markets of San Polo), and to a variety of shops, bars and restaurants including the old favourites Osteria Al Portego and the semi-hidden and solidly traditional Osteria Il Milion.
Within a short stroll of the vaporetto (water bus) stop at Rialto for exploring the city, the ‘traghetto’ gondola ferries crossing the Grand Canal at Santa Sofia and the Riva Del Carbon, and to 2 well-stocked supermarkets (a Coop and a Despar) also found along the bustling Riva Del Carbon.

We organize arrivals between midnight and one o'clock with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.

Nicely furnished. Cool vibe. Just off a main street near Rialto. Very convenient to Rialto waterbus stop. Marco met us at waterbus stop and showed us to the place. Very helpful!

Ciao Amy! Thank you so much for writing in – we’re delighted you liked the apartment and it was a pleasure to be of service!
With all the best wishes of us all at the office and hope to see you again soon!
We really enjoyed our visit. This property is located right in the heart of the Venice action. We were greeted at the water taxi dock and shown to the property. We received a thorough tour of the apartment and could reach the managers with our questions at any time. Highly recommended for your visit to Venice. We loved it!

Thank you so much for writing in Barry, we’re delighted you liked Ca' Dei Musicanti 2 apartment and it was a pleasure to be of service!
My two retired friends and I stayed for 4 nights at the apartment. It is centrally located for visiting Venice, but far enough away from the Grand Canal to avoid street noises at night. There are some great restaurants within 5 minutes walk. The vaporetto and the Alilaguna to and from the airport is very convenient. It is a small apartment, but certainly adequate for our group.

Thank you so much for writing in Eileen. We're really delighted that you liked our Ca' Dei Musicanti! Hoping that we have the opportunity of welcoming you back to Venice again in the future.
This bright apartment has everything you need for a place to stay during your visit to Venice. The location is ideal and the apartment is very comfortable. The service of the staff at Views on Venice was superior as our flight was delayed and we arrived late. They were quick to arrange a private taxi and every other aspect was seamless.
The company was easy to talk to, they coordinated our transportation within Venice for us, and sent someone to pick us up at the taxi drop off point so we didn't have to try to find the apartment on our own. They answered questions quickly. The apartment had everything we needed and was central location. We will use the again next time we go to Venice or Florence.

disappointed
It would take very little to make this property great. Unfortunately, it was very dirty when we arrived. (Human hair and probably animal area everywhere including the bathrooms.) They sent 2 women to clean the evening of our second night who did a good job and were serious. We were grateful for the crew that was sent, but hhis put a damper on our stay. I manage a VRBO in Paris, and there is always at least salt and pepper and good olive oil, vinegar in the apart plus a bottle of wine. We have a Nespresso and there are always capsules. It costs very little and it was a disappointment that there was nothing. Nor were there dinner plates and everything was in plastic. We did not use or need the kitchen, but it would be a small thing to oversea to make the property inviting.

Dear Loui thank you for your feedback. Firstly, we would like to offer our sincere apologies for the aspects of your stay which didn't come up to our usual high standards. In fact we did have an issue due to the logistics with the cleaning staff. Of course this is our fault and I do hope you will accept our apologies. As you have seen Venice is a wonderful place but many tasks easy in other places here are more complicate, but we will certainly look into implementing your ideas. Hoping we have the opportunity of hosting you at one of our properties in the future, and sending best wishes.
Die wunderschöne Wohnung war die Grundlage für einen gelungenen Kurzurlaub zur Biennale.

We are delighted to hear that Ca’ Dei Musicanti was everything you hoped it would be! Do get in touch if you plan on visiting again as we’d be delighted to be of service!
Die Ankunft und auch die Abreise waren perfekt organisiert. Die Wohnung super gelegen, um Venedig auch am Abend zu erkunden. Die Fotos von der Wohnung haben nicht zu viel versprochen. Wir haben eine rundum schöne Zeit in Venedig verbracht.

About the host
Hosted by Views On Venice
Views on Venice was founded in the late 1990’s when the concept of short term apartment rentals was in its infancy and rarely considered an option by most visitors to the city. As a ‘thirty-something’ Venetian excited by the new business and communication opportunities offered by the internet, I decided to link up with a close childhood friend in creating a partnership which, at the time, was a novelty in Venice. The idea we had in mind was to approach the traditional management of my family’s apartments from an entirely different angle, while at the same time resisting the attentions of those wanting to transform my family's palazzo into a prestigious hotel. Our aim was to offer these apartments, as well as those of friends, for rental to an international clientele who’d take pleasure in the comfort, freedom and authenticity of ‘living at home as a Venetian’ rather than merely observing the city from the confines of an anonymous hotel room or suite.The common denominator then, as now, was to offer ‘something extra’ amidst an already extraordinary city - an added dimension which turns a ‘stay’ into an ‘experience’ and a 'dream' into 'reality'.
