Destination guide
Island hopping through the city of Venice
Made up of a series of islands connected by canals and bridges, Venice is a unique city that's full of grand Italian architecture. Booking a Venice holiday rental allows you to explore the city, getting around by water taxi or gondola, and appreciating the opulent museums and beautifully preserved historic buildings. Food is a huge part of Venetian life, and you can splash out in a traditional restaurant with decadent surroundings or stop at a rustic osteria for pasta with freshly-caught seafood. Book tickets to an opera or Baroque concert for an authentic Venetian experience, with vast theatres and music venues hosting lavish productions.
History
Heritage sites near holiday rentals in Venice
Venice is filled with unique historic sites to delight the history buff. Holiday homes can be found near fascinating places like Doge’s Palace, a Gothic palace with exhibitions in the duke’s rooms and prison and armoury tours, and the Bridge of Sighs, an arched bridge named for the sighs of the prisoners crossing it from the palace. There’s also St. Mark’s Campanile, a landmark 16th-century square cathedral tower with a dramatic spire and belfry.
Things to do
Explore Venice the classic way – by gondola
Venice is defined by its canals, so the classic way to tour is in the back of a gondola. If you're staying in a Venice holiday rental, gliding along the water is an excellent way to get around, with many gondoliers offering guided tours or even serenading their passengers. You can book short gondola tours of around 30 minutes to see the Grand Canal, giving you a new perspective on sights such as the Rialto Bridge. Alternatively, book a half-day tour that will take you to spots such as the Doge's Palace, letting you see the best of the city in a day.
Activities
Discover Venice's iconic Piazza San Marco
Most first-time visitors head for Piazza San Marco on their first day, which is an excellent spot to start exploring the city. The gilded St Mark's Basilica with its dramatic Gothic architecture is at the heart of the square, and when you step inside you'll see golden domes covered in frescoes, with every inch seemingly taken up with intricate decorations. On the opposite side of the square is Museo Correr, a palatial art gallery full of paintings and statues set among opulent surroundings. Once you've finished exploring, the square is full of cafes with pavement tables, so you can sip an espresso and enjoy the sights.
Weather
Climate during your stay in holiday homes in Venice
Venice's proximity to so much water means that the weather can get humid, especially during the summer months. Often reaching the high 20s, July and August are peak times for Venice holiday rentals, which means the city is busy, and there is a risk of thunderstorms on the hottest days. September to November are milder and more comfortable in terms of weather, and spring is also a pleasant time to explore the city. Winter is the cheapest time to visit, and although it can be foggy and rainy, the museums and indoor attractions are nice and quiet.
Natural features
Relax on the Venice Lido
Visiting Venice can be a full-on experience, but just a short vaparetto ride from the city is Venice Lido, a stylish coastal area swathed with sandy beaches. Stretching along the calm waters of the Adriatic, there are several miles of coastline which range from the busy and lively, to quiet spots surrounded by trees. There are lots of bike rental stands, so you can zip along the promenade, enjoying the sea breeze and finding spots off the beaten track.
