About this property
Canal View Apartment with Panoramic Roof-Top Terrace
The Altana is a bright, airy and centrally located 1 bedroom penthouse, found only few steps from St. Mark's Square, with panoramic roof-top terrace.
Being in a quiet residential Calle (small lane) far enough from the busy tourist itinerary nearby, it is absolutely quiet.
It measures about 100 square meters and it is composed of a luminous and very spacious loft-style living room with high ceilings and mezzanine level that leads to the roof-top terrace; a functional and well-equipped open space kitchen with 4 gas burners stove, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, oven, kettle, etc; a bright dining area with a glass table for up to 6 people; a spacious double bedroom with a large walk-in wardrobe; a modern bathroom with large shower cabin; a small laundry room.
The Altana apartment boasts a fantastic canal view from the many windows of living room and dining room. From the living room you can walk-up the architectural staircase to access a cosy mezzanine furnished with a library, an office desk, a comfortable couch for reading and most importantly that give access to the panoramic Altana (traditional wooden roof-top terrace).
The view from here is breath-taking: the panorama includes San Giorgio Island with its remarkable Palladian Church, St. Marks Basilica and Bell Tower, Basilica Santi San Giovanni e Paolo and many other Venice landmarks. The sunny Altana is furnished with a table and 4 chairs which is perfect for a relaxing breakfast or aperitif at sunset.
The amenities of this apartment includes independent heating system, air conditioning system, Wi-Fi connection, washing machine, TV, sound system, etc.
This house is full of light during all day long and has everything you need for an unforgettable holiday. It truly makes you feel at home away from home! This apartment is perfect for a couple that wishes plenty of living space, but it can comfortably host 4 people for short stays: there is a double sofa bed in the living room.
It is not recommended for families with small kids as there are various fragile items in the apartment (glasses and antiques) and the open space staircase is not suitable for children unless they are used to such stairs (please see the photographs of the stairs in the photo gallery).

Very good

Overall good location and view of canal. Communication was a bit slow from host. No mention or details of the number of steps to get to the apartment. The biggest concern was the overwhelming severe sewer smell in the foyer and entry way to the building along with many flies which all permeated up to the apartment. This was very nauseating and we did not notice this anywhere else we went in Venice. Warning to those renting, be sure this is fixed before you select this place.Also there were no basic staples like coffee to get you started which we have experienced in many other rental properties. Something complementary such as a water, soap, coffee or just a shampoo would have made it nicer.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Jun, 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed the location and the canal view.
We would like to clarify that the apartment is located on the third floor, as indicated in the listing details. As is common in many historic Venetian buildings, access requires using stairs.
Regarding the odor and flies in the building entrance, we are sorry to hear about your experience. This is not a condition inside the apartment itself, but we understand how unpleasant it must have been and appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We will investigate the matter with the building management to ensure it is addressed.
We also appreciate your comments regarding communication and welcome amenities. Your suggestions are valuable and will help us improve the experience for future guests.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your observations.

L'appartement est très bien placé, il est très spacieux pour deux personnes, et si vous n'avez pas le vertige, la petite terrasse sur le toit est un plus. La cuisine est bien équipée, et vous pouvez facilement manger à 6 ou 8 personnes. La salle de bain dispose d'une grande douche à l'italienne, et la literie est confortable. Nous avons apprécié le service de ménage en milieu de semaine, et les étages se montent facilement.
