About this property

Nati's House; Venice centre, in the lively district of Cannaregio, canal view

We rent our flat in Venice for short weekly stays all year round (preferably weekly stays but we can accept a minimum stay of three days). The flat is suitable for no more than two people. “Nati’s House” offers the comfort and the charm that could emphasize the value of your stay in this spectacular city of the world. Very well lighted, it faces with a balcony a marvellous typical Venetian canal, in a part of Venice, which still belongs to Venetians. We think this is a great value for the wise tourist. The double bed is equipped with a unique mattress (we have recently replaced the old bed following clients' suggestions). The flat is completely furnished, some pieces of furniture are antique and it is located at the floor above the ground floor, that is the 'second level' considering the USA meaning, Mind that in Italy and most of Europe 'first floor' indicates what in the USA is a 'second level'. So the apartment is safely far from humidity of the ground floors and it is easily reachable with only one flight of stairs. “Nati’s House” is waiting you just four minutes by the Alilaguna water bus stop (shuttle service from/to the airport).

Starting from 24 March 2025, guests will find a completely new bed (new net and new double mattress). We thanks the guests who pointed out in their reviews the necessity of this replacement.

We have an automatic door opening device for the check in. It works with a simple telephonic call: your phone has to be able to initiate a call to an Italian number while you are standing in front of the building door. There are no costs for this call: the opening system does not reply, just recognize the phone number of the caller). Other check in methods must be approved before the arrival.

Perfect place to feel part of Venice

The apartment was exactly as described in a peaceful, residential area, so you really felt you were experiencing the real Venice. Staying for 12 nights allowed us to explore and walk to all other areas of Venice. Our own little piece of Venetian paradise, and we would love to return as soon as possible. There is no air conditioning, which we chose not to have, so we could acclimatise, but staying in June was not as hot as it would be in August. Check-in was perfect, as was communication and advice. Wouldn't want to stay anywhere else when we return, if we could have rated our holiday as 10 stars, we would have. Thank you, Paolo, for all of your help and for letting us stay.

The perfect way to see Venice

We arrived on waterbus from the airport and it was a short walk to the appartment. It is a beautiful and relaxing space filled with very interesting art and overlooks the canal. But, it is so well placed! You are in the quieter part of Venice with lots of great restaurants around. You can then dip into the busier parts of Venice as and when you feel like it! Very cool!!

Great location!!! Everything a PLUS except the bed and fan.

The location is amazing!!! We enjoyed this stay. The neighborhood is super quiet which we love. It was an extremely good location. Close to everything in Venice. The only downside is the bed needs to be replaced and there’s only one fan. The bed sinks in. It’s really bad! Everything else including Paolo was amazing!!

Fabulous vacation apartment

My husband and I rented Nati's House for a week's stay in Venice. The house was exactly as described on the website: it is clean, comfortable and well maintained with a fully functioning kitchen, and, best of all: a terrace overlooking a canal. The location is perfect: it is in a quiet building in a mostly residential area away from tourists, so one really has the feeling of living among locals, yet it is a short walking distance to the train station, the Grand Canal, and the vaporetta stop. There is a supermarket nearby and lots of great restaurants. Additionally, there is information in the apartment about places to go and see. Finally, Paolo, the owner, is charming, helpful, and available to answer questions about the apartment and to make suggestions about activities and places to visit. While there are many, many beautiful places to see in Venice, my favorite activity was simply riding the vaporetta, getting off at any random stop, and "getting lost" walking around Venice. We discovered wonderful shops, restaurants, bars and people. I'd travel to Venice again in a heartbeat and would definitely make sure I could stay at Nati's House.

Paolo’s place is in Cannaregio, on a small canal in an authentic Italian residential area, but only a few minutes walk from the Guglie water bus stop, so very convenient. We bought a 48 hour water bus pass and went to the island of Murano, St. Mark’s Square, and Rialto Bridge area. The neighborhood is very quiet at night, which was a nice break from the crowds of the tourist areas. We walked from our place to the historic Jewish ghetto neighborhood, through the streets, to where the canal meets the sea. The apartment was well equipped, the bed was comfortable, and we enjoyed having a balcony overlooking the canal. I would recommend this apartment to anyone looking to stay in Venice.

A Nice Apartment in a Great Location

We were given extensive and clear instructions on how to access the property. Any questions were answered in a timely manner. The property was very nice and clean and the bed comfortable. I enjoyed the patio to sit and read or just enjoy the surroundings. The washing machine was welcome so we could do some laundry. It’s also in a good location close to restaurants and shopping, yet our property is in a quiet neighborhood. Would definitely book again.

Das war nicht optimal Paolo hätte sich nicht wohlgefühlt

Paolo sollte investieren!Das Bett ist eine Katastrophe - eigentlich nur ein Metallgestell mit schlechten Matratzen. die Oberdecke ohne Bettbezug. Die Couch in der Küche schmuddelig und ausgeblichen. Es war die ganze Zeit kalt in der Wohnung zum Wohlfühlen bitte 21 Grad. in der Dusche praktisch kein Wasserdruck! Handwaschbecken spritzt nach allen Seiten. Die Toilette war bei unserem Ankommen bereits unappetitlich benutzt. Auf unseren Hinweis folgte keine Entschuldigung.Sorry aber 180 EUR die Nacht ist dafür einfach zu viel. Hier wird Venedig für Kurzaufenthalte ausgenutzt.

The area is easily accessed by water taxi and within 20 min walking distance of most must see sites. Although the bed was a little hard for our liking we still enjoyed our time at this lovely apartment.

Appartement idéal pour visiter Venise

L'appartement est vraiment bien situé dans le Cannaregio, près d'un arrêt de vaporetto et de plusieurs bons petita restaurants. Le quartier est très tranquille, loin de la horde de touristes. Le petit balcon ajoute une touche charmente au séjour à Venise. L'appartement est confortable, le lit était un peu mou selon nos préférences.

About the host

Host profile image
Owner: Paolo Devescovi, owner since 2003, architect free lance and art teacher in public school.
In early 2002 the stock exchange crisis caused by the disaster of the twin towers, spread over the world. In that occasion I saw my savings eroded considerably. So I decided to buy a little flat in Venice (Nati's House). I am an architect and surely I can take care of buildings better than care of money. Since then, the rental activity, held through the web, became an important activity of mine. As freelance architect I soon acquired clients who expressly wanted to restore or to refurbish their houses for doing the same rental activity I was managing for my new Venetian place. The whole has been dressed by my enthusiastic approach to the possibilities offered by the Internet. I aggregated around my private website a small community of guests. In some cases, true friendships started for long lasting rapports.
Since then, the rental activity, held through the web, became an important activity of mine. As freelance architect I soon acquired clients who wanted to restore or to refurbish their houses for doing the same rental activity I was managing for my own properties. The whole has been dressed by my enthusiastic approach to the possibilities offered by the Internet. I aggregated around my private website a small community of guests. In some cases, true friendships started for long lasting rapports.
Some years ago, some companies bought the whole trust of the online advertisements, beginning to target the fast online-booking-style through the search engines rather than to foster the quality of growing sincere relationships as I was used to offer through my website and my personal brand. Anyway I go to great lengths to maintain the original spirit and fight against standardization of great commercial websites. Right now I can count to the cooperation of my valid colleague and architect Carlotta Lo Verde.

What makes this property unique

On one thing I staid strong:
I maintained the same prices in all my advertisements..
This reduction takes into account the fact you have to pay an 8.7% average rate as Service Fee to book through this website (actually the total will grow as you proceed with the checkout procedure!). The price, based on short stays, you are going to pay using this website, is approximately the same you can find in my private website or in other websites advertising my property.
Differences may persist, but, positive or negative they are really inconsistent (a few euros due to the VAT policies, variability of currency rates and other factors). If you book through this website you will get the benefit of an insurance and my advertisement will rank into a higher position toward the top of the ‘anonymous competitors list’ of this website.
