Very nice duplex apartment San Polo. We appreciated the cleanness, cozy atmosphere and the panoramic terrace that gives view on the San Marco Campanile. The address is very central and located around many facilities such as bacari, trattoria, minisupermarket and bakery. Highly recommended!
The whole process of check in, with Lorenza meeting us at the water taxi drop off point and walking us to the apartment with a full tour was perfect. The apartment is so beautifully decorated with relics from other countries. It is stocked with all the necessary items and the roof top deck for sunset was a highlight. Alessandra gave us very nice restaurant recommendations and was great at communicating.
We loved our stay at this beautiful and tasteful apartment. We really enjoyed the roof deck! The only thing negative was that this is not really meant for two couplesâour mistakeâthe upstairs single beds were not comfortable for adults, though would have been great for kids. Not a big deal and we made it work. Thank you for sharing your place with us!
Everything was wonderful about the apartment and our stay. The apartment itself is lovely, clean, well equipped, unique and comfortable. We loved the rooftop deck. The AC was much appreciated! The host Alessandra and her local contact Lorenza were both very responsive and clear with all communication. The neighborhood was perfect, very central but very quiet during the nights and mornings. There is a good bakery downstairs. We would recommend to anyone who does not mind stairs and in relatively good shape. We would stay again if we visit again. Thank you!
We very much enjoyed our stay in this art filled and comfortable apartment. The neighborhood cannot be beat and Lorenza and Marco took great care to help us. The views are worth the climb. Thank you for a great stay!
This property is extremely cute, located up four or five flights of steps at the very top of the building and located in a great location accessible to all popular locations. The host provided a lot of great recommendations for resturaunts that locals eat at. There is a bakery at the corner of the building that we used every morning to get cappuccino, espresso and croissants. The host also suggested a water taxi that we used when we arrived and left. We had a 5:00 am pickup with the water taxi and it worked out great to get us to Marco Polo airport that early in the morning.The drop off point of the water taxi is very close to the apartment, making it convenient to get to the apartment with all of our bags. The property manager, Lorenza met us where the taxi dropped us off and walked with us to the apartment. She went over everything in the apartment and answered all our questions. We had a little issue with the AC split units on the first day in the apartment, but that could have been user error. Lorenza was very quick to respond and came over immediately to help make it work properly. There is a gorgeous view from the private rooftop terrace only accessable from this apartment. We sat out there every night and enjoyed the sunset with breathtaking views. This apartment is a 100% must book.
Fantastic location off the beaten path away from crowds but still a wonderful area. Will return!!! Lorenzo is amazing, extremely helpful with anything you might need or questions you may have.
My husband and I were traveling with our 2 adult children and this was the perfect apartment for us during our stay in Venice. Alessandra is a great host, providing many recommendations for everything from restaurants to water taxis. And I cannot say enough great things about Lorenza the property manager. Our train arrived later than planned and she patiently waited for us at the vaporetto stop, guiding us from the train station to the correct water bus line. And despite it being late, she took the time to show us around the apartment and ensure we were settled and had everything we needed. The location is fabulous - The views from the rooftop are spectacular and the cafe right downstairs is a must stop for breakfast each day. We also appreciated the air conditioning as it was quite warm during our stay at the end of May. As mentioned in a few other reviews, just be aware there is no lift - it wasn't a problem for us but just be prepared to climb the stairs with your luggage. Highly recommend this property for your Venice holiday.
Gorgeous top floor location with lots of space, beautiful views of the city and very close walk to restaurants, churches, etc without being overcrowded.
We loved this antique and art-filled apartment! Alessandraâs apartment is well loved and obviously a home, not just a rental. The views from the Altana are stunning! Love this place.
We stayed a week. The flat is in an excellent location. Spotlessly clean and comfortable. Also delightful in its design, furnishings and artwork. It is a dream cottage in the sky. I would give it 10 stars if possible. A water taxi from the airport or train station will land you 100 yards from the front door. If you arrive by train it is a short 10 minute walk. We loved this flat.
Worth the steps to the apartment!!! The views were magnificent. The apartment was incredible!! Waking up each morning and opening the shutters to the streets below felt like I lived there. Centrally located. Coffee/pastry shop downstairs was a MUST each morning. Highly recommend.
This apartment had everything we needed and we felt very much at home during our stay. Communication was seamless and responsive. Being central, nothing was more than a 20 minute walk. We would highly recommend this property.
We had a lovely stay at this beautiful, spacious apartment. The host and property manager were both very kind and were always helpful with suggestions. The property is perfectly situated with a rooftop panoramic view of the city. Highly recommend this beautiful apartment to explore Venice!
We enjoyed an amazing stay at this home near San Polo in Venice. The home is beautiful, spacious, and very clean. The large bathroom was a welcome change compared to our other stops on this trip. The living room and dining room allowed plenty of space for our family of four adults to relax and recount our exploring of the city - everything within a reasonable walk. The kitchen is well-appointed and the washer + rooftop clothesline were so helpful.
The views from the rooftop are awesome at any time of day!
There are 80 steps to the apartment and no lift, so be prepared for that.
Communication was exceptional before and during our visit and Alessandra provided great directions and local recommendations.
Using WhatsApp, Lorenza guided us from the train station to the correct water taxi line and then was waiting for us at the vaporetto stop. This sure made our arrival and check-in easy!
We highly recommend this home and would certainly return again.
