Le Vele Luxury Mini Apartment
Everything was perfect

Apartment in the Heart of Museums District
A very pleasant stay in this apartment which is perfectly as described. The location is ideal, communication is simple and smooth and the host was very accommodating in front of our flight misadventures. Thanks for the stay.

MADDALENA CANAL HOUSE
A perfect stay in a perfect location. The host was great and organised a water taxi for us at cost, which made the journey so easy. Everything was perfect inside, and space to easily enjoy the 3 days in Venice. Comfy bed and couch. Even 2 chairs to sit and watch gondalas go by out the window. The location was a short walk to both the busy tourist streets, the local walkways and also restaurants. Try the local pasta in a box place right near the corner - both yum and great value.

Luxury Bright Spacious 75sqm apt view canal/lagoon
A superbly stylish and well-appointed AirBnB in a peaceful and lovely location away from the busier tourist spots. Close to the vaporetto, though, therefore easy to get to all the must-see sights of Venice. We loved the art, the Richard Sapper design pieces and the beautiful coloured gondola fragments. Very special.

Biennale penthouse overlooking the lagoon and St. Mark's basin
My stay in Venice was a pure joy thanks to this fantastic apartment. The highlight is definitely the balcony - this is one of these places where time had stoped and that's where you see the greatest beauty in life. Just imagine : you're in Venice, sitting at that balcony at night, staring at the moonlight above the steers of the most beautiful cities in the world. And you get the feeling you're living in some fairy tale. The apartment is elegant and clean and so well equipped that you just don't want to leave. The host is very friendly and generous. It was an excellent experience. I highly recommend this place.

Canal View Arsenal Entrance 110 sqm
Such a fantastic apartment and beautiful spot that this was a return trip. Olivier the owner - and his friend Alessanrdro who met us for check-in, were wonderful hosts. The corner apartment, with aspect onto the canal and to the Arsenale square is simply hard to beat. Impeccably renovated and a pure delight to relax in when taking a break from walking the streets of Venice. Thank you for sharing this little slice of heaven with us.

Ca dei Zoti 2 - San Marco with luggages room
Maria & Carlo were amazing hosts! They made it super easy to check in, as they took the time to meet us and made sure we knew our way around Venice! They also gave great restaurant recommendations and responded back quickly whenever we had questions about things to do or how to get around. We will definitely stay here again if we make it back to Venice in the future!

Three Floors of Perfection with Private Garden
We traveled with a family group of nine people and had plenty of space for everyone. And the location was peaceful, as it is about a twenty-five minute walk from the heavily visited tourist spots. There are restaurants and a grocery store nearby. It met our needs well as we visited Venice for a few days, and the owner and manager were very helpful.

Apartment with a view of the canal
We were greeted right away and checked in personally. We felt right at home and the process was very easy and effortless. The place was bigger than expected and can easily accommodate a whole family. It felt very cozy and the location was perfect. The view is truly amazing, seeing the canal from your bedroom window was very nice. Highly recommend going to the pizzeria/restaurant that’s just a 3 min walk from the apartment. Overall highly recommend this very romantic and cozy stay in Murano.

Lux in Venice?Have a private garden like this flat
An apartment with a lovely garden in a quiet area. Several vaporetto stops are within 10 minutes. You can reach everything within 20 minutes.

Garden in the Venice Murano lagoon
It’s a beautiful house in Murano and super convenient to get around. We had everything we wanted and especially loved the kitchen. Our kid was super happy with the garden and lot of space to play :) the hosts were always responsive with whatever questions we had. Highly recommended.

Dorsoduro Tranquil Escape: Canal views & serenity
Everything was wonderful! Location is away from the tourist crowds, my family enjoyed walking everywhere…apartment was perfect. Little room for improvement would be better towels and more toilet paper and facial tissue. I’d love to stay again when I go back to Venice!

Unique 2 Level House with Garden, 4 px, 2 bathroom
Apartment is super nice. Host is very helpful. Would rent again.

White and Blu House in Venice
When our original flat was cancelled at the last minute we were so relieved that Nena and Elena were able to give us a later check-in and accommodate us. They were both in touch on our day of arrival and we felt very reassured - great hosts. The house was lovely, lots of space, very quiet at night and we slept so well. Thank you

Your fairytale in Venice SANITIZED
Chiara was a joy from start to finish. Lots of helpful messages even before our trip. Then really flexible and helpful when we arrived. Made our start in Venice so relaxing. The apartment is beautiful and clean and right in the middle of the City. We can’t of asked for more on our stay. Grazie Chiara….

La Finestra sul Laguna
You'd probably need to pay a fortune for a balcony in Venice, but this is the next best thing! Amazing views, comfortable bed and enough kit to cook a meal. 5 minutes to Fondamente Nuove, so easy to catch vaperetti to all of Venice's attractions

[VENEZIA-RIALTO] CASA COLONNA (A/C WiFi)
Fantastic Airbnb located perfectly to restaurants, and the water taxi stop. There was also a wonderful market right around the corner that had both fresh fish and produce. I would stay here again!

Ca’ Zulian Palace - Grand Canal
Even BIGGER & BETTER than the photos.. This place feels like a giant art gallery, decorated so beautifully with an unforgettable view. I felt very safe, warm & comfortable here. This is the place you must book if you want authentic charm & to feel like a royal princess. Pedro was extremely helpful & clear with instructions & directions to the place, then I was greeted by Caterina upon arrival. She was also kind enough to take me to a gorgeous local bar on the canal for a drink, then proceeded to show me around Venice a little more & gave me lots of tips as well as places to go. Everything is walkable, the area feels safe even at night. Pack light as there are lots of stairs! Not just at the air BnB but all over Venice in general. There is so much to do close by, with great options for coffee, treats, shopping & food - I really enjoyed my stay, I wish it could’ve been longer than 2 nights but I will absolutely be back for much longer next time. Thank you 🙏

★[JESOLO-DELUXE]★ Elegant Apartment with Pool
Wonderfull host. Markus was available 24/7 for support. Very nice property in quite place near beach.

CA CAMMELLO exclusive terrace and canal view
Wonderful location in Cannareggio, directly on a canal. Everything you need is within easy walking distance. Do buy a vaporetto pass for your stay. We tried one of the host/suggested restaurants and it was wonderful! We went several times to Vino Vera for Cichhetti, and it was wonderful. Aside from being in a place which in and of itself is art, head to the Peggy Guggenheim collection for an enthralling experience with Dali, Jackson Pollock, Picasso, Magritte, Klee and many other mind boggingly beautiful paintings. We had an absolutely wonderful time at Ca’ Camello in Venezia! Prego!

Charming Apartment with Terrace near San Marco
What a perfect location for a first trip to Venice. Monica arranged our private water taxi to meet us at the train station, as well as take us to the airport. As first time visitors, that assistance was so appreciated and valuable. Fernando was onsite to help us get settled and to see us off at the dock. Location wise - what a truly magical location. Out of the front door is the Gritti Palace (where we enjoyed cocktails overlooking the Grand Canal). We easily walked everywhere. The rooftop deck was a perfect place to relax mid day. There are several recommendations available for restaurants (we went to several and enjoyed all meals). There’s a lovely bar for coffee and croissants very close. Everything was just easy, magical, and helped to make our trip so special.

Terrace Luxury Loft, for 6 people
Wonderful host and a great apartment. Thank you for the water taxi coordination and the connection to the tour guide!
