Nestled in the storied quarter of San Marco, this apartment is packed with Venetian grandeur. Artwork, gold accents, and antiques all combine together to create a unique hideaway. There's plenty of room for a small group between the lounge, dining room, and two traditional bedrooms. It won't suit those looking for modern touches (though there are plenty of contemporary comforts inside), but it suits the historic surroundings perfectly. Speaking of setting, you'll be in the heart of Venice here. Landmarks like the famous Accademia Bridge and Piazza San Marco are within easy reach – not to mention an array of eateries and shops.

Gold Touch

This unique and wonderfully characterful apartment is filled with traditional Venetian charm and a certain effortless style, whilst also offering a range of handy amenities and all the mod-cons you could need for a memorable, comfortable stay in this iconic, inimitable city. We especially love the shining tile floors and rustic exposed wooden beams that give this home a sense of history and place. On the other hand, the sleek modern kitchen and high-spec bathrooms bring the space right into the 21st century. Warm, cosy, and undeniably beautiful, we think this home is a real find – and the perfect starting point for your own Venetian voyage. 

Within easy reach of this typically Venetian Palazzo, you will find yourself at the famous St. Mark's Square, as well as amongst the fantastic restaurants, bars, cafes, and shopping opportunities that bring the city to life. Take a walk over the historic Rialto Bridge, or hop aboard a Vaporetto that will take you along the winding canals that make Venice one of the most special places on earth. 

San Marco Style

Gaze out over the terracotta-tiled rooftops of San Marco towards the soaring bell tower and iconic domes of the basilica from your awe-inspiring top-floor terrace. Whether you're sipping that first coffee of the day as the city comes to life around you or luxuriating in a relaxing glass of red at sunset – it's an enviable spot to simply sit and take it all in. 

The apartment's main level is bright and open, a real rarity in Venice due to its tightly packed, narrow streets. It blends modern industrial-inspired design – think exposed steel beams and a metal-framed dining table – with Renaissance floral sofas to create a unique atmosphere. Elsewhere, the spiral steps will lead you to the second bedroom and the previously mentioned terrace.

There's no denying the beauty of St Mark's Square – however, its peak season crowds can be a little much. Thanks to the apartment's proximity, you're free to wander relatively undisturbed, either first thing or at the end of the day, and make the most of that golden light for outstanding Instagram-worthy photos. Elsewhere, Venice highlights such as Rialto Bridge are little more than a five-minute walk away, and the nearby vaporetto stop places the rest of the city within easy reach.

St Mark's Lookout

Conveniently located just behind St Mark’s Square, this apartment is a superb choice for holidays in Venice. It’s sleek and modern, with gold accents and a pretty feature wall in the bedroom. An elegant home, it’s ideal for couples or friends travelling together. 

Whip up snacks in the kitchen and tuck in around the glass dining table, before heading out to explore the city. There are two Vaporetto stops close by, Rialto and San Zaccaria, so you can easily see the sights that are slightly further afield. You need only walk for five minutes to reach the iconic Rialto Bridge and Market. This is an excellent base, whether you plan on spending your time soaking up the art and culture of the city, or prefer to go from meal to meal. 


Venetian Gold

Find this chic apartment in the heart of Venice, just steps away from Rialto Bridge. It’s an ideal base for those looking to explore this beautiful city with ease, walking hand-in-hand along the famous canals. You can get to the bank of the Grand Canal in no time. 

After some time soaking in the scenes and taking a few snaps, walk the six minutes to Piazza San Marco and let yourself be inspired by the pre-renaissance architecture and romantic energy of the place. And on your way home, stop by Rialto Market to pick up some fresh produce to whip up a snack and try out some of the unusual yet wonderful fruits.

Stepping inside after a long day will feel like coming home. The cosmopolitan style has a big-city feel to it, while the Venetian floorings and comforting furniture bring back a sense of warmth. Sink into the cosy sofa and tuck into a snack while decompressing in front of the smart TV, before getting ready to go out for dinner. 

Venetian Bliss

This is one of those places that starts out great and just gets better and better. You know you've hit the jackpot as you approach the building – an 18th century Grand Canal palace in one of the best locations in the city. The entrance is a beautiful mix of old and new, with classical statues and a state-of-the-art lift up to your top floor apartment. It all bodes well, and the payoff is impossible to miss. From the terrace of this gorgeous home, there are views over this most famous of canals to the bell tower of St Marks – and right the way to the snow-capped Dolomites mountains beyond. The sitting room is impressive, with its renaissance-style windows leading out to the alfresco dining space. On top of that, there are marble bathrooms with stunning bisazza tiles and a kitchen with high-end appliances and a professional wine fridge. But it’s the attention to detail in the bedrooms that sets this place apart, with custom-made furniture and beautiful hand-painted walls. Take in the home's original pieces and period mouldings overhead as you nod off. Right in the centre of things, there is much to see and do right on your doorstep. Take a fifteen-minute stroll to St. Mark's Square for its striking architecture and beloved Basilica. Hop on a gondola past the Rialto Bridge nearby, and ensure you sample the local cuisine for a real taste of Venice. 

Another Level

How's that for a view? Looking directly out over St. Mark's Basilica and Square and with the water in the background, you wouldn't be blamed for spending a sizeable portion of your trip on the balcony here. Don't snub the interior, though – there are several nooks you can break off into, meaning it's perfect for two couples who might want some alone time. If you're a family, the two single beds, both on the smaller side, are ideal for kids. And when you want to explore, the excellent location means you'll find things to do in all directions.

Basilica Bliss

Find this elegant apartment directly on the famous Grand Canal, with gorgeous views of the atmospheric scenes from every window. Embrace the magic of this famous city from your ideally positioned base, spending lazy mornings watching the gondolas go by from your balcony, savouring a freshly brewed coffee. 

It's not just the canal view that makes this home special. Stepping inside you’ll find a super-sleek, contemporary apartment adopting a modern preference for minimalism. You might even be tempted by the well-equipped kitchen, even though there are so many fantastic restaurants around. The clean, polished finishes are wonderfully chic, while the bedrooms are comfortable and warm. 

Exploring Venice couldn’t be easier from here. Being on the Grand Canal, you have cultural and historical sights in every direction. Take a few steps to the Rialto Bridge and simply take time to soak in the romance of the city, before exploring the museums and galleries. And Saint Mark’s Square is just a ten-minute walk away, where you can marvel at the 9th-century basilica. 

Vista of Venezia

This understated yet elegant apartment with a contemporary finish enjoys a wonderful location just moments away from the Grand Canal itself and close to numerous shops, wine bars, and local eateries – making it a great choice for a family holiday, a friends' getaway, or a romantic escape. It offers great views of the canal, particularly from the bedroom, so you can look forward to waking up, opening up the windows, and taking in the vista as well as the atmosphere. The iconic St Mark’s Square is reachable in ten minutes on foot, while the Vaporetto stops within walking distance provide the opportunity to explore the rest of the city using traditional transport with ease.

Venetian Red

In a city with so many incredible accommodation options, you'll know that you made the right choice from the moment you lay your eyes on the jaw-dropping 360-degree views from the rooftop. With Marco Polo Airport and the Dolomites to the North and every tower and rooftop in Venice immediately surrounding you – it's even better than the photos. We'd encourage at least one early morning wake-up call to take in the changing colours as the sun rises, while a sunset Prosecco goes down a treat at the end of a long day of exploring. Once you've disembarked the water taxi and climbed the stairs to the front door, you'll be greeted by a seamless mix of original features and contemporary design. The interior offers an irresistible blend of exposed beams, ornate antique furniture and intricate wood mosaic flooring alongside a Scandinavian-inspired kitchen and modern artwork. The standout feature is, of course, the two outdoor terraces and accompanying views. There's ample outdoor seating so that you can pick a different spot for each meal. Then, having viewed the city from above, it's time to step out on the streets. You're conveniently close to some of Venice's headline highlights – St. Mark's Basilica and adjoining piazza are just a three-minute walk. At the same time, you're only 275m from Rialto Bridge, plus there's a supermarket and plenty of great restaurants and shops right on your doorstep.


Where Birds Fly

Inside a historic building near Piazza San Marco, this apartment combines modern living with original features seamlessly. The wooden ceiling beams and mix of vintage and contemporary furniture create a cosy space, but the best thing about this home lies just outside. Open the window and you can watch the gondolas sail along Venice's world-famous canals,  so location-wise it’s ideal if you’re keen on staying in a central spot. There’s a full kitchen here, giving you the option to cook with the amazing ingredients you can buy from the city's incredible array of shops.

The City Canals

Boasting all the splendour and elegance you'd expect from a historic Venetian home, this apartment is tailor-made for spending blissful breaks in between busy days exploring this vibrant and memorable city. Ornate panelled walls, high ceilings, sparkling chandeliers and antique furniture all add to the exquisite classical style, with luxurious little touches such as a grand piano and home library that give the home a stately vibe. You can enjoy some gorgeous views over the canal through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
