Venice without the tourists? We’re in. This two-bedroom apartment is just as refined as it is practical, with an open living space overlooking the city skyline, a kitchenette, and classic Venetian colours and details. There are two bedrooms for added privacy, and we love how kid-friendly this home is, with children’s toys and books, plus a cot and high chair available. Outside, you have the best of Venice a short walk away, the undisturbed Dorsoduro district right at your doorstep, and plenty of local spots nearby for an evening spritz – it is Venice, after all.

Home truths
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair free of charge, you'll need to request them in advance. You’ll also find a selection of children’s books and toys at the home.
One of the bedrooms is set up with two single beds that can be joined together to form a double – just let your host know in advance.
Parking in Venice can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.

About Dorsoduro
Located just south of Rialto, Dorsoduro is a large and culturally rich quarter. The majority of Ca' Foscari (the main university in the city) is in this area, so the people here skew young and trendy. It’s one of Venice’s best spots for nightlife, with crowds gathering in squares deep into the summer evenings. There are also pockets of calm though, like the canalside paths which offer panoramic views over...
