A terrace hanging over the Grand Canal, where gondolas glide past illuminated palaces while you dine alfresco – this top-floor apartment in an 18th-century palazzo is hard to beat for a Venetian setting. Inside, velvet sofas face the water, a Murano glass chandelier presides over the dining room, and a four-poster bedroom painted with botanicals adds a richly decorated counterpoint to the views. The Rialto Bridge is a short stroll away, and St Mark's Basilica is reachable on foot in around fifteen minutes – Venice's greatest hits, all within easy reach.

Home truths
The home comprises two interconnected apartments, which works well if part of your group wants more independence – but bear in mind you'll be moving between the two sections to spend time together. Only one of the apartments has balconies.
The lift brings you to the third floor, but there are around eight steps from there up to the apartment – worth keeping in mind if anyone in your group has mobility concerns or you're travelling with heavy luggage.
This home doesn't accept groups of young people up to 18 years old.

About Rialto
Rialto is right in the middle of Venice’s other main districts – it doesn't really get more central than this. It’s a favourite with tourists, particularly as its less hectic than San Marco (this is all relative though – everywhere in Venice is packed). It’s intersected by many small intertwining canals, which make for good views and plenty of opportunity for gondola rides, if that's your cup of tea. Perhaps...
