This colourful apartment in the heart of Venice is ideal for sharing among couples. Its interior is a tad dated, yet charming, and worth noting is that it’s located on the second floor with steps only. Having said that – we’re sure you’ll be busy sightseeing in a city as unique as this one, with some of its most famous landmarks, such as San Marco Square and the Rialto Bridge, within walking distance. Looking to accommodate a larger group? There are two more apartments in this building which you can try to rent out.

Home truths
Your host operates several apartments here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos.
Expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
There's no lift here. You'll need to climb stairs to reach the home's entrance on the second floor.
The traditional decor might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
The compact kitchen isn't the biggest, but there are fantastic restaurants nearby.
The second bedroom lacks wardrobe space, so we'd recommend packing light. There also isn't a washing machine here.
Parking in Venice can be tricky, so we recommend using public transport, water taxis and exploring on foot.

About San Marco
San Marco is probably the most well-known of Venice’s main districts, and the most popular among tourists. It’s packed with monuments – it has spectacular palaces and churches, and consistently beautiful Gothic and Renaissance architecture. The central square is, unsurprisingly, an important tourist hub. A lot of the luxury hotels are around here, so it’s not necessarily the place to find authentic, family-run restaurants or cafes. This area’s known for...

Explore the Gallerie dell'Accademia
This is the place to discover the city's most important art collection, spanning the fourteenth to the eighteenth century.
Enjoy the Peggy Guggenheim collection
This private collection houses works by key twentieth-century artists including Dalì, Picasso, and Mondrian. The palace it's held in is a marvel in itself.
See an opera at Teatro la Fenice
Teatro la Fenice's name translates to 'Phoenix Theatre', a name it earned by being burned down twice. Remember to book in advance – most shows sell out.
Photograph the view from the bridge
Ponte dell'Accademia is the southernmost of the four bridges of Venice that cross the Canal Grande, and it offers the best view of the water.
Have an ice cream at Gelateria Nico
Come here especially for the gianduiotto, a swirl of ice cream placed in a glass before being drowned in whipped cream.
Discover the Grand Canal
Immerse yourself in the beauty and serenity of the Grand Canal in Venice. Take a gondola ride and marvel at the classical buildings that line this iconic waterway.
Make reservations at Bistrot de Venise
An exquisite gem in the heart of Venice, offering authentic Italian cuisine with modern twists. Meticulously prepared dishes, flawless service, and an ambience that captivates.
