Casa Vetrai Overlook Canal in Murano – Venice
What a lovely place! We had an amazing time at Elettra's place. It has an amazing view and exceeded our expectations! I'll recommend it to anyone wishing to visit Venice or Murano. Elettra was very helpful and informative. Thank you for everything.

THE MADDALENA CANAL HOUSE
Great stay in a really pleasant, quieter area with a lot of access to restaurants, experiences etc at a place that felt refreshing and like home.

M0270429902 Venice lagoon skyline
Fabio was very responsive to messages. We sent our arrival time and Fabio did not hesitate in meeting us earlier than check in time. We went away and had coffee whilst he finished cleaning the apartment. Ideally situated next to the aqua bus terminal Faro and a five minute walk from the airport blue line terminal - the location was perfect. Murano is so chilled and has a lovely vibe. The apartment was clean, had everything we needed including a hairdryer. The views were beautiful. We visited Burano and Venice. Would definitely recommend staying here.

NEW OPEN TOP LOCATION 3
We stayed 2 nights in this Venice apartment. We arrived at the Rialto Bridge stop by vaporetto. The video with directions to the apartment was very helpful. The host was friendly and communicated through text. The location is great! So close to the Rialto Bridge, but tucked back into a peaceful area. We felt safe. The apartment was very clean. It was quiet at night with the windows closed. The air conditioning in the bedrooms and living area all worked well. There are 2 flights of stairs to access the apartment with no elevator/lift, so you need to be able to get your bags up and down the stairs. This was not a problem for us. There are many restaurants for coffee, pastries, and gelato very close by the apartment. It was a very easy 8 minute walk to San Marco square and the Doge’s palace. We were 4 adults sharing the apartment and we were all pleased with it. The price was great when split by 2 couples. We would stay there again!

Grand Canal next to Guggenheim
The apartment was beautiful and perfect for our group of two mothers and three daughters for a few nights. The view right on to the grand canal was fantastic and the apartment itself was spacious, clean and well set up. We liked being out of the crowds but easily within walking distance to all major sights, a few steps away from the nearest water taxi stop. Our hosts were friendly and responsive to any of our questions. Thanks for a great stay, we highly recommend this apartment for anyone visiting Venice!

Luxury designer flat with large private courtyard
We really like the house, a designer place. All the details made with thought and it’s not a common apartment - in Venice is hard to find these kind of designer places. Gets slightly dark, less light in the house but we also liked that. Neighborhood is amazing! Far from the loud crowd yet close to walking distance everywhere.

Biennale penthouse overlooking the lagoon and St. Mark's basin
Great stay and attentive hosts. Would highly recommend.

Luxury Historic Apartment on Calm Sunny Canal
Marc and Elizabeth’s space is spacious and beautiful. The kitchen and bathrooms are tidy and well equipped, and the beds are comfortable for sure, but the inspiring design is what should compel you to book. All the details make it feel very special from the terrazzo floors, to the textiles, to the thoughtful lighting. My teenaged sons will forever remember lounging in that gorgeous living room, playing chess while Gilberto Gil and John Coltrane play softly on CD in the background. Cannaregio is a perfect place to stay — away from the most crowded areas but still accessible to everything . For reference, we were able to walk to the Maritime museum on the opposite side of Venice in 30 minutes. Elizabeth was kind and her dining recommendations were spot on.

On Canal with private Hot Tub & Garden
I highly recommend booking Andrea’s place in Venice. It was the perfect stay, with very thorough and clear instructions checking in. It is spacious, relaxing and offers privacy. The spa was absolutely perfect for relaxing after a long day of walking and enjoying the accommodations of the city. Andrea was also very kind enough to check in through messaging and make sure we had everything we needed. You’ll be highly satisfied and definitely feel that you got your money’s worth in this location. 10/10!!!

Ca dei Zoti 2 - San Marco with luggages room
If this flat is available for your time frame, don’t hesitate. Possibly the best place I ever rented. Excellent location, pristinely clean, Great beds. Carlo went above and beyond to show us are surrounding area and highlights. Take his advice on the bakery and restaurant. So happy we were able to experience this place. I would go back. Thanks

Apartment with a view of the canal
Beautiful view and right next to Farragona water/boat taxi. The hostess was wonderful- flexible with our check-in/out. Easy to communicate. The apartment is spacious and clean. We always felt safe. It is a more quiet area and that was just what I was hoping - peaceful and relaxing.

Luxury apartment with terrace over the water
Wonderful place. Easy walk to almost anywhere in Venice, and the Accademia Vaporetto stop is just a few minutes walk away. Wonderful views feom the Accademia bridge. A/C works great even in the heat wave.

Lux in Venice?Have a private garden like this flat
Beautiful Airbnb, in a very convenient to Fondamenta Nove for water taxis and taking the alilaguna to and from the airport. Comfortable apt, clean and close to shops and restaurants. My favorite neighborhood. Highly recommended. We hope to return!

Garden in the Venice Murano lagoon
Absolutely superb place, we really liked the house and great location. Host was very responsive and provided helpful guidances. Everything during our stay was very cool and nice. Thank you very much for providing a nice stay..

Apartment "La piccola Corte"
We stayed in Fabiola's apartment for one night and only negative was not having more time to spend at least another day exploring the city! Very nice location, a few steps away from the canal but close to plenty nearby cafes and restaurants. We took the Alilaguna straight from the airport to Guglie which was convenient even with 3 kids and luggage 😊 Fabiola had arranged an easy check-in proactively. Spacious place for two but as we spent very little time inside it was enough for 5 as well. Baby bed, super nice bathroom, clean kitchen and access direct from the street. All in all very neat but still authentic Venice feel 😊

Gorgeous Suite San Polo apartment
Elia's place was absolutely wonderful. Located in a quiet side street yet still very central and just a few minutes from the bus station, it offered the perfect mix of peace and convenience. The apartment itself was beautifully decorated, with charming details and artwork on the walls throughout. Each room was tastefully and thoughtfully furnished, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. I felt right at home from the very first moment. I can wholeheartedly recommend this accommodation!

Murano-Venezia Yellow Garden House - Apartment
Very nice, clean and in a very calm area, I recommend it!

Central Rooftop Terrace - Domus dei Fabbri
The best Airbnb I’ve stayed at! The most amenities, very clean, well stocked with coffee, tea, condiments, etc. Beatrice let us at the pier and helped us with our luggage and showed us where the place is, along with some restaurant and grocery store recommendations. She is soooo organized, very nice, the place was very roomy, decorated very nicely, and was in the heart of everything! Highly recommend this place!

Canal Tron
Perfect Airbnb in a quiet neighborhood!

Venice: Ca' dei Gemelli – Rialto Bridge☀️
We loved this Airbnb for our Venice trip! The location was cute and had everything we needed within waking distance without the touristy hub bub of other parts of the city. We felt welcomed by Elena and she was detailed and responsive about communication. Her lovely little guide book was very informative - great pizza recommendation! We also loved the wonderful decor - she has a great eye for decorating!

CA CAMMELLO exclusive terrace and canal view
A true gem! The balcony really adds a unique dimension; to be able and watch every day life in Venice was so interesting. The apartment is in easy walk of great cafes and restaurants and handy for The Vaporetto and water taxis. We travelled with my 89 year old mother and were very grateful for the flexible check in after our early flight. We ate out each meal, so easy with so many great places in easy walking distance. Amongst our favourite, for breakfast was San Giovanni Vini e Cicchetti for fabulous chichetti !

Terrace Luxury Loft, for 6 people
Our group of five had a fantastic stay in Venice. Pietro was very helpful with arranging water taxis for us so we were able to be dropped off right at the balcony of the Airbnb. There are great restaurants nearby and it’s easy to walk to the Rialto Bridge and St. Mark’s square. Would definitely stay here again!
