Ground Floor Garden Apartment

We have stayed in this spacious, very comfortable apartment several times and find it the ideal base to enable one to relax and enjoy a part of Venice removed from (but not far from) the hustle and bustle of the more 'touristy' areas. After a day of walking and looking, it is great to return, footsore, to one's own front door, step inside, put up one's feet - or, possibly, head straight for the garden to enjoy a cool glass of white wine whilst reviewing the day's meanderings. What bliss! The apartment is well equipped with so many thoughtful touches to make guests feel immediately at home. It has a welcoming 'feel'. Johanna and Bruce are considerate hosts and go out of their way to provide care and attention with a personal touch.

We love this peaceful corner of Venice and enjoy observing the day-to-day activities of those who live and work here - going about their business, going to school - and for a short time we are able to feel we are a small part of ordinary Venetian life. There are many good bars and restaurants catering for all tastes, as well as easy shopping, all conveniently nearby.

Thank you Johanna and Bruce, it is a treat to be able to share your home and we hope it won't be long before our next visit!

We had so much help and information from the lovely friendly owners before our arrival - This was our first visit to Venice and Johanna made our visit even more special by giving us lots of really helpful tips and advice - the apartment is in an excellent location with easy access from the airport and around the Venetian canals and Islands - it is indeed a home from home with so many amenities that makes a trip to Venice even more special - Thanks for a wonderful week that we will always remember

We stayed in this apartment a month ago and are already wishing we could go back. It has everything you hope to find in a holiday apartment and so much more besides.

Spacious, but comfortable and cosy; all the appliances you could possibly need - and clear instructions on how to use them; instructive guide books; a courtyard garden, overlooked, yes, but you too can look up and see the daily routine of ‘real’ people; in a delightful area not overrun with tourists, on a quiet, street but with a boat stop just round the corner, a supermarket a few minutes away, and a good choice of bars and restaurants nearby.

And, above all, the organisation of our stay was impeccable. From the first enquiry to the return of the key we knew that if there were the slightest question or problem Johanna would provide the information or find a solution immediately.

We would return tomorrow if we could!

Many thanks Johanna.
