A warm and welcoming apartment, directly overlooking one of the most-photographed and charming locations in Dorsoduro - the historic and very characterful Squero di San Trovaso (founded in the 17th Century and the oldest of only a tiny handful of working gondola boatyards still left in Venice today, where skilled local artisans continue to craft, maintain and repair gondolas by hand using century old methods).
Sleeping up to seven in comfort and enjoying privileged views over the junction of the Rio dei Ognissanti and the Rio de San Trovaso canals, the recently renovated Ca' Dello Squero is on the first floor and features characterful beams coupled with tasteful decoration throughout. Accommodation comprises a snug and cosy sitting room with plenty of comfortable seating, super canal views and warm, wooden flooring underfoot plus a well-equipped eat-in kitchen/dining room with tiled flooring, ample dining furniture and plenty of space.
There are three cheerfully furnished bedrooms, each with wooden flooring - a bright and airy double with canal views and its own sunny yellow bathroom with bathtub, a further pretty double with canal views and twin beds and a third bedroom with two twin beds. The second bathroom, boldly decorated with crimson tiling, has a shower.
Peaceful and relaxing, the apartment is air-conditioned to allow clients a comfortable stay at any time of the year and has internet connection with cable.
One of our most popular properties - consistently well-reviewed by happy guests for both the quality of its accommodation and its superb position. Close to the Accademia Bridge/Academy of Fine Arts on the Grand Canal and within seconds of the Zattere promenade with its memorable panorama across to the island of Giudecca.
Are you part of a larger group who would like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer other apartments in this building: Ca' Dello Squero 2 and Ca' Del Rio.
OUR COMMENT
Within very easy reach of the renowned ‘Cantinone Gia Schiavi - Al Bottegon’, a perfect venue for a spritz and some prize winning ‘cicheti’, ‘Lo Squero’, one of the best gelateria in the city and 'Locanda Montin', one of Venice's most famous restaurants. Close to the well-stocked Billa Supermarket on the Zattere, along which you'll also find some great dining options, including the chic over-water terrace of ‘Lineadombra’ or, for something simpler, ‘Ae Oche’ with its mind-boggling variety of eat-in or takeaway pizza.
Convenient for two vaporetto stops for easy travel around the city - the ‘Zattere’ to the south and ‘Accademia’ to the north and only one minute to the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.
