This lovely penthouse is placed in a typical XVIII Venetian palace, in Santa Croce district, a central area that has been spared the flux of tourists and where you can still find the typical and honest side of the town.

Each room is bright and sunny, enjoy panoramic view on the canal and the surrounding roofs and “altanas”, the typical Venitian terraces placed on top of the buildings. Sun goes down in the living room setting a charming atmosphere.
The area: The penthouse is only 10 min walk from the train station and 15 min from the bus station. San Stae waterbus stop is only 1 minute away without bridges to pass trough. You can enjoy your breakfast in one the many typical bars and restaurants around campo San Giacomo (1 min), visit the church - one of the oldest in the town - where there are paintings by Veronese and Lotto. The Natural History Museum and the Modern Art Museum are both 2 minute walk. Rialto fresh food market and Rialto Bridge are only 5 minute away and from there you can reach San Marco square with a 10 min lovely walk.

Wonderful rental!
Wonderful place to rent. Great location; quiet but close to all that Venice has to offer. The description is very accurate. Very clean and had all we needed for our two night stay for a family of 6. The owner was very helpful before and during our stay. We would definitely go back!

Over The Rooftops
This apartment is lovely and the kitchen is well stocked for those who like to cook. We enjoyed the view of the enchanting rooftops of Venice and the San Stae vaporetto stop is just minutes away. There are several charming restaurants at Campo S. Giacomo dell'Orio which is about a five minute walk. We especially enjoyed watching the children and dogs playing in the square after school. One thing to be aware of; there are many, many steps to climb to access the apartment but is worth the effort.

Wonderful apartment!
The apartment looks just like the pictures, very clean and well kept. There were 5 adults in our group and we had more than enough room. We were met at the water bus station and walked to the apartment, which was helpful. The apartment is located very close to the water bus stop which is convenient, and there are several restaurants, a bakery and grocery store very close to the apartment. Two things to keep in mind: (1) this apartment is located on the 3rd floor with no elevator and the stairs are steep but not unbearable, and (2) there is no A/C in the 3rd bedroom/studio room but if the door to that room is left open then the AC from the living room helps cool it down slightly. All in all it was a great place to stay and we would definitely stay at this apartment if ever in Venice again.
Könnte nicht besser sein! Wunderbares Apartment in bester Lage, alles was man braucht in unmittelbarer Nähe. Ruhig und toller Blick über die Dächer von Venedig. Rialtobrücke in unmittelbarer Gehnähe. Kommunikation im Vorfeld und vor Ort perfekt, Schlüsselübergabe reibungslos. Gerne wieder!
We’ve now celebrated our daughter’s third and tenth birthday in this great space. Giorgia makes everything very easy. We love the location (near La Zucca) and an easy walk to just about anywhere.
We loved staying at the apartment for our visit to Venice. Great communication with owner, great location for our visit and great apartment. Can't wait to visit again!!!
Giorgia is a wonderful host and the apartment is well equipped and located. If we are lucky enough to return to Venice, we’d absolutely stay here again.
Perfect location for walking to the tourist sites and wandering through residential areas. The walk from the San Stae vaporetto stop is only a few minutes.
Loved every day of this stay!
appartement bien placé ( accessible à pieds de la gare et du Parking Tronchetto ) , lumineux et calme . c'était notre deuxième séjour dans cet appartement et nous somme toujours très satisfait de la prestation. Cordialement.
Katia was there to great us with any questions. She recommended how to get around and where to dine. She was excellent. Property beautiful with everything you would need. Great stay ❤️
My only regret is that we didn’t have more time to stay in this beautiful apartment. Perfectly situated for exploring and dining, we were able to make the most of our short time in Venice. I would definitely recommend this lovely home away from home
The photos are exactly how the apartment is really like. Yes, there are the steep flight of stairs but far fewer than I had imagined. Check-In with Giorgia's friend Marta was easy & she had very good navigating & restaurant advice for us. The apartment was comfortable & we even had a chance to do some home cooking one evening! The place really added to our Venice experience. It was fun exploring neighborhoods away from the tourist crowds but it was also close enough so that if you wanted to you had access to all the major sites. Ciao!
She is the most wonderful host. Highly recommend taking the water taxi when leaving the airport. it’s a great experience and way to enter the city, no matter the added cost. We were met at a drop off point and escorted directly to the apartment, no stairs until you got to the front door. It’s four flights up but worth every step. Apartment had great rooftop views and listening to the bell towers added to the charm. Everything you need is within a 10 minute walk ie grocery. Quite neighborhood, not tourist traffic. Michelin Star restaurant around the corner that we stumbled upon but had already had dinner around the corner. We really enjoyed our stay. The host is very attentive, checking in to make sure everything was alright. Went above and beyond to give me luggage issues solutions. Highly recommend this place!
Apartment is in great location, away from the busy tourist areas. Easy water bus access, with close supermarket, bakery, gelato and outstanding restaurants. Giorgia was great to communicate with (she even booked us a water taxi for our arrival). Met at apartment by Alessia, who was helpful in every sense of the way. Looking forward to returning!
Great communication with Giorgiana. Had her friend Alessia meet us at the dock and escort us to the apartment. Great location, easy to get to Vaporetto, or a short adventurous walk to Rialto bridge. Great restaurants, bakeries, gelato nearby. Much less touristy than other areas. Just make sure you can negotiate three flights of narrow/steep stairs. Very charming place, would stay in this apartment again.
We loved this apartment! Georgia was very responsive through the entire process. We were met by Alessia, who was very nice!! She walked us through the details of the apartment and took the time to point out a few sights to see. The place was very clean and the photos are accurate. The air conditioning works great! Both actual bedrooms and the living room have their own units. The room off the living room does not have its own a/c unit, but the living room unit has no problem keeping the room cool if you keep the door open. The location is perfect. It is very easy to walk to the sites or catch a vaporetto. We loved that it was in a quiet and less touristy location. WiFi worked great. We would absolutely stay here again!
